Idaho Strategic Resources Receives $1 Million Funding From Department Of Energy For Critical Material Innovation Project Idaho Strategic Resources had one of its participating project proposals submitted to the Department of Energy under Funding Opportunity 3105: Critical Material Innovation, Efficiency, and Alternatives selected for funding. The maximum possible amount of $1 million was awarded to the project titled, 'Innovative and Low-Emission Manufacturing Pathways of Mixed Rare Earth Metals from Idaho Sourced Minerals'. The announcement by the U.S. Department of Energy on May 19, 2026 is a welcomed achievement following the initial proposal submission in December of 2023. This project brings together key Idaho stakeholders such as the University of Idaho, Idaho National Laboratory, Idaho Geological Survey, and Idaho Strategic Resources to advance the exploration and extraction of Idaho-sourced rare earth elements for potential commercialization of rare earth metals (REMs), using innovative and efficient manufacturing pathways. The project was submitted under Funding Opportunity 3105, Topic Area 3: Next Generation Technologies, which is focused on early-stage, high-impact technologies aimed at transforming how the U.S. extracts processes, separates, recycles, and manufactures critical minerals. Specifically, Topic Area 3 called for project proposals with high ambitions and a low technology readiness level (between 0-4) that were not based on improvements or modifications to existing technologies or methods. Idaho Strategic’s role in the project is to identify areas within Idaho Strategic’s existing rare earth elements landholdings in central Idaho that are enriched in rare earth elements with a specific focus on neodymium, praseodymium, and dysprosium. Idaho Strategic will then work with members from the University of Idaho to collect a representative sample for downstream workplans including novel separation technologies and potential metallization. Every step of the project is being supported with technical guidance from both Idaho National Laboratory and the Idaho Geological Survey. The maximum amount of funding possible under Topic Area 3 was $1 million of support. The government funding awarded to the project team will be allocated primarily to supporting the downstream work being conducted by the University of Idaho, as project lead, with technical support from Idaho National Laboratory. No direct cost share is required to be provided by Idaho Strategic Resources as the industry partner. Valuation Update With 7 Day Price Move • May 21

Idaho Strategic Resources, Inc. Announces Lemhi Pass Soil Sampling and Radiometrics Survey Results Further Refines Permitting and Drill Targeting for 2026 and Beyond Id Idaho Strategic Resources, Inc. announced the results from its widespread soil sampling and radiometrics surveys covering key prospects within the Idaho portion of its Lemhi Pass rare earth elements project. With respect to Idaho Strategic's Lemhi Pass project, the Company's goal during the 2025 geology field season was to build on high-potential rare earth prospects by collecting both soil geochemistry and radiometric data to aid in advancing exploration, permitting, and drill targeting efforts. The soils geochemistry and radiometrics have defined wide elongated zones of neodymium (Nd) enrichment and radiometric highs. The next step will be boots on the ground geological mapping to refine this broad data into targets for economic evaluation, including permitting for drill targets both at Lemhi Pass and Mineral Hill. The Company plans to expand the soils groundwork and radiometrics footprint in 2026 to evaluate additional areas of its large Lemhi Pass land package on both sides of the Idaho-Montana border. The two images included in this release are two different scales of LiDAR maps covering a portion of the Idaho side of the Company's Lemhi Pass project. Over the winter months, while Idaho Strategic's geologists aren't active in the field, the Company will plan its 2026 exploration programs and begin first round processing tests from a variety of samples taken across the Company's rare earth elements (REE) project portfolio, working with a well-known REE processing industry consultant and SGS Laboratory.

Idaho Strategic Announces High-Grade Gold Drill Results at its Operating Golden Chest Mine - Expected to Expand Paymaster Resources Id Idaho Strategic Resources announced high-grade drill results from its 2025 summer drill program designed to expand on known resources within the Paymaster shoot at the Company's Golden Chest Mine. The reported Paymaster drilling is expected to contribute to an increase in IDR's mineral resources at the Golden Chest Mine. The Paymaster remains open down-dip and along strike following this summer's drilling program and will continue to be the target of additional infill and resource expansion drilling throughout the winter. The current resource outlined in the Paymaster is located approximately 168 meters south of the Company's existing underground development, placing the Paymaster near the top of the list as the next area for mine development and eventual production. The drill highlights released in the table below are the result of 3,821 meters of drilling from a single surface drill pad. The drill intercepts are reported in drilled thickness and in grams of gold per tonne: Both the reported drill results, along with ongoing updates to the Company's internal Golden Chest geologic model, have significantly increased the Company's understanding of the Paymaster. The company will continue to take advantage of higher gold prices to reinvest in both operations and its exploration, setting the stage for continued growth at the Golden Chest Mine and in the broader Murray Gold Belt". Idaho Strategic expects to provide its updated resource calculations in the first quarter of 2026 as a part of the updated Technical Report for the Golden Chest Mine filed as an exhibit to the Company's 2025 Annual Report.

New minor risk - Shareholder dilution The company's shareholders have been diluted in the past year. Increase in shares outstanding: 15% This is considered a minor risk. Shareholder dilution occurs when there is an increase in the number of shares on issue that is not proportionally distributed between all shareholders. Often due to the company raising equity capital or some options being converted into stock. All else being equal, if there are more shares outstanding then each existing share will be entitled to a lower proportion of the company's total earnings, thus reducing earnings per share (EPS). While dilution might not always result in lower EPS (like if the company is using the capital to fund an EPS accretive acquisition) in a lot cases it does, along with lower dividends per share and less voting power at shareholder meetings. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Minor Risks Share price has been volatile over the past 3 months (13% average weekly change).

New minor risk - Insider selling There has been significant insider selling in the company's shares over the past 3 months. Total value of shares sold: US$2.9m This is considered a minor risk. There are several reasons why an insider may be selling, including to cover a tax obligation or pay for some other expense. However, we generally consider it a negative if insiders have been selling, especially if they do so below the current price. It implies that they considered a lower price to be reasonable. This is a weak signal, but if there is a pattern of unexplained selling, it can be a sign the insider believes the company's stock is overpriced. Note: We only include open market transactions and private dispositions of directly owned stock by individuals, not by corporations or trusts. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Minor Risks Share price has been volatile over the past 3 months (11% average weekly change).

New minor risk - Share price stability The company's share price has been volatile over the past 3 months. It is more volatile than 75% of American stocks, typically moving 9.2% a week. This is considered a minor risk. Share price volatility indicates the stock is highly sensitive to market conditions or economic conditions rather than being sensitive to its own business performance, which may also be inconsistent. It also increases the risk of potential losses in the short term as the stock tends to have larger drops in price more frequently than other stocks. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Minor Risks Share price has been volatile over the past 3 months (9.2% average weekly change).

New minor risk - Shareholder dilution The company's shareholders have been diluted in the past year. Increase in shares outstanding: 2.5% This is considered a minor risk. Shareholder dilution occurs when there is an increase in the number of shares on issue that is not proportionally distributed between all shareholders. Often due to the company raising equity capital or some options being converted into stock. All else being equal, if there are more shares outstanding then each existing share will be entitled to a lower proportion of the company's total earnings, thus reducing earnings per share (EPS). While dilution might not always result in lower EPS (like if the company is using the capital to fund an EPS accretive acquisition) in a lot cases it does, along with lower dividends per share and less voting power at shareholder meetings. This is currently the only risk that has been identified for the company. Reported Earnings • Mar 25

Id Idaho Strategic Resources Announces the Results of Its 2023 Mineral Hill Exploration Program Id Idaho Strategic Resources announced the results of its 2023 Mineral Hill exploration program, which included mapping, sampling and evaluation for development. These efforts resulted in the discovery of a new pink carbonatite, which yielded 34.1% total rare earth oxides (TREO). Bulk sampling along both the known and newly discovered carbonatite trends may contain some of the highest grade REE values ever identified in the Mineral Hill District. The Upper Roberts' carbonatite trend is made up of multiple-colored, multi-grade carbonatites. New outcrops of carbonatite were also found during mapping efforts. These mapped outcrops, show additional trends broken by faulting and intruded by additional igneous activity. Geochemical analysis for these additional carbonatite exposures is pending, but these assay results may point the way to the heart of the carbonatite system. Additional field work on the Mineral Hill project included the collection of large bulk metallurgy samples for mineral processing and concentrate development evaluations. These samples were gathered along strike of the main carbonatite trend beginning at the 28.2% TREO exposure and continued 25 ft uphill towards the recently mapped 34.1% TREO outcrop. The bulk samples included both pink and pale-yellow carbonatite units, since they are contiguous. The results of the bulk samples (#98370-#98376) range from 20.8% to 28.6% TREO. The company is planning to develop drill targets that will further define Upper Roberts' REE potential. The next step will be cross-section interpretations to aid in planning for drill testing and permitting. Future work in this area will include the continuation of mapping efforts over the remaining 1,800 acres in order to locate new carbonatite occurrences. Mapping efforts identified other potential carbonatite deposits and furthered the extents of the main known carbonatite mineralization to over 1/2-mile along a continuous trend of carbonatite - referred to as Upper Roberts.

Idaho Strategic Resources Announces Results of Its 2023 Trenching Program at Lemhi Pass Idaho Strategic Resources announced results of its 2023 trenching program at Lemhi Pass. A total of 1,070 linear feet was divided to construct eight trenches over three prospects. The three historical prospects known as In-Trust, Sparky, and Independence mark the first prospects out of IDR's expansive land position to be tested in the district. IDR maintains approximately 11,425 acres of unpatented claims and state lease land at Lemhi Pass. Two of the three In-Trust trenches encountered strong REE mineralization associated with faults. The 13 samples in the table below assay up to 3.28% total rare earths (TREE) and average 1.5% TREE. Of note, are very strong enrichments of neodymium (Nd), praseodymium (Pr), samarium (Sm), and dysprosium (Dy). These elements are used in the manufacture of rare earth permanent magnets and are among the most valued of all the rare earth elements (REEs). In the listed assays, the distribution of rare earth elements is 58% Nd, 8% Pr, 8% Sm, and 2% Dy. Incredibly, these four components combined account for up to 76% of the total rare earth element percentage. At Sparky, four samples collected from material during trenching returned the highest published total rare earth elements assay (5.2% TREE) in the Lemhi Pass district to date. These samples, although not in place, are considered representative of the mineralization source below. The trenching was unable to uncover structural features as the site had been historically excavated and reclaimed and the bedrock proved deeper than the excavator limits. The mineralized rock samples from Sparky show yellow-brown to red-brown frothy, boxwork textured rock, flooded with golden brown jasperoidal material. The greater Lemhi district straddles the Idaho-Montana border in central Idaho, occupies more than 55 square miles, and encompasses more than 250 prospects. Exploration sampling by IDR in 2022 confirmed the presence of rare earth elements mineralization along a 1.5-mile-long section of the Lemhi Pass Fault; where other large regional structural features, such as the Bull Moose and Dan Patch faults, either intersect or approach one another. REE mineralization in this area occurs in intense shear/fracture zones hosted in Mesoproterozoic metasediments. Trenching highlights came from the In-Trust prospect which lies in the middle of the regional structural intersection. Three trenches were cut in the In-Trust area; one trench failed to reach bedrock and was abandoned, while the other two trenches uncovered strong REE mineralization associated with structures manifested as chocolate brown to purple-black clay fault gouge with specular hematite. The fault clay ranges in thickness from 10 to 50 cm and displays mylonitic and fluidized textures. The company expected shallow flat, basal thrust in orientation, but instead were pleased to find moderate to high angle dipping features as well. In Trench 2, the thrust feature was exposed for 25 meters along strike. The mylonite is west-dipping with elongated and rounded fluidized clasts. The listed samples are continuous 3-meter channels along strike of the mylonite. In Trench 3, the same chocolate-colored mineralized material was encountered, but along moderate to high angle dipping structural features. Assay results, showing rare earth elements plus yttrium and scandium, for the two trenches are displayed in the table above. This years' trenching at Independence failed to uncover the REE bearing fault. The rock units in this area were observed to be sheared with moderate to strong alterations. Assay results showed this area to have moderately elevated niobium values of up to 1200 ppm, but low REE values. Reported Earnings • Nov 06

Idaho Strategic Resources, Inc. Extends Strike Length of High-Grade Mineralization At Its Mineral Hill Rare Earth Elements Project Idaho Strategic Resources, Inc. announced the extension of high-grade mineralization at its Mineral Hill rare earth elements (REE) project. The Company is also pleased to report on the progress made at each of its Idaho REE projects and discusses the Company's partnerships and potential opportunities. Mineral Hill REE Project: Over the course of the 2023 rare earth elements geology field season, Idaho Strategic achieved several milestones and laid the foundation for continued success. In addition to sampling greater than 23% total rare earth elements (TREE) at the Company's Mineral Hill Project, IDR geologists have thus far traced that mineralization for over 0.5 miles of strike length, utilizing the Company's X-Ray Fluorescence (XRF) machine to confirm the continuity and possibly build upon this already impressive REE grade and composition. The Mineral Hill Project is made up of several prospects: Roberts, Phyllis Gross, and Lower Lee Buck. The Roberts prospect's 0.5-mile seam hosts a continuous 1,500-foot carbonatite with thicknesses up to 10 feet, and locally contains assay grades in excess of 23% TREE. IDR geologists have reason to believe recent samples sent to the lab for analysis may very well exceed the previous TREE grades of 23%. IDR's sampling at Lower Lee Buck returned TREE grades of up to 10%. The Phyllis Gross area, located between the Roberts and Lee Buck prospects, indicates remarkable carbonatite activity and was controlled by one family and largely left unevaluated for over 75 years prior to IDR's ownership. Detailed geological mapping of the high-grade REE seam at the Roberts prospect in preparation for drill permitting is ongoing and this season's mapping has led to additional carbonatite discoveries identified throughout the Company's broader Mineral Hill project. Simultaneous with the Company's work at its Mineral Hill Project, IDR began the first trenching program at its expansive Lemhi Pass Project with the goal of better understanding its structural geology and undertaking the sampling of prospective and known areas of REE mineralization. The Lemhi Pass Project is made up of numerous prospects spread across 10 square miles and this season IDR commenced trenching on three of its many prospects within the Company's greater Lemhi Pass landholdings: Sparky, In-Trust and Independence. Assay results are still pending on various samples collected from vastly different geological settings and REE mineralization. Significant and remarkable neodymium mineralization was collected from up to 12-inch-thick low angle faults and mylonite zones. Although these assays are still pending, data collected from a handheld XRF tool promises encouraging results. The Diamond Creek Project continues to advance its USFS permit for a core drilling program in the Simer and Frank Burch prospects targeted for the summer of 2024. Additional summer geological mapping and sampling for REE's in these areas returned results of up to 5% TREE which enhanced drilling targets. IDR geologists were excited to share highlights of the Company's 2022 Diamond Creek drilling campaign with geologists of the Tobacco Root Geological Society at their 48th Annual Field Conference. Two areas of Idaho Strategic Resource's projects, Diamond Creek and the Mineral Hill District, were given full-day field trips and the ensuing discussions were productive and informational for both IDR and the attendees at the Tobacco Root Field Conference. Over the past year the folks at IDR have been diligent in seeking and forging relationships with several strategic and community partners. The list includes Idaho National Labs, Dept. of Energy, Colorado School of Mines, the University of Idaho, Center for Advanced Energy Studies, Idaho Geological Survey, and other Idaho state and local agencies. The Company has also worked with other industry folks that are focused on addressing the lack of a domestic REE supply chain. Over the course of 2023, these relationships have been strengthened and plans are in place to look for opportunities to develop and commercialize new and future mining technologies in tandem with one another.

Idaho Strategic Resources, Inc. Samples 23.5% Total Rare Earth Elements at its Mineral Hill Project Id Idaho Strategic Resources, Inc. announced the discovery of 23.5% total rare earth elements (TREE) in a sample taken from the Company's Mineral Hill Project in Lemhi County, Idaho. The Mineral Hill rare earth elements (REE) project is comprised of approximately 2,000 acres situated in the northern portion of the Idaho REE-Th Belt. The project includes four distinct REE occurrences known as Lower Roberts, Upper Roberts, Lower Lee Buck, and the newly added Phyllis Gross claim group. The target of the Company's latest exploration program at Mineral Hill was to locate and sample a previously reported REE sample from 1954 which reported 21.5% TREEs. The sample was initially reported in a thesis by Fred Sturm (University of Idaho) and then again by Agatin Abbott (Id Idaho Bureau of Mines and Geology). Sturm's report describes the occurrence as "an individual mass of monazite greater than any other exposed through the region". After reviewing the two historic reports, IDR geologists located and sampled Sturm and Abbott's monazite occurrence and assay results for sample 98241 showed 23.5% TREEs, confirming the accuracy of the historic work the Company is building upon while providing ample support for the original decision to focus on this area overall. IDR geologists describe the monazite mass as a 10 centimeter (4-inch) thick, pale-yellow sandy seam enveloped by two distinct carbonatites (Photo 1). The total width of the carbonatites and seam is 0.85 meters (2.5 feet). The hanging wall carbonatite body is greenish colored with large crystals of ilmenite. The footwall side of the monazite seam is brightly colored, red-brown to orange-brown, crystalline carbonatite that assays 7.5% TREE. Equally as impressive as the overall grade, is the favorable mix of REEs. As indicated in the table above, the more valuable rare earths used in magnet applications, such as neodymium (Nd) and praseodymium (Pr), compose approximately 16.23% of the total reported rare earth elements. Given the favorable mix of individual rare earth elements and the impressive overall TREE grade, IDR plans to send the sample out for additional metallurgical testing, including flotation, gravity, and magnetic separation techniques - and possibly other recovery and/or separation techniques being studied.

Idaho Strategic Resources, Inc. Completes Surface Mining of High-Grade Jumbo Vein Idaho Strategic Resources, Inc. announced the recent completion of surface mining of the high-grade Jumbo Vein and plans for exploration of the Jumbo Vein by drifting along the vein from the pit bottom. Surface mining of the Jumbo Vein resulted in 4,000 tonnes of ore at a grade of 17.3 grams per tonne (gpt) gold. The Jumbo Vein consists of a banded quartz vein that typically occurs 10 to 20 m in the hanging wall of the Idaho Fault. It is known to occur in the central part of the Golden Chest mine property and had minor production in the late 1890's to early 1900's. The recent surface mining consisted of a small pit on a near-surface section of the vein, following it down from the 1115 m elevation to the 1069 m elevation. On each mined bench, the Jumbo Vein was typically exposed for 22-26 m along strike with a width of 0.3 to 1.0 m. The average vein strike was N18oE and average dip was 53oNW. The vein was well-oxidized with abundant iron-oxides and minor amounts of pyrite, arsenopyrite, and chalcopyrite. Visible gold was often seen in hand samples. As the Jumbo Pit was mined, blast hole drill cuttings were sampled and assayed to direct ore control. An average weighted grade for the ore polygons, based on the blast hole samples, was 13 gpt gold. However, more selective mining occurred along the vein in practice and composite samples of mined truckloads showed a higher weighted average of 17.3 gpt gold. Three vein chip samples were taken across the vein exposed in the southeast pit wall as mining progressed down in the Jumbo Pit and the results are displayed below (lengths of sample are in true thickness). Exploration drilling was completed in the vicinity of the Jumbo Pit during 2011 and indicates continuity of the vein along strike and vertically below the existing pit bottom.

Idaho Strategic Resources, Inc. Discovers 32 Meters of Continuous Rare Earth Elements and Niobium Mineralization At the Surface At Diamond Creek Idaho Strategic Resources, Inc. announced the discovery and sample results of 32 meters (m) of Rare Earth Elements (REE) and Niobium (Nb) mineralization across a drill pad at Diamond Creek. The mineralization was exposed at the surface providing the opportunity to be sampled and recorded during post-drilling reclamation efforts. The company identifies each rare earth elements' individual assayed value contributing to the total rare earth elements (TREE) percentage. The entire 32m interval averages 1.28% TREE, which IDR views as potential ore grade mineralization. The total REE assays average 1.5% between 4m and 18m, with elevated values of 2% REE at 8m and 12m. The neodymium assay averages 2,714 ppm between 4m and 20m, with a high value of 3,690 ppm at 8m. Also noted is the continued presence of Niobium. A total of 8 samples reflected Nb greater than 5,000 ppm (0.5%) which exceeded the upper limits of this assay process and are undergoing further testing. Another 4 samples demonstrated values near .5% Nb - with niobium showing a presence in all the samples. The REE and Niobium mineralization was contiguous and continuous along strike for more than 32 meters. Vertical channel samples were taken every 1 meter for the first 20 meters of exposure, then every 2 meters for the last 12 meters. The exposed geology displayed evidence of dynamic fluid movement along shears and fracture zones forming both replacement and fracture-filling type deposits. Additionally, the deposit at Diamond Creek appears to be a clay-hosted REE and Niobium deposit. The benefits of a clay-hosted deposit are the potential for less costly, more environmentally friendly mining methods and easier separation methods. Currently, a large portion of the World's heavy rare earth elements are produced from clay-hosted deposits utilizing in-situ mining methods. The extent of the clays at Diamond Creek are still unknown and further test work is underway to characterize the material and build upon the Company's recent successful exploration results. The Diamond Creek district is located a few miles northwest of Salmon, Idaho, and is listed as one of the top domestic occurrences of REEs in the United States by numerous sources. In 1979, M.H. Staatz, of the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), estimated an overall probable resource at Diamond Creek of approximately 70,800 metric tonnes of total rare-earth oxides, using an average grade of 1.22%. The scope of IDR's 2022 Phase 1 program was to test and verify mineralization type and grades. The focus for this year is to build on these results and expand the resource in Phase 2, which includes expanding to the Cymer prospect, located approximately 600 meters to the south of these trench results. One goal of expansion is to locate new mineralization and drill deeper on known occurrences, hopefully adding tonnage (in addition to strike length) to this potential source. The Phase 2 proposal has already been submitted to the USFS for review. In the meantime, IDR is continuing its geological evaluation of Diamond Creek to help delineate and identify potentially larger covered mineralized systems, or other un-known fracture-fill/replacement type bodies. Additionally, the University of Idaho and the Idaho Geological Survey, as part of the IGEM Program, continue conducting REE ore characterization and alternative "green" recovery methods.

Idaho Strategic Resources, Inc. Locates Greater than 4% TREO's - Including Over 2.5% Neodymium - From Exploration at Lemhi Pass Idaho Strategic Resources announced the locating of surface outcrops with greater than 4% Total Rare Earth Oxides (TREO's) during its 2022 exploration program at Lemhi Pass. In the well-studied Lemhi Pass District, previous state and federal agency work have shown maximum REE assay values as high as 2%. These new IDR sample results are significant because they essentially double the previously known upper end of assay values as published in the USGS, IGS and other references. These latest assays lend validation to company's belief that the Lemhi Pass District is largely underexplored for REE's; since their discovery in the district was ancillary, to the government's search for nuclear related fuels in the 1950's. The dominant REE mineral is monazite. Monazite is a phosphate mineral and most of company's strongest REE values are associated with phosphorus. This mineral occurs as opaque, subhedral, yellow-green to reddish-brown crystals which are mostly microscopic in size, making it hard to detect with the naked eye. Gangue minerals associated with REE mineralization include quartz, pink microcline, and iron oxides; such as specularite and limonite. Lemhi Pass is at the southern end of the 70-mile REE-Th Belt, a northwest trending zone that possesses most of the REE lode occurrences in Idaho. The company has claimed a large number of the known REE occurrences at Lemhi Pass, which may prove to be one of the most prospective REE areas in the US. In 2022, IDR increased its land position from around 4,400 acres of unpatented claims to approximately 7,600 acres of unpatented claims; and an additional 600+ acres of leased state land.

Idaho Strategic Releases First Results from Diamond Creek - Intercepts 11.3 Meters of 1.3% Rees Including Intervals with 2.2% Rees and 1.0% Niobium Idaho Strategic Resources announced its first drill results from the Diamond Creek REE Project in Lemhi County, Idaho. Diamond Creek is a well-recognized rare earth element occurrence, which is listed as a top ten domestic source of REE's in various USGS documents. Although it has a published resource, it is based on surface sampling only and is unverified. Previous to this year's drilling only two shallow core holes were completed in 2012 with unknown results. The company objective this year was to verify the existence of REE mineralization, assess the grades and examine the extents of this potential resource. The deposits in the Diamond Creek area are of two types: fracture filling and replacement, with the replacement bodies being composed of bright and varied oxides. Much of the core drilling was in the Lucky Gem area where strong REE mineralization at surface was also encountered A rough geometry developed from drillholes 5, 6 and 7; placed drillhole DC 22-8 in position to drill down dip through the shallow dipping replacement body. The drillhole collared into a fault and encountered REE mineralization immediately after the fault, which continued for 50.3 meters before the hole was lost. The intercept highlights below are in percent total rare earth oxide (TREO) and in percent Niobium (Nb) with drilled thickness, as vein orientations have yet to be determined. An appealing characteristic with Diamond Creek and other properties in the Idaho Rare Earth Element-Thorium Belt (Idaho REE-Th Belt) is the abundance of neodymium (Nd). The Company had three assays that were greater than 3000 ppm or 0.3% neodymium. In addition to the validation of REEs through the drill bit, another equally important discovery was made; the strong occurrence of Niobium (Nb). Core hole DC 22-8 showed intense enrichment of Niobium, with 0.7% Nb over 10.1m, including 10,000 ppm Nb (1%) over 0.5m. While Niobium is an equally important critical mineral, it is not one of the 17 rare earth elements and not included in TREO calculations. It is considered a positive addition and its potential value to the project (and possibly to the value of a future mineral concentrate) is not yet known. Company plan to build upon this discovery. The table below shows assays for the rare earth elements and niobium throughout the 2.9m to 14.2m interval in DC 22-8. The known rare earth element mineralization occurs along a 2-mile length of the Diamond Creek Fault. The project consists of four distinct areas identified as, from north to south: Contact, Lucky Gem, Cymer, and Frank Burch. The 2022 drill program tested two areas: the Contact and Lucky Gem areas in the north. The next phase of drilling at Diamond Creek has been planned and submitted for approval to the USFS. The next phase drill plan will extend to the Cymer area in the southern portion of the property. Reported Earnings • Nov 16

Idaho Strategic Resources, Inc. Intercepts Additional High-Grade - 54.7 Gpt Gold over 0.32 M & 27.0 Gpt Gold over 0.19 M - in Latest Paymaster Drilling Idaho Strategic Resources to provide highlights from its latest Paymaster hole, GC 22-224. The goal of the latest holes in this area between the Paymaster and Joe Dandy Shoots of the Golden Chest is to test the potential of ‘connecting' the two shoots at the 800-Level underground and defining additional gold resources. The "800-Level" is of specific importance given it is also the level of current underground production in the Skookum Shoot, which lies directly north of the Paymaster. If indeed the Paymaster and Joe Dandy connect at or near the 800-level, it could provide the Company the opportunity to mine two veins within the same shoot, which should greatly improve efficiency and ultimately production costs. The Company is in the process of evaluating the costs to determine if/when development into the Paymaster-Joe Dandy area may make sense. The highlight of GC 22-224 is the 54.7 grams per tonne (gpt) gold vein intercept over 0.32 meters (m) true thickness, from 133.6 m to 134.1 m and 27.0 grams per tonne (gpt) gold intercepted over 0.19 meters (m) true thickness from 134.1 m to 134.4 m. As previously discussed, and as illustrated in the tables below, the Joe Dandy and Paymaster share similar characteristics - such as gold-bearing veins flanking either side of a quartz monzonite sill. Thus far, it appears the Paymaster could be accessed by connecting to the existing Skookum ramp as an escapeway and driving a new ramp for haulage purposes. Core hole GC 22-224 was drilled just prior to moving the company drill rig to the previously discussed summer drill locations in the Murray Gold Belt (MGB). Annuncio • Nov 04
Idaho Strategic Resources, Inc. Announces Completion of Its 2022 Diamond Creek Rare Earth Element Drill Program Via A Letter to Shareholders from Its VP of Exploration Idaho Strategic Resources, Inc. announced the conclusion of its first-phase exploratory drilling on its Diamond Creek Rare Earth Elements Project; after a two-month delay of the program due to the Moose Fire. IDR completed twelve drillholes from five different pads for a total of 1,200 meters (m). The following is a letter to shareholders from Idaho Strategic's VP of Exploration, Rob Morgan. It is apparent from looking at the core, that it has a successful test with this drill program at Diamond Creek. One drill hole completed on the Lucky Gem drill pad successfully center-punched the zone and intercepted 46 meters of brilliantly colored REE mineralization. In addition to nice concentrations of REE's, also noted areas with higher readings of Niobium and Titanium. The company is still working on what this might mean economically if it holds true with assay results. At Diamond Creek, the REE mineralization occurs along a 2-mile length of the Diamond Creek Fault. The project consists of four distinct areas identified as Contact, Lucky Gem, Simer, and Frank Burch. The 2022 drill program tested two of these areas; the Contact area located in the north, and the Lucky Gem area located in the north-central portion of the project. The first four drillholes were conducted from two pads in the Contact area; and the remaining eight holes were completed from three pads in the Lucky Gem area, approximately 650 m along trend to the south of Contact. Initial assumptions for the program were that mineralization was in near vertical sheeted veins, however it was pleasantly surprised as it became evident that the REE mineralization at Diamond Creek appears to be a ‘hydrothermal fracture and replacement system'. The first three exploration holes attempted to cross as many structural features in the Contact area as possible including two REE zones and the Diamond Creek Fault. Visual inspection of these holes showed moderate to strong REE replacement alterations at each anticipated interval. A fourth hole was conducted from a second pad site approximately 100 m south. This hole targeted the Diamond Creek Fault and an outlier REE zone. Again, cursory visual inspection of this hole showed surprising enrichment of REE's at the Diamond Creek Fault. The next three holes were conducted from a pad in the Lucky Gem area. All holes encountered shallow, brightly colored, gossanous REE mineralization, and aided in defining a bedding conformable zone. Building on this information, the fourth hole was positioned in an attempt to center-punch this zone by drilling down-dip. This hole successfully intercepted 46 meters of brilliantly colored REE oxides. The last four holes targeted various directional, 25 m step-outs, from mineralization. Mineralization remains open in three directions.
