VISIONARY METALS AWARDED US$250,000 IN ENERGY MATCHING FUNDS FROM WYOMING ENERGY AUTHORITY

Visionary Metals Corp. has been awarded $250,000 (U.S.) in energy matching funds by the Wyoming Energy Authority on behalf of Governor Mark Gordon. The grant supports geophysical components of the company's King Solomon and Tin Cup nickel and copper projects in Fremont county, Wyoming.

The funding will advance ground and borehole electromagnetic surveys to better define high-priority critical metal targets at King Solomon and Tin Cup. These state-of-the-art geophysical methods will refine drill targets for nickel-copper sulphide mineralization. The resulting high-resolution data will also be shared with the Wyoming Geological Survey under a three-year confidentiality period for future public and WGS use, enhancing the broader understanding of Wyoming's critical metal systems.

"Wyoming's continued support for its resource economy is helping drive new investment in energy and critical metals across the state, and we are pleased that Visionary's project has been selected for this important initiative," said Wesley Adams, chief executive officer of Visionary. "We are grateful to Governor Gordon, the WEA and the review committee for this award. The $250,000 (U.S.) in EMF funding, combined with proceeds from our recently closed oversubscribed $7.44-million financing, allows us to deploy advanced ground and borehole EM geophysics to enhance our large copper and nickel sulphide targets at King Solomon and Tin Cup, which will be drill tested later this year. We look forward to these surveys generating valuable public data that benefits the Wyoming Geological Survey, researchers and the next generation of explorers across the state."

Highlights:

• EMF funding enhances geophysics budget in direct support of 2026 drill programs targeting large nickel and copper sulphide targets at King Solomon and Tin Cup;
• Allows for enhanced delineation of new and existing targets at both projects;
• Generates detailed geophysical data sets that will support Visionary's future drilling while also enhancing statewide critical mineral databases for the Wyoming Geological Survey, academics and future explorers;
• Aligns with Wyoming's all of the above energy strategy by advancing domestic sources of nickel and copper -- key metals for stainless steel, electric vehicles, battery storage and electrical infrastructure.

The project reflects Visionary's continuing commitment to exploration in Wyoming, where it has spent over $5-million (U.S.) to date on critical mineral exploration.

About Visionary Metals Corp.

Visionary Metals is a Vancouver-based exploration company with two paths to value creation for shareholders: advancement of two nickel and copper sulphide projects within a 40-square-kilometre land package in Wyoming's Granite Mountains as part of a strategic exploration alliance with Teck American Inc.; and the exploration of the newly acquired Slipstream copper-gold-silver porphyry project spanning Tier 1 mining jurisdictions of Utah and Nevada. Visionary aims to create value for shareholders by systematically advancing these assets toward discovery and resource definition to become a leading explorer and future developer of U.S. nickel, copper, gold and silver projects.

We seek Safe Harbor.
