Generation Uranium Signs new agreement on the Yath Extension project.
Vancouver, January 13, 2026 - Generation Uranium Inc. (TSXV: GEN, OTCQB: GENRF, FRA: W85) ("Generation" or the "Company") announces it has signed a new agreement to acquire the Yath Extension Property, a strategic expansion that enhances the Company's footprint in the Angilak Uranium District of Nunavut. On December 15, 2025, Generation Uranium entered into a definitive purchase agreement with arm's-length vendors to acquire 100% ownership of the Yath Extension property. The acquisition adds 4,123.94 hectares across five claims, increasing the total size of the Yath Project to approximately 18,214.87 hectares. This agreement reduces share payments by 6 million shares and break share payments into two tranches over 2 years (full agreement terms described below).
Geological Highlights
The Yath Extension property is underlain by Archean basement rocks of the Kaminak Group, known to host uranium-copper mineralization within quartz-vein stockworks and brecciated zones. Historical mapping and sampling confirm the presence of narrow, high-grade mineralized shears and fractures, with sharp boundaries of mineralization.

Strategic Significance
This acquisition strengthens Generation's control over key structural corridors extending across the Yath Basin and aligns with the Company's objective to advance high-priority exploration targets within a proven uranium district.
Mihcael Collins, CEO of Generation Uranium commented: "The acquisition of these claims expands on our core holdings in the Yathkyed Basin and targeted Kaminak Group rocks in the basin margin. Meaningfully expands our Yath Project and our strategic position within Nunavut's uranium belt. The additional high-value targets complement our existing portfolio and reinforce our focus on systematic exploration and discovery."
