EAGLE PLAINS PARTNER XCITE RESOURCES COMMENCES AIRBORNE GEOPHYSICAL SURVEYS AT URANIUM CITY AREA PROJECTS, SASKATCHEWAN

Eagle Plains Resources Ltd. has been notified by option partner Xcite Resources Inc. (TSX Venture Exchange: XRI) that survey equipment has been mobilized to commence a geophysical survey on Eagle Plains' 100-per-cent-owned Beaver River, Black Bay, Don Lake, Gulch, Lorado and Smitty projects.

Geotech Airborne Geophysical Surveys has been contracted to complete 697 line kilometres of helicopter-borne surveying using Geotech's proprietary VTEM Plus system, split between each of the six projects. Data collection will include infill lines in areas with historical coverage, as well as extending surveying to new areas.

The Uranium City area projects have potential for both Beaverlodge-style and basement-hosted uranium mineralization. Key features about the projects include:

• Outcropping, largely northeast-southwest-trending tectonic fabric;
• Electromagnetic conductors that have been confirmed as graphite-rich pelites within or near major faults;
• Anomalous uranium geochemistry and radioactivity associated with graphitic faults;
• Compelling property-wide evidence for hydrothermal alteration;
• Uranium mineralization with corresponding elevations in pathfinder elements.

These factors, along with the presence of a substantial uranium endowment in both basement rocks and Athabasca basin cover rocks, indicate excellent potential for economic uranium mineralization within the project. The mineralization, structures and alteration identified on the claims to date are strong indicators of the possibility of a nearby source for the uranium mineralization.

About the Beaverlodge uranium district

The Don Lake, Black Bay, Don Lake, Gulch, Black Bay and Smitty projects are located in the Beaverlodge district near Uranium City in the Lake Athabasca region of Saskatchewan. Occurrences of uranium mineralization are abundant in the Uranium City area and have been explored and documented since the 1940s. The Beaverlodge camp was the first uranium producer in Canada, with historic production of approximately 70.25 million pounds of U3O8 (triuranium octoxide) completed between 1950 and 1982, with ore grades averaging 0.23 per cent U3O8. The two largest producers were the Eldorado Beaverlodge (Ace-Fay-Verna) mine and the Gunnar uranium mine. The Beaverlodge area has seen limited uranium-focused exploration since the early 1990s.

Eagle Plains' management cautions that past results or discoveries on proximate land are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be achieved on the subject properties.

Beaverlodge-style uranium deposits host structurally controlled, high-grade mineralization in veins and breccia fills within basement rocks. Mineralization often occurs at geological contacts and consists of structures filled with hematite, chlorite and graphite associated with pitchblende.

Uranium City option agreements

Under the terms of the agreements, Xcite may earn an 80-per-cent interest in each of the Beaver River, Black Bay, Don Lake, Gulch, Black Bay and Smitty projects by completing $3.2-million in exploration expenditures, issuing 750,000 common shares of Xcite and making cash payments to Eagle Plains of $55,000 over four years, for an aggregate of $19.2-million in exploration expenditures, 4.5 million shares and $330,000 in cash to Eagle Plains. Upon Xcite fulfilling the terms of any or all of the earn-in agreements, an 80/20 joint venture will be formed, with Eagle Plains retaining a carried interest in all expenditures until delivery by Xcite or its assigns of a bankable feasibility study. During the option earn-in period, XRI will be appointed as operator, and Eagle Plains will manage the exploration programs under the direction of a joint technical committee. The projects are owned 100 per cent by Eagle Plains, which will retain an underlying 2-per-cent NSR (net smelter returns) royalty on the each of the properties.

About Eagle Plains Resources Ltd.

Based in Cranbrook, B.C., Eagle Plains is a well-financed, prolific project generator that continues to conduct research, acquire and explore mineral projects throughout Western Canada, with a focus on critical metals integral to an increasingly electrified, decarbonized economy.

The company was formed in 1992 and is the fourth-oldest listed issuer on the TSX-V (and the only one of these four that has not seen a rollback or restructuring of its shares). Eagle Plains has continued to deliver shareholder value over the years and through numerous spin outs has transferred over $110-million in value directly to its shareholders, with Copper Canyon Resources and Taiga Gold Corp. being notable examples. Eagle Plains latest spinout, Eagle Royalties Ltd. (Canadian Securities Exchange: ER) was listed on May 24, 2023, and holds a diverse portfolio of royalty assets throughout Western Canada. On Oct. 30, 2025, ER shareholders overwhelmingly approved a three-cornered amalgamation that will result in a reverse takeover of Eagle Royalties by Summit Royalty Corp. Eagle Royalties shareholders will receive a consideration of 18 cents per ER share, representing a premium of 47 per cent based on ER's closing price on June 30, 2025, on the Canadian Securities Exchange. The resulting issuer will be named Summit Royalties Ltd. and will trade under the symbol SUM on the TSX Venture Exchange. The transaction is expected to close on or about Nov. 4, 2025.

On Oct. 2, 2024, Eagle Plains announced the formation of a separate division within the company that will give Eagle Plains' shareholders direct exposure to strategic opportunities in Canadian green energy transition. As a wholly owned subsidiary of Eagle Plains, Osprey Power Inc. (OP), will focus on identifying and advancing innovative and diverse clean energy project portfolios in target markets throughout Canada, with an initial focus on Western Canada.

Eagle Plains' core business is acquiring grassroots critical- and precious-metal exploration properties. The company is committed to steadily enhancing shareholder value by advancing the company's diverse portfolio of projects toward discovery through collaborative partnerships and development of a highly experienced technical team.

Expenditures from 2010 to 2024 on Eagle Plains-related projects exceed $39-million, the majority of which was financed by third party partners. This exploration work resulted in approximately 50,000 metres of diamond drilling and extensive ground-based exploration work facilitating the advancement of numerous projects at various stages of development.

Throughout the exploration process, the company's mission is to help maintain prosperous communities by exploring for and discovering resource opportunities while building lasting relationships through honest and respectful business practices.

We seek Safe Harbor.
