Uraniumx Discovery Corp. Appoints Vincent Martin as Strategic Advisor

VANCOUVER, January 14, 2026 - UraniumX Discovery Corp. (CSE: STMN) ("UraniumX" or the "Company") is pleased to announce the appointment of Mr. Vincent Martin as Strategic Advisor to the Company.

Mr. Martin brings exceptional depth of experience spanning 37 years in uranium exploration, development, and operations with the Orano/Areva group, one of the world's leading uranium producers. He served as CEO of Orano Canada Inc. for 12 years, during which he oversaw operations at some of the world's most significant uranium assets in northern Saskatchewan, including the McClean Lake mill, Cigar Lake mine, McArthur River mine, and the Cluff Lake site, encompassing the full uranium mining cycle from exploration through production to mine closure and remediation. His tenure also saw the successful negotiation and signing of cooperation agreements with First Nations communities, strengthening Orano's collaborative relationships in the Athabasca Basin. Under his leadership, Orano Canada maintained one of the largest exploration programs in the region, with over 50 active exploration projects across the Athabasca Basin.

"We are thrilled to welcome Vincent to our advisory team," said Kirby Renton, COO of UraniumX Discovery Corp. "His unparalleled knowledge of the Athabasca Basin, combined with his operational expertise at world-class uranium deposits and his deep understanding of community engagement, will be invaluable as we advance our exploration programs. He becomes an integral part of the amazing team we have assembled at UraniumX, and his strategic guidance will help us make informed decisions as we work toward our goal of uranium discovery in one of the world's premier uranium districts."

Mr. Martin's career spans the full spectrum of uranium operations across multiple continents. After beginning his career in France, where he spent 11 years with Areva, he transitioned to Canada where he led exploration, development, production, and remediation initiatives throughout the Athabasca Basin. His intimate understanding of the geological, technical, regulatory, and operational aspects of uranium deposits combined with his expertise in stakeholder engagement and Indigenous partnerships, positions him as an exceptional resource for UraniumX Discovery Corp. as the Company advances its three strategic properties.

"The Athabasca Basin continues to be one of the most prospective uranium regions in the world," said Vincent Martin. "UraniumX Discovery Corp. has assembled a compelling portfolio of properties with strong geological potential. I look forward to working with Kirby and the team as they execute their exploration strategy and work toward making new discoveries in this world-class district."

Mr. Martin is a graduate of the prestigious École Nationale Supérieure des Mines de Paris and has been recognized throughout his career as a leader in the global uranium industry. His appointment strengthens UraniumX's technical and strategic capabilities as the Company prepares for its Murphy Lake drilling program scheduled for Q2 2026.

About UraniumX

UraniumX Discovery Corp. is a Canadian-based junior mineral exploration company, singularly focused on advancing uranium discovery in Canada's Saskatchewan Athabasca Basin. Its core assets sit on the eastern margin of the Athabasca Basin, a premier global district known for hosting 10 of the world's top 15 highest-grade uranium deposits.

Murphy Lake Uranium Property is the Company's flagship, where UraniumX is earning up to 70% through an option with F4 Uranium. Adjacent to the world-class Wollaston Domain, the property benefits from conductors, strong alteration, and proven 2022 drilling that intercepted anomalous radioactivity near the Basin's unconformity.

The Company also owns 100% of the Zoo Bay Uranium Project (15 claims; 19,850 ha), positioned near structural and magnetic features historically linked to uranium-thorium occurrences and conductivity corridors near Newnham Lake and neighbouring claims.

UraniumX further holds a 100% interest in the NeoCore Uranium Property (6 claims; 13,012 ha), located 65 km southeast of McArthur River Mine, within a stable, high-grade mining district supported by mills, power, all-season roads, and established exploration infrastructure.

Exploration programs incorporate geophysics, drilling, and a research collaboration with University of Saskatchewan leveraging quartz-degradation analytics to sharpen target selection.
