Calgary, Alberta--(Newsfile Corp. - November 21, 2024) - Canadian Critical Minerals Inc. (TSXV: CCMI) (OTCQB: RIINF) ("CCMI" or the "Company") is pleased to report record revenues for the Company from the sale of stockpiled copper, gold and silver mineralized material at the Bull River Mine ("BRM") project near Cranbrook, BC. During the month of October 2024, the Company trucked 1,064 dry metric tonnes ("dmt") of sorted mineralized material to New Afton and the Company received a provisional payment of approximately USD$378,000 for the October 2024 shipments. The mineralized material sent to New Afton graded 4.67% Cu, 0.74 g/t Au and 44.7 g/t Ag.

As of October 5th, 2024, the contractor responsible for crushing and screening activities completed crushing and screening of all mineralized material from the original 180,000 tonne surface stockpile and has since demobilized from the mine site. To-date the Company has shipped approximately 5,300 tonnes of mineralized material to New Afton under the Ore Purchase Agreement ("OPA"). Shipped material includes 4,100 tonnes of sorted material and 1,200 tonnes of unsorted fines. At October month-end, the Company had approximately 73,000 tonnes of coarse material that is available for sorting through the Steinert KSS 100 ore sorter prior to shipping to New Afton. There are now approximately 42,000 tonnes of rejects from the ore sorting process that are being stockpiled on surface as an initial feed for the BRM mill. Rejects continue to grade between 0.4% Cu and 1.0% Cu. Hence all rejects can be economically processed in future at the BRM once the Company has received permission to restart the mill. Additionally, the Company has stockpiled approximately 60,000 tonnes of fine material that is too fine to be sent to the sorter. Fine material is expected to grade at 1.39% copper, 0.29 g/t gold and 11 g/t silver representing the average run of mine material in the original surface stockpile. The cut off grade ("COG") for milling copper mineralized material at the BRM that is already on surface is 0.4% Cu. Hence both the rejects and fines have sufficiently high enough grade to provide an economic feed to the BRM mill in future. Should metal prices continue to improve, the Company may send a portion of the fines to New Afton to generate additional revenues in the near term.

Ian Berzins, President and CEO of CCMI commented, "The provisional payment of USD$378,000 for October 2024 represents the highest monthly revenue received to-date under the Ore Purchase Agreement with New Afton, bettering the June 2024 total of USD$246,000 in revenues. Some of the revenues from the OPA will be used in support of the permit application to restart the BRM in a phased approach wherein the Company plans to mill the coarse rejects and fines at the BRM property followed by resuming mining in the underground."
