NordX confirms 0.68% U3O8 over 11.3 m from 21.2 m depth at Riutta, Finland

Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - August 5, 2026) - NordX Metals Corp. (CSE: NRDX) (OTCQB: NRDMF) (FWB: 0UL0) ("NordX" or the "Company") is pleased to announce assay results from a historical drill core resampling program confirming significant, shallow uranium mineralization at its 100%-owned Riutta project ("Riutta"), near Joensuu in eastern Finland.

The best result came from the Ristimonttu prospect where drill hole AREVA DH1 intersected 11.3 metres ("m") at 0.68% uranium oxide ("U 3 O 8 ") from 21.20 to 32.50m including 3.7m grading 1.52% U 3 O 8 between 28.30 and 32.00m. The estimated true thickness of the interval is 8.6m. AREVA (now Orano) drilled the hole in 2008. The core went unassayed amid the company's global restructuring and a downturn in uranium prices, ahead of the 2010 sale of its Finnish uranium assets to Mawson Resources which subsequently sampled this same interval and reported a historical result in 2011 that is consistent with NordX's result above. This historical result has not been verified by the Company's Qualified Person and should not be relied upon.

Other notable results from the newly sampled intervals include:

2m at 0.20% U 3 O 8 between 62.80m and 64.80m, including 0.5m at 0.66% U 3 O 8 between 63.8m and 64.3m from Atomienergia's drill hole AE-7;

1.75m at 0.033% U 3 O 8 between 39.75m and 41.5m including 0.6m at 0.07% U 3 O 8 between 39.75m and 40.35m from AREVA's drill hole DH2;

0.85m at 0.094% U 3 O 8 between 5.8m and 6.65m from AREVA drill hole DH1; and

2.6m at 0.17% U 3 O 8 between 22.2m and 24.8m from Outokumpu drill hole EP038.

Anomalous grades of copper and silver were also identified together with some of the elevated uranium grades with maximum assay values grading up to 0.45% Cu and 46g/t Ag in AREVA DH1 (see Appendix, below).
