INOMIN AND SUMITOMO PLAN NEXT EXPLORATION AT BEAVER-LYNX

Inomin Mines Inc. and Sumitomo Metal Mining Canada Ltd. are preparing the next exploration program at the 28,000-hectare Beaver-Lynx polymetallic project in south-central British Columbia. The program will build on the strong 2025 drill results that expanded the South zone and confirmed a large nickel-magnesium-cobalt-PGE (platinum group element) system.

John Gomez, president of Inomin, comments: "Last year's drilling confirmed we're dealing with a large, growing mineral system. Our next program aims to build on that momentum and test several new targets at the Lynx block that could be as significant as the South zone."

The upcoming program will continue expanding the South zone discovery and launch the first-ever drilling at the Lynx block, where several targets, as defined by magnetic surveys, appear as large or larger than those already drilled. Beaver-Lynx sits next to the Gibraltar mine and benefits from excellent infrastructure. Drilling to date suggests the project could host significant volumes of critical minerals, including nickel, magnesium, cobalt, platinum and palladium.

More details on the 2026 program will be released once finalized.

About Beaver-Lynx

The 28,000-hectare Beaver-Lynx project is located in south-central British Columbia, approximately 50 kilometres north of Williams Lake and adjacent to the Gibraltar mine, Canada's second-largest open-pit copper operation. The project benefits from exceptional infrastructure, including all-season road access, nearby hydroelectric power and proximity to active rail lines. The surrounding resource communities provide comprehensive services and a skilled work force.

Exploration to date has focused exclusively on the Beaver block -- including multiple drilling campaigns -- indicating the property may host large volumes of nickel and magnesium, along with cobalt, platinum and palladium. Drilling has also intersected chromium, copper, silver and gold, underscoring the polymetallic nature of the system. With encouraging drill results and several extensive mineralized zones identified, Beaver-Lynx has the potential to become a significant new source of critical minerals.

The adjoining Lynx block, located 10 kilometres south of the Beaver block, hosts multiple high-priority targets that are comparable -- and in some cases potentially larger -- than those at Beaver. Together, these zones highlight the district-scale opportunity of the Beaver-Lynx project.
