Vancouver, British Columbia--(ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com - October 31, 2024) - Standard Uranium Ltd. (TSXV: STND) (OTCQB: STTDF) (FSE: 9SU0) ("Standard Uranium" or the "Company")is pleased to provide a summary of work programs on three of it's 100% owned uranium exploration projects currently under option and plans for targeted exploration strategies to continue advancing its uranium portfolio in the Athabasca Basin region, northern Saskatchewan towards discovery.The Company holds more than 233,000 acres of prime exploration real estate across the prolific Athabasca Basin region, which hosts the highest-grade uranium deposits on the planet. The Company boasts an attractive portfolio of uranium exploration projects currently available for option ranging from early-stage to drill-ready projects throughout the Athabasca region, providing turn-key opportunities with permits in hand, First Nations agreements signed, vendors secured, and highly prospective uranium targets. Standard Uranium has continued to deliver on its project generator model in 2024 through expansion of landholdings and advancement of early-stage projects through geophysical surveys to be executed this fall, providing excellent turn-key opportunities for potential joint venture partners. The Company is actively seeking new joint venture partners on these exciting uranium projects.Additionally, the Company successfully completed three joint venture earn-in partnerships on the Sun Dog, Canary, and Atlantic projects this year, totalling over $23.8M in work commitments over the next three years. The Company advanced all three projects by successfully operating and completing exploration drill programs on time and under budget. Standard Uranium brings a skilled team of in-house geoscientists and invaluable relationships with First Nations partners and vendors to the table in designing and executing option agreements.2024 Exploration Summary and ObjectivesProject Generator: Completed four definitive option agreements on four projects, securing exploration expenditures and non-dilutive cash-flow into the Company - Sun Dog, Atlantic, Canary, and Brown Lake projects.Aggressive Exploration: Successfully planned and operated three drill programs on Sun Dog, Atlantic, and Canary returning promising results of uranium mineralization and prospective geology, all of which were partner-funded and successfully operated by the Company.Additional Project Advancement: Initial exploration and geophysical programs on the early-stage Rocas and Corvo projects is planned for the fall, creating more opportunities for additional option partnerships.Expanded Landholdings: The Company added nearly 45,000 acres of prospective land to its portfolio in 2024 through low-cost staking, expanding the Ascent and Corvo projects significantly, and adding four new projects to its exploration pipeline in the Athabasca Basin region."We are pleased to share that we are continuing to advance additional uranium exploration projects through targeted geophysical survey work and new staking, which provide more opportunities for new joint venture partners looking to enter the Athabasca Basin. This part of our business represents an outstanding opportunity for companies that want to explore in the world's best uranium jurisdiction with our team at Standard Uranium," said Jon Bey, CEO & Chair of Standard Uranium.

Intersections of dravitic-clay associated with structural zones has been confirmed in drill holes ATL-24-002, ATL-24-004A, and ATL-24-005A.Verified Targets: Massive structural disruption confirmed in the sandstone column and multiple wide (>10 metres) brittle-reactivated graphitic shear zones confirm the main interpreted electromagnetic ("EM") corridor on the western claim block which was not reached by previous operators. The inaugural program results have confirmed the Company's exploration thesis on the Project, highlighting a uranium-fertile system with several kilometres of still untested strike length across the Project.Follow Up Targets & Next Steps: Atlantic holds significant upside for discovery along the untested portions of the E-W conductor system. Supplementary geophysical surveys over the central claim blocks are currently being planned and will provide further target areas for phase II and III drilling, along with the additional untested gravity low anomalies on the western block identified in 2022.Canary Project - Mamba Exploration Option (ASX: M24)Uranium Mineralization Confirmed: Analytical results from the spring 2024 drill program at the Project confirmed moderately anomalous uranium in drill holes CAN-24-001 and CAN-24-003 with Uranium:Thorium ("U:Th") ratios ≥3:1, indicating hydrothermal uranium input.Basement-Hosted Uranium: Multiple zones of elevated uranium linked to structural zones and/or proximal to lithological contacts, indicating a uranium-fertile system.Elevated Uranium Pathfinders: Several key uranium pathfinder elements are present in anomalous quantities in multiple drill holes within the crystalline basement, providing vectoring information for future programs; anomalous Boron is particularly common. Spectroscopy confirms presence of fracture-hosted dravitic-clay (13.4%) associated with semi-pelitic gneiss in drill hole CAN-24-001.Follow Up Targets & Next Steps: Canary holds significant upside for discovery along three different and significantly underexplored conductor systems. Supplementary geophysical surveys over all three corridors will provide further target areas for phase II and III drilling.Brown Lake - Mustang Energy Acquisition Agreement (CSE: MEC)Project Monetization: Acquired in 2023 via low-cost staking, Standard Uranium sold 90% of the 312-hectare Brown Lake project to Mustang Energy for 60,000 common shares in Mustang and retains a 10% free carried interest in the project, providing future discovery upside potential.Shallow drill targets: 300 counts per second ("cps") were intersected in seven of eight drill holes - Geochemical assays still pending.Prospectivity Model Confirmed: Elevated radioactivity and increased hydrothermal alteration at Wishbone are largely associated with stacked graphitic structural zones, indicating favorable corridors for fluid movement and uranium deposition across the Project akin to other basement-hosted Athabasca deposits.Discovery of Radioactivity: Occurrences of strong to intense radioactivity in outcropping graphitic basement rocks were identified at surface while prospecting at the Wishbone target area:Approximately five kilometres of strike length along a regional scale anticline, defined by strong VTEM conductors with associated radioactivity along each fold limb.Graphitic pelites have been mapped along both fold limbs, hosting strong radioactivity up to 22,300 cps (RS-125 handheld scintillometer).Mineralized cross-cutting faults have been mapped in the overlying rocks which intersect the uranium-bearing graphitic pelite unit.Historical outcrop sampling at the northwestern graphitic pelite exposure returned assay results of 0.32% U3O8 and 0.30% Cu (SMDI #2095).Unrealized Potential: The targets tested during the summer 2024 program represent only a small fraction of the dozens on the ground and the Company is working with its option partners to prioritize follow ups for additional geophysics and drill programs to further test these promising areas.Davidson River Project - Flagship ProjectIn 2023, the Company expanded its flagship Davidson River project in the southwest corner of the Basin to cover more than 37,700 hectares. Standard Uranium plans to follow up on prospective drilling results from 2022 and test brand new high-priority targets akin to the neighboring JR Zone discovery within the new southeast claim blocks.The summer 2022 program revealed the best intersections of prospective alteration and structure to date along the Bronco and Thunderbird trends, including wide graphitic structural zones on Bronco and oxidized alteration on Thunderbird, in addition to elevated radioactivity and dravite alteration.Planned 2025 drilling will follow up on the most prospective basement structures and alteration zones intersected to date and begin testing new target areas within recently staked claim blocks.Data-driven machine learning techniques will contribute to drill targeting at Davidson River through anomaly detection and mapping of EM data, in addition to anomaly matching based on the footprints of known world-class uranium deposits in the area including the Arrow and Triple-R deposits. The machine learning techniques will also be applied to the Company's internal drilling and geochemical databases.Several kilometres of graphitic conductors remain to be tested at Davidson River, with Davidson River still containing massive blue-sky potential for high-grade discovery akin to the Arrow Deposit on the neighbouring Rook I project owned and operated by NexGen Energy Ltd.Harrison Project - Available for OptionSize & Location: Two mineral claims totalling 1,750 ha, located 22 km SSE of the Shea Creek uranium deposits and approximately 30 km SE of the past producing Cluff Lake uranium mine.Geophysical/Geological Signatures: Electromagnetic ("EM") surveys conducted in 2006-2007 outlined multiple EM zones across the project. Harrison covers approximately 6.8 km of a NW-SE conductor trends coincident with a prominent magnetic low. The trend is crosscut by several interpreted fault zones, including 4.9 km of the major Harrison fault.Prospectivity Model: The project has never been drilled and provides the Company with additional exploration exposure in the southwest Athabasca uranium district. The Company believes the newly acquired Harrison project is prospective for the discovery of high-grade* unconformity-related uranium mineralization.Stock Option and RSU GrantsThe Company also announces that, pursuant to its Omnibus Incentive Plan, it has granted stock options (the "Options") to certain directors, management, and consultants of the Company to purchase an aggregate of 367,500 common shares of the Company at the price of $0.10 per common share until October 31, 2029.

The Company holds interest in over 233,455 acres (94,476 hectares) in the world-class Athabasca Basin in Saskatchewan, Canada. Since its establishment, Standard Uranium has focused on the identification, acquisition, and exploration of Athabasca-style uranium targets with a view to discovery and future development.Standard Uranium has successfully completed three joint venture earn in partnerships on their Sun Dog, Canary, and Atlantic projects totaling over $23.8M in work commitments over the next three years from 2024-2027.Standard Uranium's Sun Dog project, in the northwest part of the Athabasca Basin, Saskatchewan, is comprised of nine mineral claims over 19,603 hectares. The Sun Dog project is highly prospective for basement and unconformity hosted uranium deposits yet remains largely untested by sufficient drilling despite its location proximal to uranium discoveries in the area.Standard Uranium's Davidson River Project, in the southwest part of the Athabasca Basin, Saskatchewan, comprises ten mineral claims over 30,737 hectares. Davidson River is highly prospective for basement-hosted uranium deposits due to its location along trend from recent high-grade uranium discoveries. However, owing to the large project size with multiple targets, it remains broadly under-tested by drilling. Recent intersections of wide, structurally deformed and strongly altered shear zones provide significant confidence in the exploration model and future success is expected.Standard Uranium's eastern Athabasca projects comprise over 42,384 hectares of prospective land holdings. The eastern basin projects are highly prospective for unconformity related and/or basement hosted uranium deposits based on historical uranium occurrences, recently identified geophysical anomalies, and location along trend from several high-grade uranium discoveries.For further information contact:Jon Bey, Chief Executive Officer, and ChairmanSuite 918, 1030 West Georgia StreetVancouver, British Columbia, V6E 2Y3Tel: 1 (306) 850-6699E-mail: info@standarduranium.caCautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking StatementsThis news release contains "forward-looking statements" or "forward-looking information" (collectively, "forward-looking statements") within the meaning of applicable securities legislation.
