Xander Resources Expands Project Portfolio with the Bear River Tungsten Project

Vancouver, British Columbia / July 9, 2025 – Xander Resources Inc. (“XND” or the “Company”)

(TSXV: XND), a North American mineral acquisition and exploration company, is pleased to announce

that, subject to the approval of the TSX Venture (the “Exchange”), the Company has executed an option

(the “Option Agreement”) for the right to purchase an undivided 100% interest in the Bear River Tungsten

property (the “Property” or the “Project”) comprised of 3 6 mineral claims covering approximately 1,980

hectares in southeastern Quebec (Fig. 1).

Deepak Varshney, CEO of Xander, commented: “The Bear River claims are an exciting addition to our

growing portfolio of critical metal assets, and our review highlights the potential for new discoveries at this

project.”

The Project is situated in southeastern part of Allochthon subdivisions of the Granville geological province

adjacent to Anticosti platform and Havre -Saint-Pierre complex, which is characterized by ancient, highly

metamorphosed rocks , and includes a mineraliz ed showing (Ech. CN -08-285) with tungsten (W)

concentrations in the form of Wolframite which could be associated to the quartz veining systems intruded

in the Wakeham group rocks.

The Company believes there is possible potential of tungsten mineralization associated with metamorphism

or with quartz veining systems within the Project based on the following:

• The lithological setting (Wakeham group) in which the mineralization is hosted, a n arenaceous

siliciclastic sequence accompanied by paragneiss, mudrock, conglomerate, carbonate rocks and

volcanic rocks in smaller proportions that are weakly to moderately metamorphosed;

• the other geological settings and groups within the Project claim boundaries such as the La

Galissonnière (granite, monzogranite, and quartz syenite) and Robe Noire (gabbro sills and dykes);

and

• the evidence of metamorphism including a degree of recrystallization of the rock, the

transformation of some detrital minerals into metamorphic minerals in some areas, and the

deformation that has modified or obliterated the initial geometry of the deposits in some other areas;

and the presence of tungsten in the system (as it is presented in the Ech. CN-08-285 showing)

Pursuant to the Option Agreement, the Company may acquire a 100% interest in the Property by issuing to

the Vendor an aggregate of 1,000,000 common shares (“Shares”) in the capital of the Company as indicated

in the table below:
