Greenridge Exploration Commences Airborne Electromagnetic Survey for the Flying Vee Nickel Project in Northern Saskatchewan

VANCOUVER, British Columbia, July 23, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Greenridge Exploration Inc. ('Greenridge' or the 'Company') (CSE: GXP | FRA: HW3 | OTCQB: GXPLF), is pleased to announce it has commenced a helicopter-borne time-domain electromagnetic ('HTDEM') survey (the 'Program') on the Flying Vee Nickel Project ('Flying Vee', or the 'Project'). Axiom Exploration Group Ltd. of Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada ('Axiom') is contracted to perform a high-resolution Xcite™ survey at the Project. Flying Vee consists of seven (7) mineral claims comprising a total area of 10,734 hectares (26,524 acres) located approximately twenty-five (25) kilometres north of Stony Rapids, Saskatchewan. The 2025 Program is designed to further delineate known conductive structural corridors at the Project that could be prospective for hosting sulphide mineralization, including metals such as nickel, copper, cobalt and gold. Russell Starr, Chief Executive Officer of the Company stated, 'We are pleased to announce a high-resolution HTDEM survey at Flying Vee, with the goal of improving the definition of conductive geological features on the Project. The results will be integrated with historical survey data to guide further exploration and add a higher degree of confidence to drill targeting.' Highlights of the Upcoming Flying Vee Airborne Survey Figure 1. Axiom's Xcite™ HTDEM survey in progress About Flying Vee Flying Vee is located approximately twenty-five (25) kilometres north of Stony Rapids, Saskatchewan, and lies within the Tantato Domain, otherwise known as the East Athabasca Mylonite Triangle, which forms a segment of the Snowbird Tectonic Zone. Numerous mineral showings are found within and near Flying Vee, including the on-property Nickel Lake East and West nickel showings, and the off-property Axis Lake nickel-copper deposit ('Axis Lake') located approximately fifteen (15) kilometres to the southwest within Greenridge's 100%-owned Firebird Nickel Project (please see Figure 2). Figure 2. Flying Vee Project Location, Eastern Athabasca Basin Region Nickel-Copper-Cobalt Exploration at Flying Vee Two main periods of historical exploration by several exploration companies are documented at Flying Vee from 1956 to 1988 and from 2007 to 2009, consisting of prospecting and mapping, trenching, airborne and ground geophysical surveys, and diamond drilling. Several trenches were completed between 1957 and 1962 in the eastern part of the Project area south of Nickel Lake that outlined norite-hosted nickel-copper mineralization at surface. Thirteen (13) shallow diamond drillholes were completed in 1964 with the best result in Hole #3, which returned 0.89% nickel and 0.32% copper over 0.79 metres from 11.59 to 12.38 metres.1 Greenridge terms this area as the 'Nickel Lake East' showing. In 2022, ALX Resources Corp., ('ALX') a company acquired by Greenridge in December 2024, revisited Nickel Lake East to prospect the surface trace of a 2022 airborne EM anomaly and collected a grab sample that returned 1.11% nickel and 0.42% copper from a historical trench. ALX's subsequent geophysical modeling of the conductive anomaly at Nickel Lake East showed that none of the thirteen holes drilled in 1964 intersected the main body of the 2022 EM conductor, despite five of the shallow drill holes intersecting modest values of nickel.2 Airborne electromagnetic surveys completed in 2007 and 2008 by Strongbow Exploration Inc. ('Strongbow') detected a favorable conductive zone with a coincident magnetic anomaly at the Nickel Lake West showing. In 2008, Strongbow tested the Nickel Lake West anomaly with drillhole NL08-01, intersecting semi-massive pyrrhotite along with chalcopyrite and minor pentlandite that returned 1.89% nickel, 0.96% copper, and 0.11% cobalt over a 0.80 metre interval from 80.15 to 80.95 metres (measured downhole drill depths, please see Figure 3).3 Figure 3. Strongbow's hole NL08-01 returned 1.89% nickel, 0.96% copper and 0.11% cobalt Gold Exploration In 1968, a gossan zone was discovered at Day Lake within the current Project area, which hosts disseminated pyrite and arsenopyrite mineralization. A selected grab sample assayed 0.81 ounces/ton (27.77 grams/tonne) gold.4 Diamond drilling was carried out in the Day Lake area in 1986 by Colchis Resources, intersecting anomalous gold and silver mineralization. ALX revisited the Day Lake gold showing in 2020 and sampled anomalous gold concentrations ranging up to 8.34 grams/tonne gold from arsenopyrite-bearing gossanous outcrop and historical pits.5 Greenridge's 2025 Exploration Goals at Flying Vee Greenridge plans to integrate the results of the 2025 HTDEM survey with historical geological and geophysical data to better delineate the footprint of known mineralized zones at Flying Vee. The Company considers Flying Vee underexplored in the modern era of mineral exploration and believes that the Project has the potential to host an economic base metals deposit. The Company holds an active exploration permit for surface prospecting and sampling, airborne and ground geophysics, and drilling of up to 100 drill holes, valid to March 31, 2028.

Greenridge Exploration acquires Raven Uranium Project in Saskatchewan, Canada

Greenridge Exploration has acquired the Raven Uranium Project in the Athabasca Basin, Saskatchewan, Canada, through low-cost staking, with no underlying royalties. The project comprises four mineral claims spread over 6,269 hectares (ha) and is located near the McArthur River Uranium Mine. The Raven Uranium Project, now 100% owned by Greenridge, is positioned near the eastern margin of the Athabasca Basin, around 65km south-east of the McArthur River Uranium Mine. Greenridge Exploration's acquisition includes new claims that are contiguous to a single claim already in the company's possession. Raven is characterised by more than 9km of a historical electromagnetic conductor aligned with a magnetic low, indicative of potential uranium mineralisation. The region is known for its structural trends, which, when intersected by brittle faults, are considered highly prospective for uranium deposits. Despite its promising features, Raven has no known historical drill-holes, leading Greenridge to consider the property under-explored. Greenridge possesses data from a 2021 high-resolution airborne magnetic and radiometric survey conducted over Raven. This technology previously aided in the discovery of uranium-bearing boulders at Patterson Lake, leading to the notable Triple R find in November 2012. Although follow-up prospecting based on historical radiometric surveys has been limited, the company has recommended conducting further surface work. The company is considering a helicopter-borne electromagnetic survey in 2025, which may coincide with other planned surveys in the area. In October of the previous year, Greenridge Exploration signed a binding agreement to acquire ALX Resources, marking a strategic move to become a dominant player in the Canadian uranium exploration sector. This merger creates a combined entity with interests in 16 uranium exploration projects covering approximately 220,000ha across the Athabasca Basin, Thelon Basin and Elliot Lake.

Greenridge Exploration Completes Airborne MobileMT Survey at the Sabre Uranium Project in Athabasca Basin, Saskatchewan

VANCOUVER, British Columbia, April 30, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Greenridge Exploration Inc. ('Greenridge' or the 'Company') (CSE: GXP | FRA: HW3 | OTCQB: GXPLF) is pleased to announce the completion of a high-resolution helicopter-borne Mobile MagnetoTellurics System ('MobileMT') survey at the Sabre Uranium Project (the 'Sabre Property' or the 'Project') located in the northern Athabasca Basin region of Saskatchewan, Canada. The Project-wide MobileMT survey completed by Expert Geophysics Surveys Inc. ('EGS') consisted of 1,536 line-kilometres flown at 200-metre line spacings over a 232 square kilometre area. The MobileMT survey was implemented to map sub-surface magnetic signatures and detect conductive zones within the margin of the Athabasca Basin sandstones that may be prospective for hosting unconformity-related uranium mineralization. Figure 1 - Sabre Property; 2025 Airborne MobileMT Survey Flightlines, Athabasca Basin The Company believes that its use of the MobileMT system is ideal for the advancement of exploration at the Sabre Property through delineation of major conductive structural systems, and the Company looks forward to the interpretation of the 2025 results to develop new drill targets. In conjunction with the processing and interpretation of the 2025 MobileMT data, Greenridge plans to undertake an extensive geophysical data compilation, which would include the following historical datasets: The Sabre Property is fully-permitted for uranium exploration, including prospecting, geophysical surveys and drilling, until November 30, 2027. Engagement with local communities is ongoing with the goal of creating a mutually beneficial relationship between the Company and the residents of the Northern Athabasca region. About the Sabre Property The Sabre Property is located on the northern edge of the Athabasca Basin approximately thirty (30) kilometres west of Stony Rapids and ten (10) kilometres south of Fond du Lac, Saskatchewan. The Project is comprised of twenty-eight (28) claims totaling 23,178 hectares and is believed to be prospective for hosting unconformity-related uranium mineralization. The Fond du Lac uranium deposit, a shallow, sandstone-hosted deposit with a historic reserve of approximately 990,000 pounds (450,000 kilograms) averaging 0.25% U3O8 is located approximately 5.5 kilometres to the northwest of the Project's western boundary (please see Figure 1), which may demonstrate the prospectivity of the region for the deposition of uranium mineralization.1 Historical exploration at the Sabre Property has identified anomalous uranium-bearing sandstone boulders and outcrop at surface, numerous interpreted fault structures, and electromagnetic ('EM') conductors interpreted to lie at depths greater than three hundred (300) metres. Graphitic conductors can provide favourable conduits and host environments for the deposition of uranium at or near the unconformity between the Athabasca sandstones and the older Archean and Paleoproterozoic basement rocks. Drill testing for uranium within the current boundaries of the Sabre Property is limited to five (5) historical drill holes. Hole MNL-02, drilled by UEX Corporation in 2006, intersected anomalous dravite veining that returned a geochemical value of 2,059 parts per million boron in the sandstone at a depth of 290.5 metres, approximately 23 metres above the unconformity, which was reached at 322.4 metres.2 Dravite is recognized as a pathfinder clay alteration mineral that is often associated with uranium mineralization in the Athabasca Basin.
