Blue Sky, Ivana begin drilling at Amarillo Grande

Mr. Nikolaos Cacos reports

BLUE SKY URANIUM COMMENCES DIAMOND DRILLING AT IVANA EAST TARGET, 10 KILOMETRES NORTHEAST OF THE IVANA URANIUM DEPOSIT WITHIN THE AMARILLO GRANDE DISTRICT, ARGENTINA

Blue Sky Uranium Corp. and its joint venture operating company, Ivana Minerales SA, have commenced a new 1,200-metre diamond drilling exploration program at the Ivana East target, located approximately 10 kilometres northeast of the Ivana uranium-vanadium deposit within the company's flagship Amarillo Grande project in Rio Negro province, Argentina.

Geological interpretation indicates that the prospective Chichinales formation, identified as the host unit at the Ivana deposit, extends toward Ivana East. Despite the partial exposure of basement rocks between the two areas, Ivana East preserves the key geological conditions associated with uranium mineralization in the district.

This program represents the first systematic drill testing at Ivana East under the company's joint venture with a subsidiary of Corporacion America Group, and is part of Blue Sky's strategy to expand beyond the Ivana deposit and unlock additional value across the district-scale Amarillo Grande project.

Nikolaos Cacos, Blue Sky president and chief executive officer, commented: "The start of drilling at Ivana East is a key milestone as we continue to explore the broader potential of the Amarillo Grande district. With the support of our JV partner, we are advancing and testing a pipeline of high-quality targets that share important geological characteristics with the Ivana deposit and offer compelling discovery potential close to a well-advanced asset."

The company has recently completed a diamond drilling program at the Ivana Gateway target, located within the same district. A total of 1,188.5 metres were drilled, with the final hole completed in late February, 2026. The drilling contractor has since been mobilized to Ivana East, supporting the continued advancement of exploration activities across the Amarillo Grande project. Final assay results from the Ivana Gateway program are expected by the end of April, 2026.

Ivana East target overview

Ivana East has evolved into a compelling exploration target through the integration of historical data sets and modern geological interpretation. The target was initially identified by airborne radiometric surveys and advanced through follow-up work, including surface radiometry, auger drilling and geophysical surveys, ultimately reaching the drill-ready stage. An initial reverse circulation drilling program was launched at Ivana East in 2023; however, the program was suspended due to equipment issues.

Building on the successful development of the Ivana deposit model, the company now interprets Ivana East as a priority target within the same broader geological framework. The exploration concept is based on the continuation of the prospective Chichinales formation host horizon where permeable sandstones and conglomerates occur near the basement unconformity -- conditions known to host uranium mineralization at Ivana.

Between the Ivana deposit and Ivana East, erosion is interpreted to have removed portions of the sedimentary sequence, leaving basement rocks exposed over much of the intervening area. Nevertheless, the preserved geological framework supports the potential for mineralization within favourable horizons at shallow depth.

The target is defined by several key elements that are also observed at the Ivana deposit: shallow depths to prospective horizons (approximately 10 to 30 metres), favourable geological architecture and geophysical responses consistent with porous sedimentary units overlying basement rocks.

2026 diamond drilling program

The 2026 program comprises an initial diamond drilling campaign of up to approximately 1,200 metres, designed to test priority zones within the Ivana East target area.

The program includes a series of scout drill holes with an average depth of approximately 50 metres, targeting shallow uranium mineralization along the unconformity between the Chichinales formation and the underlying basement rocks.

To further support a geological model, the program includes one and potentially two drill holes planned to be extended to depths of approximately 100 metres. These deeper holes are part of the same drill fence and designed to test unit continuity toward the east, where the basement surface is interpreted to occur at greater depth. The holes will provide information to refine the geological interpretations, identify key alteration patterns and better define redox boundaries prior to follow-up drilling.

The use of diamond drilling will provide continuous core recovery, enabling detailed geological, structural and alteration logging -- critical inputs for refining the exploration model and guiding subsequent drilling phases.

About Blue Sky Uranium Corp.

Blue Sky is a leader in uranium discovery in Argentina. The company's objective is to deliver exceptional returns to shareholders by rapidly advancing a portfolio of uranium deposits into low-cost producers while respecting the environment, the communities and the cultures in all the areas in which the company works. Blue Sky's flagship Amarillo Grande project was an in-house discovery of a new district that has the potential to be both a leading domestic supplier of uranium to the growing Argentine market and a new international market supplier. The company's recently optioned Corcovo project has demonstrated potential to host an in situ recovery uranium deposit. The company is a member of the Grosso Group, a resource management group that has pioneered exploration in Argentina since 1993.
