Arizona Tribune - Chilean Cobalt Corp. Expands NeoRe Development Program With Exploration Success, Engineering Progress and AI Engagement

Through project operator NeoRe SpA ("NeoRe"), the Company continues to advance resource definition, process optimization, engineering, permitting, and project financing activities in support of this modular development strategy.

Since beginning exploration, NeoRe has completed 133 drill holes totaling 1,504 meters. Exploration and drilling activities have now advanced across 14 of 35 identified targets, including 12 targets drilled to date.

Surface exploration continues to support the district-scale potential of the Project, with recent sampling identifying rare earth element ("REE") anomalies across several target areas, supporting continued drilling and evaluation across the district.

Engineering activities continue to advance, with Basic Engineering led by Equalitas Ingeniería Ltda reaching nearly 25% completion. Recent pilot-scale downstream processing work has demonstrated encouraging REE recovery results, across multiple layers of mineralization.

The Company is also advancing the use of artificial intelligence ("AI") and advanced geoscientific technologies with the NeoRe Project. Following a successful pilot program previously conducted on Chilean Cobalt's La Cobaltera cobalt-copper project in northern Chile, NeoRe will work with Mineral Forecast SpA, a Chile-based geosciences AI company. The work program will support NeoRe's accelerated exploration strategy by enhancing target generation, prioritize exploration activities, and optimize the identification of areas with higher mineral potential across the district.

NeoRe is also strengthening its operational capabilities through the recruitment of several key personnel across supply chain management and data sciences.

Any definitive acquisition agreement, if completed, will include customary conditions precedent, termination rights, and a jointly developed sustainability and community engagement framework, consistent with Chilean regulatory requirements and industry best practices.
