Stallion Uranium Closes Sale of Non-Core Uranium Projects in Eastern Athabasca Basin

VANCOUVER, British Columbia, June 03, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Stallion Uranium Corp. (the "Company" or "Stallion") (TSX-V: STUD; OTCQB: STLNF; FSE: HM40) is pleased to announce that, further to its news release dated February 13, 2024, the Company has closed the purchase and sale agreement dated February 12, 2024 (the "Agreement"), under which the Company has sold Glorious Creation Limited ("Glorious") 100% interest in its three Eastern Basin Projects, comprising seven (7) mineral claims totalling approximately 10,874 hectares (26,870 acres) located in the Province of Saskatchewan (the "Property").

" All three projects are located in the heart of the world-renowned Eastern Athabasca Basin and hold potential for a high-grade discovery. The closing of this sale will bring exploration programs to these projects, and Stallion is aligned to benefit from that exploration success," stated Drew Zimmerman CEO. "Our technical and geological team will be working with Glorious to manage the exploration efforts, but the sale allows for Stallion to remain focused on our targets in the southwestern Athabasca Basin, including our Appaloosa target that saw great success on our maiden drill program, moving the company towards a discovery."

Pursuant to the Agreement, Glorious shall acquire a 100% interest in the Property for the following consideration to the Company:

• concurrently with the signing the Agreement, a cash payment of $100,000.00 (the "Deposit"), which one half of the Deposit ($50,000) will be refundable by the Company to Glorious should Glorious does not obtain approval from the Canadian Securities Exchange ("CSE");
• on the date of the Closing (the "Closing Date"), a cash payment of $300,000;
• an aggregate of 2,500,000 common shares of Glorious (each, a "Share") to be issued to the Company as follows:
  • 500,000 Shares on the date which is six (6) months following the Closing Date,
  • 500,000 Shares on the date which is twelve (12) months following the Closing Date,
  • 500,000 Shares on the date which is eighteen (18) months following the Closing Date, and
  • 1,000,000 Shares on the date which is twenty-four (24) months following the Closing Date.
    

The Company shall retain a royalty of three percent (3%) of net smelter returns from minerals mined and removed from the Property, of which Glorious may purchase up to one and one-half percent (1.5%) at any time prior to commercial production on the Property as follows: $500,000 for one-half percent (0.5%); $750,000 for an additional one-half percent (0.5%); and $1,000,000 for an additional one-half percent (0.5%).

The Company and Glorious have also entered into an operating agreement (the "Operating Agreement") pursuant to which Stallion will conduct an agreed upon exploration program on one or more of the Properties for an operating fee.

Figure 1 ? Stallion Uranium's Eastern Basin Projects

The projects are located in the Eastern Athabasca Basin with the Wollaston and Mudjatik Supergroups. The region has been the focus of uranium exploration over the last 50 years and is host to the world class Cigar Lake and McArthur River Uranium Deposits which together host over 550M pounds of uranium. Uranium mineralization in the Eastern Athabasca Basin occurs in three deposit types: 1) unconformity-hosted uranium which occur at the contact between the overlying Athabasca Basin and the crystalline basement rocks; 2) basement-hosted uranium which occur within the basement rocks; 3) sandstone-hosted uranium which occur perched in the Athabasca sandstone. The projects have the potential to host all three uranium deposit types. Given that uranium mineralization is structurally controlled, the company will be utilizing the recently completed magnetic and electromagnetic survey data to identify structural areas for advanced exploration.

Additionally, the Company has engaged Knox Communications Inc. ("Knox") to provide investor relations services for a period of six (6) months commencing June 1, 2024, for a consideration of $4,000 CAD per month and renewing for additional one-month terms unless terminated by either party, pursuant to an agreement dated May 31, 2024. The Company has granted 200,000 stock options, exercisable at $0.10 expiring on May 31, 2029 to Knox pursuant to the agreement. The stock options are issued pursuant to the Company's share option plan and are subject to vesting conditions. Knox does not currently own any interest, directly or indirectly, in the Company or its securities.
