iMetal Resources Confirms Private Placement

Is Fully Subscribed

Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - August 5, 2026) -

iMetal Resources, Inc. (TSXV: IMR)

(OTCQB: IMRFF) (FSE: A7VA)

("

iMetal

" or the "

Company

") confirms that its previously announced

non-brokered private placement (the "

Offering

") is now fully subscribed.

The Offering consists of

30,000,000 Units (each, a "

Unit

"), at a price of $0.10 per Unit, for gross proceeds of $3,000,000.

Each Unit consists of one common share in the capital of the Company (each, a "

Share

") and one

transferable share purchase warrant of the Company (each, a "

Warrant

").

Each Warrant entitles the

holder thereof to purchase one additional Share of the Company at a price of $0.175 for a period of

thirty-six months after the closing of the Offering. The Warrants will be subject to an accelerated expiry if,

any time after the date that is four months and one day after the closing date of the Offering, the volume-

weighted average trading price of the Shares on the TSX Venture Exchange ("

TSXV

") exceeds $0.40

for twenty (20) consecutive trading days, in which event the holders of the Warrants may, at the

Company's election, be given notice and the Company will issue a press release announcing the

Warrants will expire thirty (30) days following the date of such press release.

McFarlane Lake Mining Limited (CSE: MLM) ("

MLM

") has agreed to participate (the "

Investment

") in

the Offering in the amount of 14,200,852 Units.

This will result in MLM holding 19.9% of the outstanding

common shares of the Company upon completion of the Offering.

In connection with the Investment, the

Company and MLM have entered into an investor rights agreement, to be effective upon closing of the

Offering, pursuant to which MLM will be entitled to nominate one member of the board of directors of the

Company and to advise the Company on exploration activities at the Company's Gowganda West

property. This will allow the Company to draw upon MLM's technical expertise and regional experience in

support of exploration planning and execution.

"MLM's investment is a strong endorsement of Gowganda West and of the strategy we have been

executing," said Saf Dhillon, President & CEO of iMetal. "Beyond the capital, this strategic investment

brings us a partner with substantial Abitibi exploration experience and technical capability that can be

applied directly to our flagship project. We are pleased to welcome MLM as a significant shareholder

and we look forward to having their support as we advance our exploration programs."

The Company intends to use the net proceeds of the Offering towards further exploration at the

Company's properties as well as for general working capital.

Integrity Capital Group Inc. ("

Integrity

") is acting as financial advisor, and Cassels Brock & Blackwell

LLP is acting as legal advisor, to the Company in connection with the Offering.

consisting of: (i) a cash commission equal to 8% of the gross proceeds from subscribers introduced by

Integrity to the Offering; and (ii) non-transferable broker warrants (each, a "

Broker Warrant

") equal to

8% of the number of Units sold to subscribers introduced by Integrity to the Offering. Each Broker

Warrant will entitle the holder to acquire one Unit at an exercise price of $0.10 for a period of thirty-six

months after the closing of the Offering.

In connection with the Offering, the Company may also pay finders' fees to additional eligible third parties

who have assisted in introducing subscribers.
