NORD PRECIOUS METALS ANNOUNCES OTCQB US SYMBOL CHANGE TO "NPMMF"

The Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) has approved a change of Nord Precious Metals Mining Inc.'s stock symbol trading on the OTC Markets. Effective today, Monday, June 29, 2026, the company's common shares now trade on the OTC Markets under the symbol NPMMF (OTCQB: NPMMF). The previous trading symbol was CCWOF.

The selection of a new symbol, NPMMF, has been chosen by the company to reflect its name, Nord Precious Metals Mining Inc., which main focus is on its flagship Castle silver project in Northern Ontario.

About Nord Precious Metals Mining Inc.

Nord Precious Metals Mining operates TTL Laboratories, the only permitted high-grade milling facility in the historic Cobalt camp of Ontario, where the company has established an integrated position connecting high-grade silver discovery with strategic metals recovery operations.

The company's 63-square-kilometre flagship Castle property, with the addition of 225 hectares of leases, now hosts three of the five most productive past-producing silver mines in the Gowganda camp: Siscoe-O'Brien, Castle and Millerett, complemented by the Castle East discovery where drilling has delineated 7.56 million ounces of silver in a now-historic inferred resource grading an average of 8,582 grams per tonne silver (250.2 ounces per ton) in 27,400 tonnes of material from two sections (1A and 1B) of the Castle East Robinson zone, beginning at a vertical depth of approximately 400 metres. The report is titled "NI 43-101 Technical Report Mineral Resource Estimate for Castle East, Robinson Zone, Ontario, Canada," with effective date of May 28, 2020. Mineral resources that are not mineral reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability. Please refer to the Nord Precious Metals' press release dated May 27, 2020, for the resource estimate.

The above resource is now considered a historical resource. This historical resource remains relevant in that there is continuing drilling to expand the known mineralization associated with that resource. The 2020 mineral resource was estimated in conformity with CIM (Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum) Estimation of Mineral Resource and Mineral Reserves Best Practices Guidelines and is reported in accordance with Canadian Securities Administrators' National Instrument 43-101. Insufficient work has been done since to categorize the above historical estimate as current. Significant additional diamond drilling and analytical work, along with modelling, are required before a new resource estimate can be compiled.

In addition to underground exploration targets, the newly acquired leases host a historical NI 43-101 indicated tailings resource of approximately 1.94 million tonnes grading 47.5 grams per tonne silver for approximately 2.96 million contained ounces of silver at a 10-gram-per-tonne cut-off (GeoVector Management, 2011, based on 764 drill holes totalling 3,012 metres). Subsequent work has been done, indicating potential higher grades. A new technical report is required to compile and include all subsequent work. The historical estimate contained in this news release has not been verified as a current mineral resource. A qualified person (as defined in NI 43-101) has not done sufficient work to classify the historical estimate as a current mineral resource, and the company is not treating the historical estimate as a current mineral resource. The company considers the historical estimate to be relevant for the proper understanding of the project; however, significant data compilation, redrilling, resampling and data verification may be required by a qualified person for the historical estimate to be in accordance with NI 43-101 standards and to verify the historical estimate as a current mineral resource.

Nord's integrated processing strategy enables multiple metal recovery streams. High-grade silver recovery supports the economics of extracting critical minerals, including cobalt, nickel and other strategic metals. The Re-2Ox hydrometallurgical process, validated at pilot scale through SGS Lakefield, eliminates the typical arsenic barriers in complex silver-cobalt ores while producing technical-grade cobalt sulphate and other metal products to customer specifications. This multimetal approach, combined with established infrastructure including TTL Laboratories and underground mine access, positions Nord within Ontario's emerging critical minerals supply chain.

The company maintains a strategic portfolio of critical minerals properties in Northern Quebec through its 35-per-cent ownership in Coniagas Battery Metals Inc. as well as the St. Denis-Sangster lithium project comprising 32 square kilometres of prospective ground near Cochrane, Ont.

We seek Safe Harbor.
