Bedford begins phase 1 prospecting at Sheppard Lake

Dr. Peter Born reports BEDFORD METALS COMMENCES PHASE 1 PROSPECTING PROGRAM AT SHEPPARD LAKE URANIUM PROJECT Bedford Metals Corp. has commenced its phase 1 prospecting program at the Sheppard Lake uranium project, located on the southern edge of Saskatchewan's Athabasca basin. The six-week program will focus on advancing Bedford's understanding of the property through systematic surface exploration. Field activities will include surface sampling, a detailed radiometric survey, ground magnetics and the deployment of radon gas cups. The field crew will be investigating multiple high-priority targets, including VTEM anomalies, subsurface electromagnetic conductors, and historical radioactive showings such as TZ-1, TZ-2 and the Warr Lake zone. Remote parts of the property will be accessed using helicopter support to ensure comprehensive coverage. The objective of this program is to refine existing drill targets and identify additional high-priority areas to be incorporated into the company's planned fall 2025 diamond drilling campaign. Dr. Peter Born, president of Bedford, commented: "The launch of our phase 1 prospecting program at Sheppard Lake marks an important next step in systematically advancing this highly prospective project. The combination of surface sampling, geophysical work and radon surveys will provide valuable data that will guide our upcoming drilling program later this year." Bedford remains committed to responsible and sustainable exploration. All activities are conducted in accordance with environmental best practices and in close collaboration with local indigenous communities and regional stakeholders. The company values transparent communication and respectful engagement with all parties affected by its operations. Further updates will be provided as the prospecting program progresses and results are received.
