Euro Manganese Achieves Major Permitting Milestone, Further Advancing

Chvaletice Project

VANCOUVER, British Columbia ( January 23, 2025) - Euro Manganese Inc. (TSX- V and ASX: EMN ;

OTCQX: EUMNF; Frankfurt: E06) ( the "Company") announced today that it ’s wholly owned subsidiary ,

Mangan Chvaletice s.r.o. (“Mangan Chvaletice”), has secured the Determination of Mining Lease permit

(the “Permit”), marking the next critical milestone towards the development of the Chvaletice Manganese

Project (the "Project") in the Czech Republic.

The Permit, issued by the District Mining Authority for the regions of Hradec Králové, Pardubice, Liberec,

and Vysočina, represents one of the most significant approvals in the Company’s journey towards full

project permitting. Effective 23 January 2025, the P ermit replaces all prior authorizations and has no

expiration date. It provides Mangan Chvaletice with exclusive, unrestricted rights to mineral extraction within

the designated area and ensures robust legal protection of the project area, enabling the Company to

proceed with the Project’s next phases on an exclusive basis.

Martina Blahova, Interim CEO of Euro Manganese, commented:

"The granting of the Mining Lease for the Project marks another significant milestone for Euro Manganese.

This achievement highlights a successful collaboration between Euro Manganese, federal and regional

regulators and host communities , underscoring a shared commitment to the Project’s progress . A key

asset for Company, the Permit grants exclusive, unrestricted legal rights to extract mineral resources with

no expiration date. This brings Euro Manganese closer to establishing a commercial -scale facility for the

production of high-purity manganese—an essential material for the transition to a greener economy and

the global effort to decarbonize our planet.”
