Vancouver, British Columbia -(January 8, 2026 ) - NEW EARTH RESOURCES CORP. (CSE:
EATH) ("New Earth" or the "Company") is pleased to outline its planned exploration program for
the SL Project, a property prospective for rare earth elements (“REE”) in the Strange Lake area of
Quebec, Canada. This initiative marks a strategic first step in systematically evaluating the project's
potential, with a focus on generating regional data layers to inform future targeting and area
reduction efforts.
The planned regional-scale exploration program encompasses a multi-faceted approach, including
regional prospecting across the property, property -wide airborne geophysics, and regional
geochemical surveys. These activities are designed to identify outcrops , geological features, and
potential REE mineralization indicators, providing a foundation for advancing the project.
Key components of the program include:
• Regional Prospecting: Field teams will conduct systematic prospecting to locate outcrops
and floats, collecting samples to assess initial REE potential within the property boundaries.
• Geophysical Studies : An airborne (drone) magnetic survey will be executed to map
geological features and interpret their relevance to REE mineralization, enhancing
understanding of subsurface structures.
• Geochemical Surveys : Lake bottom sampling, utilizing both sediment and benthic
techniques, will be performed to detect REE or associated anomalies. Complementary soil
sampling from uplands, shorelands, and islands will further delineate geochemical
signatures across the property.
The SL Project consists of 23 claims covering approximately 1,102 hectares, over which the
Company holds an option to acquire a 100% interest (Fig. 1). Situated in the Southeastern Churchill
Province, the property is underlain dominantly by alkaline to calc-alkaline rocks, a geological setting
renowned for REE endowments, as exemplified by the nearby Strange Lake REE district in
northeast Quebec, bordering Newfoundland and Labrador.
The property's lithological composition —primarily granite, mangerite, and quartz monzonite —
positions it as a promising host for REE mineralization. Its proximity (just a few kilometers) and
2
geological correlation to the established Strange Lake district underscore the SL Project's potential
for significant REE deposit discoveries.
“This exploration phase represents a critical milestone in unlocking the value of the SL Project,”
said Lawrence Hay, CEO of New Earth. “By leveraging advanced geophysical and geochemical
methods, we aim to build a robust dataset that will guide our target ed efforts toward identifying
high-potential REE zones. Furthermore, with the first phase of our Lucky Boy uranium project’s
exploration program set to commence in the coming days, we are very excited to be strategically
diversified and positioned to take advantage of both the rare earth and uranium sectors
simultaneously.”
The Company remains committed to responsible exploration practices, adhering to all regulatory
requirements and engaging with local stakeholders in Quebec.

About the Company
New Earth Resources Corp. is a Canadian -based mineral exploration company acquiring and
developing advanced and early-stage exploration projects. Its flagship project is its 100% owned,
past-producing Lucky Boy Uranium Property located in Gila County, Ariz ona, USA. Consisting of
14 Lode Claims, and spanning approximately 273 acres, the Lucky Boy Project covers a small
open pit and underground workings that produced uranium in the 1950's, and again in the 1970's.
In addition to Lucky Boy, included in the Com pany's uranium portfolio are three claims located in
Saskatchewan, Canada covering 365 hectares.
The Company also has the option to acquire a 100% interest in 23 claims covering approximately
1,102 hectares in the Strange Lake area of Quebec, Canada, known as the "SL Project", which is
prospective for rare earth elements. In addition, the Company has the option to acquire a 100%
interest in the Red Wine Rare Earth Project, comprising 2 non -contiguous mineral claims located
in Labrador, Canada covering approximately 1,575 hectares.
