NORTH ATLANTIC TITANIUM ADVANCES SAMPLING AND DRILL PLANNING AT EVERETT TITANIUM PROJECT, QUEBEC

North Atlantic Titanium Corp. is advancing final planning for an integrated surface sampling and definition drilling program at its Everett titanium project, located near Havre-Saint-Pierre, Que.

The planned program is designed to move Everett from historical exploration, recent mineralogical characterization and surface exposure sampling toward a modern, spatially controlled geological, geochemical and geometallurgical data set. The work is expected to support future drill targeting, validation of historical drilling and planning for an initial mineral resource estimate under National Instrument 43-101.

Program objectives:

• Systematic surface sampling planned across priority oxide exposures at Everett, with initial work focused on the northern portion of the exposed oxide body, where access and historical data sets provide a strong foundation for modern verification;
• Tight-grid assay and representative metallurgical sampling are planned to assess titanium, vanadium, iron and phosphate distribution, as well as geological and mineralogical variability across the hemo-ilmenite and apatite-bearing mineralized system;
• First modern definition diamond drill program under planning, designed to validate historical drilling, confirm geometry and continuity of the mineralized body, collect modern assay and density data, and provide fresh core for mineralogical and metallurgical testwork;
• Drilling objectives include validation and resource readiness, including surveyed collars, modern logging, systematic sampling, chain-of-custody procedures, QA/QC (quality assurance/quality control) protocols, and collection of representative material for density and metallurgical variability testing;
• Program follows recent Corem and Elements08 work, which supports a geometallurgical approach focused on titanium-vanadium-bearing hemo-ilmenite and apatite-hosted phosphorus;
• Technical report and drill planning advancing in parallel, with final drill collar locations, azimuths, dips, planned depths, contractor selection and commencement timing to be disclosed once finalized.

Planned Everett field program

The upcoming Everett field program is intended to establish the modern surface-control data set required to support definition drilling. Work is expected to include geological mapping, structural observations, representative bedrock sampling, assay sampling, density sampling and metallurgical sample collection across priority exposures of the Everett oxide body.

The company expects to prioritize spatially controlled sampling that can be directly integrated with historical maps, historical drill data, recent mineralogical work and planned drill collar positioning. The program will also collect material for continuing metallurgical evaluation, including variability work intended to assess concentrate quality, liberation characteristics, impurity deportment and the potential recovery of titanium, vanadium, iron and phosphate value streams.

Samples will be collected under the supervision of the company's technical team and submitted to accredited laboratories in accordance with documented chain-of-custody procedures. The company expects to release assay and metallurgical results as they are received, validated and interpreted.

Planned validation diamond drilling

Following completion of surface sampling, access confirmation and final technical review, North Atlantic Titanium plans to advance a first modern-definition diamond drill program at Everett.

In the first phase of diamond drilling, the company has surveyed drill trail access and eight drill sites across the northern 600 metres of the Everett oxide body's strike length.

The program is expected to test the principal hemo-ilmenite-bearing noritic gabbro body and selected priority areas identified through the integrated surface program. Initial drilling is expected to focus on confirming the mineralized geometry, validating historical drill results, assessing grade continuity, and collecting core for modern assay, density, mineralogical and metallurgical purposes.

Management commentary

"Everett benefits from substantial historical work, recent mineralogical analysis and excellent regional infrastructure," said Dwayne Yaretz, chief executive officer and director of North Atlantic Titanium. "Our next step is to convert that foundation into a modern, decision-ready technical data set. The planned surface sampling and definition drilling are designed to validate historical work, confirm continuity, and collect the assay, density, QA/QC and metallurgical data needed to advance Everett toward an initial mineral resource framework."

Mr. Yaretz continued: "This is a disciplined, staged program. Surface work will sharpen drill targeting and provide representative material for metallurgical testing. At the same time, drilling will deliver the modern core data needed to assess grade, thickness, geometry and processing variability across the system."

Technical rationale

The planned Everett program is being designed as a geometallurgical advancement program rather than a conventional grade-only exploration program. The company expects to integrate surface assay data, bedrock geology, mineral assemblage, density data, historical drill information and metallurgical variability information into a single technical model.

This approach is intended to support the company's evaluation of Everett as a potential integrated titanium-vanadium-phosphate project, while also addressing the requirements for modern data verification and future National Instrument 43-101 resource work.

About the Everett titanium project

Everett is located near Havre-Saint-Pierre in Quebec's Cote-Nord region, within the broader Grenville province anorthosite terrain known for large iron-titanium oxide systems. The project is accessible by road and is located within a region with established industrial, port and hydroelectric infrastructure.

Everett is interpreted as an anorthosite-associated, hemo-ilmenite-bearing Fe-Ti (iron-titanium) oxide system with associated potential for vanadium and phosphate. Historical exploration included drilling, geological work and metallurgical studies; however, the company cautions that historical drilling and any historical estimates are not current mineral resources and require modern confirmation through drilling, sampling, density determination, QA/QC and resource estimation under current standards.
