Origen Resources Advances Picos Survey and Moves Ahead With 70% Campo de Cima Acquisition

Highlights

• Origen Resources is pursuing two rare-earth systems in northeastern Brazil: phosphate-hosted Picos and ionic-clay target Campo de Cima
• The Campo de Cima acquisition covers a large area across Piauí and Bahia but is supported by only 33 widely spaced soil samples with a maximum of 282 ppm TREO+Y
• No compliant resource, drill-defined tonnage, metallurgical recoveries, or economic study exists for either project
• At Picos, 328 soil samples have been completed with airborne radiometrics underway to define drill targets
• Key value inflection points are drilling continuity and metallurgical proof that magnet REEs like NdPr, Dy, and Tb can be economically recovered
