Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - October 9, 2026) - Elton Resources Corp. (TSXV: DBAY) (formerly Chicane Capital I Corp.) (the "Company") is pleased to announce a non-brokered private placement financing (the "Offering") of up to 22,727,273 "flow through" units of the Company ("FT Units") at a price per FT Unit of $0.22 for aggregate gross proceeds of up to approximately $5,000,000.

Each FT Unit will be comprised of one flow-through common share of the Company (each, a "FT Share") that will qualify as a "flow-through share" within the meaning of subsection 66(15) of the Income Tax Act (Canada) (the "Tax Act") and one-half of one flow-through common share purchase warrant of the Company (each whole warrant, a "FT Warrant") that will qualify as a "flow-through share" within the meaning of subsection 66(15) of the Tax Act. Each whole FT Warrant shall be exercisable for a period of three (3) years from the date of issuance thereof for one common share of the Company (each, a "Warrant Share"), on a non-flow through basis, at an exercise price of $0.30.

The gross proceeds from the issuance of the FT Shares and the FT Warrants will be used to incur "Canadian exploration expenses" as defined in subsection 66.1(6) of the Tax Act that qualify as "flow-through critical mineral mining expenditures" as defined in subsection 127(9) of the Tax Act (the "Qualifying Expenditures"). The Qualifying Expenditures will be incurred on or before December 31, 2027 and will be renounced by the Company to the initial purchasers of the FT Shares and the FT Warrants with an effective date no later than December 31, 2026 in an aggregate amount not less than the gross proceeds raised from the issue of the FT Shares and the FT Warrants. In the event the Company is unable to renounce Qualifying Expenditures effective on or prior to December 31, 2026 for each FT Share and FT Warrant in an aggregate amount not less than the gross proceeds raised from the issue of FT Shares and the FT Warrants, and/or the Qualifying Expenditures are otherwise reduced by the Canada Revenue Agency, the Company will indemnify each subscriber for the additional taxes payable by such subscriber as a result of the Company's failure to renounce the Qualifying Expenditures or as a result of the reduction, in accordance with the terms of the applicable subscription agreement.

It is expected that the FT Units, FT Shares, FT Warrants and Warrant Shares issued pursuant to the Offering will be subject to a hold period of four months and one day from the date of issuance pursuant to applicable securities laws in Canada.

The Offering is expected to close on such date or dates in one or more tranches as may be determined by the Company. The closing of the Offering is subject to certain conditions including, but not limited to, the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange (the "TSXV").

In connection with the Offering, subject to TSXV and other approvals, the Company may pay to certain finders, fees of up to 6.0% in cash and non-transferable warrants equal to up to 6.0% of the number of FT Units sold under the Offering. Each such warrant is expected to be exercisable to acquire one common share of the Company for a period of three (3) years from the date of issuance thereof at an exercise price of $0.20, or such other price as may be acceptable to the TSXV.

Any participation by "related parties" (as such term is defined under Multilateral Instrument 61-101 - Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transaction ("MI 61-101")) of the Company in the Offering will constitute a related party transaction under MI 61-101 but is expected to be exempt from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements of MI 61-101.
