About Eastport Critical Metals Corp.

Eastport is a critical minerals development company advancing five projects in Botswana, with

cumulative historical and current expenditures approaching $20 million. The Company's most advanced

asset is the Matsitama Copper Project, which hosts multiple sizeable targets across the Matsitama

copper district.

The Company's additional projects include Selebi East, a nickel-copper-cobalt project located seven

kilometres east of the historic Selebi Mines; the Semarule Rare Earth Elements Project, positioned

within the Gaborone-Molepolole corridor; the Foley Uranium Project, adjoining the Letlhakane uranium

deposit; and the Keng Project, which targets nickel, copper and PGE's on the northern margin of the

Molopo Farms Complex.

Botswana is widely regarded as one of Africa's strongest mining jurisdictions, combining the continent's

highest GDP per capita with a 50-year track record of large-scale mineral development since the Orapa

diamond discovery in 1967. The country ranks among the top performers globally on the Fraser

Institute's Investment Attractiveness Index and is the highest-rated jurisdiction in Africa on the Policy

Perception Index. These rankings reflect Botswana's stable regulatory environment, consistent rule of

law, and long-standing support for responsible mineral development - factors that have underpinned

significant investment and major M&A activity in the natural resources sector in recent years.
