Global Uranium Corp. (CSE:

OTC:

Q3J) (the
“
Company”) and Forum Energy Metals Corp. (TSX.V:
FMC; OTCQB: FDCFF) (“
Forum”) are pleased to
announce that camp construction on the Northwest Athabasca Project
has been initiated. In addition, plans are underway to conduct a
Time Domain Electromagnetic Survey (TDEM) and Direct Current
Resistivity and Induced Polarization (DCIP) Survey on its Spring
Bay target located along the northwest shore of Lake Athabasca in
Saskatchewan, Canada (Figures 1, 2). Geophysical work is expected
to commence in March. Global has an option to earn 51% interest in
Forum’s interest in the NWA Project by spending up to $9M over four
years (see News Release dated May 30, 2024). Forum is the Operator
of the Northwest Athabasca Project.
"The integration of historical geophysical
datasets and legacy drill results gives us an advantage in
identifying areas of high potential," stated Ungad Chadda, CEO of
Global Uranium. "We are pleased that the Forum exploration team’s
knowledge and experience in Saskatchewan unconformity-style uranium
deposits will shape the refined targeting strategy at the NWA
Project, positioning us to unlock the site’s full value
potential."
Rick Mazur, CEO of Forum Energy Metals stated,
“Forum is excited to be building a camp and working again on the
Northwest Athabasca Project. Refinement of the drill targeting is
key to success and the TDEM and DCIP surveys will improve drill
target precision of the prospective Spring Bay
area.”
Camp Construction and Winter Geophysical
Surveys
A 20-person camp is planned on the west side of
Maurice Bay on the Northwest Athabasca Project (Figure 2). The camp
materials will be mobilized to site via a combination of fixed-wing
aircraft on skis as well as by ice road from Uranium City.
Currently camp and drilling equipment and materials are being
shipped and staged in Fond du Lac and Uranium City.
The Spring Bay target hosts a 4 km long, strong
gravity low anomaly, which is coincident with historical drill
holes that have intersected elevated uranium and anomalous clay
alteration. To refine drill targeting, new ground electromagnetic
and resistivity surveys are proposed. A small moving loop TDEM
survey is planned to help refine and understand the orientation and
strength of the conductors in the area. A larger DCIP survey is
planned to provide resistivity and chargeability data over the
Spring Bay target, which will help identify clay alteration systems
at depth. Both the TDEM and DCIP surveys will be used to refine
targeting within the large Spring Bay gravity low anomaly.

future events. In particular, this press release contains
forward-looking information relating to, among other things, the
intention to continue exploration efforts on the Project with the
aim of further unlocking the Project’s potential; and the
expectation that natural attenuation will allow the site to recover
without further action.
Although forward-looking information is based on
the reasonable assumptions of the Company’s management, there can
be no assurance that any forward-looking information will prove to
be accurate. Forward-looking information involves known and unknown
risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause the actual
results, performance or achievements to be materially different
from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or

the risk that exploration of the Project may not continue, whether
as a result of a lack of financial resources, a failure to receive
the requisite permits or approvals, the discretion of management of
the joint venture or otherwise; the risk that exploration of the
Project will not progress as currently contemplated and, that, even
if exploration does proceed as anticipated, such exploration
activities may not achieve their anticipated outcomes; risks
inherent in the exploration and development of mineral projects,
including risks relating to receiving requisite permits and
approvals, changes in project parameters or delays as plans
continue to be redefined, that mineral exploration is inherently
uncertain and that the results of mineral exploration may not be
indicative of the actual geology or mineralization of a project;
the risk that mineral exploration may be unsuccessful or fail to
achieve the results anticipated by the Company; risks related to
