Anfield Completes Confirmation Drill Program at JD-7 Mine and Prepares for Resource
Update
VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA -- GLOBE NEWSWIRE – October 21, 2025 — Anfield Energy Inc. (TSX.V:
AEC; NASDAQ: A EC; FRANKFURT: 0AD) (“Anfield” or “the Company”) is pleased to announce the
completion of a 20-hole, 8,000-foot confirmation drill program at its JD-7 mine, one of the five mines (JD5,
JD-6, JD-7, JD-8 and JD-9) which make up the Company’s Paradox Mine Complex. The drill results will be
incorporated into a new uranium and vanadium resource report in Q1/26, alongside the additional drilling
to be completed at the other JD mines.
Significant intercepts of mineralization from the program include:
• 17.0 ft grading an average of 5,190 ppm (0.519%) eU3O8 in Hole JD7-25-004B, with a peak of
14,850 ppm (1.485%) eU3O8 at 153.5 ft;
• 19.0 ft grading an average of 2,380 ppm (0.238%) eU3O8 in Hole JD7-25-005, with a peak of
9,240 ppm (0.924%) eU3O8 at 170.0 ft;
• 17.0 ft grading an average of 1,620 ppm (0.162%) eU3O8 in Hole JD7-25-012, with a peak of
5,990 ppm (0.599%) eU3O8 at 185.0 ft; and
• 21.0 ft grading an average of 2,500 ppm (0.250%) eU3O8 in Hole JD7-25-014B, with a peak of
7,770 ppm (0.777%) eU3O8 at 212.5 ft.
Corey Dias, Anfield’s CEO, commented: “ We are very pleased with the drill results as they not only
underscore the potential for resource confirmation and possible expansion at JD -7 but also align with
Anfield’s broader strategy to advance its portfolio of near- term uranium and vanadium projects toward
production. To that end, t he creation of the Paradox Mine Complex reflects our plans to create specific
targeted uranium and vanadium production centers as we advance these grouped assets through mine
planning and, ultimately, production through Anfield’s Shootaring Canyon mill.
Following the success of the Company’s drill program at JD-7, Anfield will commence underground drilling
at its remaining JD mines, after which the Company will aim to issue an updated uranium resource for the
Paradox Mine Complex which will now also incorporate the more-recently acquired JD-5 mine.”
Drill program results
ENERGY INC.
ANFIELD
Drilling commenced on September 15th, 2025, and preliminary downhole gamma results have been highly
encouraging. A total of 23 drill holes were performed over the 20 planned drilling targets. All drilling
activities were completed on October 9 th, 2025, with reclamation activities ongoing to date. A total of
7,564 ft of drilling was performed of which 149 ft was performed by split barrel coring and the remainder
was air rotary.
Drill hole results including Depth, Thickness and Grade, as determined by downhole geophysical logging,
are shown on Figure 1 . Uranium grade is reported as equivalent weight per cent. For sandstone hosted
uranium the Grade Thickness product (GT) is commonly used as an indication of the intensity of
mineralization. Gamma ray logging results indicate elevated uranium mineralization exceeding the typical
minimum cutoff grade of 0.02 %eU3O8 (200 ppm) eU3O8 and minimum Grade Thickness (GT) of 0.2 in 15
of the 23 drill holes completed. These findings verify the presence of uranium mineralization at depths
and locations consistent with the historical drilling dataset for the JD-7 mine.
The drilling results demonstrate robust uranium mineralization across the targeted areas, with eleven
holes yielding a Grade Thickness (GT) over 0.5, indicating high-potential zones; six holes showing GT values
between 0.1 and 0.5, reflecting moderate mineralization; five holes containing only trace mineralization,
and one drill hole containing no mineralization over the 0.02% eU3O8 grade cutoff. The lower -strength
intercepts are associated with the program's objective to delineate the outer boundaries of the
mineralization, providing valuable data for refining resource models and supporting future mine planning
and development at JD-7.
Next steps include obtaining assay of the core sample for closed can (radiometric) and chemical uranium
and vanadium grades. This data will be used along with correlation to downhole geophysical logging to
assess radiometric equilibrium and to verify the vanadium to uranium ratio (V:U).
The verification of the historic drill data, confirmation of radiometric equilibrium and verification of the
vanadium uranium ratio will allow re -assessment of the uranium and associated vanadium mineral
resources at JD-7. The drill results will provide a higher level of confidence in the uranium and vanadium
resource estimates.
Figure 1: Drill results
Split barrel core intervals were obtained from 5 of the 23 drill holes at 5 of the 20 planned drilling
locations. These corings will be employed to provide physical samples of mineralized material. Cored
intervals were completed using split-barrel core aimed at drilling through the mineralized zones. Four of
the five cored locations intercepted mineralization above the minimum grade cutoff.
The core samples were analyzed by two arms-length laboratories: Pace Analytical of Sheridan, Wyoming
and Hazen Research of Golden, Colorado. These labs used chemical methods to : 1) determine both
uranium and vanadium content to evaluate the vanadium -to-uranium ratio of the mineralization; 2) to
provide data to validate the uranium gamma ray logging results ; and 3) further refine the uranium and
vanadium resource estimates for JD-7 lease. The cores can also be used for mineralogical and metallurgical
testing. This data will enhance the accuracy of the geological model and supports Anfield's efforts to
advance the project toward production readiness.
