FLSmidth signs agreement to divest its Cement business to become a pure-play supplier of technology and services to the mining industry
COMPANY ANNOUNCEMENT NO. 10-2025 FLSmidth & Co. A/S20 June 2025 Copenhagen, Denmark Today, FLSmidth announces that it has entered into an agreement to divest its Cement business to an affiliate of Pacific Avenue Capital Partners, a global private equity firm focused on carve-outs and other complex transactions, for a total initial consideration of EUR 75 million, corresponding to approximately DKK 550 million (Enterprise Value), plus a conditional deferred cash consideration of up to EUR 75 million, corresponding to approximately DKK 550 million. In early 2023, FLSmidth embarked on a strategic journey with the announcement of new pure-play strategies for its Mining and Cement businesses (ref. Company Announcement no. 2-2023). Since then, FLSmidth has simplified and rightsized both businesses to further strengthen their respective market positions, with a strategic focus on the core technologies and services required in the mining and cement industries. This has resulted in a significantly improved and more stable commercial and financial performance for both businesses. On 29 January 2024 (ref. Company Announcement no. 1-2024), FLSmidth announced its intention to explore the available divestment options for its Cement business, with the objectives of enabling the Cement business to maximise its full potential as well as to further strengthen our Mining business' market-leading position as a full flowsheet technology and service provider to the global mining industry. Chair of the Board of Directors of FLSmidth, Mads Nipper, comments: 'I am incredibly proud of what our Cement business has achieved in its more than 140-year long history with FLSmidth. We firmly believe that this divestment represents a pivotal step in unlocking the full potential for both our Mining and Cement businesses. Our Cement business is now well positioned for future success, with the flexibility to pursue its strategic ambitions and create exciting new opportunities for its employees to innovate and grow.' CEO of FLSmidth, Mikko Keto, comments: 'The divestment allows us to sharpen our focus on our core Mining business, positioning FLSmidth as a pure-play leader in the mining industry. With a clear and focused Mining strategy, we are confident that we are well positioned to drive long-term value for our customers, shareholders and other stakeholders and enhance our competitive position.' Jason Leach, Partner and Investment Committee Member at Pacific Avenue Capital Partners, comments: 'We are excited to acquire FLSmidth Cement, a global leader providing mission critical equipment and aftermarket solutions in the cement sector. The business has a rich history and strong brands including Fuller, Pfister, and Ventomatic. We believe that cement will continue to play a crucial role in global economic development, and that FLSmidth Cement's product innovation will play an important role in the decarbonisation of the industry'. Chris Sznewajs, Founder and Managing Partner, at Pacific Avenue Capital Partners, comments: 'We are honoured to be the trusted partner for FLSmidth on this highly complex transaction. We strive to be the buyer of choice for corporate sellers, with the ability to seamlessly complete cross-border transactions. The Cement division is an excellent fit within our portfolio given our focus on acquiring market leading companies. We are impressed with the Company's ability to deliver innovative, mission-critical solutions to its longstanding customers, and look forward to providing the necessary resources to support continued growth and value creation in partnership with management.' The transaction includes all related employees, assets, intellectual property and technology. Certain legacy contracts and the Air Pollution Control (APC) asset will be retained by FLSmidth with immaterial impact on the continuing Mining business. The transaction is expected to close during the second half 2025, subject to customary closing conditions, including regulatory approval from the relevant implications and outlookThe net cash proceeds from the divestment are subject to final adjustments, debt-like items and transaction costs. It is expected that after these adjustments the result is a limited net cash gain from the transaction. Further, the transaction includes a deferred cash consideration of up to EUR 75 million, or approximately DKK 550 million, which is conditional upon the achievement of certain undisclosed objectives. As a consequence of the transaction, FLSmidth Cement will be classified as held-for-sale and discontinued operations in the Q2 2025 Interim Financial Report. As a result of the transaction, a fair value adjustment of asset and liabilities will result in an impairment charge of approximately DKK 700 million with no cash impact, which will be accounted for in the profit/(loss) from discontinued operations in the Q2 2025 Interim Financial Report. FLSmidth's financial guidance for the full year 2025 does not include discontinued operations and will thus be adjusted to only reflect the financial outlook for the Mining business. The financial guidance for the full year 2025 for the Mining business is unchanged (ref. Company Announcement no. 8-2025). FLSmidth thus expects revenue for the full year 2025 of DKK ~15.0 billion and an Adjusted EBITA margin in the range of 14.0% to 14.5%. The Adjusted EBITA margin excludes transformation and separation costs of around DKK 200m for the full year 2025. In addition, and as a consequence of the transaction, the long-term financial target for FLSmidth Cement of an EBITA margin of ~8% for the full year 2026 is withdrawn. The long-term financial target for the Mining business of an EBITA margin of 13-15% for the full year 2026 remains unchanged (ref. Company Announcement no. 2-2023). Further impact of the transactions will be communicated in connection with the release of FLSmidth's Q2 2025 Interim Financial Report on 20 August 2025. Until closing of the transactions, FLSmidth Cement will continue to execute on its GREEN'26 strategy. Further, during the period to closing of the transactions and for a limited time thereafter, FLSmidth will continue to provide support and services to FLSmidth call On 20 June 2025 at 13.30 CEST, Mr. Mikko Keto (CEO) and Mr. Roland M. Andersen (CFO) will host a conference call to comment on this announcement. The presentation will be followed by a short Q&A session. The presentation will be held in English.

CanAlaska Announces Results from Property-Wide Airborne Surveys on 16,000 Hectare Frontier Project
Multiple Priority Exploration Target Zones Identified, Stock Options Granted Saskatoon, Canada--(Newsfile Corp. - June 19, 2025) - CanAlaska Uranium Ltd. (TSXV: CVV) (OTCQX: CVVUF) (FSE: DH7) (" CanAlaska" or the " Company") is pleased to announce results from a series of property-wide airborne geophysical surveys completed on its 100%-owned Frontier Project (the "Project"). The results from high-resolution helicopter-borne Versatile Time Domian Electromagnetic (VTEM Plus), horizontal magnetic gradient, and radiometric surveys identified several exploration target zones on the Project. The purpose of the surveys was to identify and prioritize basement conductors, characterize lithological and alteration variations, refine areas of interest for ground prospecting, and map the structural setting of the project to support future drill targets. The Project is located in the northeastern Athabasca Basin approximately 30 kilometres northeast of the McClean Lake mill complex and Roughrider uranium deposit, and 35 kilometres north of Cameco's Eagle Point uranium mine (Figure 1). To view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit: Frontier Airborne Survey Results The Frontier project is located five kilometres northeast of the present-day Athabasca Basin edge. Compilation work on the project has highlighted a prominent 25-kilometre-long northeast trending magnetic low corridor, termed here as the Roughrider Mineralized Corridor ("RMC"). This regional-scale corridor, which continues off property to the southwest, hosts multiple uranium deposits and showings, including Roughrider, Midwest, J Zone, Dawn Lake, Moonlight, Osprey, and the McClean Lake mine and mill complex. Figure 2 – Frontier Project Airborne Survey Target Areas To view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit: The recently completed VTEM Plus survey consisted of 931 line-km's of helicopter-borne surveying at a 200 metre line spacing across the Project. This was followed by a high-resolution magnetics and radiometrics survey that consisted of 3,739 line-km's of helicopter-borne surveying at 50 metre line spacing across the Project. The surveys were conducted by Geotech Ltd. of Aurora, Ontario and survey management and processing were conducted by Condor Consulting, Inc. Upon completion, the results of the airborne surveys were processed using 3D magnetic inversions and subsequently processed through a GeoInterp data analysis. GeoInterp is a form of data analysis to extract lithostratigraphic and structural elements from magnetic data. As a result of data processing and the GeoInterp analysis, a series of target zones were identified on the Frontier Project (Figure 2). The target zones are concentrated around large-scale north to northwest trending faults that are associated with shorter strike length faults and conductors. The highest priority target zones are those where magnetic low structural corridors are associated with cross-cutting fault features. The Point Lake Anomaly, a historical lake sediment sample collected in the early 1990's by the Geological Survey of Canada that returned 34.7 ppm uranium associated with elevated cobalt, copper, molybdenum, and nickel, is located along one of the main north-south trending features within the central target area. The airborne surveys completed on the Frontier Project represent a critical step in the Company's exploration strategy looking for tier 1 basement-hosted uranium deposits. The Company has deliberately generated a strategic land portfolio in the infrastructure-rich northeastern Athabasca Basin region along corridors that show geological and structural similarities to the Arrow and Eagle Point basement-hosted uranium deposits. The Company is actively seeking Joint Venture partners to move the Project to the next exploration stage. CanAlaska CEO, Cory Belyk, comments, "The Frontier project work has generated some very compelling basement-hosted uranium exploration targets along the prolific Roughrider Mineralized Corridor. The CanAlaska team will actively seek exploration partners to help move the Frontier project toward discovery. With the uranium market continuing to strengthen and the baseline market fundamentals stronger than ever, we believe the Frontier project should garner considerable interest from explorers looking for a large and drill-ready project in the infrastructure-rich northeastern Athabasca Basin." Other News The Company also announces that it has granted incentive stock options to certain directors, officers, employees and consultants of the Company to purchase up to an aggregate of 6,060,000 common shares of the Company pursuant to CanAlaska's omnibus equity incentive plan. These options are exercisable for a period of three years at a price of $0.88 per share. Pursuant to TSX Venture Exchange (" TSXV") policies, 50,000 of these options granted to an investor relations consultant (see below) will vest as to 25% on each of 3, 6, 9 and 12 months from their date of grant. All other options are fully vested. The Company also announces that it has extended the term of its investor relations letter agreement with Rayleigh Capital Ltd. (" Rayleigh Capital") from December 31, 2024 to December 31, 2025, subject to approval from the TSXV (refer to the Company's news release of July 28, 2023). Either party is permitted to terminate the extended agreement upon providing the other party with 60 days' prior written notice of termination. Rayleigh Capital focuses on global investor relations for junior and small cap companies specializing at exposing companies to a wide audience of investment professionals. Under the extended agreement, commencing January 1, 2025, the Company will pay $8,500 per month (plus GST) to Rayleigh Capital to provide liaison, coordination, corporate growth strategy, communications and other services to CanAlaska. The fee to be paid by the Company to Rayleigh Capital under the agreement is for services only. The Company and Rayleigh Capital act at arm's length. Rayleigh Capital has no present interest, directly or indirectly, in the Company or its securities, except that it has today been granted stock options pursuant to CanAlaska's omnibus equity incentive plan.

The recent results are from infill drilling on the upper main vein, which will likely be scheduled into the early part of the potential production profile of the Project. Recent results include significant intersections of: 9.1m @ 4.4% CuEq (4.1% Cu, 0.3g/t Au & 14.4g/t Ag) (CB-25-118); Including 3.4m @ 7.6% CuEq (7.0% Cu, 0.4g/t Au & 24.9g/t Ag); 5.8m @ 5.3% CuEq (4.4% Cu, 0.8g/t Au & 28.1g/t Ag) (CB-25-122); 2.8m @ 5.0% CuEq (4.6% Cu, 0.4g/t Au & 14.6g/t Ag) (CB-25-119); and 2.8m @ 4.1% CuEq (3.8% Cu, 0.2g/t Au & 16.3g/t Ag) (CB-25-120). These results will be incorporated in the upcoming Mineral Resource update as Cygnus seeks to convert Inferred Resources to Indicated Resources, with recent results reconciling well against the current block model. The Mineral Resource upgrade at Corner Bay is being completed in conjunction with new resource growth prospects such as Golden Eye. These are aimed at growing the current global resource, which stands at a Measured and Indicated Resource of 3.6Mt at 3% CuEq and Inferred Resources of 7.2Mt at 3.8% CuEq.1 The global Mineral Resource update for the Project is expected in Q3 2025, targeting both resource growth and conversion. With work on the resource well advanced, Cygnus is also progressing the Project along the pathway to development, in line with its value creation strategy. This work includes early geotechnical studies across potential development sites as well as advancing long-lead permitting items. This work aims to streamline and accelerate future study work. The Chibougamau area has well-established infrastructure giving the Project a significant head start as a copper-gold development opportunity. This infrastructure includes a 900,000tpa processing facility, local mining town, sealed highway, airport, regional rail infrastructure and 25kV hydro power to the processing site.

The Company confirms that the supporting information included in the original announcement continues to apply and has not materially changed, notwithstanding the clarification announcement released by Cygnus on 28 January 2025 ('Clarification'). Cygnus confirms that (notwithstanding the Clarification) it is not aware of any new information or data that materially affects the information included in the original announcement and that all material assumptions and technical parameters underpinning the estimates in the original announcement continue to apply and have not materially changed. Cygnus confirms that it is not in possession of any new information or data that materially impacts on the reliability of the estimates or Cygnus' ability to verify the foreign estimates as mineral resources in accordance with the JORC Code. The Company confirms that the form and context in which the Competent Persons' findings are presented have not been materially modified from the original market announcement. The information in this announcement that relates to previously reported Exploration Results at the Company's projects has been previously released by Cygnus in ASX Announcements as noted in the text and End Notes. Cygnus is not aware of any new information or data that materially affects the information in these announcements. The Company confirms that the form and context in which the Competent Persons' findings are presented have not been materially modified from the original market announcements. Individual grades for the metals included in the metal equivalents calculation for the foreign estimate are in Appendix C of this release. Metal equivalents for the foreign estimate of mineralisation have been calculated at a copper price of US$8,750/t, gold price of US$2,350/oz, with copper equivalents calculated based on the formula CuEq (%) = Cu(%) + (Au (g/t) x 0.77258). Individual grades for the metals included in the metal equivalents calculation for the exploration results are in Appendices A and B of this release. Metal equivalents for exploration results have been calculated at a copper price of US$8,750/t, gold price of US$2,350/oz and silver price of US$25/oz. Copper equivalents are calculated based on the formula CuEq(%) = Cu(%) + (Au(g/t) x 0.77258)+(Ag(g/t) x 0.00822). Gold equivalents are calculated based on the formula AuEq(g/t) = Au(g/t) +(Cu(%) x 1.29436)+(Ag(g/t) x 0.01064). Metallurgical recovery factors have been applied to the metal equivalents calculations, with copper metallurgical recovery assumed at 95% and precious metal (gold and silver) metallurgical recovery assumed at 85% based upon historical production at the Chibougamau Processing Facility, and the metallurgical results contained in Cygnus' announcement dated 28 January 2025.

These examples should not be taken as limiting the broad meaning of sampling. All drilling conducted by Cygnus Metals at the Chibougamau Project was completed under the supervision of a registered professional geologist as a Qualified Person (QP) who is responsible and accountable for the planning, execution, and supervision of all exploration activity as well as the implementation of quality assurance programs and reporting. All Cygnus drilling reported is NQ size (47.8 mm diameter). Include reference to measures taken to ensure sample representativity and the appropriate calibration of any measurement tools or systems used. All sample collection, core logging, and specific gravity determinations were completed by Cygnus Metals under the supervision of a professionally qualified registered geologist. NQ core was marked for splitting during logging and is sawn using a diamond core saw with a mounted jig to assure the core is cut lengthwise into equal halves. Half of the cut core is placed in clean individual plastic bags with the appropriate sample tag. QA/QC is done in-house by Cygnus Metals geologists with oversight from the Senior Geologist. The check samples (blanks and standards – 4% of total samples with another 2% of core duplicates taken on half split core) that were inserted into the sample batches are verified against their certified values and are deemed a pass if they are within 3 standard deviations of the certified value. The duplicates are evaluated against each other to determine mineralization distribution (nugget). If there are large discrepancies in the check samples, then the entire batch is requested to be re-assayed. The samples are then placed in bags for shipment to the offsite laboratory's facility. The remaining half of the core is retained and incorporated into Cygnus's secure, core library located on the property. Aspects of the determination of mineralisation that are Material to the Public cases where 'industry standard' work has been done this would be relatively simple (eg 'reverse circulation drilling was used to obtain 1 m samples from which 3 kg was pulverised to produce a 30 g charge for fire assay'). In other cases more explanation may be required, such as where there is coarse gold that has inherent sampling problems. Unusual commodities or mineralisation types (eg submarine nodules) may warrant disclosure of detailed information. Industry standard sampling practices were used with sample lengths ranging from 0.3 m to 1.0 m and respected geological contacts. Sample tags were placed at the beginning of each sample interval and the tag numbers were recorded in an MS Excel database. Sampling practice is considered to be appropriate to the geology and style of mineralisation. Drilling techniques Drill type (eg core, reverse circulation, open-hole hammer, rotary air blast, auger, Bangka, sonic, etc) and details (eg core diameter, triple or standard tube, depth of diamond tails, face-sampling bit or other type, whether core is oriented and if so, by what method, etc). Diamond core was drilled using surface diamond rigs with industry recognised contractors Miikan Drilling. Miikan is a joint venture between Chibougamau Diamond Drilling Ltd., the First Nations community of Ouje-Bougoumou and the First Nations community of Mistissini both located in the Eeyou Istchee territory. Drilling was conducted using NQ core size. Directional surveys have been taken at 50m intervals. Drill sample recovery Method of recording and assessing core and chip sample recoveries and results taken to maximise sample recovery and ensure representative nature of the a relationship exists between sample recovery and grade and whether sample bias may have occurred due to preferential loss/gain of fine/coarse material. Diamond core recovery was measured for each run and calculated as a percentage of the drilled interval. Overall, the core recoveries are excellent in the Chibougamau area. As a result, no bias exists. Logging Whether core and chip samples have been geologically and geotechnically logged to a level of detail to support appropriate Mineral Resource estimation, mining studies and metallurgical studies. All core was geologically and geotechnically logged. Lithology, veining, alteration and mineralisation are recorded in multiple tables of the drillhole database. Whether logging is qualitative or quantitative in nature. Core (or costean, channel, etc) photography. Geological logging of core is qualitative and descriptive in nature. The total length and percentage of the relevant intersections logged. 100% of the core has been logged. Sub-sampling techniques and sample preparation If core, whether cut or sawn and whether quarter, half or all core non-core, whether riffled, tube sampled, rotary split, etc and whether sampled wet or all sample types, the nature, quality and appropriateness of the sample preparation control procedures adopted for all sub-sampling stages to maximise representivity of taken to ensure that the sampling is representative of the in-situ material collected, including for instance results for field duplicate/second-half sample sizes are appropriate to the grain size of the material being sampled. The NQ diameter the core was sawn in half following a sample cutting line determined by geologists during logging and submitted for analysis on nominal 1m intervals or defined by geological boundaries determined by the logging geologist. Each core sample is assigned a tag with a unique identifying number. Sample lengths are typically one metre but can be depending on zone mineralogy and boundaries. This sampling technique is industry standard and deemed appropriate. Sample sizes are considered appropriate to grain size of the materials being sampled. Quality of assay data and laboratory tests The nature, quality and appropriateness of the assaying and laboratory procedures used and whether the technique is considered partial or total. Sample (NQ size half core) preparation and fire assay analysis were done at Bureau Veritas Commodities Canada Ltd ('BV') in Timmins, Ontario, and ICP-ES multi-elements analysis was done at BV in Vancouver, B.C. Samples were weighed, dried, crushed to 70% passing 2 mm, split to 250 g, and pulverized to 85% passing 75 µm. Samples are fire assayed for gold (Au) (50 g) and multi-acid digestion ICP-ES finish, for 23 elements (including key elements Ag, Cu, Mo). Samples with visible gold or likely to have gold grains are analysed with metallic screen fire assay. Samples assaying >10.0 g/t Au are re-analysed with a gravimetric finish using a 50 g charge. Samples assaying >10% Cu are re-analysed with a sodium peroxide fusion with ICP-ES analysis using a 0.25 g charge. For geophysical tools, spectrometers, handheld XRF instruments, etc, the parameters used in determining the analysis including instrument make and model, reading times, calibrations factors applied and their derivation, etc. None used. Nature of quality control procedures adopted (eg standards, blanks, duplicates, external laboratory checks) and whether acceptable levels of accuracy (i.e. lack of bias) and precision have been established. At Bureau Veritas, laboratory QC procedures involve the use of internal certified reference material as assay standards, along with blanks, duplicates and replicates. Verification of sampling and assaying The verification of significant intersections by either independent or alternative company personnel. Verification of sampling was made by Cygnus Metals and other professional consultant geologists. The use of twinned holes. No hole is twinned. Documentation of primary data, data entry procedures, data verification, data storage (physical and electronic) protocols. All logging data was completed, core marked up, logging and sampling data was entered directly into the database. The logged data is stored on the site server directly. Discuss any adjustment to assay data. There was no adjustment to the assay data. Location of data points Accuracy and quality of surveys used to locate drill holes (collar and down-hole surveys), trenches, mine workings and other locations used in Mineral Resource estimation. The location of the drill holes and the aiming points for the orientation of the drill holes were indicated on the ground using identified stakes. The stakes marking the location of the drillholes were set up and located with a Garmin GPS model 'GPSmap 62s' (4m accuracy). Surveys are collected using a Reflex EZ-Shot® single-shot electronic instrument with readings collected at intervals of approximately every 30 m downhole plus a reading at the bottom of the hole. Specification of the grid system used. The grid system used is UTM NAD83 (Zone 18). Quality and adequacy of topographic control. A Digital Terrane Model (DTM) has been used to accurately plot the vertical position of the holes, which is considered to provide an adequate level of topographic control. Data spacing and distribution Data spacing for reporting of Exploration Results. The drill spacing for recent drilling is considered appropriate for this type of exploration. Due to the historic nature and mix of underground and surface drilling the drill hole spacing for historic drill results is highly variable. Whether the data spacing and distribution is sufficient to establish the degree of geological and grade continuity appropriate for the Mineral Resource and Ore Reserve estimation procedure(s) and classifications applied. No resource estimation is made. Whether sample compositing has been applied. No sample compositing has been applied. Orientation of data in relation to geological structure Whether the orientation of sampling achieves unbiased sampling of possible structures and the extent to which this is known, considering the deposit type. Recent drilling is orientated approximately at right angles to the currently interpreted strike of the known interpreted mineralisation. Due to the historic nature of the drilling the drill hole orientation for historic drill results is highly variable. If the relationship between the drilling orientation and the orientation of key mineralised structures is considered to have introduced a sampling bias, this should be assessed and reported if material. No bias is considered to have been introduced by the existing sampling orientation. Sample security The measures taken to ensure sample security. Core was placed in wooden core boxes close to the drill rig by the drilling contractor. The core was collected daily by the drilling contractor and delivered to the secure core logging facility. Access to the core logging facility is limited to Cygnus employees or designates. Audits or reviews The results of any audits or reviews of sampling techniques and data. No audits or reviews of sampling techniques or data have been undertaken, therefore information on audits or reviews is not yet available.

Exploration done by other parties Acknowledgment and appraisal of exploration by other parties. The Chibougamau Copper and Gold project comprising Corner Bay, Devlin, Cedar Bay and Joe Mann has seen an extensive exploration history dating back to the early 1900s. The Preliminary Economic Assessment (as referred to in the Company's announcement of 15 October 2024) provides a detailed history of the exploration activities undertaken by previous explorers. Corner Bay was first identified as a prospect in 1956 1956 – 1972 eight drilling programs totalling 1,463 m and various geophysical and electromagnetic (EM) surveys 1973 – 1981 Riocanex and Flanagan McAdam: ground geophysical surveys and 43 diamond drill holes 1982 – 1984 Riocanex and Corner Bay Exploration: 38 drill holes and metallurgical test work 1988 – 1991 Corner Bay Exploration: diamond drilling, geophysical surveys and geological characterisation with initial MRE 1992 – 1994 SOQUEM optioned and acquired a 30% interest, and completed diamond drilling 1994 Explorations Cache Inc and Resources MSV Inc: diamond drilling 2004 – 2006 GéoNova and MSV: 98 diamond drill holes and first Technical Report on the Corner Bay project reporting a MRE 2007 – 2009 Campbell: diamond drilling and bulk sample 2012 - 2019 CBAY / AmAuCu: diamond drilling and MRE Devlin identified in 1972 by airborne survey flown by the MERN 1979 – 1981 diamond drilling, geophysical surveys 1981 development commenced Joe Mann identified in 1950 with the commencement of mining activities occurring in 1956 The Joe Mann mine operated underground during three different periods from 1956 to 2007 In July 2012, Resources Jessie acquired the Joe Mann mine property, but conducted only surface exploration work Cedar Bay was discovered prior to 1927 by Chibougamau McKenzie Mines Ltd From initial discovery to 2013 various surface and underground drilling campaigns and geophysical surveys undertaken by various companies Colline was first discovered with mapping and sampling and then drilled in the 1950s with follow up drilling in 1955. In the 1950s a shaft was sunk but the deposit was never mined The deposit was later tested with three drill holes and six regional drill holes throughout two drilling campaigns in 1984 and 1986/87 Exploration at Colline has been halted historically with the discovery of and focus on other deposits in the region Golden Eye (previously known as Dore Ramp) was drilled in a few different phases from 1984 to 1992. A total of 47 drill holes from surface are reported during that period A double ramp of approximately 1 kilometre was excavated in 1991-92 to a vertical depth of 160 meters Underground drilling campaign of 46 holes totalling 10,200 meters tested the deposit mainly to a depth of 240 meters (only five holes tested the deposit between 300 and 600 meters) Geology Deposit type, geological setting and style of mineralisation. Corner Bay and Devlin are located at the northeastern extremity of the Abitibi subprovince in the Superior province of the Canadian Shield and are examples of Chibougamau-type copper-gold deposits. The Abitibi subprovince is considered as one of the largest and best-preserved greenstone belts in the world and hosts numerous gold and base metal deposits. The Corner Bay deposit is located on the southern flank of the Doré Lake Complex (DLC). It is hosted by a N 15° trending shear zone more or less continuous with a strong 75° to 85° dip towards the west. The host anorthosite rock is sheared and sericitized over widths of 2 m to 25 m. The deposit is cut by a diabase dyke and is limited to the north by a fault structure and to the south by the LaChib deformation zone. The Corner Bay deposit consists of three main mineralized lodes (subparallel Main Lode 1 and Main Lode 2 above the dyke, and Main Lode below the dyke that make up the bulk of the deposit. The Corner Bay deposit has been traced over a strike length to over 1,100 m to a depth of 1,350 m and remains open at depth. The mineralization is characterized by veins and/or lenses of massive to semi-massive sulphides associated with a brecciated to locally massive quartz-calcite material. The sulphide assemblage is composed of chalcopyrite, pyrite, and pyrrhotite with lesser amounts of molybdenite and sphalerite. Late remobilized quartz-chalcopyrite-pyrite veins occur in a wide halo around the main mineralization zones. Devlin is a flat-lying, copper-rich lodes-hosted deposit in a polygenic igneous breccia that is less than 100 m from the surface. The tabular bodies have been modelled as four nearly horizontal lodes: a more continuous lower zone and three smaller lodes comprising the upper zone. Mineralization is reflected as a fracture zone often composed of two or more sulphide-quartz lodes and stringers. Thickness of the mineralized zones range from 0.5 m to 4.4 m. It has been diluted during modelling to reflect a minimum mining height of 1.8 m. The Joe Mann deposit is characterized by east-west striking shear hosted lodes that extend beyond 1,000 m vertically with mineralization identified over a 3 km strike length. These shear zones form part of the Opawica-Guercheville deformation zone, a major deformation corridor cutting the mafic volcanic rocks of the Obatogamau Formation in the north part of the Caopatina Segment. The gabbro sill hosts the Main Zone and the West Zone at the mine, while the South Zone is found in the rhyolite. These three subvertical E-W (N275°/85°) ductile-brittle shear zones are sub-parallel to stratigraphy and to one another, with up to 140 m to 170 m of separation between them. These shear zones are hosted within a stratigraphic package composed of iron-magnesium (Fe-Mg) carbonate and sericite altered gabbro sills, sheared basalts, and intermediate to felsic tuffs intruded by various felsic intrusions. The Joe Mann gold mineralization is hosted by decimetre scale quartz-carbonate lodes (Dion and Guha 1988). The lodes are mineralized with pyrite, pyrrhotite, and chalcopyrite disposed in lens and lodelets parallel to schistosity, and occasionally visible gold. There are some other minor, mineralized structures, e.g., North and South-South Zones, with limited vertical and horizontal extensions. The Cedar Bay deposit is hosted by a sheared and altered gabbroic-anorthosite of the DLC. The meta-anorthosites are typically comprised of 70% to 90% plagioclase, which has been heavily altered to epidote and albite. The Cedar Bay deposit generally has a northwest strike and dips steeply to the northeast. The gold-copper sulphide veins average approximately 1.5 m in width and are tens to hundreds of metres in strike length. The individual mineralization lenses have approximately 3:1 down dip to along strike anisotropies. The veins are comprised of pyrite and chalcopyrite with some gold and minor sphalerite. The main alteration minerals are chlorite, quartz, and carbonates. Locally, pyrrhotite dominates the vein mineral assemblage. Pyrrhotite has a very heterogeneous distribution within the mineralization. Drill hole Information A summary of all information material to the understanding of the exploration results including a tabulation of the following information for all Material drill holes: easting and northing of the drill hole collar elevation or RL (Reduced Level – elevation above sea level in metres) of the drill hole collar dip and azimuth of the hole down hole length and interception depth hole length. If the exclusion of this information is justified on the basis that the information is not Material and this exclusion does not detract from the understanding of the report, the Competent Person should clearly explain why this is the case. All requisite drill hole information is tabulated elsewhere in this release. Refer Appendices A and B of the body text. Data aggregation methods In reporting Exploration Results, weighting averaging techniques, maximum and/or minimum grade truncations (eg cutting of high grades) and cut-off grades are usually Material and should be stated. For recent results, drill hole intersections are reported above a lower cut-off grade of 1% CuEq over greater than 1m width. Where aggregate intercepts incorporate short lengths of high-grade results and longer lengths of low-grade results, the procedure used for such aggregation should be stated and some typical examples of such aggregations should be shown in detail. A maximum of 1m internal waste was allowed. The assumptions used for any reporting of metal equivalent values should be clearly stated. Individual grades for the metals included in the metal equivalents calculation for the exploration results are in Appendices A and B of this release. Metal equivalents for exploration results have been calculated at a copper price of US$8,750/t, gold price of US$2,350/oz and silver price of US$25/oz. Copper equivalents are calculated based on the formula CuEq(%) = Cu(%) + (Au(g/t) x 0.77258)+(Ag(g/t) x 0.00822). Gold equivalents are calculated based on the formula AuEq(g/t) = Au(g/t) + (Cu(%) x 1.29436) + (Ag(g/t) x 0.01064). Metallurgical recovery factors have been applied to the metal equivalents calculations, with copper metallurgical recovery assumed at 95% and precious metal (gold and silver) metallurgical recovery assumed at 85% based upon historical production at the Chibougamau Processing Facility, and the metallurgical results contained in Cygnus' announcement dated 28 January 2025. It is the Company's view that all elements in the metal equivalent calculations have a reasonable potential to be recovered and sold. Relationship between mineralisation widths and intercept lengths These relationships are particularly important in the reporting of Exploration the geometry of the mineralisation with respect to the drill hole angle is known, its nature should be it is not known and only the down hole lengths are reported, there should be a clear statement to this effect (eg 'down hole length, true width not known'). All intersections reported in the body of this release are down hole. For recent drill holes, holes are drilled as close to orthogonal to the plane of the mineralized lodes as possible. True width is estimated to be about 80% of the downhole drill intersection. Diagrams Appropriate maps and sections (with scales) and tabulations of intercepts should be included for any significant discovery being reported. These should include,but not be limited to a plan view of drill hole collar locations and appropriate sectional views. Refer Figure 3 Plan view of recent infill drilling at Corner BayBalanced reporting Where comprehensive reporting of all Exploration Results is not practicable, representative reporting of both low and high grades and/or widths should be practiced to avoid misleading reporting of Exploration Results. Reported results from infill drilling at Corner Bay includes 8 holes for 5,000m. Reported results from exploration drilling at Corner Bay includes 10 holes for 5,541m. All infill and exploration holes are included in Appendices A and B with all results greater than 1% CuEq over greater than 1m width reported. Other substantive exploration data Other exploration data, if meaningful and material, should be reported including (but not limited to): geological observations; geophysical survey results; geochemical survey results; bulk samples – size and method of treatment; metallurgical test results; bulk density, groundwater, geotechnical and rock characteristics; potential deleterious or contaminating substances. There is no other substantive exploration data. Further work The nature and scale of planned further work (eg tests for lateral extensions or depth extensions or large-scale step-out drilling).Diagrams clearly highlighting the areas of possible extensions, including the main geological interpretations and future drilling areas, provided this information is not commercially sensitive. The Company plans to conduct drill testing of additional mineralisation as well as step out drilling of existing lodes. More information is presented in the body of this report. Diagrams in the main body of this release show areas of possible resource extension on existing lodes. The Company continues to identify and assess multiple other target areas within the property boundary for additional resources. Figure 3: Plan view of recent infill drilling at Corner Bay Figures accompanying this announcement are available at: _____________1 The estimate of mineralisation at the Chibougamau Project is a foreign estimate prepared in accordance with CIM Standards and is not reported in accordance with the JORC Code. A competent person has not done sufficient work to classify the foreign estimate as a mineral resource in accordance with the JORC Code, and it is uncertain that following evaluation and/or further exploration work that the foreign estimate will be able to be reported as a mineral resource or ore reserve in accordance with the JORC Code.
