JADE LEADER ANNOUNCES NEW TECHNICAL PUBLICATION ON ITS

WYOMING JADES AVAILABLE FROM THE JOURNAL OF GEMMOLOGY

CALGARY, ALBERTA – Jade Leader Corp. (TSX.V: JADE) (“Jade Leader” or “the Company”)

announces that its most recent scientific article outlining results from continuing research and investigation

of its 100% owned Wyoming Jade (USA) properties, published in the March, 2024 issue of The Journal Of

Gemmology, is now publicly accessible online here . The Company thanks the British Gemmological

Association (Gem-A), publisher of this important international scientific journal for permission to distribute

the link.

“Nephrite Jade from the Sky Zone, USA: Characteristics and Primary Hydrothermal Origin.” is one of the

issue’s main feature articles, outlining results of in-depth technical studies on the genesis of Jade Leader’s

Wyoming Jades. High-level, scientific articles like this bring technical details of these new gemstones to the

attention of the international gemstone market and substantially increase our Jade’s visibility in the rapidly

diminishing Jade supply chain. They also lay out the characteristics and testing parameters for third parties to

properly test and evaluate our jades. Importantly, the special geological relationships documented regarding

formation of Sky Jade significantly enhance exploration for new jade targets across all of Jade Leader’s

Wyoming properties.

“As the trend towards ethically sourced colored gems continues and synthetics drive the gem world away

from diamonds, articles like this give the gem industry the technical information they need to appreciate the

near and long-term market potential for these new American Jades,” stated JP Jutras, P.Geol, President of the

Company. “Jade supplies are dwindling worldwide and we are revolutionizing understanding of the

previously undocumented geological processes behind Wyoming nephrite Jade formation. Articles like this

significantly increase the visibility of our products and expertise and it is an honor to share it with the

worldwide gemmological community through the highly respected Journal of Gemmology.”

Company President JP Jutras prepared the 18 page feature article in collaboration with independent geologist

Lanny Ream and Bear and Cara Williams of independent Stone Group Labs, both Fellows of the

Gemmological Association of Great Britain (FGA). The article is based largely on characterization work

performed on our Wyoming Jades at University of Alberta’s Earth and Atmospheric Sciences Department

electron microprobe laboratory with the assistance of Dr. Andrew Locock. The article was independently

peer reviewed by gem experts, as is standard for feature articles in The Journal of Gemmology.
