ORIGEN APPOINTS NEW BOARD MEMBER

Origen Resources Inc. has appointed Antonio Silva to the board of directors. Mr. Silva (PhD, MIMMM) is a geoscientist with a wide-ranging expertise in mineral prospecting and extraction of metallic and non-metallic critical raw materials, and quite experienced in technical and operational consultancy activities in mining geology, exploration geochemistry, ore petrology, mineral processing and extractive metallurgy. He has been involved as a chief geologist and geometallurgist in hard-rock lithium and gold exploration projects, as well as ceramics raw materials like feldspars, kaolin and ball clays.

"Mr. Silva brings broad technical expertise in rare earths and critical minerals to our board. He is a highly respected professional in both South America and Europe, and we are pleased to welcome him. Mr. Silva completed his PhD through a joint program between the University of Aveiro and the University of Porto in Portugal, with support from the Federal University of Ceara in Brazil. His knowledge of Brazil and strong network there have already proven invaluable in the acquisition of our REE portfolio in the country," states Gary Schellenberg, chief executive officer.
