NEWS RELEASE

ARBOR METALS COMPLETES PROSPECTING PROGRAM AT KEMLEE LAKE LITHIUM PROJECT

Vancouver, Canada – July 17th, 2025 – Arbor Metals Corp. (“Arbor” or the “Company”) (TSXV: ABR, FWB:

432) is pleased to announce the successful completion of its 2025 prospecting program at its wholly

owned Kemlee Lake Lithium Project, located on the eastern shore of Lake Nipigon, Ontario. The program,

which was conducted by a six-person crew, involved the collection of valuable geological samples to

advance the exploration efforts at this promising lithium property.

The prospecting work focused on utilizing preexisting trails across the property. The team obtained a total

of twenty-seven rock samples from outcrops, which are expected to provide insights into the geological

characteristics of the property. Additionally, the team collected 622 tree bark samples from black spruce

trees, which were taken along traverse lines that mirrored the winter magnetometer survey lines, running

east-west at 100-meter intervals. The tree bark sampling technique was previously proven successful

during exploration at the Georgia Lake Lithium Project (Rock Tech Georgia Lake Inc.) in 2023.

Both the rock and bark samples were delivered to Activation Laboratories (“Act Labs”) in Thunder Bay,

Ontario, where they were processed before being sent to Act Labs' laboratory in Ancaster, Ontario, for

preparation and analysis. The results of these analyses will be critical in further defining lithium-bearing

zones and guiding future drilling programs.

“We are pleased to have completed this important prospecting program at the Kemlee Lake Lithium

Project,” said Mark Ferguson, President and CEO of Arbor. “The collection of both rock and tree bark

samples in key areas of the property represents a significant step forward in advancing our understanding

of the project’s potential. We look forward to receiving the results and building on this information as we

continue to move the project forward.”

Arbor is committed to conducting all of its exploration activities with a strong focus on environmental

responsibility. The Company adheres to industry-leading environmental guidelines and practices to

minimize its environmental footprint. Arbor continues to work closely with local communities and

indigenous groups to ensure that its exploration efforts are conducted with respect to the environment

The Jarnet, Corvefte Lake and St. Pierre lithium projects, located in the James Bay region of Quebec,

comprises 83 map-designated claims, covering an area of approximately 5,606 hectares. The projects are

configuous to the Corvefte-FCI property, where diamond drilling has confirmed significant lithium

mineralizafion represenfing one of the highest-profile lithium explorafion projects in the sector.

The Kemlee Lake Lithium project is strategically located three kilometers east of Rock Tech Lithium Inc.'s

Aumacho claim blocks and twelve kilometers south of the Georgia Lake Project. The Project shares many

geological similarifies with the prolific Georgia Lake deposit, including bedrock geology and the presence

of massive intrusive dykes. The primary target at the Project will be spodumene- bearing pegmafites

hosted in metasediments.
