Neotech Metals Corp Completes Hecla-Kilmer

Resource Definition Drill Campaign

Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - November 24, 2025) - Neotech Metals Corp. (CSE:

NTMC) (OTCQB: NTMFF) (FSE: V690) (

"Neotech"

or

"the Company"

) is pleased to announce the

successful completion of its 2025 resource definition and delineation drill campaign at the Company's

100%-owned Hecla-Kilmer Rare Earth Project in Ontario, Canada in addition to the ongoing

environmental, indigenous, and community relations programs.

2025 Drill Campaign

The program totaled approximately 8,000 meters of new drilling, with core currently being logged,

sampled, and processed on site. Samples are regularly shipped to the laboratory, and assay results are

expected in the coming weeks.

In parallel, Neotech has also submitted nearly 2,000 meters of historical drill core from earlier campaigns

for comprehensive rare earth element ("REE") analysis-either as first-time assays or re-assays using the

full REE suite. These results will further enhance the geological dataset and will be incorporated into the

maiden Mineral Resource Estimate planned for 2026.

The 2025 drill campaign was designed to infill, expand, and refine the boundaries of REE mineralization

at Hecla-Kilmer, guided by updated 3D geological and geophysical models. The objective was to test

and confirm continuity of mineralization across key zones and to advance the Project toward resource

definition.

Indigenous Engagement and ESG Integration

In addition to the drill campaign, Neotech has commenced its baseline environmental water sampling

program, which will establish the foundational data required to support ongoing environmental

understanding and future permitting activities.

Neotech continues to advance its engagement with Indigenous Nations through regular dialogue, on-site

participation, and collaborative planning. The Company's ESG approach prioritizes responsible project

design, the incorporation of Indigenous knowledge, and early alignment with the Ontario Environmental

Assessment process. This work is being integrated into upcoming exploration programs to ensure that

engineering, land-use planning, and future permitting pathways proceed in a coordinated and

transparent manner.

The rapid advancement of Hecla-Kilmer continues to validate our confidence in the uniqueness and

scalability of this geological system," said Reagan Glazier, CEO of Neotech Metals. "The steady stream

of assays and technical updates expected over the coming months will support a disciplined path toward

our maiden resource estimate, while meaningfully reducing technical risk and enhancing the long-term

strategic value of the project.
