CANAMERA ENERGY METALS FILES INDEPENDENT TECHNICAL REPORT ON SCHRYBURT LAKE RECOMMENDING A C$1.5 MILLION PHASE 1 PROGRAM TARGETING REE-NIOBIUM MINERALIZATION AT FIVE PRIORITY TARGETS

Canamera Energy Metals Corp. has filed an independent National Instrument 43-101 -- Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects (NI 43-101) technical report on the Schryburt Lake rare-earth element (REE) and niobium project located in the Patricia mining division of Northwestern Ontario, which technical report recommends a robust phase 1 exploration program at the project, including the recommendation for a 1,500-metre, nine-hole diamond drilling program across multiple priority target areas at the Schryburt Lake carbonatite complex (the SLCC). The technical report -- effective April 15, 2026, authored by J. Garry Clark, PGeo, of Clark Exploration Consulting Inc., an independent qualified person as defined under National Instrument 43-101, and available under the company's profile on SEDAR+ -- provides the first comprehensive technical assessment of the project under Canamera's option.

"The technical report gives Canamera a rigorous, independently reviewed foundation for advancing Schryburt Lake -- the first under our option -- and recommends a clearly defined phase 1 drill program," said Brad Brodeur, chief executive officer of Canamera Energy Metals. "Schryburt Lake is a rare and genuinely underexplored carbonatite system in one of Canada's most active mining districts, and we believe it offers our shareholders the potential of differentiated exposure to permanent-magnet rare earths and niobium at a time of intense strategic focus on Western critical mineral supply chains."

Project overview

The project is located approximately 135 kilometres north-northeast of Pickle Lake, Ont., and approximately 50 kilometres east of Orla Mining Ltd.'s producing Musselwhite mine, within the Patricia mining division, with road access to within 30 kilometres of the project. The project comprises 252 unpatented single-cell mining claims covering 4,947 hectares, registered 100-per-cent in the name of Dixon Metals (Ontario) Corp., a wholly owned subsidiary of Bindi Metals Ltd. (Australian Securities Exchange: BIM), and is subject to a 1.0-per-cent net smelter return royalty payable to the original vendor. Canamera has the right to earn up to a 90-per-cent interest in the project pursuant to a joint venture option agreement with Bindi (see company's news release dated Nov. 14, 2025, and the technical report).

Geological setting

The SLCC is a Mesoproterozoic carbonatite intrusion dated at approximately 1,145 million years ago (Sage, 1988) emplaced into Neoarchean gneisses of the Schade Lake gneissic complex, Island Lake domain, North Caribou superterrane. It is composed predominantly of calcite carbonatite (sovite) and silicocarbonatite, with minor dolomite carbonatite, magnetitite and apatite-rich carbonatite, with a mapped geological diameter of approximately 3.3 kilometres and an aeromagnetic expression extending to approximately five kilometres.

Principal REE mineralogy comprises ancylite (Ce) and carbocernaite, confirmed by powder X-ray diffraction and SEM-EDS analysis. Neodymium and praseodymium (NdPr) ratios reported in the technical report range from 17 per cent to 26 per cent across 2023 rock samples, with historical 1977 RC drill intervals reporting ratios up to 34 per cent at drill hole SC-1. NdPr are the primary rare-earth elements used in permanent magnets for electric vehicles, wind turbines and other clean-energy applications.

Priority target areas

The technical report defines four flagship priority target areas at Schryburt Lake -- Blue Jay, Goldfinch, Starling and Blackbird, as previously disclosed in the company's news release dated Jan. 20, 2026. A fifth target, Hummingbird, has been identified in the technical report as an additional exploration target and may be evaluated during phase 1 subject to the findings of the independent geophysical review. The targets are supported by 2023 surface rock-chip sampling, airborne radiometric and biogeochemical surveys, and 3-D magnetic inversion modelling, with highlights summarized in the attached table.

Geophysical modelling

A 3-D magnetic inversion model completed by Resource Potentials in 2023 has defined multiple pipe-like magnetic anomalies within and surrounding the SLCC, interpreted by the independent QP (qualified person) as late-stage dikes or REE-Nb-enriched phases within the carbonatite complex, with modelled depth extents providing substantial vertical exploration potential across the target set. Supporting data sets include approximately 500 line kilometres of helicopter-borne magnetic and radiometric coverage flown by Axiom Exploration in June, 2023, at 50-metre line spacing, and a complementary biogeochemical survey comprising 130 black spruce bark samples completed by Dixon Metals over the same period.

Recommended phase 1 program

The 1,500-metre diamond drill program recommended by the technical report is budgeted at $1,403,575 (inclusive of a 15-per-cent contingency) and comprises nine BQTW core holes, helicopter-supported, with one contingent hole to be drilled subject to real-time handheld portable X-ray fluorescence (pXRF) screening of core from initial drilling.

The company has applied for the required Ontario exploration permit (MLAS file No. PR-23-000172), which is currently under circulation review. Commencement of drilling at the project is contingent upon the grant of the Ontario exploration permit. The company is advancing planning with respect to the recommended drill program; however, there can be no assurance regarding the timing of the grant of the Ontario exploration permit or if such permit will be granted at all.

First nations engagement

The company is actively engaged with the Kingfisher Lake, Mishkeegogamang, Nibinamik (Summer Beaver) and Wunnumin Lake First Nations in respect of the project. As previously disclosed (see company news release dated Jan. 20, 2026), Canamera has engaged Andrew Best as manager of indigenous relations -- a Metis professional with over 30 years of experience advancing economic reconciliation and capacity building across the energy, mining, forestry, and aerospace sectors, most recently leading indigenous engagement initiatives for mining companies operating in Canada's Ring of Fire. Canamera is committed to conducting its exploration activities in a manner that respects indigenous rights, fosters open communication and creates opportunities for meaningful participation by local communities.

Technical disclosures

Rock-chip samples referenced in this news release are grab samples and by their nature are selective; they are not necessarily representative of the mineralization hosted on the project.

The historical results referenced in this news release -- the 1961 Many Lakes exploration grab sample at Goldfinch (analyzed for Nb2O5 with Ontario Department of Mines check assays) and all 1977 International Minerals & Chemical Corp. RC sonic drilling data from the project, including the 5.65-per-cent REO drill intercept at drill hole SC-3 and the NdPr ratios referenced in the geological setting section (Erdosh, 1977; semi-quantitative spectrographic analysis) -- cannot be fully verified by the independent QP due to incomplete documentation and the absence of original signed assay certificates. The independent QP has concluded that the historical data are adequate for property-scale geological interpretation but not for mineral resource estimation and should be treated as historical in nature and used only as an indication of exploration potential. Investors are cautioned that these historical results should be considered order-of-magnitude estimates pending verification by modern analytical methods, are not indicative of the mineralization that may be encountered by Canamera on the project and should not be relied upon.

The 2023 rock chip sampling program was conducted by Dixon Metals, with analysis by AGAT Laboratories (Timmins, Ont.) using borate fusion full-suite REE and multielement analysis, and QA/QC (quality assurance/quality control) relying on internal laboratory standards and blanks. The independent QP has accepted the 2023 data as reasonable for exploration purposes but has noted that the QA/QC protocols are not sufficient to support a mineral resource estimate. The company has not yet conducted its own independent verification sampling on the project.

Qualified person

The scientific and technical information in this news release has been reviewed and approved by Warren Robb, PGeo (British Columbia), vice-president of exploration of Canamera Energy Metals, and a qualified person as defined by NI 43-101. Mr. Robb is not independent of the company within the meaning of NI 43-101. The technical report itself was authored by J. Garry Clark, PGeo, of Clark Exploration Consulting Inc., who is an independent qualified person as defined by NI 43-101.
