Mineral ROAD to Acquire Swedish Tungsten Assets, Announces Financing
MINERAL ROAD DISCOVERY INC.
NEWS RELEASE
MINERAL ROAD TO ACQUIRE SWEDISH TUNGSTEN ASSETS, ANNOUNCES FINANCING
Vancouver, B.C. – May 23, 2025 ‐ Mineral Road Discovery Inc. (CSE: ROAD) (the “Company” or “ROAD”)
announces that it has entered into a binding agreement to acquire the Bergslagen Tungsten Project in Sweden.
The Bergslagen Tungsten Project, Sweden consists of eight mineral concessions located in the Bergslagen
region near the municipality of Ludvika, which is approximately 220 km from Stockholm. Each of the
properties have had some level of historic production for tungsten, iron or molybdenum with the oldest mines
dating back to the 17th century. There has been a considerable amount of work performed in the region and
as such there is a significant amount of historical information available on the properties, however, neither of
the properties have been explored using modern techniques and all have untested prospects.
The Bergslagen region has a long history of mining and smelting that dates back over a millennium. Within
the municipality of Ludvika alone, there are more than 550 historical mines registered. There is an extensive
network of paved highways and rail services in the region and the national power grid passes through or nearby
all of the properties. The nearest seaport is Gävle, approximately 155 km northeast of the properties. A large
network of unpaved roads allows easy access to large portions of the properties.
An initial focus for the Company will be the Yxsjöberg permit. The Yxsjöberg mine exploited a number of
deposits that made it the most important producer of tungsten in Sweden. The mine was in operation by the
State-owned mining company until 1989.
All properties are covered by low altitude airborne surveys consisting of total magnetic field, VLF and
spectrometry, carried out by the Geological Survey of Sweden. In addition, regional biogeochemical sampling
has been carried out. During the 1970s and 1980s, a large number of heavy minerals in till samples were taken,
both by the Geological Survey and a state-owned mining company, LKAB.
Drilling has been conducted on several targets within the permitted areas. ROAD will first ensure that all
historical data is digitally compiled and then begin detailed exploration work tailored to each permit.
Terms
ROAD has entered into a definitive acquisition agreement with 1521480 B.C. Ltd. (the “Vendor”) dated May
22, 2025 to acquire a 100% interest in NewPeak Sweden OY (“NewPeak Sweden”), which holds the eight
exploration permits in central Sweden, in consideration of the issuance of 2,700,000 ROAD Shares to the
original property owner (the “Previous Owner”), and the payment to the Vendor of $300,000 in cash and/or
marketable securities owned by ROAD. An additional milestone payment of $250,000 will be payable to the
Previous Owner if exploration expenditures exceed $250,000 within 30 months of closing, with an additional
$750,000 payment upon the reporting of a JORC inferred resource of a minimum of 3mt at 0.3% WOBE. The
milestone payments can be made by cash or ROAD shares, at the option of the Company.
The Vendor is owned by a trust that is controlled by Damien Reynolds (the “Joint Actor”) who is a director of
ROAD and owns and controls, directly and indirectly, an aggregate of 53,112,150 ROAD shares representing
approximately 57.3% of the issued and outstanding ROAD Shares as at the date hereof. Accordingly, t he
acquisition of an interest in NewPeak Sweden will be considered a “related party transaction ” within the
meaning of Multilateral Instrument 61-101 – Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions
(“MI 61-101”). The Company is relying on exemptions under sections 5.5(a) and 5.7(1)(a) of MI 61-101 from
the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements, as the amount of the consideration paid
to the Vendor does not exceed 25% of the Company's market capitalization as determined in accordance with
MI 61-101.
