Vancouver, British Columbia--(ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com - February 4, 2026) - Military Metals Corp. (CSE: MILI) (OTCQB: MILIF) (FSE: QN90) (the "Company" or "MILI") is pleased to report the additional analytical results of the Company's definition drilling campaign at the 100% owned flagship Trojárová Antimony-Gold Project (the "Project") in Slovakia as announced on November 4, 2025. The 2025 drilling campaign was designed to confirm historical drilling results and to support SLR Consulting's work towards establishing a current mineral resource estimate on the Project, which the company anticipates delivery of by the end of Q1, 2026, further discussed in the Company's January 9, 2025 announcement.These priority assay results represent the main mineralized zone from the third hole of the program, 25-TVA-003.Highlights of the Results from hole 25-TVA-003 Include:23.5 drilled (m) of 3.3 g/t Gold over a true width of 20.2m from 148.9m to 172.4mIncluding: 4.0m of 10.52 g/t Au over a true width of 3.4m from 157.9m to 161.9m1.9m of 2.53% Antimony over a true width of 1.6m from 169.9m to 171.8mScott Eldridge, Chief Executive Officer of the Company, commented, "We are thrilled with the second tranche of assays as we continue to see antimony grades that are consistent with historical results and higher than anticipated gold grades within the Trojárová Deposit. These strong gold results present the Company with new exploration opportunities that we are excited to evaluate. Trojárová represents the only antimony deposit in the European Union being advanced by modern mineral exploration and demonstrates characteristics that place it among the leading antimony projects globally. At a time when the need for secure, domestically sourced critical minerals is more pressing than ever, these results strengthen the project's potential importance to, and alignment with, the EU's objective of building a dependable, home-grown supply of essential raw materials."The Company additionally announces that logging and sampling of all drill core from the program is complete and all samples have successfully been delivered to ALS Laboratories in Roșia Montană, Romania for analysis. Additional results for all holes are pending.Table 1. Complete table of analytical results discussed in this release.

Sampled intervals were identified by logging geologists and assigned a unique sample identification number. Samples were split in two halves using a diamond bladed saw with one half remaining in the core box as a permanent record and the half placed in a plastic sample bag, both marked with a waterproof tag bearing the unique sample number which was also written on the sample bag in permanent marker. Samples were transported from the Company's secure facility by private courier to ALS Laboratories in Romania for geochemical analysis. ALS Laboratories is an independent ISO/IEC 17025:2017 and ISO 9001:2015 certified commercial laboratory with no relationship to the Company. The samples were analyzed using multi-element package ME_ICP41a and for gold using fire assay package Au-AA25. ME_ICP41a is an ore grade package involving digestion of a 0.4g sample by aqua regia with an Inductively coupled plasma - atomic emission spectrometry (ICP-AES) finish. The Au-AA25 fire assay method is an ore grade analysis using a 30g aliquot. The aliquot is mixed with flux composed of PbO and SiO2 with variable amounts of borax, soda ash and other reagents. The flux and sample are mixed, then heated at high temperature (>1,000°C) to decompose rock lattices and allow gold within the sample to be collected into a lead button. The button is placed in a porous cupel and heated again in an oxidizing environment to convert lead to lead oxide that is absorbed into the cupel, leaving the precious metals behind as a doré bead or prill. The gold content of the prill is then determined by atomic adsorption spectrometry.Both analyses are preceded by the preparation package Prep-31Y whereby the entire sample is crushed to 70% passing 2mm, a 250g split is collected by rotary splitter and pulverized to 85% passing 75 microns. Laboratory over-limits analysis methods were applied as required for both Sb and Au. A systematic QAQC protocol was employed that includes systematic insertion in the sample stream of certified reference materials and blank samples at a frequency of 1 in 10, plus analysis of duplicate pulp splits at a frequency of 1 in 30.About the Project and Historical ResourceDiscovered in the late 1970s, Trojárová was the focus of extensive surface and underground exploration over a 2km strike length from 1983 to 1995, with 63 core holes for a total of 14,330m, and 1.7km of underground workings completed. Efforts continued over the years as additional trenches were dug, and holes were drilled. Starting in 1990, underground development work began ultimately comprising a 300-meter-long adit connected to a 700-plus meter-long drive in the footwall of the mineralized zone with seven crosscuts into the mineralized zone for sampling purposes.These efforts culminated in a comprehensive study comprising drill logs, analyses, drill plans, maps and sections, deposit model studies, petrographic studies, metallurgical studies and more, now detailed in a multi-volume compendium of reports produced by the Slovak Geological Institute published in 1992, including a historical mineral resource estimate (see "Historical Resource Estimates" below). Per this historical estimate, at a cut-off grade of 1.0% antimony, Trojárová hosts 2.46 million tonnes averaging 2.47% antimony and 0.635 grams per tonne gold in a mineralized zone averaging 3.32 meters wide, containing approximately 60,000 tonnes of antimony in situ.Historical Resource EstimatesThe historical estimate related to the Trojárová Property was taken from a compendium produced by the Slovak Geological Survey, completed in March 1992 based on exploration work undertaking in the 1980s and 1990s. It is entitled (English translation): "FINAL JOB REPORT, PEZINOK-TROJAROVA, Geological Survey State Enterprise", report compendium number 78406 (Michel et al, 1992).The Slovak Geological Institute, the state agency that carried out all exploration and underground development work at Trojárová, classified the historical resources as "P1" and "C2" in the Slovak version of the Russian classification system, respectively. These are closest within the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy & Petroleum's ("CIM") classification system to "inferred mineral resources," which is defined by the CIM as that part of a mineral resource for which quantity and grade or quality are estimated on the basis of limited geological evidence gathered through appropriate sampling techniques from locations such as outcrops, trenches, pits, workings and drill holes.The historical work carried out appears comprehensive, detailed and at a professional standard. The Company considers this historical data to be relevant as the Company will use these data as a guide to plan future exploration programs. The Company also considers the data to be reliable for these purposes. A qualified person has not done sufficient work to classify the historical estimate as current, and the Company is not treating the historical estimate as current.Qualified PersonThe technical contents of this release were reviewed and approved by David Murray, P.Geo, VP-Exploration for Military Metals and a qualified person as defined by National Instrument 43-101.For more information about Military Metals Corp. and its critical minerals initiatives, please visit: https://www.militarymetalscorp.com.LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/military-metals/X: https://x.com/militarymetalsFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61564717587797About Military Metals Corp.

MIAMI, FL, Feb 2, 2026 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Digi Power X Inc. ("Digipower X" or the "Company") (Nasdaq:DGXX)(TSXV:DGX), a vertically integrated AI infrastructure company focused on the deployment of Tier-3 modular data centers powered by owned and controlled energy assets, today announced that Hans Vestberg, former Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Verizon Communications, has joined the Company as a senior advisor serving on its Advisory Board to support the Company's expansion strategy.Mr. Vestberg brings more than three decades of global leadership in mission-critical infrastructure, telecommunications networks, and large-scale capital deployment. He is widely recognized for leading Verizon's first commercial 5G deployment in 2018 and for advancing nationwide fiber, mobile edge computing, and next-generation network architectures.Prior to Verizon, Mr. Vestberg spent nearly three decades at Ericsson, including almost seven years as its Chief Executive Officer, where he helped build and operate global infrastructure facilitating approximately 35% of worldwide mobile traffic.Mr. Vestberg's appointment comes at a time when AI adoption is increasingly constrained, not by software or silicon, but by power availability, cooling capacity, and deployment speed. Digipower X is working on addressing this challenge through the deployment of the AI-Ready Modular Solution (ARMS) platform, designed to deliver Tier-3 modular AI data centers within approximately 180 days, supported by a vertically integrated power strategy and a growing portfolio of large-scale energy assets."Hans Vestberg built and scaled the physical infrastructure that helped enable the fiber, mobile, and 5G revolutions," said Michel Amar, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Digipower X. "He understands what most of the market overlooks: AI's bottleneck isn't algorithms or chips, it's power, cooling, and deployment speed. Hans knows how to execute infrastructure transformation at a national and global scale, and we expect his guidance will be invaluable as we expand our modular AI data center footprint.""I've spent over 30 years building the networks that move data," said Mr. Vestberg. "The next decade is about building the infrastructure that processes it. Digipower X is more than just a data center company. It controls its power, is developing the ability to deploy Tier-3 infrastructure in the near term, and is building a modular platform to address the exact constraints holding back large-scale AI deployment.

TSUKUBA, Japan, Feb 2, 2026 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Modern industry relies heavily on catalysts, which are substances that speed up chemical reactions. They’re vital in everything from manufacturing household chemicals to generating clean energy or recycling waste. However, designing new catalysts is challenging because their performance is affected by many interacting factors.A new tool uses a catalyst gene profiling, where catalysts are represented as symbolic sequences, making it easier for scientists to interpret data and design catalysts without a need for programming skills.A new tool developed by researchers at Hokkaido University, published in Science and Technology of Advanced Materials: Methods, will simplify the process by providing researchers with a way to easily view and explore data about catalysts, enabling them to identify patterns and relationships in catalyst datasets without needing advanced programming or computational skills.The tool takes advantage of an approach known as catalyst gene profiling, where catalysts are represented as symbolic sequences. This makes it easier for scientists to interpret the data and apply sequence-based analysis methods to design and improve catalysts. The tool itself is a web-based graphical interface that offers an intuitive and interactive way to investigate these catalyst profiles.“The system enables researchers to explore complex catalyst datasets, identify global trends, and recognize local features—all without requiring advanced programming skills,” explains Professor Keisuke Takahashi, who led the study. “By visualizing both the relationships among catalysts and the underlying gene-based features, the platform makes catalyst design more interpretable, accessible, and efficient, bridging the gap between data-driven analysis and practical experimental insight.”Users can view catalysts clustered together based on how similar their features are or how similar their sequences are. The tool also includes a heat map that offers insights into how the catalyst gene sequences are calculated. The different visualizations can be viewed side by side and are synchronized so they all update simultaneously when a user zooms in or selects a group of catalysts.The team plans to extend the tool to work with other material science datasets so it can be used more broadly in the field. They’re also working to include a predictive component. Integrating modeling and editing strategies would mean researchers could use the tool not only to explore existing catalysts but also to investigate new ideas for high-performance materials. In addition, they want to improve the tool’s collaborative features so that several researchers can work together to explore and annotate datasets, enabling a community-oriented, data-driven approach to material design and discovery.“Our goal is to make advanced materials research more intuitive, approachable, and impactful,” says Takahashi.Further informationKeisuke TakahashiHokkaido University keisuke.takahashi@sci.hokudai.ac.jpPaper: https://doi.org/10.1080/27660400.2025.2600689 About Science and Technology of Advanced Materials: Methods (STAM-M)STAM Methods is an open access sister journal of Science and Technology of Advanced Materials (STAM), and focuses on emergent methods and tools for improving and/or accelerating materials developments, such as methodology, apparatus, instrumentation, modeling, high-through put data collection, materials/process informatics, databases, and programming. https://www.tandfonline.com/STAM-MDr Kazuya SaitoSTAM Methods Publishing Director SAITO.Kazuya@nims.go.jpPress release distributed by Asia Research News for Science and Technology of Advanced Materials.

MOSCOW, Jan 31, 2026 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Expert Dialogues were held for the first time within the Open Dialogue framework at the Russia National Centre in Moscow on 30 January. The forum focused on five major megatrends shaping global economic, technological, and social development, bringing together international experts to explore how these forces will influence societies and industries in the decades ahead.Organized by the Russia National Centre in partnership with the Centre for Cross-Industry Expertise "The Third Rome" and supported by the Presidential Executive Office, the forum brought together experts from around the world to discuss economic, technological, and social transformations.Maksim Oreshkin, Deputy Head of the Russian Executive Administration for Global Trends, presented five key megatrends that, he said, are already shaping global development and will continue to influence the world in the coming decades."By 2026, Open Dialogue has become an international platform uniting experts from across the world to discuss the future of the planet, the global economy, and society," Oreshkin said. "Understanding these processes is essential for preparing for change and leveraging it in the interests of nations and, above all, people. Today, I will focus on five key megatrends — while not treating artificial intelligence as a separate trend, because it has already become an integral part of our lives."1. A New Global Economic Paradigm: Globalisation 2.0A shift from traditional globalisation to a more decentralised system was described. BRICS+ countries now play a growing role in the global economy, technological development, and demographic trends, while the Global South is increasingly engaging in direct trade and national-currency settlements."Globalisation hasn't ended; it has changed," Oreshkin said. "Sovereignty — at state, social, and economic levels — is now the key to competitiveness. Only countries that preserve all three levels can lead in a multipolar world."China, the USA, India, and Russia are identified as major global powers, while highlighting emerging growth centres such as Indonesia and "connector countries" like the United Arab Emirates. Digital platforms and decentralised networks are also becoming independent participants in the world economy.2. Platformisation and Institutional AutomationThe second megatrend highlights the rise of platforms and automation across all sectors. Platforms and algorithms are increasingly shaping decision-making in healthcare, education, finance, trade, and beyond."Platform solutions enhance efficiency and reduce transaction costs through self-adjusting algorithms," Oreshkin said. "Countries without technological sovereignty risk becoming dependent on external platforms, which can have strategic consequences during conflicts."3. Transformation of the Global Financial SystemIt was noted that traditional financial models face mounting challenges, including rising public debt, widening inequality, and geopolitical fragmentation. Technologies such as blockchain, artificial intelligence, and digital platforms are creating alternative financial mechanisms, including decentralised finance."The traditional model of cross-border payments is under pressure. Decentralised systems and digital technologies are reshaping the financial system," he said.4. Demographic Shifts and ChallengesThe fourth megatrend concerns global population dynamics. Global fertility rates have fallen sharply, with some countries facing critical declines. By the end of the 21st century, the working-age population may shrink significantly, while the proportion of elderly people rises, placing pressure on pension systems and social services."Even in Africa, the ratio of elderly to working-age population will rise to 30%, and globally to 56%," Oreshkin explained. "Education demand will decrease, but healthcare and social service needs will grow. These interconnected trends will amplify each other."5. Human Capital Development in the Technological EraThe final megatrend focuses on human capital in a rapidly changing technological environment.Autonomous systems, digital platforms, and artificial intelligence are transforming education, work, and healthcare, while biotechnologies expand human capabilities."AI is both a challenge and an opportunity," Oreshkin said. "It allows personalized learning paths and supports teachers.Professions are changing: mid-level specialists will be in demand, and companies must retrain employees from junior positions. The social sphere will also evolve, ensuring active longevity in the new demographic era."Global PerspectiveThroughout the presentation, Oreshkin illustrated each trend with real-life examples from different continents: a manager from Asia, a farmer from Africa, and a homemaker from Eastern Europe. He highlighted that innovations in Africa could improve education and healthcare, Eastern Europe may see rising living standards and more efficient social systems, and Asia will require reskilling to meet changing labor demands."The world has entered a period of significant change in finance, demography, and other spheres. States, companies, and individuals must be prepared. Those who understand and adapt will shape the future," Oreshkin concluded.Open Dialogue on AirThis year, Open Dialogue introduced a podcast format — Open Dialogue on Air — featuring global experts discussing key trends in international development. Participants include award-winning Chinese sci-fi writer Chen Qiufan, Dr. Selina Neri of the Future Readiness Academy, Dr. Rais Hussin of EMIR Research (Malaysia), Prof. Wang Feng of UC Irvine, and global strategist Dr. Parag Khanna.First held in April 2025 at the Russia National Centre, the Open Dialogue brought together over 3,000 experts from dozens of countries. By presidential decree, it will now be held annually.Social LinksTelegram: https://t.me/gowithrussiaVK: https://vk.com/gowithrussiaOK: https://ok.ru/gowithrussiaDZen: https://dzen.ru/gowithrussiaContact for the mediaBrand: Russia National CentreContact: Media teamEmail: Pressa@russia.ru Website: https://russia.ruEssay Submission: https://dialog.russia.ru/en/ Copyright 2026 ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com.

SHENZHEN, Jan 30, 2026 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - China Medical System Holdings Limited (“CMS” or the “Group”) is pleased to announce that its subsidiary, Dermavon Holdings Limited (“Dermavon”, an innovative pharmaceutical company specialized in skin health which is applying for a separate listing on the Main Board of The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited, please refer to the announcement published by the Group on 22 April 2025 for details) received approval from the National Medical Products Administration of China (NMPA) on 30 January 2026 for the New Drug Application (NDA) of ruxolitinib phosphate cream (the “Product”) for the treatment of non-segmental vitiligo with facial involvement in children aged 12 years and older and adult patients. It is the first and only targeted drug approved in China for vitiligo, addressing a significant unmet clinical need.Ruxolitinib phosphate cream is the first and only drug approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the European Medicines Agency (EMA) for repigmentation in nonsegmental vitiligo[1,2]. Prior to receiving formal NDA approval, the Group benefited from the “Early and Pilot Implementation” policy granted to the Hainan Free Trade Port and Lecheng Pilot Zone (“Lecheng Pilot Zone”), the “Hong Kong and Macau Medicine and Equipment Connect” policy, and the clinically urgently needed imported drug policies of the Beijing and Tianjin Free Trade Zones, and had already initiated the pilot application of ruxolitinib phosphate cream. Currently, Boao Super Hospital has prescribed ruxolitinib phosphate cream to over 7,000 patients with non-segmental vitiligo, and more than twenty hospitals in Guangzhou, Shenzhen, Dongguan, Foshan, Zhongshan, Zhuhai, Jiangmen, Huizhou, Beijing and Tianjin have provided prescription services for the Product, demonstrating its clinical potential.The product has shown positive results in both overseas clinical studies and the real-world study in China: in two identical Phase III double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled studies (TRuE-V1 and TRuE-V2) conducted overseas, the proportion of patients achieving the primary efficacy endpoint of at least 75% improvement in the Facial Vitiligo Area Score Index (F-VASI 75) after 24 weeks of treatment with ruxolitinib phosphate cream was 29.9% in both studies, significantly higher than the 7.5% and 12.9% in the placebo groups, respectively. Continued use up to 52 weeks showed sustained repigmentation[3]. In accordance with the relevant regulations of the Lecheng Pilot Zone's real-world data application pilot project, ruxolitinib phosphate cream underwent real-world study in China, demonstrating positive efficacy consistent with the results of overseas pivotal clinical studies. All secondary efficacy endpoints in both domestic and overseas clinical studies showed a benefit trend consistent with the primary efficacy endpoint, and the treatment effect for vitiligo continued to improve with prolonged treatment. Furthermore, according to safety monitoring data from the Lecheng Pilot Zone, no new safety event was identified, no adverse event (AE) leading to discontinuation or withdrawal of treatment occurred, and no study drug-related serious adverse event (SAE) occurred.This approval in vitiligo brings new hope for treatment to over 10 million vitiligo patients in China, addressing urgent clinical needs. At the same time, it will add to Dermavon’s product portfolio in the field of skin treatment, potentially synergizing with Dermavon’s commercialized innovative drug ILUMETRI (tildrakizumab injection), commercialized exclusive drug Hirudoid (mucopolysaccharide polysulfate cream), and a series of innovative drugs under development and dermatological skin care products, in terms of expert network and market resources, thereby potentially enhancing Dermavon's position in the field of skin health.Furthermore, the Phase III clinical trial in China of ruxolitinib phosphate cream for the treatment of mild to moderate atopic dermatitis (AD) has achieved positive results. Currently, the Group is actively advancing the NDA for ruxolitinib phosphate cream for the treatment of AD in China, which, if approved, will provide a new treatment option for a broader patient population with AD in China.About VitiligoVitiligo is a chronic autoimmune disease characterized by depigmentation of the skin, which results from the loss of pigment-producing cells known as melanocytes. It is estimated that there are approximately 10.3 million vitiligo patients in China and non-segmental vitiligo patients account for approximately 8.2 million[4]. Existing therapies, such as topical corticosteroids (TCS) and topical calcineurin inhibitors (TCIs), have clinical limitations, with adverse reactions or limited efficacy with long-term use. The NDA approval of ruxolitinib phosphate cream successfully fills the gap in targeted drug treatment for vitiligo and is of great landmark significance.More About Ruxolitinib Phosphate CreamRuxolitinib phosphate cream (Opzelura®), a novel cream formulation of the selective JAK1/JAK2 inhibitor ruxolitinib developed by Incyte, is approved for the topical treatment of nonsegmental vitiligo in adult and patients aged 12 years and older, and for the short-term and non-continuous chronic treatment of mild to moderate AD in patients aged 2 years and older without immunodeficiency in the U.S. In Europe, ruxolitinib phosphate cream is approved for the treatment of non-segmental vitiligo with facial involvement in adults and adolescents from 12 years of age.The Group, through a subsidiary of Dermavon entered into a Collaboration and License Agreement with Incyte for ruxolitinib phosphate cream on 2 December 2022, obtaining an exclusive license to develop, register and commercialize the Product in Mainland China, Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, Macau Special Administrative Region, Taiwan Region and eleven Southeast Asian countries (the “Territory”) and a non-exclusive license to manufacture the Product in the Territory.

HONG KONG, January 30, 2026 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) – As China’s first batch of Level 3 (L3) conditionally autonomous driving vehicles receives official market access, advanced smart driving is poised for its inaugural year of commercial explosion. At this pivotal juncture, Cheche Group Inc. (CCG) ("Cheche" or the "Company"), a leading global InsurTech platform, announced the signing of a strategic cooperation agreement with Volkswagen (Anhui) Digital Sales and Services Co., Ltd. (hereinafter "DSSO") and Beijing Cardif Airstar Property & Casualty Insurance Co., Ltd. (hereinafter "Cardif Airstar Insurance").This tripartite collaboration is more than just a deep dive into high-quality growth for New Energy Vehicle (NEV) insurance; it represents a core transition from "digitization" to "intelligence." The partnership establishes three strategic directions for synergy. First, it focuses on the transformation of product formats by leveraging Cheche’s SaaS platform to co-create an integrated "Insurance + Value-Added Services" package, enabling the efficient, one-stop fulfillment of high-value services. Second, it upgrades pricing capabilities by deeply integrating compliant driving data with dynamic vehicle information, utilizing AI-driven risk profiling to achieve differentiated precision pricing while addressing the complex challenge of liability determination in human-machine co-driving scenarios. Finally, it expands the ecosystem dimension by embedding insurance services throughout the vehicle sales and after-sales process, extending the business from a single policy to a full-lifecycle service ecosystem that encompasses renewal management and mobility protection.01. Smart Driving Insurance: Securing "Pricing Authority" in the L3 Mass Production EraTraditional auto insurance has long struggled with "human-machine co-driving" scenarios due to a lack of real-time dynamic data for liability determination and precise risk identification. Having served leading automakers such as Tesla, Li Auto, and Xiaomi, Cheche provides VW Anhui Digital with an embedded SaaS system centered on data attribution and dynamic pricing.Through this SaaS infrastructure, vehicle driving data is seamlessly synchronized with BNP Paribas Star’s actuarial models. This AI-driven joint risk profiling not only resolves the technical difficulties of liability judgment in smart driving scenarios but also delivers a "low-premium rewards for safe drivers," serving as a vital solution to the profitability challenges currently facing the NEV insurance industry.02. Ecosystem Breakthrough: Leveraging the "Xiaomi + Volkswagen DSSO" New Quality Productive ForcesInvestors are closely watching the cross-sector dynamics underpinning this collaboration. Cardif Airstar Insurance was co-founded by Xiaomi Group, Volkswagen Financial Services, and Cardif Airstar Insurance, combining the strengths of an internet giant, a global financial powerhouse, and a leading smart automaker.As the hub connecting these forces with Volkswagen’s Hefei Intelligent Electric Vehicle Center, Cheche is penetrating the world’s top smart driving supply chains. This is not merely system integration; it marks Cheche’s evolution into a digital operator within the "Vehicle-Battery-Charging-Insurance" integrated landscape. Amid policy tailwinds such as "New Quality Productive Forces," Cheche’s closed-loop ecosystem is becoming a definitive growth pole for insurance and tech capital.03. Scenario Transformation: From Transactional Policies to Full-Lifecycle OperationsIn 2026, as the automotive market shifts from a competition over hardware parameters to a competition over user experience, Cheche is helping DSSO deeply couple insurance services with the car-buying and after-sales journey. The integrated service package transforms insurance from a low-frequency tool into a high-frequency touchpoint for user engagement.Christian Koenig, After-sales Director of DSSO, noted that Cheche’s technical foundation allowed the partnership to advance rapidly from a high starting point. This "plug-and-play" empowerment capability, proven by mainstream automakers, has become a technical moat for Cheche in the capital markets.04. Conclusion: The Final Piece of the Trillion-Dollar Blue OceanThe year 2026 marks the point where NEV insurance evolves from scale expansion to intelligent upgrades. Cheche will continue to advance its AI pricing engine, driving the leap from digital to intelligent services.According to data released by the Ministry of Public Security on January 26, China’s NEV ownership reached 43.97 million units by the end of 2025, accounting for 12.01% of the total vehicle population—a growth rate exceeding 40% year-over-year. In this environment, those who define the insurance standards for the smart driving era will control the entry point to future mobility. With its high barriers to entry via OEM partnerships and forward-looking AI layouts, Cheche is racing toward becoming a leader in the trillion-dollar NEV insurance market.

HONG KONG, January 30, 2026 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) – A growing number of robotics and artificial intelligence companies backed by Shoucheng Holdings Limited are set to appear at China’s 2026 CMG New Year’s Gala, reflecting the investor’s expanding footprint across the country’s emerging automation and embodied intelligence sectors.The latest company to confirm its participation is Noetix Robotics, according to recent announcements. Shoucheng Holdings led the company’s financing round in 2024 and has continued to increase its investment through subsequent rounds, making it Noetix Robotics’ largest external investor, people familiar with the matter said.Noetix Robotics’ appearance adds to a lineup that already includes other Shoucheng-backed firms. Unitree Robotics, known for its quadruped and humanoid robots, was earlier named a robot partner of the 2026 Gala, marking its third appearance on the program. Beijing Galbot Co., Ltd., which focuses on embodied artificial intelligence systems, has also been designated by China Media Group as the Gala’s embodied large-model robot.The clustering of multiple portfolio companies on the same edition of the Gala places Shoucheng Holdings among a small group of investors with broad representation on one of China’s most-watched annual broadcasts. The event, which regularly draws hundreds of millions of viewers, has increasingly been used as a platform to highlight advances in artificial intelligence, robotics and advanced manufacturing.China Media Group, the organizer of the Gala, has in recent years expanded the role of technology-focused programming, aligning with national policy priorities around intelligent manufacturing and industrial upgrading. While participation in the Gala does not directly translate into revenue, companies and investors see it as an important signal of technical maturity and policy relevance.Unitree Robotics’ repeated appearances underscore this dynamic. The company has previously used the Gala to demonstrate improvements in motion control, balance and coordination, capabilities that are critical as robots move from laboratory environments into commercial and industrial settings. Its continued inclusion suggests confidence in its engineering progress and deployment readiness.Galbot’s designation as the Gala’s embodied large-model robot reflects a broader shift in focus from mechanical performance alone to systems that integrate perception, reasoning and physical execution. Embodied artificial intelligence—where large models are combined with real-world robotic interaction—has become a priority area for Chinese research institutions and technology companies as generative AI expands beyond software applications.The addition of Noetix Robotics introduces another layer to the lineup. The company concentrates on robotic power systems and core engineering components, segments that are increasingly viewed as strategic as China seeks to reduce reliance on imported technologies and strengthen domestic supply chains. Shoucheng Holdings’ sustained backing of Noetix Robotics highlights an investment strategy that spans both complete robotic systems and foundational hardware.Shoucheng Holdings has steadily increased its exposure to robotics over the past several years, backing companies involved in full-stack robotics, embodied intelligence and critical components. Rather than focusing on a single technological approach, the firm has adopted a portfolio strategy that combines capital investment with access to application scenarios and commercialization platforms.One such platform is the Shoucheng Robot Tech Experience Store, a robotics-focused retail and demonstration network operated by the company. While not all Gala participants are Shoucheng investees, some companies, including MagicLab Robotics Technology (Wuxi) Co., Ltd., have placed products such as robotic dogs within the platform’s offline spaces for demonstrations and user engagement. MagicLab was named a strategic intelligent robotics partner for the Year of the Horse CMG New Year’s Gala earlier this year.By linking high-profile media exposure with physical demonstration and sales environments, Shoucheng Holdings aims to accelerate the transition from technology showcase to market adoption, according to people familiar with the platform’s positioning. The approach mirrors a broader trend among Chinese industrial investors to combine financial backing with scenario-based deployment.Industry analysts say the concentration of Shoucheng-backed companies on the 2026 Gala stage illustrates how China’s robotics sector is evolving from isolated prototypes toward more integrated industrial ecosystems. The presence of companies spanning full robotic platforms, embodied intelligence and core engineering components suggests increasing specialization and coordination across the value chain.As preparations for the 2026 CMG New Year’s Gala continue, robotics and artificial intelligence are expected to remain central themes. For Shoucheng Holdings, the event offers a snapshot of how its investments are converging on a national platform, reflecting a strategy that has shifted from selective bets to a broader, system-oriented approach to industrial technology.While the commercial impact of Gala exposure is difficult to quantify, market participants increasingly view the lineup as an indicator of which technologies and companies are gaining momentum within China’s rapidly changing AI and automation landscape.

HONG KONG, January 29, 2026 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) – Standard Chartered and the Hong Kong Trade Development Council (HKTDC) have jointly released the latest Standard Chartered Greater Bay Area Business Confidence Index (GBAI), which revealed that the business sentiment for most companies in the Greater Bay Area (GBA) remained steady amid persistent external uncertainties in Q4-2025. The GBA Index is released quarterly in January, April, July, and October each year.Following a rebound in the previous quarter, the GBAI indices showed a moderate quarter-on-quarter retreat in the fourth quarter of 2025. This has been seen as the result of diminishing returns from front-loading activities and from a more cautious approach to investment, financing, and capacity utilisation amid ongoing external uncertainties.The “current performance” index for business activity in Q4 retreated to 50.3 from 54.7 in the previous quarter, while the “expectations” index dropped to 51 from 55.7. Despite the drop, both indices remained in expansionary territory, indicating that GBA businesses still maintained a broadly positive outlook.Turning to the sub-indices, a mixed picture emerged for both “current performance” and “expectations” for the quarter overall. More specifically, with regard to “current performance”, the “new orders”, “fixed asset investment” and “profit” sub-indices all fell below the 50 watershed level. This, however, was seen as a correction following the end of the front-loading process in earlier quarters. Subdued growth in loans and fixed-asset investment in the Chinese Mainland also contributed to this slight downward trend.On the contrary, the “expectations” remained relatively positive, with sub-indices for “production/sales”, “new orders” and “profits” all staying in expansionary territory in the fourth quarter last year. Taken together, these upbeat outcomes suggest a strong likelihood that robust demand will persist through the first quarter of 2026 and beyond.In terms of individual GBA city evaluations, Hong Kong's readings were well above the survey average. This confirmed that the city’s economic rebound remained on course at year-end, with the “current performance” sub-index up 5.7 points to 57.9 and the “expectations” reading up 1.8 points to 55.4. Overall, this sustained recovery in growth momentum was attributed to the city’s “professional services” and “retail/wholesale” sectors.Wing Chu, Deputy Director of Research, HKTDC, said: “Following the extension of the trade truce between the US and China, business sentiment in Hong Kong continued to improve, allowing the city to outperform its peer cities across the GBA. This strength stands in contrast to the broader moderation seen in the overall GBA indices amid persistent external uncertainties. This momentum in Hong Kong's recovery is expected to remain intact, supported by buoyant business activity and the professional services sector's solid performance– key factors that underscore the city’s recovery trajectory. The HKTDC will continue to proactively support GBA enterprises in leveraging Hong Kong's professional services to ‘go global’ and capitalise on opportunities in emerging markets, including those in the Middle East.”In order to get a greater understanding of the wider aspirations of GBA businesses, the survey also examined their interest in the expansion into the Middle East. Encouragingly, over half of respondents (54.8%) expressed interest in expanding into the Middle East, with the UAE (53.9%) and Saudi Arabia (53.2%) selected as the top two priority markets.Digging deeper into these findings, of the companies that have already started or are interested in expanding into the Middle East, nearly 60% were engaged in trading/ distribution activity. This was followed by manufacturing (42.7%) and logistics/ storage (28.3%).Despite widespread optimism about emerging opportunities in the Middle East, many GBA businesses were also aware they faced several challenges in ensuring success. Overall, the top three concerns here were: “lack of understanding of local laws and regulations” (50.4%), “opaque local regulatory environment and restrictions on foreign investment” (43.1%) and “cultural and business differences” (42%).Crucially, to help manage such challenges, 99.2% of respondents saw Hong Kong’s world-class services as pivotal to the success of their Middle East expansion plans. Particular emphasis was placed on the decisive contribution of the city’s professional services sector, especially in successfully navigating local regulatory and compliance requirements.Hunter Chan, Economist, Greater China, Standard Chartered, said: “With increasingly complex geopolitical risks, global corporates not only actively diversify their supply chains but also explore new markets in recent years, thereby giving rise to numerous emerging trade corridors. The thematic survey found that the GBA corporates are interested in entering the Middle East, which aligns with Hong Kong Government’s policy focus to set up the ‘GoGlobal Task Force’ to leverage Hong Kong’s advantages as a ‘go global’ platform, and deepen economic ties with the Middle East. The survey also found that almost all respondents indicate that Hong Kong services are needed to help in expansion into the Middle East to address the challenges posed by local regulations and cultural differences. With its advantage in professional services, Hong Kong can further leverage its unique position as a ‘super-connector’, becoming a springboard for enterprises to develop overseas markets.”About the GBAIThe Standard Chartered Greater Bay Area Business Confidence Index (GBAI), jointly presented by Standard Chartered and Hong Kong Trade Development Council, is the first forward-looking quarterly survey in the market that examines business sentiment and synergistic effects in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area ("Greater Bay Area" or "GBA"). The index is computed from the analysis of more than 1,000 responses from GBA companies regarding their overall operations, business environment, and expansion plans. The index includes five sub-indices that indicate business confidence for each industry, including manufacturing & trading, retail & wholesale, financial services, professional services, and innovation & technology.

Over the two-day forum, over 150 financial officials, leaders of multilateral organisations, representatives from financial institutions and enterprises took the stages as speakers. The forum also launched the inaugural Global Business Summit to further integrate finance with key industries, driving innovation and economic development, while injecting strong momentum into Hong Kong as it embarks on a new chapter in the year ahead by strengthening its role through financial empowerment.The Asian Financial Forum kicked off International Financial Week 2026, marking the first significant financial event in the region this year.

Dr Barroso said: “What we are seeing now is a technological race. This creates instability. And so, the major companies in the world – American, European, but also in Asia – the leaders want to see how they can position their corporations in a favourable position facing the geopolitical risk and the technological risk.”Furthermore, at the Panel Discussion on Global Economic Outlook, Dr Zhu Min, Member of the Senior Expert Advisory Committee of the China Center for International Economic Exchanges (CCIEE), spoke about the opportunities that renminbi internationalisation will bring to Hong Kong. He said: “I see competition among the three major currencies. RMB internationalisation requires liquidity and a bond market – Hong Kong is perfectly positioned to provide this service.”At the forum yesterday, the Financial Services and the Treasury Bureau signed a cooperation agreement with the Shanghai Gold Exchange, marking a significant milestone in strengthening collaboration between the Hong Kong and Shanghai gold markets. The agreement established a high-level cooperative governance framework for Hong Kong’s central gold clearing system, explored opportunities for coordinated development of physical infrastructure, and enhanced market connectivity.

The summit opened with welcome remarks delivered by Paul Chan, Financial Secretary of the HKSAR Government, and Prof Frederick Ma, Chairman of the HKTDC.Prof Ma said: “Financial services help industries and investors maximise their investments and their impact. This will have far-reaching benefits, supporting continued technological breakthroughs, as well as closer integration and sustainable development. In this sense, the Global Business Summit reflects the greater emphasis we are placing on co-creation at this year’s AFF. In these unpredictable times, working together on shared goals adds to the agility and resilience of our economies, our industries and businesses, and our communities. Hong Kong, under the “One Country, Two Systems” arrangement, is perfectly suited to host these conversations and promote cross-sector collaboration, as a superconnector, super value-adder and supercollaborator. Our city is home to businesses from around the world. It is a bustling two-way gateway between the Chinese Mainland and the rest of the world – helping high-growth enterprises from the Chinese Mainland to go global, while enabling high-growth foreign enterprises to enter China.”A Pledging Ceremony today demonstrated the commitment of HKSAR Government, the HKTDC and AFF Partners in working together to assist Chinese Mainland enterprises in going global via the Hong Kong platform and to integrate into overall national development.

They examined Hong Kong’s critical role as a gateway for international enterprises entering the Chinese Mainland market.During the session, Mohammed Alardhi, Executive Chairman, Investcorp, said: “The China-Gulf Cooperation Council corridor is vital. We’re connecting companies throughout the corridor, implementing Chinese technology there, and buying Chinese vehicles for logistics. It bridges the world’s second-largest economy and the Gulf region, which is transforming with vast opportunities and capital. When you compare the valuations of Chinese companies and technologies with those from the West, there’s no comparison. There is a significant appetite in the Gulf region to partner with them.”The summit featured a series of discussion sessions covering high-growth, high-value sectors, including biomedicine and healthcare, green energy, new consumer trends, artificial intelligence and robotics. The speaker lineup was powerful. In the session titled “Biomedicine 2026: Trends, Challenges and Opportunities”, Amgen and Merck highlighted key challenges facing the industry; notably the high cost and lengthy cycles of R&D.

Rouyn-Noranda, Quebec--(ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com - January 27, 2026) - Radisson Mining Resources Inc. (TSXV: RDS) (OTCQX: RMRDF) ("Radisson" or the "Company") is pleased to announce assay results from seven new drill holes completed at its 100%-owned O'Brien Gold Project ("O'Brien" or the "Project") located in the Abitibi region of Québec. The seven holes are the latest completed as part of the Company's ongoing 140,000-metre step-out drill program designed to test the overall scope of gold mineralization at the Project (see Radisson news release dated October 16, 2025). Three separate and equally significant results are contained within the new data (summarized below, and in Figure 1):1. Broad Mineralized Zones with High-Grade Vein Intercepts at "Trend #1", Extending New Mineralization to 1,450 Metres Vertical Depth, 375 Metres Below the Existing Mineral ResourcesOB-25-322W3 intersected 23.37 grams per tonne ("g/t") gold ("Au") over 4.0 metres (core length) including 60.60 g/t Au over 1.5 metres and 2.50 g/t Au over 19.0 metres including 4.94 g/t Au over 1.5 metres and including 3.93 g/t Au over 3.0 metres;OB-25-322W4 intersected 2.37 g/t Au over 11.5 metres including 10.89 g/t Au over 1.0 metre;2. Completion of Final 14th and 15th Wedges from Pilot Hole OB-24-337, Continuing the Delineation of New Mineralization in Multiple Veins Beneath the Historic Mine Workings OB-25-337W15 intersected 5.38 g/t Au over 4.5 metres including 8.86 g/t Au over 1.5 metres;OB-25-337W14 intersected 1.49 g/t Au over 16.1 metres including 4.26 g/t Au over 1.5 metres and including 3.37 g/t Au over 1.5 metres;3. Deepest Ever Intercept Beneath the Historic Mine with a New, Deep Pilot Hole Extending Mineralization to 1,620 Metres Vertical Depth and Providing Platform for Further DrillingOB-25-378 intersected 15.70 g/t Au over 1.1 metres;Matt Manson, President and CEO: "This latest batch of drill assays from O'Brien contain notable results from several areas of focus in our 140,000 metre step-out drill program. We continue to push the limits of known mineralization at O'Brien outwards and downwards. Two wedges completed from drill hole OB-24-322 demonstrate more characteristic zones of broad and mineralized alteration with high-grade quartz-sulphide-gold veins, pushing the known extents of the Project's "Trend #1" to a new depth extent of 1,450 metres. Beneath the historic O'Brien Mine, we have been reporting for the past 12 months the progressive delineation of a broad system of high-grade veins showing good continuity with the former mine workings above. The final two wedges drilled from the pilot hole OB-24-337 have also successfully intercepted these veins with reliable consistency. In fact, each of the fifteen wedges drilled from this pilot hole have returned vein intercepts with grades and thicknesses consistent with the Project's mineral resources: a 100% success rate in this developing area. Now, new pilot hole OB-25-378, representing a step-down in depth again, has intercepted further, multiple mineralized zones and high-grades, pushing this area of gold mineralization down to 1,620 metres vertical depth, the deepest intercepts yet achieved at the Project. We have not yet found the bottom of the O'Brien gold system. Six rigs are active at the Project site, with two more rigs mobilizing shortly."Figure 1: Longitudinal Vertical Section and Plan View of Gold Vein Mineralization and Mineral Resources at the O'Brien Gold Project, with Today's Drill Holes IllustratedTo view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/10977/281737_74e08c8d6491c912_001full.jpgTable 1: Assay Results from Select Drill HolesDDHZone From(m) To(m) CoreLength(m)Au g/t -UncutHost LithologyOB-25-322W3Trend #1 1,379.51,381.01.503.24V3-S 1,443.51,444.81.305.31POR-S 1,472.0 1,491.0 19.002.50 S1p/POR-N Including 1,477.0 1,478.5 1.504.94 S1p Including 1,484.5 1,487.5 3.003.93 S1p 1,531.0 1,535.0 4.0023.37 POR-N/V3-N Including 1,532.5 1,534.0 1.5060.60 POR-N/V3-N OB-25-322W4Trend #1 1,250.01,251.51.503.85V3-S 1,341.5 1,353.0 11.502.37 POR-S Including 1,347.5 1,348.5 1.0010.89 POR-S OB-25-337W14O'Brien Mine East 1,206.01,210.04.003.13V3-S 1,209.01,210.01.004.70V3-S 1,215.4 1,231.5 16.101.49 POR-S/V3-CEN Including 1,218.0 1,219.5 1.504.26 POR-S/V3-CEN Including 1,225.5 1,227.0 1.503.37 POR-S/V3-CEN 1,237.51,240.32.803.81V3-CEN 1,239.01,240.31.307.11V3-CEN 1,272.01,273.51.508.48S1pOB-25-337W15O'Brien Mine East 1,247.01,251.04.005.11V3-CEN 1,248.01,249.01.009.84V3-CEN 1,306.0 1,310.5 4.505.38 V3-N Including 1,307.5 1,309.0 1.508.86 V3-N OB-25-377W1O'Brien Mine West 1,204.9 1,214.3 9.403.48 V3-CEN Including 1,206.4 1,210.7 4.305.92 V3-CEN 1,224.91,226.01.103.00V3-CEN / S1p 1,243.01,245.02.004.74S1pIncluding1,244.01,245.01.006.44S1pOB-25-377W2O'Brien Mine West 1,302.01,303.01.008.09POR-N 1,327.71,329.82.103.67V3-NOB-25-378O'Brien Mine East 1,665.51,667.01.503.07POR-S 1,673.8 1,674.9 1.1015.70 POR-S 1,681.31,682.31.003.47POR-S 1,702.61,704.01.403.26V3-CEN Notes on Calculation of Drill Intercepts:The O'Brien Gold Project Mineral Resource Estimate effective May 6, 2025 ("MRE") utilizes a 2.20 g/t Au bottom cut-off, a US$2,000 gold price, a minimum mining width of 1.2 metres, and a 40 g/t Au upper cap on composites. Intercepts presented in Table 1 are calculated with a 3.00 g/t Au bottom cut-off. True widths, based on depth of intercept and drill hole inclination, are estimated to be 30-80% of core length. Table 2 presents additional drill intercepts calculated with a 1.00 g/t bottom cut-off over a minimum 1.0 metre core length so as to illustrate the frequency and continuity of mineralized intervals within which high-grade gold veins at O'Brien are developed. Lithology Codes: PON-S3: Pontiac Sediments; V3-S, V3-N, V3-CEN: Basalt-South, North, Central; S1P, S3P: Conglomerate; POR-S, POR-N: Porphyry South, North; TX: Crystal Tuff; ZFLLC: Larder Lake-Cadillac Fault Zone.Gold Mineralization at O'BrienGold mineralizing quartz-sulphide veins at O'Brien occur within a thin band of interlayered mafic volcanic rocks, conglomerates, and porphyritic andesitic sills of the Piché Group occurring in contact with the east-west oriented Larder Lake-Cadillac Break ("LLCB"). Gold, along with pyrite and arsenopyrite, is typically associated with shearing and a pervasive biotite alteration, and developed within multiple Piché Group lithologies and, occasionally, the hanging-wall Pontiac and footwall Cadillac meta-sedimentary rocks.As mapped at the historic O'Brien mine, and now replicated in the modern drilling, individual veins are generally narrow, ranging from several centimetres up to several metres in thickness. Multiple veins occur sub-parallel to each other, as well as sub-parallel to the Piché lithologies and the LLCB. Individual veins have well-established lateral continuity, with steeply plunging grade shoots developed over significant lengths. Based on the historic data available, it is clear that the former mine was "high-graded", with mining focussed on a main central stope and parallel veins identified but left undeveloped.The historic O'Brien mine produced over half a million ounces of gold from such veins and shoots at an average grade exceeding 15 g/t Au and over a vertical extent of at least 1,000 metres. Modern exploration has focussed on delineating well developed vein mineralization to the east of the historic mine, with additional high-grade shoots becoming evident in the exploration data over what has been described as a series of repeating trends ("Trend #s 0 to 5").Figure 2: Deep Step-Out Drill Holes Completed and/or Published by the Company since December 2024To view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/10977/281737_74e08c8d6491c912_003full.jpgStep-Out Drilling at O'BrienSince the end of 2024, Radisson has been pursuing a program of broad step-outs beneath the historic O'Brien Gold mine and the existing mineral resources designed to test the extent of mineralization at the Project. This drilling is accomplished with pilot holes followed by wedges and directional drilling to maximize drill efficiency. On October 16, 2025, Radisson announced the expansion of the step-out drill program to 140,000 metres employing an eventual eight drill rigs. Since this program began, 84% of completed drill holes have intersected gold mineralization with grades and core-lengths consistent with the Project's Mineral Resources (Table 2).Table 2: Drill Results Published for the O'Brien Gold Project since December 2024Date of PublicationTotal Number of Drill HolesDrill Holes withIntercepts >+3g/tSuccess Rate (%)January 27th, 202677100%January 6th, 20266583%28th October 2025151387%8th September, 2025151387%16th July 2025141179%2nd April 202533100%26th February 2025201575%16th December 202411100%Total816884% The origin of the step-out drill program was the deep pilot hole OB-24-337, which was the first exploration drill hole located below the former mine workings since mining ended in 1957. This hole intersected 31.24 g/t Au over 8.0 metres, including 242.0 g/t Au over 1.0 metre at approximately 1,500 metres vertical depth (see Radisson news release dated December 16, 2024). With today's results, a full complement of assay results from all fifteen wedges drilled from OB-24-337 have now been reported and up to eight gold-bearing veins have been delineated. Drilling in this area will now focus on new pilot hole OB-25-378 which has been successfully completed to a vertical depth of 1,740 metres. This hole has returned multiple zones of alteration and gold mineralization, showing continuity with the multiple-vein system modelled above, and a high-grade vein intercept of 15.70 g/t Au over 1.1 metres at 1,620 metres vertical depth, the deepest intercept ever returned at the Project. Taken together, the results extend the area of new mineralization beneath the historic mine workings to approximately 250 metres (east-west) by 600 metres (vertical). Drilling of the first wedge from pilot hole OB-25-378 is currently underway.Today's release includes drill assays from two wedges completed from pilot hole OB-24-322 testing the downward extension of the Project's "Trend #1". Both wedges returned broad zones of mineralized alteration with high-grade vein intercepts, including OB-25-322W3 with 23.37 g/t Au over 4.0 metres including 60.60 g/t Au over 1.5 metres. Recall that drilling in this area has returned similarly high-grade intercepts, including OB-24-324 with 27.61 g/t Au over 6.0 metres including 102.0 g/t Au over 1.1 metres and 6.83 g/t Au over 10.0 metres including 40.2 g/t Au over 1.5 metres, and the OB-24-322 pilot hole itself which returned 8.75 g/t Au over 5.2 metres including 27.2 g/t Au over 1.4 metres (Figure 3 and Radisson news release dated September 24, 2024). These results, taken together, have extended gold mineralization at Trend #1 to 1,450 metres vertical depth, 375 metres below the current Mineral Resources.Today's release also includes results from two wedges from pilot hole OB-25-377 located between the western and eastern portions of the former mine (Figure 1). These holes have returned multiple zones of mineralization, such as OB-25-377W1 with 3.48 g/t Au over 9.4 metres including 5.92 g/t Au over 4.3 metres. This area had previously been thought to have lower potential for new mineral resources, given the absence of mining stopes above. The new intercepts illustrate the broad extent of the O'Brien gold mineralizing system and the high-grading nature of the former mine.Figure 3: Vertical Cross Section through "Trend #1 with Pilot Holes OB-24-322 and 324, and WedgesTo view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/10977/281737_74e08c8d6491c912_004full.jpgTable 3: Detailed Assay Results (see "Notes on Calculation of Drill Intercepts")DDHZone From(m) To(m) CoreLength(m)Au g/t -UncutHost LithologyOB-25-322W3Trend #1 1,379.5 1,381.0 1.503.24V3-S 1,440.51,444.84.302.48POR-SIncluding 1,443.5 1,444.8 1.305.31POR-S 1,472.01,491.019.002.50S1p/POR-NIncluding 1,477.0 1,478.5 1.504.94S1pIncluding 1,484.5 1,487.5 3.003.93S1p 1,531.0 1,535.0 4.0023.37POR-N/V3-NIncluding 1,532.5 1,534.0 1.5060.60POR-N/V3-N 1,538.21,539.51.301.28S3pOB-25-322W4Trend #1 1,247.01,251.54.502.57V3-SIncluding 1,250.0 1,251.5 1.503.85V3-S 1,334.01,335.51.501.55POR-S 1,341.51,353.011.502.37POR-SIncluding 1,347.5 1,348.5 1.0010.89POR-S 1,360.21,364.24.001.10POR-S 1,377.51,383.56.001.28S1p 1,405.01,406.51.501.40POR-NOB-25-337W14O'Brien Mine East 1,109.01,110.51.503.06PON-S3 1,188.01,189.51.501.24V3-S 1,195.51,197.01.501.81V3-S 1,206.0 1,210.0 4.003.13V3-SIncluding 1,209.0 1,210.0 1.004.70V3-S 1,215.41,231.516.101.49POR-S/V3-CENIncluding 1,218.0 1,219.5 1.504.26POR-S/V3-CENIncluding 1,225.5 1,227.0 1.503.37POR-S/V3-CEN 1,237.5 1,240.3 2.803.81V3-CENIncluding 1,239.0 1,240.3 1.307.11V3-CEN 1,264.51,266.01.501.05S1p 1,272.0 1,273.5 1.508.48S1p 1,283.31,284.81.502.09TX 1,328.01,329.51.502.58S3pOB-25-337W15O'Brien Mine East 1,239.01,240.11.101.11POR-S 1,247.0 1,251.0 4.005.11V3-CENIncluding 1,248.0 1,249.0 1.009.84V3-CEN 1,282.51,284.01.501.06S1p 1,293.01,294.01.001.13POR-N 1,296.01,297.41.401.74POR-N 1,298.91,300.01.101.34V3-N 1,306.0 1,310.5 4.505.38V3-NIncluding 1,307.5 1,309.0 1.508.86V3-NOB-25-377W1O'Brien Mine West 1,196.91,197.91.001.44V3-CEN 1,204.9 1,214.3 9.403.48V3-CENIncluding 1,206.4 1,210.7 4.305.92V3-CEN 1,222.01,227.55.501.94V3-CEN / S1pIncluding 1,224.9 1,226.0 1.103.00V3-CEN / S1p 1,235.01,236.51.502.80S1p 1,243.0 1,245.0 2.004.74S1pIncluding 1,244.0 1,245.0 1.006.44S1p 1,249.01,250.01.001.18S1p 1,271.51,272.71.201.30V3-NOB-25-377W2O'Brien Mine West 1,206.61,210.53.901.76POR-S / V3-CEN 1,291.01,296.05.001.10S1p 1,297.41,304.57.102.03POR-NIncluding 1,302.0 1,303.0 1.008.09 POR-N 1,327.71,333.55.801.97V3-NIncluding 1,327.7 1,329.8 2.103.67V3-NOB-25-378O'Brien Mine East 1,653.01,654.51.501.10POR-S 1,664.01,667.03.002.14POR-SIncluding 1,665.5 1,667.0 1.503.07 POR-S 1,673.8 1,674.9 1.1015.70 POR-S 1,681.31,689.98.601.15POR-SIncluding 1,681.3 1,682.3 1.003.47 POR-S 1,701.51,704.02.502.40V3-CENIncluding 1,702.6 1,704.0 1.403.26 V3-CEN 1,713.51,715.01.503.47S1p 1,746.51,748.01.502.01TX Table 4: Drill Hole Collar Information for Holes contained in this News Release HELLODDHZoneEastingNorthingAzimuthDipHole Length (m)OB-25-322W3Trend #169419953450980-85.0687.0OB-25-322W4Trend #169419953450980-85.0650.0OB-25-337W14O'Brien Mine East6937005345070346-79.5460.0OB-25-337W15O'Brien Mine East6937005345070346-79.5476.0OB-25-377W1O'Brien Mine West6932725345054345-79.5686.0OB-25-377W2O'Brien Mine West6932725345054345-79.5710.0OB-25-378O'Brien Mine East6936405345014357-83.01820.0Notes:Hole lengths for wedges represent meterage from point of wedge. Drill holes OB-24-322 and OB-24-337 were completed in 2024 while their wedge branches were drilled in 2025.QA/QCAll drill cores in this campaign are NQ in size. Assays were completed on sawn half-cores, with the second half kept for future reference. The samples were analyzed using standard fire assay procedures with Atomic Absorption (AA) finish at ALS Laboratory Ltd, in Val-d'Or, Québec. Samples yielding a grade higher than 10 g/t Au were analyzed a second time by fire assay with gravimetric finish at the same laboratory. Mineralized zones containing visible gold were analyzed with metallic sieve procedure. Standard reference materials, blank samples and duplicates were inserted prior to shipment for quality assurance and quality control (QA/QC).Starting in December 2025, Radisson's drill core samples have been sent to MSALABS's analytical laboratory located in Val-d'Or, Québec, for preparation and gold analysis. The entire sample is dried and crushed (70% passing a 2-millimeter sieve) and split to 500 g. The analysis for gold is performed on an approximately 500 g aliquot using Chrysos Photon Assay™ technology. Standard reference materials, blank samples and duplicates were inserted for quality assurance and quality control.MSALABS and ALS Chemex operate under ISO/IEC 17025 accreditation, utilizing industry-standard QA/QC frameworks for gold analysis. By integrating blanks, duplicates, and CRMs into their workflows, both labs adhere to established benchmarks that ensure precise, reliable, and verifiable results.QP DisclosureDisclosure of a scientific or technical nature in this news release was prepared under the supervision of Mr. Richard Nieminen, P.Geo, (QC), a geological consultant for Radisson and a Qualified Person for purposes of NI 43-101.
