Ground-Based Geophysical Survey to Start Following Completion of Line
Preparation

URU Metals Limited ("URU" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that line
preparation has been completed across both priority survey areas for the
planned ground-based geophysical programme at the Zeb Nickel Project.

The ground-based gravity survey is scheduled to commence today, 15 April 2026,
with the frequency-domain electromagnetic ("FDEM") survey expected to commence
shortly thereafter. The programme forms part of the next phase of exploration
aimed at enhancing the resolution of the previously completed airborne
geophysical surveys.

The airborne programme successfully identified several compelling coincident
gravity-magnetic-electromagnetic anomalies interpreted to be associated with a
magmatic conduit system linking the Uitloop ultramafic bodies. The
higher-resolution ground-based surveys are expected to refine these anomalies,
improve target definition, and better constrain the geometry of conductive
bodies potentially associated with semi-massive nickel sulphide
mineralisation.

The results of the gravity and FDEM surveys will support prioritisation of
drill targets and maximise the effectiveness of the Company's upcoming
drilling campaign.

planned lines commenced on 15 April 2026.

 

 

CEO John Zorbas commented:

"We are very pleased to have completed line preparation across both survey
areas and to now be commencing the ground-based geophysical programme. While
the airborne programme successfully identified several compelling targets, the
higher-resolution ground surveys will allow us to sharpen our focus on the
most prospective semi-massive nickel sulphide targets. This work is designed
to maximise the effectiveness of our upcoming drilling campaign. We are very
excited about the progress being made and look forward to the coming weeks and
months as the surveys advance. We will continue to provide shareholders with
regular updates as results become available."
