Edmonton, Alberta--(Newsfile Corp. - January 26, 2026) - Canamera Energy Metals Corp. (CSE: EMET) (OTCQB: EMETF) (FSE: 4LF0) ("Canamera" or the "Company") reports that it has received from American Assay Laboratories the over-limit analysis for rock samples collected during the Company's prospecting program on the Iron Hills Project located in Gunnison County, Colorado, U.S.A.
Five of the 48 samples collected returned values that exceeded the initial detection limits for cerium (Ce), neodymium (Nd), and yttrium (Y). Follow-up analysis using sodium peroxide fusion has now returned quantitative results for these over-limit samples. Sample 47 returned the highest total rare earth oxide ("TREO") value of 6,557 ppm (0.66% TREO), including 2,336 ppm Nd. Sample 09 returned the highest heavy rare earth oxide ("HREO") value of 2,841 ppm, driven by 1,305 ppm Y. Factoring in these updated values, a total of six samples have now returned TREO values in excess of 3,000 ppm (0.3% TREO). Full results are presented in Table 1, with the re-assayed over-limit results highlighted in red. Sample locations are shown in Figure 1.
"We are encouraged by the elevated rare earth values obtained from our initial prospecting pass," stated Brad Brodeur, Chief Executive Officer. "Obtaining multiple quantitative values above 1,000 ppm with one as high as over 6000 ppm provides us with specific areas to focus on for follow-up sampling. Our immediate priority is to get boots on the ground and expand upon the success of our first pass."
The Company is currently reviewing options for an airborne magnetics, radiometrics, and EM survey over the Iron Hills Project. The Company plans to undertake follow-up sampling and analytical programs designed to accurately measure higher rare earth concentrations and evaluate the potential for REE mineralization.

The samples collected during the prospecting phase were classified as grab, where the entire rock is taken, or as selective, where the geologist focuses on a small portion of outcrop or subcrop to retrieve a sample. In either case, the nature of sampling may not be representative of underlying mineralization, nor may it represent the true grade or style of mineralization across the property. The Company is of the opinion that the strength, frequency, and elemental diversity of the over-limit results strongly support continued exploration.
Quality Assurance / Quality Control (QA/QC)
All samples were placed in labeled 3-mil polyethylene bags, sealed with cable ties, and stored under the direct supervision of Company personnel prior to delivery to American Assay Laboratories ("AAL") in Reno, Nevada. The original samples were analyzed using the IM-4AB61 analytical package, which includes a four-acid digestion followed by ICP analysis for 61 elements. Samples that exceeded the upper detection limit of 1,000 ppm for individual rare earth elements were reanalyzed using sodium peroxide fusion to obtain quantitative results.
The Company implemented an industry-standard QA/QC program consisting of the regular insertion of certified reference standards, blanks, and field duplicates into the sample stream, in addition to the internal quality control procedures employed by AAL. AAL is an independent, ISO-accredited laboratory and has no known relationship with the Company.
