Scandium Canada Ltd. (TSX-V: SCD) is pleased to announce additional assay results from the 2026 diamond drilling program at its Crater Lake scandium project in Nunavik, Québec.

The Company has received the assay results from an additional 9 holes collared to extract a bulk sample from the TG deposit. Every hole drilled for that purpose and reported to date intersected the targeted lithologies and mineralization, namely scandium-bearing olivine-rich or pyroxene-rich ferrosyenites, at grades consistent with those of the mineral resource estimate (MRE 2025) of the TG deposit.

As of September 22^nd, a total of 40 holes totaling 7,701 m have been drilled and an additional 7 holes are expected before the 2026 campaign is completed. All drill holes location are shown in Figure 1.

Quote from the President and CEO

“We are very glad with the pace and results of the 2026 drilling campaign. All of our objectives have been met, i.e., collecting a mine representative bulk sample of about 15 to 16 tons to support metallurgical testwork leading to a feasibility study, confirming the lateral extensions of the TG deposit to the North and South for a minimum of 240 m to date and identifying additional exploration targets on the property,” said Simon Thibault, President and Chief Executive Officer, Scandium Canada.

DRILLING RESULTS

The assay results reported come from 9 bulk sample drill holes located along the TG deposit, as delineated in the mineral resource estimate (MRE 2025) dated May 2, 2025. See Figure 1.

Sampling, analysis, quality assurance and quality control

Strict QA/QC procedures, compliant with the disclosure requirements of National Instrument 43-101 and with industry best practice, were applied to sample handling for the Crater Lake project, including the insertion of certified reference materials (standards), duplicates and blanks at regular intervals through the sequence of samples. A total of 4,591 drill core samples, and 381 QA-QC samples, including 2,329 drill core samples and 183 QAQC samples from the Bulk Sample (CLB-26) drillholes; and, 2,262 core samples and 198 QAQC samples from the Resource & Exploration drillholes were sent to Activation Laboratories Ltd. The QAQC samples are made up of OREAS certified standards and blanks. All sample preparation and analytical work was carried out at its facilities in Ancaster, Ontario. Several analytical techniques were used to characterize the samples, which Actlabs combines in the analytical package “8-REE”. The package covers whole-rock and trace element analysis. Whole-rock analyses are performed by lithium metaborate/tetraborate fusion with an inductively coupled plasma finish. Trace elements are also analyzed by fusion ICP/MS.
