Anfield Provides Positive Update Regarding its Confirmation Drill Program at Its JD-7 Mine

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA -- GLOBE NEWSWIRE – September 30, 2025 — Anfield Energy Inc.

(TSX.V: AEC; NASDAQ: AEC; FRANKFURT: 0AD) (“Anfield” or “the Company”) is pleased to announce the

completion of the first 12 holes of the Company’s ongoing 20-hole, 8,000-foot confirmation drill program

at its JD-7 mine, an existing uranium and vanadium open pit mine in Montrose County, Colorado. This

program, announced on August 25, 2025, aims to 1) collect geologic information related to uranium

mineralization in multiple sandstone hosted deposits throughout the area ; 2) confirm the existing pit

resources; 3) confirm the extent and location of underground uranium and vanadium resources; and 4)

consider potential uranium and vanadium resource expansion. The drill program – consisting primarily of

air rotary with a subset of split barrel core drilling – is being conducted by Tri-Park Drilling.

Significant intercepts of mineralization from the program include:

• 17.0 ft grading 5,190 ppm (0.519%) eU3O8 (GT of 8.82) in Hole JD7-25-004B, with a peak of

14,850 ppm (1.485%) eU3O8 at 153.5 ft;

• 19.0 ft grading 2,380 ppm (0.238%) eU3O8 (GT of 4.52) in Hole JD7-25-005, with a peak of 9,240

ppm (0.924%) eU3O8 at 170.0 ft; and

• 17.0 ft grading 1,620 ppm (0.162%) eU3O8 (GT of 2.75) in Hole JD7-25-012, with a peak of 5,990

ppm (0.599%) eU3O8 at 185.0 ft.

Corey Dias, Anfield’s CEO, commented: “We are very pleased with the interim drill results as they both

underscore the potential for resource confirmation – and possible expansion – at JD-7 and align with

Anfield’s broader strategy to advance its portfolio of near-term uranium and vanadium projects toward

production. The Company remains on track to complete the remaining holes in the coming weeks, with

full results expected to inform future development plans, including integration into Anfield’s hub-and-

spoke production model centered around the Shootaring Canyon Mill in Utah.”

Figure 1: Drilling Underway at JD-7 Open Pit mine:

Drilling commenced on September 15th, 2025, and initial results have been highly encouraging, with 12

out of the planned 20 drilling targets completed to date. Gamma ray logging results indicate elevated

uranium mineralization exceeding the minimum cutoff grade of 200 ppm eU3O8 and minimum Grade

Thickness (GT) of 0.2 in 10 of the 12 drill holes completed so far. These findings confirm 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 seven

holes yielding a Grade Thickness (GT) over 0.5, indicating high-potential zones; three holes showing GT

values between 0.1 and 0.5, reflecting moderate mineralization; and two holes containing only trace

mineralization. The lower-strength intercepts are associated with the program's objective to delineate

the outer boundaries of the mineralized resource, providing valuable data for refining resource models

and supporting future mine planning and development at JD-7.

Figure 4: Mineralized Core Samples Recovered from JD7-25-004

Two of the drill holes were completed with cored intervals to obtain physical samples of mineralized

material. Cored intervals were completed using split-barrel core drilling through the mineralized zones. A

subset of the remaining drill holes will also be drilled with core intervals. The core samples will be analyzed

by two laboratories: Pace Analytical of Sheridan, Wyoming and Hazen Research of Golden, Colorado.

These labs will use 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.
