NOVARED ESTABLISHES ADVISORY BOARD, APPOINTS VICE-PRESIDENT OF COMMUNICATIONS
Novared Mining Inc. has formed an advisory board that will provide technical, strategic, financial and marketing advice to the board of directors as it prepares to finance and conduct further exploration on its Wilmac copper-gold project.
Concurrently, Novared has appointed Commander Phil Ehr (U.S. Navy, retired) as the inaugural member of its advisory board. A distinguished 26-year U.S. Navy veteran and national security strategist, Commander Ehr exhibited a rare Mustang career trajectory, rising from enlisted seaman to commander. He has held leadership roles in global reconnaissance, combat operations, high-level defence policy, and providing strategic advice to senior U.S. and allied leaders, with expertise in operational integrity and quality control.
During his military career, he conducted classified U.S. Navy air reconnaissance missions during the Cold War, provided combat support in the Gulf War and oversaw U.S. air combat operations in NATO's Balkan campaign. Commander Ehr is currently focused on humanitarian aid initiatives, countering disinformation and advising on national security-focused energy projects. He recognizes the strategic importance of copper and other critical minerals, particularly during periods of conflict.
Novared is currently reviewing additional candidates for consideration as appointees to its advisory board.
Appointment of vice-president of communications
The company further announces that it has appointed Kirk Reed as its vice-president of communications. Mr. Reed will oversee Novared's traditional and social media relations.
Mr. Reed currently serves as a director of Showcase Minerals Inc. and previously served as its president from 2021 to 2025. He has acted as president, chief executive officer and chief financial officer of Globe Net Wireless Corp., a U.S. reporting issuer that traded on the OTC Markets. In addition, Mr. Reed served as president and a director of Candorado Operating Company Ltd., a Canadian reporting issuer engaged in mineral property exploration that traded on the TSX Venture Exchange, from November, 2001, to April, 2013. He has also served as a director of New Shosoni Ventures Ltd., which traded on the TSX Venture Exchange.
Marketing agreement
Further to its news release dated Oct. 10, 2025, Novared has amended its marketing agreement with PRAI Inc. to reflect that the six-month term agreement commenced on March 25, 2026, rather than the initially planned date of Oct. 15, 2025. The other terms of the agreement remain the same. PRAI will provide marketing services on Novared's behalf, including content marketing, native advertisements, SMS (short messaging service) and e-mail marketing, display advertisements, landing pages, influencer networking, push notifications, omnichannel programmatic advertising, marketing awareness, and pay-for-click advertising, in order to assist Novared in raising public awareness of the company and enhance its on-line presence in compliance with the policies and guidelines of the Canadian Securities Exchange. PRAI may use third party service providers for the purpose of some of these marketing activities.
PRAI has also developed and filed a provisional patent application in the United States on Novared's behalf for an AI-driven (artificial intelligence) mineral exploration platform with multisource geological data integration, a probabilistic scoring engine and a blockchain-based document verification system.
The objective of the platform is to develop an integrated system designed to aggregate geological, geochemical, geophysical and mining claim data from multiple government and proprietary databases into a unified data layer. The platform is expected to incorporate a weighted probabilistic scoring algorithm intended to estimate mineral potential for land parcels based on factors such as proximity to known deposits, geochemical anomalies, geological characteristics and mining claim density.
However, the platform's outputs will be dependent on the availability, quality and consistency of underlying data sources, as well as the assumptions and parameters applied in the algorithm, and may not accurately reflect actual mineral potential.
