V Ten Metals Announces Drill Program Update

at the Tanami Property, NT, Australia

Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - August 14, 2026) -

V Ten Metals Corp. (TSXV: VTEN)

("

VTen

" or the "

Company

") is pleased to announce the completion of site preparation works and the

mobilization of the drill rig to commence the inaugural drill program at the Company's Tanami Property

(the "

Property

"), located in the Tanami District of the Northern Territory, Australia. The Property consists

of four semi-contiguous granted exploration licenses ("

ELs

") EL 23848, EL 31402, EL 23874 and EL

23875, covering 1,237 sq km located in the Tanami Desert approximately 450km directly northwest of

Alice Springs, Northern Territory, Australia.

This drill program marks the first drill testing to date along two highly prospective trends as well as the

first drill program by the Company on the Property to date. This drill program will be comprised of 6-10

drill holes for an approximate total of 2,150 m of RC drilling. The program is designed to test a series of

high-priority nickel-copper-PGE targets, integrating historical Aircore geochemistry with magnetic and

HeliTEM geophysical anomalies. The objective is to confirm sulphide mineralisation within fresh

bedrock, validate geophysical models, and define the geological controls and continuity of mineralisation

along a northeast-trending corridor. The Company has engaged United Drilling Services of Sarina,

Queensland, to carry out the Reverse Circulation (RC) drill program at the Property.

Blair Way, VTen President, CEO and Director, commented: "

With the drill rig mobilization, we are

hitting our next milestone to advance the Property and gain a deeper understanding of the property.

This initial drill program will orient an aggressive follow-up drill campaign with the objective of

unlocking the significant potential of the Property and building shareholder value in the process."
