The\nestimated true thickness of the interval is 8.6m. AREVA (now Orano) drilled\nthe hole in 2008. The core went unassayed amid the company's global\nrestructuring and a downturn in uranium prices, ahead of the 2010 sale of its\nFinnish uranium assets to Mawson Resources which subsequently sampled this\nsame interval and reported a historical result in 2011 that is consistent with\nNordX's result above.

As such, we are really excited to get to working at\nRiutta and are looking forward to exploration success.\"\n\nRiutta Uranium Project History\n\nThe Riutta uranium occurrence was discovered in 1958 through radiometric\nboulder tracing. Four exploration campaigns have followed — Atomienergia\n(1958-59), Outokumpu Oy (1960-63), the Geological Survey of Finland (\"GTK\")\n(1983-88), and AREVA (2008-09) — totalling 65 drill holes across 6,275 m,\nwith only 10 holes drilled in the last 38 years. Over 500 mineralized boulders\nhave been located at Riutta, more than one hundred assaying above 1% uranium,\nand trenching at the Ristimonttu and Unimonttu prospects has exposed\npitchblende veins and pockets. Prior to the newly confirmed AREVA DH1 results,\nthe best previously assayed drill results at Riutta were in drill hole 324,\nwhich intersected 3.6m at 1.10% U(3)O(8) between 42.00m and 45.60m (including\n0.35m at 9.79% U(3)O(8) between 42.60m and 42.95m) at the Unimonttu prospect,\nand in drill hole AE-7 which intersected 1.0 m at 0.35% U(3)O(8) between 63.30\nm and 64.30m at the Kolmosviuhka prospect, located 260 m and 450 m SSE of\ndrill hole AREVA DH1, respectively (Figure 1). The historical drill results\nand boulder sampling data referenced above have not been verified by the\nCompany's Qualified Person and should not be relied upon.\n\n(https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/11951/308052_0071b20c3435a828_001full.jpg)\n\nFigure 1.

The underlying assay data\nwas later sold, along with the Riutta property, to Tournigan Energy Ltd. in\n2012, renamed months later as European Uranium Resources (\"EUR\"). Most of\nEUR's claims were subsequently allowed to lapse or were relinquished, and the\ndata was never filed with Finland's Safety and Chemicals Agency (\"Tukes\").\nNordX has not been able to obtain the underlying assay data or methodology.\n\nRiutta Uranium Project Mineralization\n\nUranium mineralization at Riutta occurs as thin pitchblende veins (up to a few\nmm wide) infilling fractures and microbreccias within a sericite-quartz schist\nhost. The bedrock comprises Archean granitoids and gneisses overlain by\nPaleoproterozoic quartzitic metasediments, cut by mafic to ultramafic dykes.\nRiutta is interpreted as a structurally controlled, low-temperature\nhydrothermal uranium system, with extensive alteration including epidote,\nchlorite, quartz, sericite, albite, potassium feldspar, carbonate, and\nclinozoisite.\n\nSampling protocol and assay method\n\nDrill core was logged and marked to show where historical core was to be half-\nor quarter-sampled, in some cases using an automated diamond-blade saw. Cut\nsections were bagged, assigned sample IDs, and logged in a sample register.\nResampling took place at GTK's core archive in Rovaniemi, Finland; samples\nwere then driven personally by NordX geologists to CRS Laboratories Oy in\nKempele, near Oulu, for preparation and assay. CRS Laboratories Oy is\nindependent of NordX. Samples were crushed, split, and pulverized under\nstandard procedures, then assayed by four-acid digestion with an ICP-MS finish\n(method 4A-MS12).\n\nA Quality Assurance/Quality Control (QAQC) program monitored sampling,\npreparation, and assay quality throughout the resampling campaign, inserting\nfour OREAS certified reference standards, two core duplicates, and one blank\ninto the sample stream — together representing 8% of all samples submitted\nfor analysis. CRS Laboratory operates under ISO/IEC 17025 accreditation and\nis widely trusted by Nordic mining and exploration companies for geochemical\nanalysis. All QAQC control samples returned results within acceptable limits\nfor accuracy and precision, and no issues were identified that would affect\nthe reliability of the assay dataset. All standards plotted within two\nstandard deviations of certified values, all blanks returned below detection\nlimit or below threshold and all duplicates showed <20% relative percent\ndifference.\n\nQualified Person\n\nThe scientific and technical information in this news release has been\nreviewed and approved by Avrom E.
