Overview of the Russell Lake Uranium Project:
The Russell Lake Project is a large, advanced uranium exploration project totaling 73,314 hectares, strategically located between Cameco’s Key Lake and McArthur River Projects, and adjacent to Denison’s Wheeler River Project to the west and Skyharbour’s Moore Uranium Project to the east. The northern extension of Highway 914 between Key Lake and McArthur River passes through the western portion of the property and significantly improves accessibility, while a power line is located along this road. Skyharbour’s acquisition of a majority interest in Russell Lake creates a large, nearly contiguous block of highly prospective uranium claims totaling 109,019 hectares between the Russell Lake and Moore uranium projects. Several notable exploration targets exist on Russell, including the Grayling Zone, the M-Zone Extension target, the Little Man Lake target, the Christie Lake target, the Fox Lake Trail target, and the newly identified Fork Zone target. There are also more than 22 miles of largely untested potential conductors in low magnetic intensity areas on the property. Skyharbour is the operator and owns a majority stake in Russell Lake, having formed a joint venture partnership with RTEC on the project.

About Skyharbour Resources Ltd.:
Skyharbour has an extensive portfolio of uranium exploration projects in Canada’s Athabasca Basin and is well positioned to benefit from the improving fundamentals of the uranium market, with interest in thirty-seven projects covering more than 616,000 hectares (over 1.5 million acres) of land. Skyharbour has acquired from Denison Mines, a major strategic shareholder of the company, a 100% interest in the Moore Uranium Project, located 15 kilometers east of Denison’s Wheeler River project and 39 kilometers south of Cameco’s McArthur River uranium mine. Moore is an advanced uranium exploration project with high-grade uranium mineralization in several zones of the Maverick Corridor. Adjacent to the Moore Project is the Russell Lake Uranium Project, which hosts widespread uranium mineralization in drill intercepts across a large property area with upside potential for exploration. The company is actively advancing these projects through exploration and drilling programs.
Skyharbour also has joint ventures with industry leader Orano Canada Inc., Agincourt Energy and Thunderbird Resources at the Preston, East Preston and Hook Lake Projects, respectively. The company also has several active earn-in option partners, including CSE-listed Basin Uranium Corp. at the Mann Lake Uranium Project; TSX-V listed North Shore Uranium at the Falcon Project; UraEx resources at the South Dufferin and Bolt projects; Ax uranium at the Highway Project; Mustang Energy CSE-listed on the 914W Project; and TSX-V listed Terra Clean Energy on the South Falcon East Project.
In total, Skyharbour has now signed earn-in option agreements with partners totaling more than $36 million in partner-funded exploration expenditures, with more than $20 million in equity issuance and $14 million in cash payments coming into Skyharbour, assuming these partner companies complete their full earnings on the respective projects.
Skyharbour’s goal is to maximize shareholder value through new mineral discoveries, long-term partnerships and the advancement of exploration projects in geopolitically favorable jurisdictions.
