NovaRed Mining Files Non-Provisional U.S. Patent Application
NovaRed Mining Files Non-Provisional U.S. Patent Application for AI-
Driven Mineral Evaluation and Transaction Management Platform
Vancouver, British Columbia – May 21, 2026 – NovaRed Mining Inc. (CSE: NRED; OTCQB: NREDF)
(“NovaRed” or the “ Company”) is pleased to announce that it has filed a non -provisional patent
application with the United States Patent and Trademark Office (“USPTO”) in connection with the
Company’s expanding artificial intelligence strategy focused on mineral evaluation, geological
intelligence, and transaction management.
The patent application was filed pursuant to 35 U.S.C. §111(a) under U.S. Patent Application No.
19/680,101. The title of the invention is: “Systems and Methods for Parcel-Level Mineral Evaluation and
Transaction Management Using Integrated Geological Data and Probabilistic Scoring.”
The patent application addresses challenges within mineral exploration and mineral property
evaluation, where geological, geochemical, mining claim, and property data are often fragmented
across multiple unconnected sources and formats, requiring significa nt manual analysis and limiting
parcel-level mineral assessment capabilities. Existing real estate and exploration workflows generally
operate independently and often lack integrated tools for mineral potential evaluation, transaction
management, and docum ent verification. NovaRed’s technology is intended to provide a unified
platform integrating geological datasets, probabilistic scoring methodologies, parcel -level mineral
evaluation, transaction workflows, and document verification mechanisms to support m ineral
assessment and decision-making processes.
The patent application relates to a technology platform designed to integrate geological datasets,
geochemical records, mining claim information, parcel -level mineral evaluation methodologies,
probabilistic scoring models, transaction management capabilities, and document verification systems
to support exploration targeting, asset evaluation, and mineral property workflows.
The platform is intended to incorporate multiple geological and exploration inputs, including historical
exploration records, geophysical and geochemical datasets, remote sensing information, property-level
information, and other technical inputs to assist in mineral evaluation, exploration targeting, and
decision-support processes.
The Company believes artificial intelligence and advanced analytical technologies may play an
increasing role in the future of mineral exploration, project evaluation, and resource development.
“This filing represents an important step in NovaRed’s technology and intellectual property strategy as
we continue advancing AI -driven tools designed to enhance mineral evaluation, exploration
intelligence, and decision-making processes,” stated Brian Gross, President & CEO of NovaRed Mining.
The filing reflects NovaRed’s continued focus on developing technology-enabled approaches to mineral
assessment, exploration workflows, and transaction management within the mining sector. This
application supersedes the provisional patent application that the Company announced in its news
release dated April 17, 2026. While a provision patent provides the filer with 12-month patent pending
status and provides the filer with precedence over competing applications that are subsequently filed,
a non-provisional patent application is the formal, legally binding document that gets reviewed by the
patent office and ultimately matures into an enforceable patent when approved.

FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION
This news release contains forward-looking information within the meaning of applicable Canadian securities legislation. Forward-looking
information includes, but is not limited to, statements regarding Mr. Amsterdam’s expected advisory role, the anticipat ed benefits of his
appointment, the Company’s ESG positioning, responsible critical-minerals strategy, stakeholder engagement, technology-driven mineral
exploration strategy, and the advancement of the Company’s British Columbia copper-gold exploration portfolio.
Forward-looking information is based on a number of assumptions that, while considered reasonable by the Company at the date of this
news release, are inherently subject to significant business, economic and competitive uncertainties and contingencies. Such assumptions
include, without limitation, the review and potential success of the Company’s non-provisional patent application, the planned use of AI
technology on the Wilmac Project and its potential success, the use of the technology by third-parties and the Company’s ability to generate
revenue from such technologies, and the development of additional mineral exploration-related technologies.
Forward-looking information is subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause actual results,
performance or achievements to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward -looking information. Importan t risk
factors include, but are not limited to: the possibility that the 2026 IP/AMT survey results may not support, or may revise, the geological
interpretations described in this news release; the possibility that historical exploration data acquired by the Company may not be
reproducible by current acquisition methods or may be subject to limitations not previously identified; the continued availability of capital
and financing; the ability to satisfy option earn-in requirements on the timelines contemplated, including with respect to the Trojan-Condor
Corridor; failure to receive acceptance for filing by the Canadian Securities Exchange of the Trojan -Condor Corridor option amending
agreement on the timelines contemplated, or at all; risks inherent in mineral exploration; adverse weather or terrain conditions that may
delay or prevent fieldwork; tenure grant, renewal and permitting outcomes, including under British Columbia's revised mineral tenure
system; Indigenous and community consultation requirements ; changes in applicable laws and regulations; the ability to retain key
personnel and contractors; litigation; failure of counterparties to perform their contractual obligations; and general econom ic, market or
