Snow Lake and Exodys Energy Collaborate to Support the Formation of a New Nuclear Reactor Development and Deployment Company
Winnipeg, Manitoba--(Newsfile Corp. - May 28, 2025) - Snow Lake Resources Ltd., d/b/a Snow Lake Energy (NASDAQ: LITM) ('Snow Lake'), a uranium exploration and development company, and Exodys Energy, a premier U.S. nuclear engineering services provider specializing in nuclear fuel recycling solutions, are pleased to announce their collaboration in supporting the formation of a new, purpose-driven nuclear reactor development and deployment company (the 'Reactor Company'). This strategic alliance marks a significant step forward in enabling the delivery of clean, reliable energy solutions designed to meet the rapidly growing needs of AI-powered infrastructure and hyperscale data centers. Since announcing their Memorandum of Understanding (the 'MOU') in February, 2025, the partners played a central role in shaping the Reactor Company's commercialization roadmap and integrated risk mitigation strategy.
A Significant Step in Snow Lake's Nuclear Diversification Strategy
This development represents a pivotal advancement in Snow Lake's ongoing diversification into the nuclear industry. Following its successful acquisitions of key uranium exploration projects in Wyoming, and a strategic investment in Global Uranium and Enrichment Limited ('GUE') (which included uranium enrichment technologies), Snow Lake is now expanding its nuclear footprint to include reactor design, development, and deployment. The leadership of the new Reactor Company will be unveiled over the coming weeks.
'Our recent uranium acquisitions and equity stake in GUE demonstrate Snow Lake's commitment to becoming a full-spectrum player in the nuclear energy sector,' said Frank Wheatley, CEO of Snow Lake Energy. 'The incubation of this dedicated Reactor Company positions Snow Lake as one of the few vertically integrated companies in the nuclear industry - from uranium supply through to enrichment and to reactor development and deployment. This is a natural and strategic progression in our mission to power the AI-driven future with clean, reliable energy.'
Momentum Driven by Policy and Innovation
This announcement comes at a time of unprecedented momentum for nuclear energy, driven by the four nuclear Executive Orders signed by President Trump [1] on May 23, 2025, that will streamline regulatory processes, accelerate reactor licensing, and cement domestic nuclear fuel security. These directives provide a favorable backdrop for Snow Lake's new Reactor Company and broader nuclear sector strategy.
'The ongoing U.S. nuclear resurgence, bolstered by President Trump's Executive Orders, creates an extraordinary and timely opportunity for Snow Lake to lead the next wave of innovation with the Reactor Company's founding team, and supported by partners like Exodys,' said Carl Perez, CEO of Exodys Energy. 'Supporting Snow Lake in its technical and commercial roadmap is not merely a plan - it is a response to the urgent need to domestically scale and deploy nuclear power reactors. Together, we are committed to building a resilient and circular nuclear ecosystem to power the future.'
Snow Lake's First Principles Approach
Since the initial announcement of the partnership and execution of the MOU in February 2025, both companies and the scouted founding team have thoroughly discussed reactor development risks and deployment considerations to determine the path of least resistance with the highest financial return. As a result, the new Reactor Company is opting for a pragmatic approach to advanced nuclear development by focusing on a small modular reactor (SMR) design based on existing and mature pressurized water reactor (PWR) technology. This enables it to leverage the deep expertise and industrial infrastructure associated with PWR reactors - ensuring strong regulatory readiness, a mature supply chain, time-tested technology, and established operator training pipelines. Snow Lake is therefore centered on driving the most rapid and reliable path to generating nuclear power. In partnering with Exodys Energy, Snow Lake is anticipating the challenges that advanced reactors will face in regards to spent nuclear fuel storage and management costs-further amplifying its unique foresighted and comprehensive approach.
'This is just the beginning,' added Frank Wheatley. 'As we deepen our nuclear partnerships, we have grown increasingly acclimated to the success factors driving this industry. Our approach is simple and focused: energy must be delivered. To meet this challenge, we are building on a proven playbook of development and deployment, alongside a proven executive team, to kickstart our path to generating nuclear energy. In addition, the collaboration with Exodys Energy ensures the anticipation of spent fuel management challenges and its revenue potential. Snow Lake's vertical integration strategy positions us to earn revenue throughout the value chain and reactor asset life - before, during, and after reactor operations.'

Radiation Risk From Israel's Strikes on Iran Nuclear Sites Is Low, for Now
Strikes on any nuclear facilities could, in theory, release clouds of deadly radiation that endanger human lives and health. But in the case of Israel's attacks on Iran overnight on Friday, that appears so far to not have been the case. The earliest attacks and targets seem for the moment to rule out the most dangerous outcomes, limiting possible radiation threats to the realm of the relatively minor. The most dangerous kind of threat would arise from successful attacks on nuclear reactors. Over time, the splitting of atoms in reactor fuel results in buildups of highly radioactive spinoffs. Among the worst are Cesium 137, Strontium 90 and Iodine 131. If Iodine 131 is inhaled or ingested, it ends up in a person's thyroid gland. There, its intense radioactivity raises dramatically the risk of thyroid cancer, particularly in children. The other isotopes can also result in cancers. But so far, no reports or evidence suggest that Iran's nuclear reactors were hit in the Israeli attacks. Apparently spared were a power plant on the Persian Gulf, a research reactor in Tehran and a heavily guarded site ringed by antiaircraft weapons and miles of barbed wire. Known as Arak, that isolated complex was long suspected of being built to produce plutonium, one of the two main fuels for atom bombs. But the Obama administration's 2015 deal with Iran turned the complex into a nuclear relic unusable for that purpose. The Arak reactor never came to life. Want all of The Times? Subscribe.

'ANTI-AMERICAN RADICALS': Jason Rantz Previews Soros-Backed 'No Kings' Protests
Jason Rantz, host of The Jason Rantz Show on KTTH in Seattle/Tacoma and author of What's Killing America, joined The Guy Benson Show today to react to Israel's targeted strike on Iran amid Tehran's continued pursuit of nuclear weapons and why Rep. Pramila Jayapal's defense of the Iranian regime is so typical of the far-left. Rantz also previewed the upcoming 'No Kings' protests, warning that while some attendees may be peaceful, Soros-backed factions are likely to incite violent unrest. Guy and Jason also warned New Yorkers about the radical agenda of Zohran Mamdani and what his rise could mean for the future of the city, drawing apt comparison to Rantz's own Seattle, WA.
