The Company previously completed two tranches of the Offering on March 13, 2026, and March 18, 2026, respectively, pursuant to which the Company issued 833,333 of its common shares ("Common Shares") for gross proceeds of approximately $250,000 (the "Tranches").

The Company's new management (see the Company's press release dated May 1, 2026) is working towards completing the remaining $4,250,000 portion of the Offering (the "Remaining Offering"), which was not completed by May 7, 2026, the deadline specified in the Toronto Stock Exchange's ("TSX") conditional approval letter respecting the Offering.
The Remaining Offering is characterized by the TSX as a new offering; however, it continues to consist of a best efforts non-brokered private placement financing of up to 14,166,666 Common Shares at a price of $0.30 per Common Share for gross proceeds of up to $4,250,000.
Closing of the Remaining Offering is expected to occur in early June 2026.

Finder's fees may be paid to eligible finders in accordance with the policies of the TSX consisting of a cash commission equal to up to 7% of the gross proceeds raised under the Remaining Offering. The Company intends to use the net proceeds of the Remaining Offering to satisfy all or a portion of the purchase price payable in connection with a proposed transaction to acquire the remaining 52% of a nickel, zinc, and lead project in Poland that is not already owned by the issuer (the "Transaction"), provided all applicable closing conditions have been satisfied or otherwise duly waived, as well as to fund exploration expenditures and other expenses related to its properties.
