Myriad to Accelerate Option on Initial 50% of Copper Mountain

Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - October 21, 2024) - Myriad Uranium Corp. (CSE: M) (OTCQB: MYRUF) (FSE: C3Q) ("Myriad" or the "Company"), which holds an earnable 75% interest in the Copper Mountain Uranium Project in Wyoming, USA, is pleased to announce that it is accelerating its option to acquire an initial 50% interest in Copper Mountain by issuing an aggregate of 1,093,702 Myriad common shares (each, a "Share") to Rush Rare Metals Corp. ("Rush") under the property option agreement dated October 18, 2023, as amended (see announcements here and here). Myriad is eligible to accelerate because its qualifying expenditures at Copper Mountain have now exceeded $1,500,000. Upon issuance of the Shares, Myriad will have met its obligations for 2024 and accelerated its 2025 payments, thereby securing 50% ownership. The maiden drill program at Copper Mountain is well underway and the Company is focused on meeting all its obligations under the option agreement expeditiously to cement full 75% ownership.

Thomas Lamb, Myriad's CEO, said, "Based on our historic data and the success of our field program thus far in validating that data, we are more and more convinced of the potential scale and quality of the Copper Mountain Uranium Project. We will continue to move forward aggressively with our work programs to unlock the potential of the Project and to earn our full 75% as quickly as practicable."

The 1,093,702 Shares have an aggregate value of $400,000, representing a deemed price per Share of approximately $0.365, calculated based on the 10 day value-weighted average price of the Company's common shares, as stipulated in the option agreement. Upon issuance, expected to be on October 25, 2024, the Shares will be subject to a hold period of four months and a day pursuant to applicable securities laws.

Peter Smith, Rush's CEO, said, "Myriad has done an outstanding job as our earn-in partner at Copper Mountain. Not only have they vastly expanded the project's overall potential by spearheading large-scale expansion of the claim area, which now includes several new highly prospective zones, all based on our cache of historical data and tens of millions in previous exploration spending by Union Pacific and others, but they have also started an extensive drill program which we hope will start to confirm and expand on some already highly significant historical resources. We are certainly lucky to have them as a partner, and we very much welcome their increased ownership interest in the project. Both Myriad and Rush stand to benefit from our expanding understanding of the massive potential of Copper Mountain in Wyoming, arguably the world's best uranium jurisdiction today."

Copper Mountain saw extensive drilling and development by Union Pacific during the late 1970s including the development of a mine plan to fuel a planned fleet of California Edison reactors. Operations ceased in 1980 before mining could commence due to falling uranium prices.
