Blue Moon Metals Inc. (TSX-V: MOON) (OTCQX: BMOOF), is pleased to announce that it has entered into a Memorandum of Understanding dated October 10, 2025 with Goods LG LLC to acquire the Springer Mine, Mill and all associated infrastructure required for mineral processing in Pershing County, Nevada. Completion of the Transaction is subject to the satisfaction of a number of conditions precedent including the negotiation of a definitive agreement, the extension of certain water rights used by the Mill, and other customary conditions for transactions of this nature. In exchange for exclusivity on the Property, Blue Moon has provided a US$500,000 non-refundable cash payment to the Seller.
The Springer Mill historically processed tungsten, and has an Ammonium Paratungstate circuit including autoclave and related reagent systems. The mill can readily be modified to produce concentrates from critical metals from alternate sources. Blue Moon intends to develop a hub and spoke business model by acquiring and developing smaller, high grade underground critical metals mines in the western United States and processing the mineralized material at the Springer Mill. This strategy is in-line with US federal government efforts to promote domestic production of critical metals and decrease dependence on foreign supply chains.
The Springer Property consists of approximately 11,280 acres of mineral claims and fee lands. The mineral resource is located entirely on private fee lands. The historical mineral resource on the Property is: (1)(2)(3)
The mine infrastructure includes a vertical shaft developed down to 1,600 feet, a headframe and 3 compartment hoist and associated equipment.
Blue Moon Mine owned by the Company in California could serve as one such feed, which is about 375 miles from the Mill by road. The primary Union Pacific rail spur is 7 miles away from the Mill and the site was historically served by a railway siding that could potentially be reinstated. The Mill is on private land with sufficient space to expand additional processing lines, and abundant room for tailings expansion, as well as strong electrical and road infrastructure. The Mill has several water rights that are in good standing in various stages, with some requiring extensions which will be conditions precedent to this Transaction closing as described above. Assuming all conditions precedent are met, the Transaction is expected to close over the following months.
Separately, on the back of this Transaction and its US asset base, the Company is also announcing that it intends to apply to list its common shares on the Nasdaq Capital Market with likely listing completed in Q1 2026. Christian Kargl-Simard, Blue Moon’s CEO comments, “The acquisition of the Mill opens up a huge opportunity for the Company to develop smaller higher-grade mines covering the critical minerals space, including base metals, antimony and tungsten in the US. The time to be building mines in the US is now, and our team is specifically strong in construction, operations and mine finance. The decision to apply and list on the NASDAQ is a critical step in our growth strategy focusing on the critical metals supply chain, while rapidly advancing the Company. Recently our liquidity has been larger on many days on the OTCQX than our TSXV listing, so this is just a natural progression.”

The technical and scientific information of this news release has been reviewed and approved by Mr. Dustin Small, P.Eng., a non-Independent Qualified Person, as defined by NI 43-101.
Notes:
(1) As at the date of this news release, a qualified person has not completed sufficient work to classify this historical estimate as current mineral resources or mineral reserves in accordance with NI 43-101 and Blue Moon is not treating the historical estimate as current mineral resources or mineral reserves. In order to verify the historical estimate, the Company needs to engage a qualified person to review the historical data, review any work completed on the property since the date of the estimate and complete a new technical report. Blue Moon views this historical data as an indicator of the potential size and grade of the mineralized deposits, and this data is relevant to Company’s future plans with respect to the property.
(2) Resource classification was performed according to CIM guidelines for indicated and inferred resources at the time and are based on drill spacing and density; the estimate was presented at 0.20 WO3% cutoff grade based on approximate mining cost of $40/ton, processing cost of $13.50/ton, administration cost of $7/ton, mill recovery of 82% and a WO3 price of $11.50/lb. Rounding may result in apparent summation differences between tonnes, grades and metal content; not considered material.
(3) The effective date of this estimate is August 20, 2012, and is contained in the “Preliminary Economic Assessment of the Springer Tungsten Mine, Pershing County, Nevada, USA” dated December 31, 2013 and prepared by Keith McCandlish of DMT Geosciences Ltd.
