Widest and Highest-Grade Caesium Intercepts to Date at Vega including 28.0 m at 8.05% Cs2O and 2.2 m at 26.48% Cs2O

Widest and Highest-Grade Caesium Intercepts to Date at Vega including 28.0 m at 8.05% Cs2O and 2.2 m at 26.48% Cs2O PR Newswire MONTREAL, Feb. 3, 2026 MONTREAL, Feb. 3, 2026 /PRNewswire/ - February 4, 2026 - Sydney, Australia Highlights Widest and highest-grade caesium intercepts reported to date at theVega Zone: 28.0 m at 8.05%Cs2O including 18.3 m at 11.84%Cs2O (CV25-948). 18.2 m at 7.13%Cs2O including 3.0 m at 23.63%Cs2O (CV25-1023). 5.5 m at 14.83% Cs2O including 2.2 m at 26.48% Cs2O (CV25-1006) Includes highest-grade sample reported to date at 29.79% Cs2O 11.5 m at 1.75% Cs2O including 2.9 m at 3.88% Cs2O (CV25-1025). 16.1 m at 1.43% Cs2O including 1.3 m at 11.08% Cs2O (CV25-1010). Interpreted footprint and width of caesium mineralization at Vega expanded. High-grade caesium intercept from in-fill drilling at the Rigel Zone: 6.2 m at 5.12%Cs2O including 2.1 m at 13.68%Cs2O (CV25-914). High-grade caesium confirmed at the newly-discovered Helios Zone: 1.0 m at 21.52% Cs2O (CV25-975). Caesium assay results reported in this announcement for 8,596 m (52 holes) drilled at the CV13 Pegmatite - including the Vega, Rigel, and Helios Zones. Caesium assay results for 1,176 m (7 holes) from the Vega and Helios Zones remain pending. Darren L. Smith, Executive Vice President Exploration, comments: "Shaakichiuwaanaan continues to deliver impressive results, with the 2025 drill campaign returning the highest caesium grades reported to date at the Property - including a peak assay of 29.8% Cs2O - and confirming high-grade caesium at the newly discovered Helios Zone. With multiple intercepts exceeding 25% Cs2O, dominant pollucite mineralogy, and scale already demonstrated through defined Mineral Resources, the opportunity for the Company to further enhance shareholder value through this caesium deposit is meaningful." "We look forward to reporting caesium results for the remaining holes outstanding and integrating this opportunity into the overall Project development scenario," added Mr. Smith. PMET Resources Inc. (the "Company" or "PMET") (TSX: PMET) (ASX: PMT) (OTCQX: PMETF) (FSE: R9GA) is pleased to report caesium assay results for diamond drill holes completed at the CV13 Pegmatite, as part of its extensive 2025 drill campaign at the Company's wholly-owned Shaakichiuwaanaan Property (the "Property" or "Project"), located in the Eeyou Istchee James Bay region of Quebec. In addition to being one of the largest lithium-tantalum pegmatite Mineral Resources1 and lithium pegmatite Mineral Reserves2 globally, the Property also hosts the world's largest in-situ pollucite-hosted caesium pegmatite Mineral Resource, with 0.69 Mt at 4.40% Cs2O (Indicated) and 1.70 Mt at 2.40% Cs2O (Inferred). The CV13 Pegmatite, host to the caesium Mineral Resource, is located ~3 km along trend from the CV5 Pegmatite, which is situated approximately 13 km south of the regional Trans-Taiga Road and powerline infrastructure corridor, and is accessible year-round by road. _____________________________ (1) The Consolidated MRE (CV5 + CV13 pegmatites), which includes the Rigel and Vega caesium zones, totals 108.0 Mt at 1.40% Li2O, 0.11% Cs2O, 166 ppm Ta2O5, and 66 ppm Ga, Indicated, and 33.4 Mt at 1.33% Li2O, 0.21% Cs2O, 155 ppm Ta2O5, and 65 ppm Ga, Inferred, and is reported at a cut-off grade of 0.40% Li2O (open-pit), 0.60% Li2O (underground CV5), and 0.70% Li2O (underground CV13). A grade constraint of 0.50% Cs2O was used to model the Rigel and Vega caesium zones. Effective Date is June 20, 2025 (through CV24-787). Mineral Resources are not Mineral Reserves as they do not have demonstrated economic viability. Mineral Resources are inclusive of Mineral Reserves. (2) Probable Mineral Reserve of 84.3 Mt at 1.26% Li2O at the CV5 Pegmatite with a cut-off grade is 0.40% Li2O (open-pit) and 0.70% Li2O (underground). Underground development and open-pit marginal tonnage containing material above 0.37% Li2O are also included in the statement. The Effective Date is September 11, 2025. See Feasibility Study news release dated October 20, 2025. As part of its expansive 2025 drill campaign at Shaakichiuwaanaan, the Company completed further delineation drilling at the Vega and Rigel caesium zones. This exploration campaign also resulted in the discovery of the Helios Caesium Zone. All three caesium zones - Vega, Rigel, and Helios - are situated within the CV13 Pegmatite and are largely coincident with lithium and tantalum mineralization. Core assay results for caesium for 8,596 m (52 holes) at the CV13 Pegmatite are reported in this announcement, including prior pending overlimit3 analysis (see Figure 1, Table 1, Table 2, Table 3). Core assay results for caesium for 1,176 m (7 holes), covering the Vega and Helios zones, remain to be reported. Results for lithium and tantalum for all drill holes completed in 2025 at Shaakichiuwaanaan were previously reported (see news releases dated December 14, 2025 and January 21, 2026). All reported widths are core length (i.e., apparent and not true width). Vega Caesium Zone The strongest caesium results to date from the Property were returned from the 2025 drill campaign at the Vega Zone, including ten (10) individual samples grading >20% Cs2O and four (4) grading >25% Cs2O to a peak of29.79%, as well as multi-metre intercepts including 3.0 m at 23.63% Cs2O, 3.0 m at 23.05 Cs2O, and 2.2 m at 26.48% Cs2O (see Table 1, Figure 3, and Figure 4). Most of the holes were completed as infill, targeting a central high-grade core that had been interpreted from previous drilling. However, several holes were also completed at the margins of the modelled zone (e.g., CV25-1006). Based on the assay results reported in this announcement, the interpreted footprint and width of the caesium mineralization at Vega have increased. At Vega, drill result highlights for caesium include: 28.0 m at 8.05%Cs2O including 18.3 m at 11.84%Cs2O (CV25-948), see Figure 2. 18.2 m at 7.13%Cs2O including 3.0 m at 23.63%Cs2O (CV25-1023), see Figure 3. 5.5 m at 14.83% Cs2O including 2.2 m at 26.48% Cs2O (CV25-1006), see Figure 4. Includes highest-grade sample reported to date at the Project - 29.79% Cs2O 11.5 m at 1.75% Cs2O including 2.9 m at 3.88% Cs2O (CV25-1025). 16.1 m at 1.43% Cs2O including 1.3 m at 11.08% Cs2O (CV25-1010). 8.8 m at 0.96% Cs2O and 2.9 m at 10.89% Cs2O (CV25-1006). 9.8 m at 0.93% Cs2O and 1.2 m at 1.33% Cs2O (CV25-1024). 2.7 m at 6.47% Cs2O (CV25-1012) ________________________________ (3) Assay results which exceed the upper detection limit (1.06% Cs2O) of the base analytical package require subsequent analysis using a different analytical package to determine the Cs grade (i.e., overlimit analysis). Caesium results remain to be reported from Vega for multiple holes with overlimit4 analysis pending over intervals of 0.5 to 2.3 m. ______________________________ 4 Assay results which exceed the upper detection limit (1.06% Cs2O) of the base analytical package require subsequent analysis using a different analytical package to determine the Cs grade (i.e., overlimit analysis). Helios Caesium Zone (A NEW 2025 DISCOVERY) High-grade caesium mineralization has been confirmed at the Helios discovery (Table 1, Figure 5). Mineralization has been traced over an area of ~180 m x 80 m at ~1 to 3 m thickness and comes within at least 25 m from surface (vertical depth). Mineralization remains open in several areas. At Helios, drill result highlights to date for caesium include: 1.0 m at 21.52% Cs2O (CV25-975), see Figure 5. 0.8 m at 2.22% Cs2O (CV25-986). 1.0 m at 1.19% Cs2O (CV25-1004). Caesium results remain to be reported from Helios for multiple holes with overlimit5 analysis pending over intervals of 0.5 m to 4.9 m. Rigel Caesium Zone Several holes were completed as infill at the Rigel Zone with results presented in Table 1. The best caesium result from the program was 6.2 m at 5.12%Cs2O including 2.1 m at 13.68%Cs2O in drill hole CV25-914. The assay results from the 2025 drill holes have altered the interpreted eastern footprint of the Rigel Zone, which will be updated as part of the next Mineral Resource Estimate iteration. Some of the highest caesium grades to date have been reported from the Rigel Zone, including 1.1 m at 26.61% Cs2O within a wider zone of 3.2 m at 10.24% Cs2O (CV23-204). __________________________________ 5 Assay results which exceed the upper detection limit (1.06% Cs2O) of the base analytical package require subsequent analysis using a different analytical package to determine the Cs grade (i.e., overlimit analysis). Next Steps Caesium assays results for 1,176 m (7 holes) remain to be reported out of the total 57,024 m (245 holes) completed over the 2025 drill campaign at Shaakichiuwaanaan. These remaining results will be reported once received and compiled. The lithium and tantalum assay results have previously been reported for all 245 holes (see news releases dated December 14, 2025 and January 21, 2026). The geology team is currently interpreting and working with the 2025 drill hole data to advance the host rock and pegmatite geological models for the Project. The work is focused on the CV5 and CV13 pegmatites - including the Vega, Rigel, and Helios caesium zones - ahead of updates to their respective block models and subsequent Mineral Resource Estimate. The Company is also advancing towards an updated Feasibility Study for the CV5 Pegmatite scheduled for the second half of 2026. The data will also inform an underground bulk sample of mineralized pegmatite at CV5, which is currently being permitted.

Quality Assurance / Quality Control (QAQC) A Quality Assurance / Quality Control protocol following industry best practices was incorporated into the program and included systematic insertion of quartz blanks and certified/standard reference materials into sample batches at a rate of approximately 5% each. Additionally, analysis of pulp-split sample duplicates was completed to assess analytical precision, and external (secondary) laboratory pulp-split duplicates were prepared at the primary lab for subsequent check analysis and validation. All core samples collected were shipped to SGS Canada's laboratory in Val-d'Or, QC, for sample preparation (code PRP90 special) which includes drying at 105°C, crush to 90% passing 2 mm, riffle split 250 g, and pulverize 85% passing 75 microns. The pulps were shipped by air to SGS Canada's laboratory in Burnaby, BC, where the samples were homogenized and subsequently analyzed for multi-element (including Li, Ta, and Cs) using sodium peroxide fusion with ICP-AES/MS finish (codes GE_ICP91A50 and GE_IMS91A50). Overlimits for Cs were completed at SGS Canada's laboratory in Lakefield, ON, by borate-fusion XRF (code GC_XRF76V).

PMET Resources Inc. is a pegmatite critical mineral exploration and development company focused on advancing its district-scale 100%-owned Shaakichiuwaanaan Property located in the Eeyou Istchee James Bay region of Quebec, Canada, which is accessible year-round by all-season road and proximal to regional hydro-power infrastructure. In late 2025, the Company announced a positive lithium-only Feasibility Study on the CV5 Pegmatite for the Shaakichiuwaanaan Property and declared a maiden Mineral Reserve of 84.3 Mt at 1.26% Li2O (Probable)6. The study outlines the potential for a competitive and globally significant high-grade lithium project targeting up to ~800 ktpa spodumene concentrate using a simple Dense Media Separation ("DMS") only process flowsheet. Further, the results highlight Shaakichiuwaanaan as a potential North American critical mineral powerhouse with significant opportunity for tantalum and caesium in addition to lithium. The Project hosts a Consolidated Mineral Resource7 totalling 108.0 Mt at 1.40% Li2O and 166 ppm Ta2O5 (Indicated) and 33.4 Mt at 1.33% Li2O and 155 ppm Ta2O5 (Inferred), and ranks as the largest8 lithium pegmatite resource in the Americas, and in the top ten globally. Additionally, the Project hosts the world's largest pollucite-hosted caesium pegmatite Mineral Resource at the Rigel and Vega zones with 0.69 Mt at 4.40% Cs2O (Indicated), and 1.70 Mt at 2.40% Cs2O (Inferred).

Probable Mineral Reserve cut-off grade is 0.40% Li2O (open-pit) and 0.70% Li2O (underground). Underground development and open-pit marginal tonnage containing material above 0.37% Li2O are also included in the statement. Effective Date of September 11, 2025. 7 The Consolidated MRE (CV5 + CV13 pegmatites), which includes the Rigel and Vega caesium zones, totals 108.0 Mt at 1.40% Li2O, 0.11% Cs2O, 166 ppm Ta2O5, and 66 ppm Ga, Indicated, and 33.4 Mt at 1.33% Li2O, 0.21% Cs2O, 155 ppm Ta2O5, and 65 ppm Ga, Inferred, and is reported at a cut-off grade of 0.40% Li2O (open- pit), 0.60% Li2O (underground CV5), and 0.70% Li2O (underground CV13). A grade constraint of 0.50% Cs2O was used to model the Rigel and Vega caesium zones. The Effective Date is June 20, 2025 (through drill hole CV24-787). Mineral Resources are not Mineral Reserves as they do not have demonstrated economic viability. Mineral Resources are inclusive of Mineral Reserves. 8 Determination based on Mineral Resource data, sourced through July 11, 2025, from corporate disclosure.

The Rigel and Vega zones are hosted entirely within the CV13 Pegmatite as lenses concordant to the local pegmatite orientation. • At CV12 and CV8, current interpretation supports a series of shallow, northerly dipping sheets. • At CV4, current interpretation supports a series of steeply, northerly dipping sheets. Sample security • The measures taken to ensure sample security. • Samples were collected by Company staff or its consultants following specific protocols governing sample collection and handling. Core samples were bagged, placed in large supersacs for added security, palleted, and shipped directly to Val-d'Or, QC, being tracked during shipment along with Chain of Custody. Upon arrival at the laboratory, the samples were cross-referenced with the shipping manifest to confirm all samples were accounted for. At the laboratory, sample bags are evaluated for tampering.

Geology • Deposit type, geological setting and • The Property overlies a large portion of the Lac Guyer Greenstone Belt, style of mineralization. considered part of the larger La Grande River Greenstone Belt and is dominated by volcanic rocks metamorphosed to amphibolite facies. The claim block is dominantly host to rocks of the Guyer Group (amphibolite, iron formation, intermediate to mafic volcanics, peridotite, pyroxenite, komatiite, as well as felsic volcanics). The amphibolite rocks that trend east-west (generally steeply south dipping) through this region are bordered to the north by the Magin Formation (conglomerate and wacke) and to the south by an assemblage of tonalite, granodiorite, and diorite, in addition to metasediments of the Marbot Group (conglomerate, wacke). Several regional-scale Proterozoic gabbroic dykes also cut through portions of the Property (Lac Spirt Dykes, Senneterre Dykes). • The geological setting is prospective for multiple commodities over several different deposit styles including orogenic gold (Au), volcanogenic massive sulphide (Cu, Au, Ag), komatiite-ultramafic (Au, Ag, PGE, Ni, Cu, Co), and LCT pegmatite (Li, Cs, Ta, Ga, Rb). • Exploration of the Property has outlined three primary mineral exploration trends crossing dominantly east-west over large portions of the Property - Golden Trend (gold), Maven Trend (copper, gold, silver), and CV Trend (lithium, caesium, tantalum). The CV4, CV5, CV8, CV12, and CV13 pegmatites are situated within the CV Trend. • The pegmatites at Shaakichiuwaanaan are categorized as Li-Cs-Ta ("LCT") pegmatites. LCT mineralization at the Property is observed to occur within quartz-feldspar pegmatite. The pegmatite is often very coarse-grained and off-white in appearance, with darker sections commonly composed of mica and smoky quartz, and occasional tourmaline. • Core assays and ongoing mineralogical studies, coupled with field mineral identification and assays confirm spodumene as the dominant lithium-bearing mineral on the Property, with no significant petalite, lepidolite, lithium-phosphate minerals, or apatite present. The spodumene crystal size of the pegmatites is typically decimeter scale, and therefore, very large. The pegmatites also carry significant tantalum (tantalite) and caesium (pollucite). Gallium is present in spodumene and feldspar via substitution with Al.

The Company has also produced a marketable lithium hydroxide concentrate from CV5's spodumene concentrate. • The Company has produced marketable tantalite concentrates at bench- scale from the CV5 Pegmatite's DMS (spodumene) tailings fractions. The testwork used gravity or gravity + flotation methods to produce tantalite concentrates grading 8.7% Ta2O5 at 45% global recovery (MC001) and 6.6% Ta2O5 at 49% global recovery (MC002). • The Company has produced marketable pollucite concentrates at bench- scale from the CV13 Pegmatite's Vega Caesium Zone. The testwork used XRT ore sorting to produce concentrates of 11.5% Cs2O and 20.0% Cs2O at an overall 88% recovery. • Various mandates required for advancing the Project have been completed or are ongoing, including but not limited to, environmental baseline, metallurgy, geomechanics, hydrogeology, hydrology, stakeholder engagement, geochemical characterization, as well as transportation and logistical studies.
