LAURION MINERAL EXPLORATION INC.

LAURION Mineral Exploration Inc. (TSX-V: LME) is advancing the 100%-owned, 57 km² Ishkōday Gold and Polymetallic Project — host to a dual mineral system of orogenic quartz-vein gold and polymetallic (Au-Ag-Zn-Cu) mineralization — in Ontario's historic Beardmore-Geraldton Greenstone Belt, a district that has produced 4.1 million ounces of gold from 19 mines, 60 km from Equinox's 5.7 Moz Greenstone Mine. The Ishkōday hosts two past-producing shafts, including Sturgeon River Mine, which ceased operations in 1942 by wartime order with active high-grade mining still underway at closure. LAURION has completed over 100,000 metres of drilling across a 6 km x2.5 km mineralized corridor, and has submitted both a Recovery of Minerals Permit and a shaft-dewatering water permit — positioning both the surface stockpile and the historically documented underground material for near-term evaluation and monetization.

Management Profile:
Cynthia Le Sueur-Aquin, President & Chief Executive Officer
With over 40 years in the mining industry — underground, in mine development, and in the boardroom — Cynthia Le Sueur-Aquin has built LAURION around a lean core team backed by best-in-class technical partners, so capital goes into the ground rather than overhead. She is LAURION's largest individual shareholder, and her career spans the full mining lifecycle — exploration through production, micro-cap juniors through blue-chip seniors — across multiple market cycles, informing her focus on unlocking Ishkōday's near-term monetization pathways alongside its exploration upside.

Board & Advisory:
John Covello, Director — 25+ years raising strategic capital across industries via a global finance network. Michael Burmi, Director — 25 years building and scaling high-end technology manufacturing businesses. Vikram Jayaraman, Technical Advisory Board — SVP, DRA Global, evaluating stockpile processing and Sturgeon River shaft access.
Sean Ghosal, Strategic Advisor — Streaming & Royalties, Sprott, ex-Stifel mining equity research.

What are your key goals for the next 3 months?:
Advance Ministry review of the submitted Recovery of Minerals Permit and PTTW dewatering applications; finalize Phase 2 drill planning at A-Zone; evaluate near-term monetization pathways for the surface stockpile and historically documented underground material.

What are your key goals for the next 6 months?:
Mobilize Phase 2 diamond drilling at A-Zone (targeted March 2027); advance permitting to dewater the historic, flooded Sturgeon River shaft, delivering the first safe underground access to historic high-grade levels in over 80 years.

What are your key goals for the next 12 months?:
Deliver Phase 2 drill results, advance toward a maiden NI 43-101 mineral resource estimate, and progress stockpile and underground monetization evaluation following permit approval.

What do you think makes your company such a compelling investment?:
LAURION isn't starting a discovery story from zero — we're finishing one. The Company's 100%-owned Ishkōday Project hosts a dual mineral system — orogenic quartz-vein gold and polymetallic (Au-Ag-Zn-Cu) mineralization — across a 6 km corridor where LAURION has drilled over 100,000 metres. On the same property, the historic Sturgeon River Mine was closed in 1942 by wartime order while active high-grade mining was still underway — not by geology. Independent metallurgical testwork confirms the historically documented stockpile and underground material is non-refractory, recovering up to 98.5% of contained gold through simple gravity-cyanidation processing. Having already submitted its Recovery of Minerals Permit and a shaft-dewatering water permit, LAURION is positioned for early monetization of this material well ahead of a typical exploration-stage timeline — led by a CEO with 40 years of full-cycle mining experience who is also the Company's largest individual shareholder.

Risks, Challenges & Investment Case

What do you see as key risks/challenges facing your company, and how are you overcoming these?:

Like most exploration-stage juniors, access to capital in a challenging junior financing market is our primary external risk. We manage this through a disciplined, technically-driven pace of spending and by advancing lower-capital, faster-to-value pathways — the surface stockpile and historic shaft dewatering — alongside the primary A-Zone drill program.

What are the top 3 key investor takeaways?:

• 100%-owned Ishkōday Project hosts two mineral systems — orogenic gold and polymetallic (Au-Ag-Zn-Cu) — across a 6 km corridor with 100,000+ metres already drilled
• A historic mine closed by wartime order while active high-grade mining was underway, not by geology, with permits already submitted to reopen access
• Proven, simple metallurgy (up to 98.5% gold recovery) positions the stockpile and underground material for early monetization alongside primary exploration upside
