• Al Qaryan International is the global commodities trading arm of Al Qaryan Group.
• With the onboarding of AQI onto Jules, MineHub further expands its Middle East presence and further establishes itself as a leading digital provider for commodities traders.

Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - September 15, 2026) - MineHub Technologies Inc. (TSXV: MHUB) (OTCQB: MHUBF) ("MineHub" or the "Company"), a leading provider of digital supply chain solutions for the commodity markets, is pleased to announce that following a commercial agreement earlier this year, Al Qaryan International (AQI), the international trading arm of Al Qaryan Group, is now live on the Jules platform. AQI, based in Dubai, operates as both a broker and a trading facilitator for scrap and processed materials across international markets, specializing in semis and refined metals, ferrous and non-ferrous metals, plastics and minerals. Al Qaryan Group, AQI's parent company, operates more than 15 recycling and production facilities in the Middle East with an annual recycling capacity of over 1.5 million tons of material.

Andrea Aranguren, CEO of MineHub, commented: "We are pleased to welcome Al Qaryan International to the Jules platform. This deployment is particularly significant on three fronts: first, it validates Jules across the full spectrum of physical trade logistics, from bulk to containers to inland road operations; second, it marks a meaningful step in our commercial penetration of the Gulf market; and third, it demonstrates the platform's ability to support sophisticated hedging workflows alongside physical trade execution. Al Qaryan International is led by a highly innovative leadership team, and we look forward to partnering on new features and services, such as AI automation deployments."

AQI deployed Jules to streamline its trade operations across three logistics modalities - bulk vessel shipments, containerized international trade, and road-based regional deliveries - and to further enhance the level of service delivered to its global client base. The scope of the deployment also covers sophisticated hedging workflows, with London Metals Exchange (LME) position management and pricing exposure tracking integrated into the trade lifecycle.

Accelerating in a Vast Market Segment

The Company's success in securing this agreement reflects the growing role of Gulf-based traders in the global recycled non-ferrous metals market. Saudi Arabia and the wider Gulf Cooperation Council have emerged as an increasingly important origination hub for scrap flows moving toward Asian smelters and refiners, driven by strong regional collection volumes and proximity to the shipping routes that feed manufacturing demand across the Indian subcontinent, Southeast Asia, and China. At the same time, the sustained volatility of copper, aluminum and other base metals on the LME has made disciplined hedging and real-time exposure management a competitive necessity rather than a back-office concern. Traders operating at this intersection of physical execution and active price-risk management need integrated digital infrastructure that can handle both. MineHub is well positioned to serve this profile by consolidating trade execution, hedging, and reporting into a single workflow.
