Critical One Energy Announces Upsized

CDN$6,875,000 Flow-Through Private

Placement

Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - July 24, 2026) -

Critical One Energy Inc.

(CSE: CRTL) (OTCQB:

MMTLF) (FSE: 4EF) ("

Critical One

" or the "

Company

") is pleased to announce an upsize to the non-

brokered private placement

announced on July 21, 2026

. Under the amended terms, the Company will

now issue up to 6,250,000 flow-through common shares ("

FT Shares

") at a price of CDN$1.10 per FT

Share for gross proceeds of up to CDN$6,875,000 (the "

Offering

").

"The strong institutional support for this oversubscribed financing gives us the runway to keep drilling,

follow up on the strong results from Phase I and advance the

Howells Lake Antimony-Gold Project

through to the end of 2027. It allows us to move the project forward from a position of financial strength,"

said Duane Parnham, Founder, Executive Chairman and CEO of Critical One.

The Company may pay finder's fees on a portion of the Offering to eligible finders in the form of (i) a cash

commission of up to 6.0% of the gross proceeds raised under the Offering, and (ii) common share

purchase warrants of the Company ("

Finder's Warrants

") in an amount up to 6.0% of the FT Shares

issued under the Offering. Each Finder's Warrant will be exercisable to purchase one common share in

the capital of the Company at a price of CDN$1.65 per common share for a period of eighteen (18)

months from the date of closing.

The Company intends to use the gross proceeds from the sale of the FT Shares to incur exploration

expenses that are eligible "Canadian exploration expenses" that qualify as "flow-through mining

expenditures" as such terms are defined in the

Income Tax Act

(Canada).

The Offering is scheduled to close in two tranches. The first tranche, of up to CDN$5,625,000, is

expected to close on or around July 30, 2026. The second tranche, of up to CDN$1,250,000, is

expected to close on or around August 14, 2026. All securities issued pursuant to the Offering described

above will be subject to a four-month and one-day hold period.
