Despite submitting a revised PoO in Spring 2023 and completing archaeological and biological studies in 2023-2024, including a site visit with HTNF officials in September 2024, all PoO approvals are currently on hold. The HTNF has not provided a timeline for the completion of the new safety management plan.

Nonostante la presentazione di un PoO rivisto nella primavera del 2023 e il completamento di studi archeologici e biologici nel 2023-2024, inclusa una visita del sito con funzionari dell'HTNF a settembre 2024, tutte le approvazioni del PoO sono attualmente sospese. L'HTNF non ha fornito una tempistica per il completamento del nuovo piano di gestione della sicurezza.

Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - December 6, 2024) - Kraken Energy Corp. (CSE: UUSA) (OTCQB: UUSAF) (FSE: F2C) (the "Company" or "Kraken") is pleased to provide an update on the drill permit application for the Apex Property.

Kraken Energy Corp. Adjusts Plans Following US Forest Service Review Update

Kraken's Apex Project is facing an unexpected delay following a decision by the Humboldt-Toiyabe National Forest (the "HTNF" or the "US Forest Service") to introduce a forest-wide Uranium Safety Management Plan before further Plan of Operations ("PoO") approvals. The Company submitted a revised PoO in Spring 2023, carried out archaeological and biological studies in 2023-2024, and participated in a site visit with HTNF officials in September 2024 as part of the approval process.

The HTNF had previously indicated it would provide comments on the Company's PoO after the site visit. However, in a recent conversation with HTNF officials, the Company learned that all PoO approvals are currently on hold pending the development and approval of the new safety management plan. While the HTNF has not released a completion timeline for this plan, the Company remains committed to aligning its operations with the US Forest Service's evolving requirements.

"We appreciate the US Forest Service's efforts to ensure safety and environmental integrity in public lands management," said Brian Goss, Interim CEO of Kraken "Although this adjustment presents new challenges for our timeline, we are confident that collaboration with the HTNF will allow us to move forward in a way that supports shared goals of responsible resource development."

Kraken will continue to monitor the progress of the US Forest Service's new plan and explore opportunities to work proactively with the agency. In the meantime, the company remains focused on preparing its operations to meet the highest safety and environmental standards.
