The proceeds will be used to advance exploration at the company's flagship Arapaima Lithium Project in Minas Gerais, Brazil's Lithium Valley, as well as for general working capital and corporate purposes. The company has filed an amended offering document under the Listed Issuer Financing Exemption, available on SEDAR+ and the company's website.

Spark Energy Minerals (SPARF) has reported promising rare earth element (REE) surface sampling results from its Caladão Target within the 64,352-hectare Arapaima Project in Brazil's Lithium Valley. The exploration revealed:

- Stream sediment samples showed a peak value of 6,417ppm Total Rare Earth Oxides (TREO), with 11 samples exceeding 1,000ppm TREO - Soil samples demonstrated a peak value of 3,041ppm TREO, with 14 samples above 1,000ppm TREO - Anomalous Gallium values with a peak of 94.07ppm Ga2O3 - The 4,000-hectare Caladão Target is contiguous with Axel REE Limited's project

The company plans to accelerate REE exploration alongside advancing three primary lithium targets, with drill testing planned for later in 2025.

Spark Energy Minerals (SPARF) has announced significant lithium findings at its newly identified 'Cruzeta' target within the Arapaima Lithium Project in Brazil's Lithium Valley. Rock-chip sampling revealed the company's highest lithium anomalism to date, with values up to 1,397 ppm, along with notable pathfinder elements including Tantalum, Niobium, Tin, Cesium, and Gallium.

The discovery features low Potassium/Rubidium (K/Rb) ratios as low as 23.84, indicating highly evolved and fractionated LCT pegmatites. The company has identified 123 pegmatite occurrences within 13 pegmatite trends over a 31km strike across their 64,359 Ha tenement package. Three high-priority lithium targets (Agua Branca, Grota do Maquém, and Cruzeta) and one rare earth elements target (Caladão) have been mapped for detailed exploration.

Spark Energy Minerals (SPARF) has announced significant exploration results from its Arapaima Lithium Project in Brazil's Lithium Valley. The company's stream sediment sampling program revealed 17 out of 24 sub-drainages showing anomalous lithium (80-191 ppm) and pathfinder elements.

Key findings include:

• 122 individual pegmatite occurrences mapped within 13 pegmatite trends over 31km strike
• Two priority lithium targets identified: Grota do Maquém and Água Branca
• New REE target (Caladão Target) discovered with peak values of 2,458ppm TREO in stream sediment and 3,041ppm TREO in soil samples
• 66 old artisanal mine workings identified for follow-up

The company has completed 397 samples collected to date, with 263 results reported and 71 samples awaiting laboratory analysis. Exploration continues across the 64,359-hectare tenement package, with 61 sub-drainage basins remaining to be sampled.

Spark Energy Minerals (CSE: SPRK) (OTC: SPARF) has announced new results from 16 samples at its Arapaima Lithium Project in Brazil's Lithium Valley. The company has mapped 109 individual pegmatite occurrences within 11 pegmatite trends spanning over 31km strike.

Key findings include stream sediment samples showing anomalous lithium levels, particularly in Target 1 (46 ppm Li, 357 ppm Rb) and Target 5 (142 ppm Li, 271 ppm Rb). The company has identified 59 old artisanal mining sites with pegmatite occurrences for further exploration.

Spark has collected over 250 samples to date, with results received for 123 samples and 56 more pending. The company is progressing toward drill testing in Q2 2025. Despite relatively low surface lithium concentrations, the company notes this is typical in tropical weathered systems and may indicate higher-grade mineralization at depth.
