(via TheNewswire)

Vancouver, British Columbia — September 3, 2026 — TheNewswire - Synergy Metals Corp. (“ Synergy ” or the “ Company ”) (CSE: SYN) is pleased to announce that it has commenced the solicitation of contractors and field service providers to execute the Phase 1 exploration program recommended for its flagship Dale Property (the “ Property ”) in Dale Township, Porcupine Mining Division, Ontario. The Company has also retained ClickCatalyst Inc. to provide market awareness services.

The Phase 1 program is the first exploration work Synergy will undertake as a standalone public company, and marks the beginning of a systematic, modern exploration approach to a property that has returned gold in bedrock at surface but has never been drilled.

Phase 1 Work Program

The Phase 1 program follows the recommendations of the independent technical report titled “Technical Report on the Dale Property, Dale Township, Porcupine Mining Division, Ontario, Canada” with an effective date of April 13, 2026, prepared for the Company by SGS Geological Services (the “ Technical Report ”). The Technical Report recommends a two-phase program, with Phase 1 budgeted at approximately $157,493, including a 15% contingency, and estimated to run approximately six weeks in the field.

Synergy is now seeking qualified contractors and suppliers across the following scopes of work:

• Data compilation — senior and project geologists to compile historical exploration data across the Property, with particular attention to regional-scale government geochemical surveys, including the Ontario Geological Survey gold-grain-in-till program  

• B-horizon soil geochemistry — a large-scale soil sampling program of approximately 1,000 samples, focused over areas of anomalous gold grains in till, gold in bedrock, and historical induced polarization (“IP”) chargeability anomalies  

• LiDAR survey — high-resolution topographic and structural survey coverage of the Property  

• Trenching and channel sampling — excavator services including mobilization and demobilization, together with rock saw and Wajax equipment, to expose and channel sample targets generated by the soil survey and to test IP chargeability highs  

• Analytical services — laboratory capacity for approximately 1,000 soil samples and 100 rock samples  

• Field support — geotechnicians, camp accommodation and catering, truck and ATV rentals, and field supplies  

Contractors, consultants and suppliers interested in being considered are invited to contact the Company at CEO@synergymetalscorp.com .

Soil sampling results will be analyzed to identify broader gold trends and to define potential gold-bearing structures and veins for follow-up trenching. Phase 2, which is contingent on Phase 1 results, contemplates 1,500 metres of diamond drilling to test structures outlined by Phase 1.

Why Dale, and Why Now

The Dale Property is an early-stage exploration property with no drilling completed to date. Prior work has nonetheless produced a series of encouraging results that Phase 1 is designed to systematically follow up:

• A grab sample collected in 2020 returned 3.82 g/t gold, the highest-grade sample collected on the Property to date, from a northeast-trending shear  

• Follow-up sampling of that structure over an approximate 10-metre strike length returned 1.57 g/t, 0.647 g/t and 0.061 g/t gold  

• A 2021 trenching program returned a high of 2.6 g/t gold from Trench 3, at the same location as the 3.82 g/t sample  

• A test grid of 49 B-horizon soil samples surrounding Trench 5 returned a high of 54 ppb gold, with 8 of the 49 samples anomalous at greater than 10 ppb gold, indicating that soil sampling is an effective exploration tool on the Property  

• A regional Ontario Geological Survey gold-grain-in-till program identified a sample within the Property boundary returning 42 gold grains  

• Three historical IP surveys, reconnaissance in scale, recorded areas of elevated chargeability not explained by mapped surface geology  

• A drone magnetic survey outlined several prospective northeast-trending structures  

The Property lies within the Swayze greenstone belt, the southwestern extension of the Abitibi greenstone belt, and hosts favourable volcanic rocks together with the roughly 2,500-metre-diameter granodioritic Dale Stock. The granodiorite–volcanic contact, where competency contrast is greatest and where cross-cutting structures intersect it, is considered a high-priority target area.

“This is the moment a plan becomes a program,” said Michael Smith, Chief Executive Officer of Synergy Metals Corp. “Dale has been telling us something for years — gold at surface, gold in till, chargeability that surface geology alone doesn’t explain, and structures that keep pointing in the same direction. What it has never had is a systematic, properly funded, modern exploration program to pull those signals together into drill targets. That is exactly what Phase 1 is built to do, and putting contracts out to tender is how we turn a recommended program into boots on the ground. We are moving with urgency and with discipline, and I could not be more energized about what this team is about to go find.”

Public Awareness Engagement

The Company has engaged ClickCatalyst Inc. (“ClickCatalyst” or the “Publisher”), as a financial publisher, to produce and distribute one sponsored article and related editorial campaign for public awareness purposes (the “Campaign”). ClickCatalyst maintains a business address at 330 5th Avenue SW, Suite 1800, Calgary, Alberta T2P 0L4, and may be contacted at editor@clickcatalyst.ca or (604) 449-1844.

The Campaign will commence for a period of 30 consecutive days upon the latter of the execution of the engagement agreement by both parties, receipt by ClickCatalyst of payment in full in cleared funds, and approval of the article content by the Company. The Campaign is expected to conclude within 60 days of the engagement unless otherwise renewed, allowing for the content production and approval process prior to commencement of the 30-day Campaign period. The Campaign consists of the writing, editing, publication and dissemination of a sponsored article and related editorial content intended to increase public awareness of the Company and to grow the paid subscriber base of the Publisher.

The Campaign will be conducted through the Publisher’s online business and financial publication at www.CapitalRankings.com and related publication channels owned and controlled by the Publisher. ClickCatalyst has received aggregate cash compensation of $100,000, plus applicable taxes, in connection with the Campaign. No part of the compensation consists of shares, warrants, options or other securities of the Company, and no securities of the Company are issuable to ClickCatalyst in connection with the Campaign.

ClickCatalyst is arm’s length to the Company. Prior to entering into the engagement, ClickCatalyst independently purchased for its own account 262,500 common shares of the Company and 462,500 common share purchase warrants of the Company. These securities were acquired independently of the Campaign and do not constitute compensation under the engagement. ClickCatalyst acquired the securities as a passive, long-term investment and presently intends to remain a passive, long-term holder of the Company’s securities. ClickCatalyst may exercise some or all of its warrants in accordance with their terms, which would increase its ownership of the Company. As of the date of this news release, ClickCatalyst beneficially owns less than 10% of the Company’s outstanding voting securities. ClickCatalyst presently intends not to sell any common shares of the Company during the Campaign or for at least 30 days following completion of the Campaign.

Cautionary Notes

Grab samples and channel samples are selective by nature and are not necessarily representative of the mineralization hosted on the Property. Historical results referenced in this news release have not been independently verified by the Company beyond the verification described in the Technical Report, and should not be relied upon as indicative of mineralization that may be present on the Property.

The Dale Property is an early-stage exploration property. There has been no production of any commodity on the Property, no drilling has been completed on the Property, and no mineral resources or mineral reserves have been estimated for the Property. Mineralization occurring on properties in the surrounding region is not necessarily indicative of mineralization that may occur on the Dale Property.

Completion of the Phase 1 program is subject to, among other things, the availability of financing, contractor availability, permitting, weather and seasonal access, and may be altered in the normal course of the Company’s business or as a result of the exploration activities themselves.
