GRANDE PRAIRIE, ALBERTA (February 5, 2026): Angkor Resources Corp. (TSXV: ANK,OTC:ANKOF) (‘ANGKOR’ OR ‘THE COMPANY’) is pleased to announce that nine Indigenous community land titles have been formally granted to Indigenous communities in Ratanakiri Province, Cambodia, following a three-year recognition process. Angkor has supported Indigenous community rights since first establishing operations in the province, which is home to approximately 45% of Cambodia’s Indigenous population.

The Company’s Andong Meas mineral exploration license is situated within the traditional land of these Indigenous communities. Angkor recognizes the importance of these land titles and is committed to working collaboratively with the communities on whose land the Company operates. The formal recognition of these land titles is a significant milestone for the Indigenous peoples of Ratanakiri and reinforces Angkor’s long-standing commitment to respectful and cooperative engagement with local communities.

Delayne Weeks, CEO, commented ‘We are very pleased that these nine community land titles have been formally recognized. Angkor has supported Indigenous community rights since setting foot in the province, and this achievement reflects years of collaborative effort  between Angkor and the communities. Our Andong Meas license sits within these traditional lands, and we are committed to working alongside these communities as partners, ensuring mutual respect and shared benefit as we advance our exploration activities.’

SOCIAL PROGRAMS AND COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT

In addition to its support for Indigenous land rights, Angkor continues to advance a range of social programs across its areas of operation in Cambodia. The Company works closely with local authorities, who are present at all sessions, and sponsors community training initiatives aimed at improving safety, health, and education outcomes for Cambodian families.

The Company’s current social programs, stretching across the oil territory of Block VIII and the two mineral license areas include:

• English Language Training: Angkor provides English language training for children in the communities surrounding its operations, giving young Cambodians valuable language skills to support future education and employment opportunities. 

• Water Filters and Latrines: The Company is now implementing the installation of water filtration systems and latrines in communities across the Block VIII oil and gas license area, improving access to clean water and sanitation for families in rural Cambodia. 

• Moto Vehicle Safety Training: Angkor sponsors moto vehicle safety training sessions focused on proper operation of motorcycles, which are the primary mode of transportation in rural Cambodia. Motorcycle-related injuries and fatalities, particularly among children, remain a serious concern in the region, and these sessions are designed to reduce harm and save lives. 

• Financial Fraud Awareness: The Company sponsors training sessions of financial scam awareness, educating community members on how to identify and avoid fraud through mobile phones and messaging platforms such as Telegram. These sessions help protect vulnerable populations from increasingly common digital financial scams.

Angkor has reached over 1,500 students through its sponsored training sessions to date. All sessions are conducted in partnership with local authorities, who attend and participate in the delivery of program content to their communities.

Weeks added, ‘Our commitment to social responsibility is a core part of who we are as a company. Working with Indigenous communities, local authorities, and families across Cambodia is not separate from our resource exploration activities – it is fundamental to how we operate. We believe that building trust and creating value for communities creates a stronger foundation for everything we do.’

Vancouver, Canada TheNewswire – February 05, 2026 Spartan Metals Corp. (‘Spartan’ or the ‘Company’) (TSX-V: W OTCQB: SPRMF | FSE: J03) is pleased to announce that within its recently staked land expansion of the Tungstonia Claim block at its 100% owned Eagle Project in eastern Nevada, included the acquisition of the past producing(1) Yellow Jacket Tungsten Mine on the historic Yellow Jacket Claims. The Yellow Jacket Tungsten Mine is located approximately 2 kilometers (km) E-NE of the legacy Tungstonia Mine (Figure 1).

Rebecca Ball, Spartan’s VP of Exploration, states, ‘Acquiring an additional, past producing tungsten mine in the district is an exciting development for Spartan as it allows the team to evaluate and explore both the vein system at Tungstonia and skarn type mineralization potential at Yellow Jacket. Our geologic work continues to expand the footprint of tungsten mineralization at the Eagle Project that commonly exceeds 1.0% WO3. The higher-grade material that was historically produced from the Yellow Jacket Tungsten Mine combined with the known production from our Tungstonia and Rees tungsten mines indicates a significant tungsten endowment in the district, and we are focused on expanding this district-scale exploration project.’

The Yellow Jacket Claims were historically mined as a skarn style deposit with scheelite mineralization hosted within the favorable Guilmette Formation carbonates along the contact with the Tungstonia Pluton. The Guilmette is also in contact with the Tungstonia Pluton at the Rees Mine with known scheelite mineralization and along the southern edge of the Tungstonia Pluton where Spartan recently identified a large tungsten soil anomaly (Figures 1 and 2). The presence of this large tungsten soil anomaly at this favorable contact and its similarity to the Yellow Jacket and Rees mines suggests the potential for strong, skarn type mineralization at the newly identified tungsten target in the southeast portion of the Tungstonia Claim block. Similar projects hosted in Guilmette formation are Kinross’s Alligator Ridge and Bald Mountain deposits and Ridgeline Minerals Selena project as a few among many others in Nevada.

The Yellow Jacket Tungsten Mine operated between 1943-1944 producing material averaging 1.12% WO3 that was shipped directly from the Yellow Jacket Claims (2). Two mineralized zones are presently known; an eastern zone that extends for about 100 meters (m) along strike with an unknown thickness and a western zone that extends for at least 335m and opens into an approximate 1m x 10m deep shaft (Figure 3). Exploration activities ceased at Yellow Jacket as government purchase programs for tungsten were discontinued, although the War Minerals Report (2) noted ‘the property is a promising prospect’ and that additional development work is required.

Planned activities for 2026 include:

• Additional soil sampling over the newly staked ground at Tungstonia (including at Yellow Jacket), 

• Geophysics over the entire Tungstonia Claim block and, 

• Diamond core drilling of high potential targets.

About The Eagle Project

The Eagle Project presents a unique opportunity to delineate one of the largest and highest-grade Tungsten (‘W’) and Rubidium (‘Rb’) districts in the United States. The Project consists of the past-producing (1) high-grade Tungstonia, Yellow Jacket, and Rees/Antelope tungsten (W-Cu-Ag) mines. Operations at these mines were from 1915 to 1942 with intermittent small-scale production occurring until 1956. Tungsten production from these mines totaled 8,379 units at grades between 0.6%-0.9% WO3 (3).

About Copper

Copper is an essential industrial metal at the heart of the global energy transition and modern infrastructure. It plays a critical role in electrification, renewable energy systems, electric vehicles, data centers, and smart technologies. With global demand rising and new supply challenged by declining grades, complex permitting, and underinvestment, the copper market faces persistent deficits and growing geopolitical scrutiny. Recent U.S. policy announcements, including import tariffs and initiatives to secure domestic and allied supply chains, underscore copper’s strategic importance and the need for resilient, localized resource exploration, development, production and processing capacity.

About Copper Quest

The company’s land holdings comprise 7 projects that span over 45,000 hectares in great mining jurisdictions of Canada and the USA. Copper Quest is committed to building shareholder value through acquisitions, discovery-driven exploration, and responsible development of its North American critical mineral portfolio of assets. The Company’s common shares are principally listed on the Canadian Stock Exchange under the symbol ‘CQX’. For more information on Copper Quest, please visit the Company’s website at www.copper.quest.

Copper Quest has a 100% interest in the past-producing Alpine Gold Mine located approximately 20 kilometers northeast of the City of Nelson British Columbia, spanning 4,611.49 hectares with a 2018 National Instrument 43-101 Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects historical inferred resource of 268,000 tonnes, estimated using a cut-off grade of 5.0 g/t Au and an average grade of 16.52 g/t Au, that represents an inferred resource of 142,000 oz of gold (McCuaig & Giroux, 2018)*. Apart from the Alpine Mine itself the property hosts 4 other less explored significant vein systems including the past-producing King Solomon vein workings, the Black Prince and the Cold Blow veins system, and the Gold Crown vein system. *The Company has not yet completed sufficient work to verify the 2018 historic inferred resource results.
