[Ferro-Alloys.com]  Euro Manganese Announces Filing of NI 43-101 Technical Report and the JORC Code Report for the Preliminary Economic Assessment of the Chvaletice Manganese Project

Euro Manganese Inc EMN; Frankfurt:E06) and its subsidiary Mangan Chvaletice, s.r.o. (together the “Company”, “Euro Manganese” or “EMN”) is pleased to announce that the Company has now filed on SEDAR+ the “Preliminary Economic Assessment, NI 43-101 Technical Report for the Chvaletice Manganese Project in Chvaletice, Czech Republic" (the "Technical Report"), prepared in accordance with National Instrument 43-101 – Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects (“NI 43-101”). Further, the Company will lodge on the ASX Announcement Platform the "Preliminary Economic Assessment, Public Report for the Chvaletice Manganese Project in Chvaletice, Czech Republic" (the "JORC Code Report"), prepared in accordance with the Joint Ore Reserves Committee (“JORC”) Australasian Code for Reporting of Exploration Results, Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves 2012 Edition. The Technical Report and JORC Code Report will  also be available for review on the Company’s website at www.mn25.ca

Both reports were prepared by Tetra Tech Canada Inc. with an effective date of May 14, 2026. The results of the Technical Report and JORC Code Report were summarized in the Company’s news release dated May 14, 2026, titled “Euro Manganese Announces Positive Preliminary Economic Assessment” (the “Summary Announcement”). The Technical Report and JORC Code Report (together, the “PEA”) confirm the economic and technical results disclosed in the Summary Announcement and provide an update the sensitivity analysis used to respond to market conditions.

base price case unchanged:  post-tax NPV of US$492 million and post-tax IRR of 13.8%, using

Sensitivity Analysis Update

As part of the sensitivity analysis update, Tetra Tech included an upside case based on a report by Marketeye.org indicating a potential long-term HPMSM price of approximately US$3,250 to US$3,300 per tonne. The average expected price was used to highlight the upside case.

The PEA is based solely on Measured and Indicated Mineral Resources and does not include Inferred Mineral Resources. The material assumptions underpinning the production target and forecast

The table below compares the base case, potential upside price case and downside price case.The base price case remains the principal case for the Chvaletice Manganese Project (the “Project”) economics presented in the PEA. The additional upside price case is presented for sensitivity purposes only to illustrate the potential impact of a higher HPMSM price assumption on the Project economics and should not be interpreted as the Company’s base case forecast or as a prediction that the higher price assumption will be achieved.

Under the base price case, the Project shows a pre-tax NPV of US$740 million and pre-tax IRR of 16.0%, and a post-tax NPV of US$492 million and post-tax IRR of 13.8%, using an 8% discount rate.

Under the upside price case, which assumes an HPMSM price of US$3,275/t compared with US$2,888/t in the base price case, the Project shows a pre-tax NPV of US$1.13 billion and pre-tax IRR of 19.5%, and a post-tax NPV of US$798 million and post-tax IRR of 16.9%, using the same 8% discount rate. The results of each case are subject to the preliminary nature of the PEA and the cautionary statements in this news release

This news release does not report a new estimate of Mineral Resources, or a change to the mineral resource estimate in the Summary Announcement. The Company confirms that it is not aware of any new information or data that materially affects the Mineral Resource information reported in the Summary Announcement and that all material assumptions and technical parameters underpinning that estimate continue to apply.

Martina Blahova, President & CEO of Euro Manganese, commented:

“The filing of the NI 43-101 Technical Report and JORC Code Report is an important milestone for Euro Manganese and provides additional technical disclosure supporting the preliminary economic assessment for the Chvaletice Manganese Project. These reports include the current preliminary economic analysis, including the base price case and an updated sensitivity analysis, and will help inform our next stages of engineering, permitting, financing and commercial engagement. As Europe and allied markets continue to seek secure and transparent sources of critical battery materials, Chvaletice will contribute to a more diversified manganese supply chain outside of China.”

Cautionary Statement

The PEA is a high-level review of potential, is preliminary in nature and in the nature of a Scoping Study, and there is no certainty that the economics in the PEA will ever be realized. Investors are advised to read the Summary Announcement together with the Technical Report or the JORC Code Report. The PEA outcomes, including production target and forecast financial information, are based on low accuracy level technical and economic assessments that are insufficient to support the estimation of Mineral Reserves. The PEA includes estimated costs that are subject to an approximate margin error of plus or minus 35%. No Mineral Reserves have been declared for the Project.

Mineral Resources that are not Mineral Reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability. There is no certainty that the results of the PEA will be realized, that the Project will proceed to development, that any production target will be achieved, or that any Mineral Resources will be converted to Mineral Reserves. The projected process plant design, potential production profile, and project plan are conceptual in nature and additional technical studies will need to be completed in order to fully assess their viability.  The PEA results are not equivalent to, and should not be construed as, a Pre-Feasibility Study or Feasibility Study.

The PEA is based on material assumptions, including assumptions regarding product pricing, capital and operating costs, processing recoveries, infrastructure, permitting, market demand, foreign exchange rates, taxation, environmental and social matters, and the availability and timing of funding. While the Company considers that the material assumptions are based on reasonable grounds as at the date of this news release, there is no certainty that those assumptions will prove to be co

The Company does not currently have funding committed for the full development of the Project.  The Company’s funding strategy to comply with JORC requirements is set out the Company’s JORC Code Report. There is no certainty that the Company will be able to raise the required funding when needed or on terms acceptable to the Company. Any funding may be dilutive to existing shareholders or otherwise affect the value of the Company’s securities. The Company may also consider other strategic alternatives, including strategic partnerships, joint ventures, project-level financing or asset transactions, and there is no certainty that any such alternatives will be available or completed on acceptable terms. If such strategies are pursued, it could materially reduce EMN’s proportionate ownership of the Project.  Given the uncertainties involved, investors should not make any investment decisions solely on the results of the P
