TORONTO, Ontario November 19, 2025 TheNewswire Laurion Mineral Exploration Inc. (TSXV: LME,OTC:LMEFF | OTCPINK: LMEFF,OTC:LMEFF) (‘LAURION’ or the ‘Corporation’) is pleased to provide this corporate update on its advisory engagements, exploration progress, and investor outreach initiatives.

Advisory Network Expansion

As part of its ongoing corporate development strategy, LAURION has broadened its advisory network to include additional strategic partners engaged to complement and extend the Corporation’s capital markets and M&A (strategic transaction) initiatives. This expanded network, established prior to the conclusion of LAURION’s engagement with US Capital Global Partners, as disclosed in its most recent public filing, is intended to enhance the Corporation’s institutional outreach, market visibility, and transactional execution capabilities. LAURION has created a layered, multi-channel approach designed to expedite investor access, broaden the Corporation’s ability to explore transactional opportunities, and ensure the Corporation can efficiently engage a wider breadth of potential partners and stakeholders in exploring strategic alternatives. While the Corporation anticipates that the benefits of these expanded advisory efforts will materialize progressively over time, this coordinated framework aims to strengthen LAURION’s foundation for long-term growth and advance its shareholder value strategy with discipline and transparency.

Advancing the Ishkõday Exploration Program

LAURION continues to execute a disciplined and systematic advancement of its flagship 57 km² Ishkõday Project, located 220 km northeast of Thunder Bay, Ontario. Further to the Corporation’s press releases dated May 8, 2025, May 27, 2025, July 29, 2025, August 19, 2025, September 23, 2025, and October 8, 2025, the 2025 field program has materially progressed on schedule and within budget, with meaningful technical milestones now achieved across geophysics, drilling, and surface exploration.

Issuance of Stock Options to First Nations

In accordance with an amendment to the Exploration Agreement between LAURION and the Animbiigoo Zaagi’igan Anishinaabek (AZA) , Bingwi Neyaashi Anishinaabek (BNA) , and Biinjitiwaabik Zaaging Anishinaabek (BZA ) First Nations, the Corporation’s Board of Directors has authorized the issuance of an aggregate of 750,000 stock options (250,000 to each First Nation). These options, granted under LAURION’s stock option plan, are exercisable at a price of $ 0.38 per common share. The options will vest immediately and remain exercisable for a period of five years from the grant date. This grant is subject to acceptance by the TSX Venture Exchange.

This issuance forms part of the broader resolution and recognition framework outlined under the Exploration Agreement , reflecting LAURION’s continued commitment to long-term collaboration, transparency, and shared benefit with our Indigenous partners.

Looking Ahead and Shareholder Updates

LAURION reaffirms that any developments of material significance will be communicated without delay. In the meantime, shareholders are encouraged to respect channel integrity and refrain from speculating on social media, which may negatively affect the share price and delay the effective execution of strategic initiatives. The Corporation appreciates shareholders’ patience and trust—the Board and management continue exerting every effort, in concert with its diverse advisors, to maximize shareholder value.

About Laurion Mineral Exploration Inc.

The Corporation is a mid-stage junior mineral exploration and development company listed on the TSXV under the symbol LME and on the OTCPINK under the symbol LMEFF. LAURION now has 274,097,283 outstanding shares, of which approximately 73.6% are owned and controlled by insiders who are eligible investors under the ‘Friends and Family’ categories.

LAURION’s emphasis is on the exploration and development of its flagship project, the 100% owned mid-stage 57 km 2 Ishk õ day Project, and its gold-rich polymetallic mineralization. LAURION’s chief priority remains maximizing shareholder value. A large portion of the Corporation’s focus in this regard falls within the scope of its mineral exploration activities and more specifically, advancing the Ishkõday Project.

A consequence of LAURION’s success and advancement over the past several years is that the Corporation has become positioned as an acquisition target for appropriate potential acquirors. Accordingly, the Corporation’s Board of Directors is aware that possible strategic alternatives and transactional opportunities may arise and/or could be procured in the short or medium terms. The Corporation will promptly issue a press release if any material change occurs.

Harena Rare Earths Plc (LSE: HREE), the rare earths company focused on the Ampasindava ionic clay rare earth project in Madagascar (the ‘Ampasindava Project‘), is pleased to announce that its ordinary shares of 0.5 pence each (‘Ordinary Shares‘) have been approved to trade on the OTCQB Venture Market (‘OTCQB‘) in the United States (the ‘U.S.‘) and will commence cross-trading on the OTCQB at market open today under the ticker symbol ‘OTCQB: CRMNF’. The Company continues to maintain its primary quotation on the London Stock Exchange’s Main Market (the ‘Main Market‘).

The OTCQB, recognised by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission as an Established Public Market, serves as a leading platform for both domestic and international growth-stage companies. Admission to the OTCQB requires companies to maintain up-to-date financial reporting, meet minimum bid price criteria, and complete an annual verification and management certification process. Harena was advised during the admission process by Donohoe Advisory Associates LLC (‘Donohoe Advisory‘).

The Company believes that cross-trading on both the Main Market and the OTCQB will not only increase liquidity in its shares, thanks to a broader pool of investors, but will also provide investors in the United States with easier access to trading in Harena’s ordinary shares.

Harena has seen considerable investor interest from the U.S. and given the Company’s strategic focus on the U.S. market for the procurement of its rare earth deposits, the OTCQB market offers the Company strong synergies as it looks to further the development of the Ampasindava Project.

Appointment of Siebert as U.S. Broker and Financial Adviser

As cross-trading on the OTCQB market will now be initiated, Harena has appointed Siebert Financial Corporation (‘Siebert‘) as the Company’s U.S. broker and financial advisor.

The board of directors of Harena (the ‘Board‘ or the ‘Directors‘) believes that the appointment of Siebert is an important step in broadening access to U.S. investors and supporting the effective promotion of the Company’s shares in the U.S.

Siebert (NASDAQ: SIEB) is a publicly traded broker-dealer in the U.S. with approximately US$20 billion in assets under management through its retail advisors. Headquartered in Miami, Siebert’s investment banking practice provides advisory and financing solutions to a broad range of industries with major offices in New York, Washington DC and Los Angeles, and a presence in more than ten additional U.S. locations.

Ivan Murphy, Executive Chairman of Harena, said:

‘The ever-growing demand for critical minerals from the U.S. and the focus on breaking its reliance on China makes it a key market for Harena. As such, the initiation of Harena’s cross-trading on the OTCQB marks an important milestone for the Company as we further broaden our investor base by making it easier for U.S. investors to gain exposure to our world-class Amapsindava Project.’

Ajay Asija, Co-Head of Investment Banking, Muriel Siebert & Co., said:

‘At Siebert we would like to use this engagement to build a long-term relationship with Harena and its US investors. As such we will support outreach to investors, provide market colour, provide access to individuals in our professional network, and serve as a trusted advisor to the Company as it navigates U.S. capital markets.’

  • Data will support design and planning of first in human clinical trials
  • Preparing for pre-IND meeting with the FDA

InMed Pharmaceuticals Inc. (NASDAQ: INM) (‘InMed’ or the ‘Company’), a pharmaceutical company developing a pipeline of proprietary small-molecule drug candidates for diseases with high unmet medical needs, today announced the successful completion of pharmacokinetic (‘PK’) studies in large animal models for its Alzheimer’s disease candidate INM-901.

This marks the first preclinical study in which the oral formulation of INM-901 was administered in large animals. The results provide additional data in guiding decisions in the design of a human Phase 1 clinical trial program.

Positive PK and Neurological Assessment Results

Over a seven-day dosing period, the studies demonstrated robust bioavailability in in vivo models. INM-901 achieved what is anticipated to be therapeutic levels of systemic exposure, supporting its potential utility in neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer’s disease.

In addition, neurological assessments evaluating general attitude, behavior, and motor function revealed no adverse neural or behavioral effects, reinforcing the compound’s favorable profile and supporting its continued advancement toward first-in-human clinical trials.

In parallel, InMed has completed additional chemistry, manufacturing, and controls (‘CMC’) development to scale the INM-901 manufacturing process in preparation for Investigational New Drug (‘IND’)-enabling studies and regulatory interaction with the Food and Drug Administration (‘FDA’).

Dr. Eric Hsu, Senior Vice President, Preclinical Research and Development at InMed, commented, ‘The successful completion of our first large animal PK study is very encouraging for the INM-901 program. The data supports the clinical applicability of our INM-901 oral formulation and provides important insights as we plan and design our IND-enabling studies and Phase 1 clinical trials. Furthermore, the neurological assessments strengthen our confidence in the compound’s overall safety profile.’

Next development steps:

  • Advancing CMC activities for scale-up and supply
  • Dose ranging studies in two species
  • Preparing for a pre-IND meeting with the FDA
  • GLP-enabling studies to support an IND submission

Cartier Resources Inc. (″ Cartier ″ or the ″ Company ″) (TSXV: ECR,OTC:ECRFF; FSE: 6CA) is pleased to announce that metallurgical testwork program is underway on samples of the Main Sector from its Cadillac Project, located in Val-d’Or (Abitibi, Quebec). This work will be supervised by Soutex, a firm specializing in mineral processing and metallurgy, located in Quebec City (Quebec).

Methodology of the Metallurgical Testwork Program

A total of 388.7 kg of representative NZ-size half-drill core samples, which 92% of the samples come from holes drilled by Cartier between 2017 and 2023, has been collected from three gold deposits (Chimo, East Chimo and West Nordeau) of the Main Sector (Figure 1) and shipped to ALS Canada Ltd – Metallurgy Services in Kamloops, British Columbia; the details and process of which are provided below:

  • Chimo Deposit: 126.1 kg (composites 1 & 2).
  • East Chimo Deposit: 132.6 kg (composites 3 & 4).
  • West Nordeau Deposit: 130.0 kg (composites 5 & 6).

Figure 1 : Geographic Location of the Composites

The preparation and testing process of the composites of the three deposits will be subject to cyanidation tests at three different grind sizes. After these tests, gravimetric concentration separation followed by a cyanide destruction tests of the gravity tails will be done at the grind size showing the best results. In addition to the metallurgical program, comminution test, as well as chemical and mineralogical characterization, will also be performed to define the grindability of the mineralized material and predict his behaviour in the process (Figure 2).

Figure 2 : Material Preparation and Testing Flowchart of the Composites

Key Objectives of the Program

  • Defining expected gold recovery rates and improving upon historical results from the Chimo deposit.
  • Establishing first-time metallurgical recovery data for the East Chimo and West Nordeau satellite deposits, where no previous data exists.
  • Supporting the development of an integrated process flowsheet .
  • Providing critical data for future trade-off studies to guide project development.

Results from the metallurgical testwork program are expected in Q1 2026 (Figure 3).

Figure 3 : Planned Test Schedule

Milestones of 2025-2027 Exploration Program

100,000 m Drilling Program (Q3 2025 to Q2 2027)

The ambitious 600-hole drilling program will both expand known gold zones and test new shallow surface high-potential targets. The objective is to unlock the camp-scale, high-grade gold potential along the 15 km Cadillac Fault Zone. It is important to note that Cartier’s recent consolidation of this large land holding offers the unique opportunity in over 90 years for unrestricted exploration.

Environmental Baseline Studies & Economic Evaluation of Chimo mine tailings (Q3 2025 to Q3 2026)

The baseline studies will be divided into two distinct parts which include 1) environmental baseline desktop study and 2) preliminary environmental geochemical characterization. The initial baseline studies will provide a comprehensive understanding of the current environmental conditions and implement operations that minimize environmental impact while optimizing the economic potential of the project. These studies will be supplemented by an initial assessment of the economic potential of the past-producing Chimo mine tailings to determine whether a quantity of gold can be extracted economically.

VVC Exploration Corporation, dba VVC Resources (‘VVC’ or the ‘Company’) (TSX-V: VVC; OTC: VVCVF) announces that, after a project review, it is strategically restructured its mining projects in Mexico.

This project review encompassed multiple considerations, including ongoing maintenance costs, permitting authorizations, political climate, safety, upside potential and financeability of each project and probability of achieving the projects potential.

After this review, the Company has decided to:

  • Exit the Gloria Copper Project located near Samalayuca, State of Chihuahua, Mexico. This long-standing project of the Company is expensive to maintain and is in an area that has become more politically volatile with uncertain safety. The geological potential of the project is not in question, but the ability to achieve that potential is unclear.
  • Focus all mining exploration activity on the Cumeral Gold Project. Cumeral is the Company’s highly prospective gold project in north central Sonora Mexico. This project, while not as advanced as the Gloria Copper Project, has a huge upside potential. It is in an area where there is strong local support for the project and a higher likelihood of permitting and implementation success. The Cumeral Gold Project is a 1,665-hectare property in northern Sonora near Imuris which exhibits quartz-vein–hosted gold in a detachment-fault/orogenic setting with a documented NNW–SSE mineralized trend of ~4 km. Historical work reported that ~36% of 407 grab/chip samples assayed 0.1–10 g/t Au; soil surveys outlined additional anomalies (47 samples >0.020 ppm Au); and air-track drilling intersected broad, near-surface intervals of 0.21–0.44 g/t Au over 6–26 m in key target areas. The Company will continue activities on the Cumeral Gold Project.

Rationale and Next Steps
The Company’s decision reflects consideration of cost discipline, safety and risk management. The exit from the Gloria Copper Project will reduce future cash outlays for care, maintenance, and permitting at amid uncertainty over permit viability and broader political conditions in Chihuahua State. Capital and management resources will be reallocated to the Cumeral Gold Project exploration, and to development of the Company’s helium/natural gas project in the Central Kansas Uplift (CKU) Project where existing infrastructure and near-term activities offer a clearer path to execution.

« There are opportunity costs in every project, » said Jim Culver, CEO. « Exiting the Gloria Copper Project will allow the Company to concentrate resources on projects with an obvious direct and timely route to advancing development while maintaining discipline on risk and spending. »

China’s lithium market strengthened sharply on Monday (November 17) after Ganfeng Lithium (OTC Pink:GNENF,HKEX:1772) Chairman Li Liangbin said at a domestic industry conference that demand for the key battery metal could grow by as much as 40 percent in 2026.

The most-traded lithium carbonate contract on the Guangzhou Futures Exchange rose 9 percent that day and moved near its upper limit, marking its strongest close since June 2024.

Li’s comments, first reported by financial news outlet Cailian and later shared by Reuters, also included a projection that lithium carbonate prices could reach 200,000 yuan if demand accelerates as expected.

Traders said the reaction from the lithium price shows how much weight Ganfeng carries in a market that has been quick to react to any sign of stronger consumption after years of oversupply.

Chinese lithium carbonate prices are already up more than 17 percent this month on improving sentiment in the energy storage sector and expectations that demand for stationary batteries will grow through 2026.

CATL restart drives lithium volatility

China’s lithium market is also seeing support from the delayed restart of Contemporary Amperex Technology’s (CATL) (SZSE:300750,HKEX:3750) Jianxiawo mine in Yichun.

The mine normally produces about 65,000 metric tons of lithium carbonate equivalent a year, roughly 6 percent of global supply. However, it has been shut down since August after its operating permit expired.

CATL is reportedly making progress at getting the mine back online, but no exact date has been given.

The shutdown has spilled into global markets as well. In September, Australian lithium stocks fell sharply on the back of signs that CATL’s restart could be approaching.

Oversupply still weighing on lithium market

Beyond China, the broader lithium market has struggled with imbalance throughout 2025.

Prices spiked in July and August before easing again in September, with talks of potential supply cuts by Australian miners creating short-lived rallies despite strong inventories and growing production.

“The nascency of the lithium market means that it is prone to be led by sentiment,” Fastmarkets’ Claudia Cook wrote earlier this year, noting how futures activity has repeatedly drifted from fundamentals.

Oversupply remains the defining theme. Global mined output has jumped 192 percent since 2020, swelling inventories faster than even robust electric-vehicle demand can absorb.

While electric vehicle sales topped 17 million units in 2024 and are expected to exceed 20 million this year, production growth, including a 22 percent rise in mined supply in 2024, has kept the market in surplus.

Analysts have warned that the imbalance in the lithium sector could persist into the next decade unless mine delays, project cancelations or unexpectedly strong demand intervene.

Beijing’s new export controls have added another layer of uncertainty.

Export controls announced last month would mandate that Chinese companies secure export licenses for high-energy lithium-ion batteries, synthetic graphite anodes and critical production equipment. China has delayed the implementation of these controls for one year, until November 10, 2026, as part of a deal with the US.

Against that backdrop, the US is looking to boost its supply of non-Chinese lithium.

The US Department of Energy released the first US$435 million from a US$2.23 billion loan to Lithium Americas (TSX:LAC,NYSE:LAC) in October, advancing construction of the Thacker Pass project in Nevada — set to become the largest lithium source in the western hemisphere once online. The project is central to Washington’s push to reduce dependence on Chinese refining and secure domestic supplies of battery-grade material.

For now, China remains the clearest guide for price direction. Monday’s futures jump showed how quickly sentiment can move when major producers offer firmer demand signals.
