Silver47 Exploration Invited to Join DARPA-Sponsored Critical Minerals Forum

Vancouver, March 26, 2026 - Silver47 Exploration Corp. (TSXV: AGA) (OTCQX: AAGAF) ("Silver47" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has joined the Critical Minerals Forum ("CMF"), a coalition of miners, processors, investors, and end-users committed to building resilient and diversified supply chains.

With seed funding from U.S. Department of War's Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA), the CMF includes over 50 companies across the critical minerals value chain-spanning the battery, semiconductor, defense, and aerospace industries.

Critical minerals are essential for advanced defense technologies such as jet engines and radar systems, as well as large-capacity batteries for electric vehicles and renewable energy storage. However, supply chains for many of these minerals are highly concentrated, predominantly under the control of monopolist actors in a non-market economy. This concentration enables manipulation of global markets, price distortion, and geopolitical disruption. One of the most significant hurdles to increasing investment is the unusually high uncertainty surrounding production costs and mineral prices. Improving cost, price, supply, and demand transparency is therefore fundamental to encouraging new investment.

Galen McNamara, CEO of Silver47, stated: "We are proud to join this important coalition at a time when collaboration across the full value chain is critical. The CMF's data-driven approach, partnership with DARPA's Open Price Exploration for National Security (OPEN) Initiative, and role as a trusted clearinghouse align directly with our commitment to responsible development and long-term supply chain security. Through this membership, Silver47 looks forward to contributing to industry-wide initiatives that de-risk investment, foster partnerships, and accelerate the delivery of new critical minerals capacity."

The CMF serves as a neutral convener that develops a roadmap of future minerals needs through consultations with the U.S. government and multinational manufacturers, complemented by proprietary geographic modeling of supply and demand. It has been recognized by U.S. government agencies as a key adviser on essential mineral projects. The CMF also supports investment and blended financing for minerals projects while creating verifiable benefits for members through capital-raising support, partnership formation, offtake agreements, and coordinated industry engagement with the U.S. government.
