IsoEnergy Ltd. (TSX: ISO) (OTCQX: ISENF) (“IsoEnergy”) 和 Purepoint Uranium Group Inc. (TSXV: PTU) (OTCQB: PTUUF) (“Purepoint”) 欣然宣布，IsoEnergy 已根据其合资企业 (“合资企业”) 的条款行使了其看跌期权 (“看跌期权”)，如 2024 年 12 月 19 日的新闻稿中所述。通过加强合作伙伴关系，两家公司现在具有战略优势，可以合作推进 10 个极具前景的铀矿项目的勘探，这些项目占地超过 98,000 公顷，位于东阿萨巴斯卡盆地，被誉为世界上最丰富的铀矿区之一。

行使看跌期权为合资企业建立了平衡的 50/50 所有权结构，Purepoint 将以 400 万股换取 IsoEnergy 合资企业 10% 的权益，从而增强 IsoEnergy 对 Purepoint 多元化投资组合和合作伙伴关系的敞口，包括：

- Hook Lake 合资企业：与 Cameco 和 Orano 合作，该项目战略性地位于阿萨巴斯卡盆地西侧，与 Fission Uranium 的 Triple R 和 NexGen 的 Arrow 矿床走向相同。值得注意的是，该合资企业中的 Spitfire 发现在 10.0 米处发现了 10.3% 的 U3O8；

- Smart Lake 合资企业：与 Cameco 合作，该项目位于阿萨巴斯卡盆地西侧，距 Hook Lake 西北偏西约 18 公里，距 Orano 历史悠久的 Cluff Lake 矿南偏西南 60 公里。在 Smart Lake 的钻探在地下仅 200 米处就发现了 15.4 米的 147 ppm 铀。Purepoint 最近宣布了一项耗资 120 万美元的钻探计划；

- Denare West VHMS 项目：该项目由 Foran Mining 选择，位于萨斯喀彻温省中东部，地理位置优越，与 Foran 的旗舰 McIlvenna Bay 项目相邻且走向相同。

IsoEnergy 首席执行官 Philip Williams 评论道：“在我们推进阿萨巴斯卡盆地一些最有前景的铀矿资产之际，向 50/50 合作伙伴关系的过渡使我们的利益保持一致并加强了我们的合作。通过增加我们在 Purepoint 的股权，IsoEnergy 增强了其对多元化和具有战略价值的投资组合的接触，以确保我们能够利用他们更广泛的勘探成功。IsoEnergy 的股权投资组合现在价值约 4000 万美元，包括 Nexgen Energy Ltd.、Premier American Uranium Inc.、Atha Energy Corp.、Jaguar Uranium Corp.、Future Fuels Inc. 和 Purepoint Uranium Group Inc.[1] 的持股。”

Purepoint 总裁兼首席执行官 Chris Frostad 补充道：“IsoEnergy 决定行使看跌期权，凸显了我们合作伙伴关系的实力和合资项目的潜力。我们相信，作为平等的合作伙伴，我们拥有独特的优势，可以推进这些高价值资产，同时利用财务优势以及我们合作带来的运营优势。”

根据认沽期权的条款，IsoEnergy 将获得 4,000,000 股 Purepoint 普通股（“PTU 股份”），以换取 IsoEnergy 在合资企业中的 10% 权益，从而将 IsoEnergy 在 Purepoint 的所有权增加至 [11.4%]。行使认沽期权后，IsoEnergy 共拥有 7,333,334 股 PTU 股份和 3,333,334 份认股权证，以非稀释为基础，约占已发行和流通在外的 PTU 股份的 11.41%，以部分稀释为基础，约占已发行和流通在外的 PTU 股份的 15.78%（假设 IsoEnergy 持有的认股权证被行使）。

合资企业仍然是两家公司勘探战略的基石。这种平等的伙伴关系确保了全面协调和共同致力于推动在世界上最丰富的铀矿区之一发现铀矿。

With this strengthened partnership, both companies are now strategically positioned to collaboratively advance the exploration of 10 highly prospective uranium projects spanning over 98,000 hectares in the eastern Athabasca Basin, renowned as one of the world's most prolific uranium districts.

The exercise of the Put Option establishes a balanced 50/50 ownership structure for the Joint Venture, with Purepoint acquiring 10% of IsoEnergy's JV interest in exchange for 4 million shares, enhancing IsoEnergy's exposure to Purepoint's diverse portfolio and partnerships, including:

- Hook Lake Joint Venture: In partnership with Cameco and Orano, this project is strategically located on the western side of the Athabasca Basin, along the same trend as Fission Uranium's Triple R and NexGen's Arrow deposits. Notably, the Spitfire discovery within this joint venture returned 10.3% U3O8 over 10.0 metres;

- Smart Lake Joint Venture: In partnership with Cameco, this project is situated on the western side of the Athabasca Basin, approximately 18 km west-northwest of Hook Lake and 60 km south-southwest of Orano's historic Cluff Lake Mine. Drilling at Smart Lake intersected 15.4 metres of 147 ppm U at just 200 metres below surface. Purepoint recently announced a $1.2 million drill program for this project; and

- Denare West VHMS Project: Optioned to Foran Mining, this project is strategically located in east-central Saskatchewan, adjacent to and along the same trend as Foran's flagship McIlvenna Bay Project.

Philip Williams, CEO of IsoEnergy, commented, "The transition to a 50/50 partnership aligns our interests and strengthens our collaboration as we advance some of the most promising uranium assets in the Athabasca Basin. By increasing our equity position in Purepoint, IsoEnergy enhances its exposure to a diverse and strategically valuable portfolio, with a view to ensuring we are positioned to capitalize on their broader exploration successes.
