ARBOR METALS ANNOUNCES PRIVATE PLACEMENT

Arbor Metals Corp. has announced a non-brokered private placement offering of up to 3 million units priced at $0.14 per unit, targeting gross proceeds of up to $420,000. Each unit comprises one common share and one warrant exercisable at $0.22 for 36 months, though warrant exercise is restricted for the first 60 days post-closing. The offering utilizes the listed issuer financing exemption, making the units immediately free-trading under Canadian securities laws.

The company plans to direct proceeds toward exploration activities at its Jarnet lithium project located in Quebec's James Bay region, with remaining funds allocated to general working capital. The Jarnet project, along with the company's Corvette Lake and St. Pierre lithium properties, comprises 83 claims covering approximately 5,606 hectares in the strategically important James Bay lithium district.

Arbor's project portfolio is positioned in proximity to significant lithium developments, with the Jarnet project contiguous to the Corvette-FCI property where drilling has confirmed substantial lithium mineralization. The company also holds the Kemlee Lake Lithium project, strategically located near Rock Tech Lithium's Aumacho claims and the Georgia Lake Project, targeting spodumene-bearing pegmatites in similar geological settings.

The financing remains subject to TSX Venture Exchange approval and reflects continued investor interest in Quebec's emerging lithium sector. The James Bay region has become a focal point for lithium exploration in Canada, benefiting from established infrastructure and proximity to processing facilities, positioning Arbor to capitalize on growing demand for battery-grade lithium materials in North American supply chains.
