<p>安大略省多伦多 --（Newsfile Corp. -2026 年 1 月 12 日）- 加拿大铬公司（CSE: CACR.A），前身为 KWG 资源公司（&#34; <strong>CCC&#34;</strong> 或 &#34; <strong>公司</strong>&#34;），欣然宣布，在完成 2025 年 12 月的第一阶段流通融资后（详见公司 2025 年 12 月 31 日发布的新闻稿第 379 号），公司正在审查其地质及其他信息，以确定如何最佳利用该融资的收益用于其铬矿勘探项目的勘探支出，因为公司预计将在 2026 年进行第二阶段流通融资。这些项目包括位于火环地区的铬矿储量，距离安大略省纳基纳约 280 公里，位于安大略省北部的詹姆斯湾低地，包括覆盖四个未专利矿权的 1,024 公顷土地，其中包含黑马铬矿储量（&#34;Koper Lake 项目&#34;），以及覆盖 80 个未专利矿权的 1,033.6 公顷土地（&#34;Hornby 物业&#34;），与大爸爸项目的南部边界相邻。公司已从矿业部获得并目前持有黑马铬矿储量进一步钻探的勘探许可证 PR-23-000242。该许可证有效期为 3 年，当前到期日期为 2026 年 9 月 15 日。</p>
<p>公司还提供了关于矿产勘探权的最新信息，这些权利最初由公司子公司加拿大铬公司（&#34;Canada Chrome&#34;）在 2009 年和 2010 年申请，并且位于公司当时确定的路线之下，该路线随后被其他人认可为连接纳基纳和火环（&#34;Corridor Claims&#34;）之间的最佳运输和公用事业走廊——最近也被提议作为拟议的北方公路连接、马滕瀑布社区通道和韦贝奎供应路的各种替代路线。根据公司在 2025 年 8 月底的公告（见公司 2025 年 8 月 28 日发布的新闻稿第 386 号），公司指出走廊权利面临被没收的风险，加拿大铬公司随后将这些走廊权利置于信托中，并在 2025 年 9 月与 Gitchiziibii 公司签署了信托契约，作为原始受托人（&#34;Indigenous Trustee&#34;），以持有和维护这些走廊权利，并转让给一个将作为土著企业设立的实体（&#34;Proposed Indigenous Enterprise&#34;），以惠及马塔瓦第一民族的成员。公司的提议是让拟议的土著企业参与沿走廊权利路线的运输和电气化服务的开发和运营，建立一个公用事业走廊，为火环和该地区的第一民族社区提供运输和电气化服务。走廊权利转让给拟议的土著企业需满足满意的安排，以便从项目中回收加拿大铬公司的成本，并在实施这些条款时将位于公用事业走廊沿线的 32 个总许可申请也转让给拟议的土著企业。在此期间，文件规定受托人及任何后续持有人将确保加拿大铬公司知晓任何关于走廊权利表面使用权的申请，以便加拿大铬公司和公司能够评估是否对任何此类申请作出回应。此外，文件规定加拿大铬公司和公司在使用这些拟议的集料坑和采石场位置的集料权利以及使用运输走廊设施方面将享有特殊地位。加拿大铬公司曾试图将走廊权利转让给土著受托人，但被告知，由于走廊权利的到期日期已过，且关于将走廊权利 “暂时保留，特殊情况适用” 的请求尚未确定，因此无法记录转让。随后，公司及其子公司加拿大铬公司被告知，矿业部官员不愿意批准加拿大铬公司根据《矿业法》第 67 条的请求，排除勘探工作的时间，这一拒绝将导致其走廊权利被没收。因此，加拿大铬公司根据《矿业法》第 73.1 条和第 185 条向部长提出了上诉请求，请求部长对走廊权利的任何没收给予救济，并将走廊权利 “暂时保留，特殊情况适用”，以使加拿大铬公司、土著受托人及马塔瓦第一民族的其他相关代表能够完成拟议的土著企业的创建和组织，以便沿公用事业走廊开发和运营运输和电气化服务，为火环和该地区的第一民族社区提供运输和电气化服务。在向部长提交上诉请求后，公司和加拿大铬公司与矿业部官员进行了沟通，并提交了关于加拿大铬公司请求和上诉的补充材料。随后，加拿大铬公司在 2025 年 12 月底被告知，省级矿业记录员正在进行没收程序，并将记录所有走廊权利的没收。此后，矿业部官员进一步告知，加拿大铬公司，尽管正在记录没收，但加拿大铬公司向部长提出的撤销这些没收的上诉仍在考虑中，部长或其代表尚未做出任何决定，如果没收被撤销，部长或其代表可以恢复走廊权利。此外，矿业部官员告知加拿大铬公司和公司，已发出命令将走廊权利区域从申请中撤回，因此在加拿大铬公司请求解除没收的上诉被考虑期间，该区域不面临被第三方申请的风险。公司正在考虑，除了等待部长对加拿大铬公司上诉的考虑外，公司及其子公司是否应向安大略土地法庭上诉省级矿业记录员记录走廊权利没收的决定。</p>
<p>“我们很高兴了解到，火环地区铬矿资源作为不锈钢制造的安全供应来源的潜力在美国得到了充分理解，” 公司总裁梅根·麦克尔维恩（Megan McElwain）表示。“为了开发这一潜力，社区通道规划者必须考虑到矿业项目的优先需求。为了让买卖双方共同控制这一点，铁路必须成为计划的一部分，以便铬矿开发能够享有其所有者因承担风险而获得的物理垄断保护。中国在该地区的利益随后可以得到解决，这一点对于那些负责深入思考关键矿物及其在全球竞争力和国家安全中作用的人来说是显而易见的。在这种情况下，威胁到的通行权索赔不能被忽视，正如我们向福特省长所表示的那样。”</p>

<p>加拿大铬业公司（CCC）对其在火环地区的勘探计划以及将其子公司的走廊矿权转移至一个土著企业信托的努力进行了更新。在成功完成融资后，CCC 正在审查勘探支出的地质数据。该公司持有黑马铬矿的勘探许可证，并正在努力确保走廊矿权以惠及马塔瓦第一民族。然而，由于过期日期和省政府拒绝时间豁免请求，转让这些矿权的过程中出现了挑战</p>

<p>Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - January 12, 2026) - The Canadian Chrome Company Inc.  (CSE: CACR.A), formerly known as KWG Resources Inc. (&#34; <strong>CCC&#34;</strong> or the &#34; <strong>Company</strong>&#34;) is pleased to announce that, following completion of its first-tranche flow-through financing in December 2025 (see the Company's news release No. 379 dated December 31, 2025), the Company is reviewing its geological and other information to determine the best use of the proceeds of that financing for exploration expenditures on its chromite exploration properties as the Company anticipates second-tranche flow-through financings in 2026. Those properties include chromite deposits located in the Ring of Fire, approximately 280 km north of Nakina, Ontario, in the James Bay Lowlands of Northern Ontario, including 1,024 hectares covered by four unpatented mining claims which contain the Black Horse chromite deposit (the &#34;Koper Lake Project&#34;) and 1,033.6 hectares covered by 80 unpatented mining claims (the &#34;Hornby Property&#34;) adjoining the southerly boundary of the Big Daddy Project, The Company has received from the Ministry of Mining and currently holds Exploration Permit PR-23-000242 for the conduct of further drilling at the Black Horse chromite deposit in the Koper Lake Project. The permit has a term of 3 years and a present expiration date of September 15, 2026.</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>安大略省多伦多 --（Newsfile Corp. -2026 年 1 月 12 日）- 加拿大铬公司（CSE: CACR.A），前身为 KWG 资源公司（&#34; <strong>CCC&#34;</strong> 或 &#34; <strong>公司</strong>&#34;），欣然宣布，在完成 2025 年 12 月的第一阶段流通融资后（详见公司 2025 年 12 月 31 日发布的新闻稿第 379 号），公司正在审查其地质及其他信息，以确定如何最佳利用该融资的收益用于其铬矿勘探项目的勘探支出，因为公司预计将在 2026 年进行第二阶段流通融资。这些项目包括位于火环地区的铬矿储量，距离安大略省纳基纳约 280 公里，位于安大略省北部的詹姆斯湾低地，包括覆盖四个未专利矿权的 1,024 公顷土地，其中包含黑马铬矿储量（&#34;Koper Lake 项目&#34;），以及覆盖 80 个未专利矿权的 1,033.6 公顷土地（&#34;Hornby 物业&#34;），与大爸爸项目的南部边界相邻。公司已从矿业部获得并目前持有黑马铬矿储量进一步钻探的勘探许可证 PR-23-000242。该许可证有效期为 3 年，当前到期日期为 2026 年 9 月 15 日。</p>
</div><p>The Company also provides an update on the mineral exploration claims which were originally staked by the Company's subsidiary, Canada Chrome Corporation (&#34;Canada Chrome&#34;), in 2009 and 2010 and underlie the route which the Company had identified at that time and has been subsequently recognized by others as the best route for a transportation and utility corridor between Nakina and the Ring of Fire (the &#34;Corridor Claims&#34;) - along what has recently also been proposed as various alternative routing lineaments for the proposed Northern Road Link, the Marten Falls Community Access Road and the Webequie Supply Road. Following the Company's announcement in late August 2025 (see the Company's news release No. 386 dated August 28, 2025) in which it noted that the Corridor Claims were at risk of being forfeited, Canada Chrome proceeded with placing those Corridor Claims in a trust and then, in September, 2025, signed a trust deed with The Gitchiziibii Company Inc. as the original trustee (the &#34;Indigenous Trustee&#34;) for it to hold and maintain those Corridor Claims for transfer to an entity to be set up as an indigenous enterprise (the &#34;Proposed Indigenous Enterprise&#34;) for the benefit of members of the Matawa First Nations. The Company's proposal was for the Proposed Indigenous Enterprise to engage in the development and operation of transportation and electrification services along the route of the Corridor Claims establishing a utility corridor to provide transportation and electrification services to the Ring of Fire and to the First Nation communities of the area. The transfer of the Corridor Claims to the Proposed Indigenous Enterprise was subject to satisfactory arrangements being made for Canada Chrome's costs to be recovered out of the project and for Canada Chrome's 32 aggregate permit applications located at various places along the route of the utility corridor also to be transferred to the Proposed Indigenous Enterprise on implementation of those terms. In the interim, the documentation provided that the trustee and any subsequent holder would ensure that Canada Chrome was made aware of any applications for access rights over the surface of the Corridor Claims so that Canada Chrome and the Company could assess whether to respond to any such application. As well, the documentation provided that Canada Chrome and the Company would be afforded special status regarding the right to use aggregate from those proposed aggregate pit and quarry locations and the use of the transportation corridor facilities. Canada Chrome has attempted to transfer the Corridor Claims to the Indigenous Trustee, but was advised that, since the expiry dates of the Corridor Claims had passed and the requests that the Corridor Claims be placed &#34;on hold, special circumstances apply&#34; had not been determined, the transfers could not be recorded. The Company and its subsidiary, Canada Chrome, were subsequently advised that Ministry officials were not willing to grant Canada Chrome's requests for exclusions of time for exploration work under s.67 of the Mining Act, which refusal would result in the forfeiture of its Corridor Claims. As a result, Canada Chrome filed a request to appeal to the Minister under s.73.1 and s.185 of the Mining Act requesting the Minister to grant relief from any forfeitures of Corridor Claims and to place the Corridor Claims &#34;on hold - special circumstances apply&#34; to enable Canada Chrome, the Indigenous Trustee and the other applicable representatives of the Mattawa First Nations to complete the creation and organization of the Proposed Indigenous Enterprise for the development and operation of transportation and electrification services along the route of the utility corridor providing transportation and electrification services to the Ring of Fire and to the First Nation communities of the area. Following filing of those requests to appeal to the Minister, the Company and Canada Chrome had communications with Ministry officials and filed supplementary materials regarding Canada Chrome's requests and appeals. Canada Chrome was then advised at the end of December, 2025, that forfeitures were being proceeded with by the Provincial Mining Recorder and would be recorded for all of the Corridor Claims along the utility corridor. That advice was followed with further advice from Ministry officials that, although the forfeitures were being recorded, the appeals by Canada Chrome to the Minister for annulment of those forfeitures remained under consideration, no decision had yet been made by the Minister or any of the Minister's delegates and, if the forfeitures are annulled, the Minister or the Minister's delegate could reinstate the Corridor Claims. As well, Ministry officials advised Canada Chrome and the Company that an order had been issued to withdraw the area of the Corridor Claims from staking and, accordingly, that the area of the Corridor Claims was not at risk of being claim-staked by third parties while Canada Chrome's appeals for relief from forfeiture were being considered. The Company is considering whether, in addition to waiting for the Minister's consideration of Canada Chrome's appeals, the Company and its subsidiary should appeal to the Ontario Land Tribunal the Provincial Mining Recorder's decision to record forfeitures of the Corridor Claims.</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>公司还提供了关于矿产勘探权的最新信息，这些权利最初由公司子公司加拿大铬公司（&#34;Canada Chrome&#34;）在 2009 年和 2010 年申请，并且位于公司当时确定的路线之下，该路线随后被其他人认可为连接纳基纳和火环（&#34;Corridor Claims&#34;）之间的最佳运输和公用事业走廊——最近也被提议作为拟议的北方公路连接、马滕瀑布社区通道和韦贝奎供应路的各种替代路线。根据公司在 2025 年 8 月底的公告（见公司 2025 年 8 月 28 日发布的新闻稿第 386 号），公司指出走廊权利面临被没收的风险，加拿大铬公司随后将这些走廊权利置于信托中，并在 2025 年 9 月与 Gitchiziibii 公司签署了信托契约，作为原始受托人（&#34;Indigenous Trustee&#34;），以持有和维护这些走廊权利，并转让给一个将作为土著企业设立的实体（&#34;Proposed Indigenous Enterprise&#34;），以惠及马塔瓦第一民族的成员。公司的提议是让拟议的土著企业参与沿走廊权利路线的运输和电气化服务的开发和运营，建立一个公用事业走廊，为火环和该地区的第一民族社区提供运输和电气化服务。走廊权利转让给拟议的土著企业需满足满意的安排，以便从项目中回收加拿大铬公司的成本，并在实施这些条款时将位于公用事业走廊沿线的 32 个总许可申请也转让给拟议的土著企业。在此期间，文件规定受托人及任何后续持有人将确保加拿大铬公司知晓任何关于走廊权利表面使用权的申请，以便加拿大铬公司和公司能够评估是否对任何此类申请作出回应。此外，文件规定加拿大铬公司和公司在使用这些拟议的集料坑和采石场位置的集料权利以及使用运输走廊设施方面将享有特殊地位。加拿大铬公司曾试图将走廊权利转让给土著受托人，但被告知，由于走廊权利的到期日期已过，且关于将走廊权利 “暂时保留，特殊情况适用” 的请求尚未确定，因此无法记录转让。随后，公司及其子公司加拿大铬公司被告知，矿业部官员不愿意批准加拿大铬公司根据《矿业法》第 67 条的请求，排除勘探工作的时间，这一拒绝将导致其走廊权利被没收。因此，加拿大铬公司根据《矿业法》第 73.1 条和第 185 条向部长提出了上诉请求，请求部长对走廊权利的任何没收给予救济，并将走廊权利 “暂时保留，特殊情况适用”，以使加拿大铬公司、土著受托人及马塔瓦第一民族的其他相关代表能够完成拟议的土著企业的创建和组织，以便沿公用事业走廊开发和运营运输和电气化服务，为火环和该地区的第一民族社区提供运输和电气化服务。在向部长提交上诉请求后，公司和加拿大铬公司与矿业部官员进行了沟通，并提交了关于加拿大铬公司请求和上诉的补充材料。随后，加拿大铬公司在 2025 年 12 月底被告知，省级矿业记录员正在进行没收程序，并将记录所有走廊权利的没收。此后，矿业部官员进一步告知，加拿大铬公司，尽管正在记录没收，但加拿大铬公司向部长提出的撤销这些没收的上诉仍在考虑中，部长或其代表尚未做出任何决定，如果没收被撤销，部长或其代表可以恢复走廊权利。此外，矿业部官员告知加拿大铬公司和公司，已发出命令将走廊权利区域从申请中撤回，因此在加拿大铬公司请求解除没收的上诉被考虑期间，该区域不面临被第三方申请的风险。公司正在考虑，除了等待部长对加拿大铬公司上诉的考虑外，公司及其子公司是否应向安大略土地法庭上诉省级矿业记录员记录走廊权利没收的决定。</p>
</div><p>&#34;We have been pleased to learn that the potential of the Ring of Fire's chrome endowment as a secure source of supply for stainless steelmaking is well understood in the USA,&#34; said Company President Megan McElwain. &#34;It is important to the development of that potential that the community access road planners take account of the mining project's priority requirements. For the buyer and seller to control that together, the railroad must be part of the plan so that the chrome development can have the protections of the physical monopoly its owners have won for the risks that they took. China's interests in the area can then be subsequently addressed, as is well understood by those responsible for thinking critically about critical minerals and their role in global competitiveness and national security. The threatened forfeiture of the right-of-way claims cannot be left unaddressed in the circumstances, as we have represented to Premier Ford.&#34;</p>
