("URU" or the "Company")

 

Commencement of Ground Geophysics & Regulatory Update

URU Metals Limited is pleased to announce the appointment of GF International
(Pty) Ltd ("GeoFocus") to undertake a combined ground gravity and
frequency-domain electromagnetic ("EM") survey over two priority targets at
the Company's Zeb Nickel Project near Mokopane, Limpopo, South Africa. The
work is designed to refine conductor geometry and generate decision-ready
drill targets.

Regulatory & ESG update (rehabilitation guarantee)

In parallel, URU has appointed a specialist service provider to implement the
environmental rehabilitation guarantee which is required for the granting of
the Zeb Nickel mining right. The engagement covers issuance of the guarantee
on terms that would be acceptable to the regulator and consistent with the
Company's agreed financial-provisioning framework.

Richard Montjoie, Exploration VP, commented: "Transitioning from airborne
targeting to ground geophysics is the critical step to refine our
highest-priority conductors along the intrusive margins. The programme is
designed to generate decision-ready targets for efficient drilling at Zeb
Nickel. While the team is busy with the ground geophysics, we're also locking
in the practical legislative compliance pieces. Putting the rehabilitation
guarantee provider in place is a simple, value-protective step that keeps the
Project on the front foot."

Geophysics Programme highlights

·    Targets & coverage: Two grids totalling ~117.4 hectares with
survey designs aligned to current access constraints.

·    Gravity: ~475 stations on a 50 m grid using Scintrex CG-5 gravimeters
with GNSS (RTK) GPS control; estimated to take 3 - 4 field days.

·    Ground EM: ~22.45 line-km at 50 m line × 25 m station spacing using
an IRIS PROMIS-10 frequency-domain system; with an initial 200 m coil spacing;
estimated to take 3 - 4 field days.

·    Deliverables: Final data and interpretative report upon completion,
informing plate modelling and conductor ranking to support drill-target
selection.

Schedule

Mobilisation is scheduled to commence in later October 2025, with acquisition
expected to complete within 30 field days, subject to weather, line clearing
and on-site access. The Company will provide an update on modelling outputs
and drill parameters upon receipt and review of the contractor's report.
