Vancouver, August 14, 2025 - Homerun Resources Inc. (TSXV: HMR) (OTCQB: HMRFF) ("Homerun" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that the Company has completed the transaction for the acquisition of the exploitation rights from Guidoni Brasil S.A. ("Guidoni), for areas granted under a lease agreement with Companhia Bahiana de Pesquisa Mineral (CBPM) in the municipality of Belmonte, Bahia, Brazil. All tenements of the Guidoni project are fully permitted for immediate extraction / mining and at a lower royalty rate than the Company's previous silica sand supply contracts in the Santa Maria Eterna District.

Further to the News Release dated February 12^th, 2025, announcing the total and irrevocable assignment of all rights and responsibilities in favor of Homerun, of the rights to exploit the mining tenements 871.960/1992, 870.462/1999, 870.463/1999 and 873.387/2007, the Company has executed a Term of Assignment with Guidoni, with the Consent of CBPM, for the process number 036.5410.2020.0001386-11, assigning the above mineral rights, subject of bid number 004/2020, along with all its rights and obligations, to Homerun. Under the Guidoni Lease Terms with CBPM, the Company will pay CBPM an extraction royalty of R$26 (US$4.50) per tonne of extracted silica sand.

Brian Leeners, CEO of Homerun stated, "In our original strategic plan two years ago, we stated that we would work methodically to consolidate control over the unique Santa Maria Eterna silica sand deposits in the Belmonte Silica District, and we continue to execute on that mandate. This process requires major effort and considerable patience while building beneficial relationships and favourable terms and I want to thank our team for their relentless efforts in this regard. We also want to thank our partners in the District, in particular CBPM, the State-owned resource company of the Government of Bahia, Brazil. These efforts continue and between ownership via CBPM leases and an ongoing partnership with a premier silica production company in Brazil, we are now in control of a significant majority of the silica sand in the District. Dialogue and negotiations continue with historic owners and transitional owners based on long-term legal issues over the portion of the District not under CBPM concessions. This resource base, combined with our vertically integrated approach from extraction through solar glass production, positions us uniquely as both the primary demand driver and supply controller for this unique material. With centuries of supply at our disposal, we're not just participating in Brazil's renewable energy transformation, we're enabling it while building a defensible competitive moat that extends well beyond any single market cycle."

The total required payments under the Agreement are R$2,500,000 reais, to be advanced, as follows:

• R$500,000 payable against the execution of the definitive agreement for the transfer of the Guidoni rights and obligations (PAID).

• R$2,000,000, paid over four installments, maturing, one by one, every 6 months, from the date of payment of the first installment, adjusted by the foreign exchange rate variation from the reference rate of 1 US$ = R$ 4.9827 in relation to the actual closing exchange rate of the day before the maturing of each payment. The first of these four installments was due and paid on August 12th, 2025.
