EDGE COPPER ANNOUNCES EARLY EXERCISE OF WARRANTS BY CEO FOR C$3.9 MILLION

Edge Copper Corp.'s chair and chief executive officer, Gil Clausen, has elected to early exercise 6.5 million warrants at an exercise price of 60 cents per warrant generating gross proceeds of $3.9-million to the company. Each warrant entitles Mr. Clausen to acquire one Edge Copper common share. The warrants were previously issued in connection with the company's October, 2025, financing in connection with the acquisition of the Zonia copper project and were scheduled to expire on April 30, 2027. The early exercise provides immediate non-dilutive capital and further strengthens the company's balance sheet. The proceeds will be for supporting continuing exploration, project advancement activities and general corporate purposes. With the exercise of these warrants, Mr. Clausen now holds 26,221,198 Edge Copper shares, or approximately 20.5 per cent of Edge Copper's issued and outstanding common shares.
