New major risk - Market cap size The company's market capitalization is less than US$10m. Market cap: CA$13.3m (US$9.63m) This is considered a major risk. Companies with a small market capitalization are most likely businesses that have not yet released a product to market or are simply a very small company without a wide reach. Either way, risk is elevated with these companies because there is a chance the product may not come to fruition or the company's addressable market or demand may not be as large as expected. In addition, if the company's size is the main factor, it is less likely to have many investors and analysts following it and scrutinizing its performance and outlook.

First Tellurium Corp. and PyroDelta Energy Corp Announce Development of A Far More Powerful Emergency and Recreational Thermoelectric Generator First Tellurium Corp. and its subsidiary PyroDelta Energy, have reported a ten-fold increase in the power generated by its prototype emergency and recreational thermoelectric generator first announced on October 2, 2024. As a result of ongoing R&D, the original prototype, which generated 20 watts of power, can now generate 200 watts of power with only a slight increase in weight and size. PyroDelta has published a new video demonstrating the upgraded tellurium-based thermoelectric generator, highlighting its power, portability, light weight and effectiveness. In the video, PyroDelta Director of Engineering Michael Abdelmaseh provides a firsthand look at the generator as it charges a cell phone and LED lights using only a 100-gram (3.5-ounce) canister of butane. Abdelmaseh noted that larger canisters, such as the standard 16-ounce versions sold for camp stoves, lanterns and small barbecues, will power the generator for longer periods. The 200-watt version of the generator, weighing approximately four pounds (1.8 kilograms), is designed for easy use and transport and runs on widely available propane or butane canisters. Canister fuels offer the advantages of a very long shelf life (as opposed to gasoline and diesel), plus convenient, odor-free storage. The device contains no moving parts and runs silently. Docherty noted that he and Michael Abdelmaseh will present the latest device at the Top Shelf Partners Commodities Global Expo 2024 in Fort Lauderdale on October 21, 2024. Duyuru • Jul 12

First Tellurium Corp. Completes Soil Sampling Program At Klondike Project in Colorado First Tellurium Corp. reported that its US-based team of geologists has completed soil sampling at the Company's Klondike tellurium-gold project in south-central Colorado. Data and interpretations from this program willinform a Phase 1 drilling program at Klondike planned for 2023, helping to better formulate drillhole targeting and permitting drill sites. A total of 343 soil samples were collected over nine days on a grid measuring 1 kilometer x 1 kilometer, with variable sample spacing of 30 to 60 meters east-west and 60 meters north-south. The original grid plan and budget called for 550 samples. The number of samples needed to complete the program's goals was reduced by eliminating samples from areas of transported alluvial deposits, areas of excessively steep terrain with rock talus/scree and little or no soil and eliminating a few peripheral grid lines in areas of lower priority as determined by the geological team on site. All samples will be shipped to ALS Geochemistry for trace-level analysis of 51 elements, including tellurium and gold. Results are expected to be received by mid-to late December. A slide show from the soil sampling program can be viewed here on the First Tellurium website. Using this new soil geochemical data in concert with First Solar's previous rock-chip sampling, geology, and geophysics will help the team make better drillhole-targeting decisions before submitting the needed permitting application documents. Samples were collected by digging into the generally rocky soil to a depth where the soil changed color and organic matter decreased, usually between 15 and 35 cm. Soil from the deeper horizon was then sieved to -10 mesh (approx. 2 mm) until approximately 0.75 kg of material was collected and securely bagged. The team enjoyed dry and mild early fall weather, which helped keep the sample material generally dry and easy to screen. Duyuru • Oct 20

First Tellurium Launches Soil Sampling Program At Klondike Project in Colorado First Tellurium Corp. reported it has launched a soil sampling program at its Klondike tellurium-gold project in Saguache County, south-central Colorado. This work is designed to provide further guidance for a subsequent diamond drilling program, as announced August 17, 2022. The sampling follows up on previous work conducted by First Solar Inc., when the property was being explored to supply tellurium for First Solar's cadmium-telluride solar panels. Due to the property's exceptional tellurium grades, Klondike was considered one of First Solar's top tellurium prospects worldwide. First Solar planned to use Klondike as a potential primary source of tellurium for manufacture of the company's cadmium-telluride (CdTe) solar panels. Duyuru • Oct 07
First Tellurium Conducts Channel Sampling on Multiple Copper Targets At Deer Horn First Tellurium Corp. reports that channel sampling is underway at the Company's Deer Horn Property in west-central British Columbia, following up on rock sampling at the Pond and H Spot showings in August and September which encountered widespread porphyry-style mineralization (assays pending). The team will also conduct channel sampling on a third zone of porphyry-style mineralization northeast of the Pond and H Spot zones. This target was first identified in 2012 and never explored. In addition, a prominent quartz vein outcrop at least three meters wide, discovered in September, will be sampled and measured. The third porphyry-style showing of copper-gold mineralization occupies the northeast quadrant of Deer Horn's 51-square kilometer claim holdings, on a ridge crest 1.8 km northwest of Kenney Lake. Select grab samples from this showing in 2012 graded from 10 to 4,540 ppm Cu, from 0.07 to 7.72 ppm Ag and from <5 to 262 ppb Au. Channel sampling of the zone, led by Dr. Lee Groat of the University of British Columbia, will further investigate its porphyry potential. A key objective of the current sampling is to identify drill targets for this third zone. Duyuru • Sep 22
First Tellurium Corp. Plans October Drill Campaign to Investigate Copper Porphyry Target At Deer Horn Property First Tellurium Corp. reports that, further to the recently completed copper porphyry investigation at the Company’s Deer Horn Property in west-central British Columbia, a follow-up drill campaign is planned for mid-October at the Pond copper porphyry target. The Pond is one of three porphyry-style showings discovered at Deer Horn in 2012. Dr. Lee Groat of the University of British Columbia, who led the August investigation, will direct the upcoming, small-scale drill campaign at Deer Horn. The August investigation followed up on copper showings discovered at Deer Horn in 2012. First Tellurium’s latest PEA noted that these showings were indicative of a copper porphyry system hidden from previous explorers due to glaciation. The Deer Horn Property, located 36 km south of Imperial Metals’ Huckleberry Cu-Mo mine and Surge Copper’s Ootsa-Berg Project, is a polymetallic asset covering 51 square-kilometers. In addition to copper, tellurium, silver and gold, Deer Horn hosts other mineralized targets and zones containing tungsten, bismuth, lead, zinc and molybdenum. Duyuru • Sep 02
First Tellurium Corp. Announces Investigation of Potential Copper Porphyry Systems Now Underway At First Tellurium's Deer Horn Property First Tellurium Corp. announced that the work is now underway to investigate potential copper porphyry systems at the Company’s Deer Horn Project in west-central British Columbia. The program, led by Dr. Lee Groat of the University of British Columbia, is following up on three copper showings first discovered at Deer Horn in 2012. The Company’s latest PEA noted that these showings were indicative of a copper porphyry system hidden from previous explorers due to glaciation. Two of the showings are located about one kilometer west-northwest of the known Te-Ag-Au resource and are indicative of bulk tonnage, porphyry style copper-silver mineralization and associated alteration. Full extent of either showing is unknown and open. A third copper target is situated northeast of the resource along ridge crests above Kenney Lake, spanning approximately four kilometers from the original showings. Prospecting includes the use of a portable spectrometer, which can greatly enhance identification and measurement of mineral systems. Duyuru • Aug 26

First Tellurium Mobilizes Crew for Copper Porphyry Exploration At Deer Horn Property First Tellurium Corp. reports that a work crew is mobilizing for further investigation of potential copper porphyry systems at the Deer Horn Project in west-central British Columbia. Deer Horn is located 36 kilometers south of Imperial Metals’ Huckleberry open pit copper mine and Surge Copper’s Ootsa-Berg project. The program, expected to begin before Labor Day, is led by Dr. Lee Groat of the University of British Columbia. Dr. Groat is a Professor at UBC’s Dept. of Earth and Ocean Sciences and a former NATO Postdoctoral Fellow at Cambridge University. The May 2018 PEA noted that bulk-tonnage, porphyry-style copper-silver mineralization and associated alteration was discovered north of the Deer Horn adit. Another new area of anomalous copper-gold mineralization was discovered along ridge crests northwest of Kenney Lake. The extent of both discoveries remains open and unknown at this time. The copper showings are located about one kilometer west-northwest of the known Te-Ag-Au resource zone and also northeast of the resource. Prospecting of these showings will include use of portable spectrometer, which can greatly enhance identification and measurement of mineral systems. The area around the Huckleberry Mine and Surge Copper’s Ootsa-Berg project is being recognized as one of the province’s most exciting emerging copper districts with significant untapped exploration potential. Recent discoveries by Surge Copper have added to interest in the region. Duyuru • Aug 18
First Tellurium Corp. Finalizes Upcoming Work Programs in British Columbia and Colorado First Tellurium Corp. reported that the Company is finalizing upcoming work programs for both its Deer Horn Project in British Columbia and Klondike Project in Colorado. Exploration will focus initially on the Deer Horn Property, with work expected to begin in September. Deer Horn’s May 2018 Preliminary Economic Assessment noted that copper showings there may be evidence of a largely hidden porphyry copper systems. Samples collected from this zone produced results as high as 4240 ppm Cu and 6.6 g/t Ag. This new copper porphyry potential adds further exploration value to the property. The copper showings are located about one kilometer west-northwest of the known Te-Ag-Au resource zone and also northeast of the resource. In Colorado, First Tellurium’s exploration at the Klondike Project will focus on drilling the property’s significant tellurium potential. Surface sampling by First Solar Inc. in 2006 found very high tellurium grades of up to 3.3% (33,000 ppm) at Klondike, along with locally high gold grades. Tellurium grades at Klondike were the higher encountered in the company’s nationwide exploration program. Duyuru • Jun 09
First Tellurium Corp. Reports that Rio Tinto Kennecott has Begun Processing Tellurium at its Bingham Canyon Copper Mine Near Salt Lake City, Utah First Tellurium Corp. reported that Rio Tinto Kennecott has begun processing tellurium at its Bingham Canyon Copper Mine near Salt Lake City, Utah. As a result, Kennecott is now one of only two U.S. producers of tellurium. The recently-completed, $2.9 million recovery circuit will produce approximately 20 tons of tellurium annually, or about 4% of global annual production estimated at 580 tonnes. The Deer Horn Project, located south of Smithers, holds one of the world’s few 43-101-compliant resources of tellurium. The Klondike Project was held originally by First Solar, one of the world’s largest solar panel manufacturers, as a potential primary tellurium source for its cadmium-telluride (CdTe) solar panels. Kennecott reported that the recovered tellurium will be refined in North America by 5N Plus. The refined tellurium will be supplied to Arizona-based First Solar Inc., the lone American company amongst the world’s ten largest solar panel firms. Advanced thin-film, cadmium telluride (CdTe) photovoltaic are highly efficient, rapidly manufactured and lower-cost when compared with conventional silicon-based panels. A recent article by S&P Global Intelligence noted that First Solar's plan to spend $1.36 billion to increase module capacity to 16 GW by 2024 seems certain to strain the tellurium market. If First Solar achieves its goals, its annual demand for the mineral will exceed last year's estimated global tellurium production by up to 70%, according to researchers at the Institute of Environmental Science and Technology at the Autonomous University of Barcelona.

First Tellurium Corp. Reports Historical Data Provides Eight New Porphyry Targets at First Tellurium’s Deer Horn Property First Tellurium Corp. reported that ongoing reviews of historical data from the Company’s Deer Horn polymetallic project in west-central British Columbia have provided management with at least eight fresh targets for porphyry-type and other mineral deposit targets, while further enhancing the property’s porphyry potential. These targets are under consideration for the next round of exploration at Deer Horn. In April 2012, Precision GeoSurveys Inc. of Langley, British Columbia conducted an airborne and radiometric survey over the Deer Horn Property. The intent was to provide a regional context to complement the detailed geological and geophysical survey of the property where exploration has focused on the current NI 43-101 resource of tellurium, gold and silver. Interpretation and analysis of the survey was conducted by Geosci Data Analysis (Geosci). Based on this geophysical interpretation, the author recommended further exploration of these eight targets.

First Tellurium Corp. Reports Assays Confirm Presence of High-Grade Mineralization At the Klondike Project in Colorado First Tellurium Corp. reported that all assays have been received for seven surface samples collected and shipped recently from First Tellurium's Klondike Project in Saguache County, Colorado. All samples confirmed the presence of high-grade tellurium (> 1%, or 10,000 ppm) in two samples. Moderate to high-grade gold and silver, as well as locally strong but variable copper, lead, and zinc were also present. Table 1 below provides a summary of the assay results of the samples. Klondike is a high-grade tellurium prospect held previously by First Solar Inc., one of the world's large solar panel producers. Due to the property's tellurium grades, Klondike was considered one of First Solar's top tellurium prospects worldwide. Assay results from surface samples at the Klondike Project, Colorado. The new samples were collected within the previously identified core area of historic mining and strongly mineralized surface exposures, which is roughly 130 m x 90 m in size. This area is also within a geophysical anomaly identified in a 2010 IP conductivity-resistivity survey sponsored by First Solar and performed by Zonge Geophysics. The geophysical anomaly measures at least 650 m in length, 80-150 m in width, and is situated at a depth of between 45 and over 100 m below surface. The anomaly is elongated northwest-southeast, and open to the southeast. Confirming of sampling conducted previously by First Solar The purpose of this limited sampling program was to confirm the presence of potentially high grade tellurium and other metals that were indicated by previous substantial surface sampling at the property by First Solar from 2006 to 2011. Several samples collected over that time showed tellurium levels over 1%, including two samples from the area of an old ore loadout bin which assayed over 3% tellurium. First Solar never publicly reported details of any assay results or other exploration work, since neither mineral exploration nor mining was considered part of their core business. Work was performed at that time by experienced mineral exploration geologists according to accepted industry standards, but results were not published according to N.I. 43-101 reporting requirements for mineral exploration companies on Canadian stock exchanges. Samples were collected from historic mine dumps and one outcrop exposed in an old trench. A delay in assay results was caused by the need to run four of the seven samples using an overage method for Te, since the normal analysis technique had an upper reporting limit of 500 ppm.

First Tellurium Initiates 2022 Exploration Program of Its Colorado Based Klondike Claim First Tellurium Corp. put boots on the ground to reconfirm previous assay results in preparation for its 2022 drill program. Tellurium (Te) is a very rare element that averages only . 3 parts per billion. Previous exploration on the property yielded tellurium grades of up to 3.3% (33,000 ppm), along with high gold and silver grades. The Colorado Geological Survey (CGS), in collaboration with the Colorado School of Mines, published reports on First Solar’s exploration at Klondike in the 2015 Colorado Mineral and Energy Industry Activities 2014 to 2015 publication. The Klondike property is situated in the San Juan Mountains in Colorado and was previously owned by First Solar Inc. First Solar is one of the biggest solar panel manufacturers in the world with a market cap of 9.4 billion Canadian. First Solar originally eyed the property as a potential primary tellurium source for its cadmium-telluride (CdTe) solar panels. The company then decided to leave exploration and mining to the experts and First Tellurium was able to acquire the claim. In late January 2022, Mr. Keller was on the property and took samples from various areas of the claim. They have been sent out for testing and the company expects those results within 6 to 8 weeks. In preparation of its drilling program, and based on the results of the various laboratory samples, the Company intends to implement the following: Produce an updated surface geology map of the claim. Create additional maps showing existing surface assays of tellurium, gold and silver. Illustrate cross section models to identify drilling targets, Prepare a detailed map of potential drill sites with proposed depths and angles. Begin the 2022 drill exploration program. Tellurium is a naturally occurring element found in the earth's crust, but is extremely rare. The use of tellurium (Te) in the past decade or more has been in the manufacture of thin-film photovoltaic solar panels. Tellurium, along with cadmium, is an essential component of the thin photovoltaic layer which generates the electricity from solar radiation. Increasingly used in thermoelectric devices, including solar panels. Tellurium is also used in vulcanization of rubber, percussion caps, battery plate protectors and electrical resistors.

Deer Horn Capital Inc. Provides an Update on Plans for Exploring Its Deer Horn Property in West-Central British Columbia Deer Horn Capital Inc. has provided an update on plans for exploring its 51.3-square-kilometer Deer Horn property in west-central British Columbia. The Deer Horn property hosts an NI 43-101 resource of high-grade gold, silver and tellurium as well as known zones of copper and tungsten. Exploration to date at Deer Horn has outlined several key mineral zones across a 2.4-kilometer strike length that remain open for expansion in three directions. A 2018 Technical Report and Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA), calculated on only 20% of the known mineralization, generated positive results for a small-scale, open-pit operation based on prices of $1,300 for gold, $17 for silver and $100 per kg for tellurium. Underlying much of the proposed work for 2021 is a five-year exploration permit, for which Deer Horn is awaiting provincial approval. The permit will be used for drilling and other exploration to expand the property's current NI 43-101 resource. Deer Horn also plans further exploration of copper mineralization identified in past prospecting west of the gold-silver-tellurium resource. The showings, which were revealed by a receding glacier, are indicative of a buried copper porphyry system. Sampling in this area produced results as high as 4240 ppm Cu and 6.6 g/t Ag, and the limits of the zone remain unknown. Docherty referenced the recent pledge by General Motors to make most of its vehicles electric by 2035. Electric vehicles currently contain about 180 pounds of copper, while hybrid vehicles contain approximately 85 pounds of copper. Duyuru • Nov 14
