SINGAPORE, May 1, 2026 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Choosing from the many Credit Cards available in Singapore can feel overwhelming, especially when each option highlights different rewards, fees, and benefits. A card that aligns with your lifestyle can help you manage expenses better while offering value through rewards, convenience, and flexibility. Whether your spending leans towards dining, travel, shopping, or daily essentials, understanding a few key factors can help narrow down choices that match how you live and spend.Here are some important factors that can help you evaluate Credit Cards based on real lifestyle needs rather than just promotional offers.1. Understand your monthly spending patternsBefore comparing Credit Cards, it can help to look closely at where your money usually goes each month. Some Singaporeans may opt to spend on dining and food delivery, while others may prioritise groceries, transport, or online shopping. Identifying these patterns can help you shortlist Credit Cards that reward the categories you use most often. This approach can make rewards feel more relevant, rather than spread across benefits you rarely use.2. Evaluate rewards structure and earning ratesCredit Cards offer rewards in different forms, such as cashback, reward points, or air miles, and each structure suits different spending habits. Cashback Cards may appeal to those who prefer straightforward savings, such as earning rebates on eligible categories, often capped at a monthly limit. Rewards or miles cards may suit frequent travellers or shoppers who enjoy redeeming points later.It's also worth checking the base earn rate, which is what you earn on regular spending, and the bonus earn rates offered for certain categories like dining, travel, or online shopping. Many cards also set bonus caps, meaning the higher rewards only apply up to a certain amount of spending each month. Understanding these details can help you see how much you can realistically earn based on your usual spending.3. Consider annual fees versus actual benefitsAnnual fees for Credit Cards in Singapore can range from around SGD 150 to over SGD 500. Some premium cards offer perks such as lounge access, dining privileges, or travel insurance. However, these additional benefits provide better value if you use them often enough to offset the higher fee. Many cards also provide fee waivers for the first year, which can help users test whether the card fits their lifestyle. Comparing the annual fee against how realistically you will use the perks can help determine whether the overall value feels balanced for your spending habits.4. Assess eligibility and income requirementsIn Singapore, most Credit Cards have minimum annual income requirements, usually starting from SGD 30,000 for citizens and permanent residents, and higher for foreigners. Premium cards may require annual incomes of SGD 120,000 or more. Understanding eligibility early can help avoid unnecessary applications and credit checks. Choosing a card aligned with your income range can also help ensure smoother approval and manageable credit limits that fit comfortably within your financial situation.5. Review interest rates and repayment flexibilityWhile Credit Cards can offer convenience and rewards, interest rates in Singapore often range between 25% and 28% per annum if balances are not paid in full. Some cards offer repayment features, such as instalment plans that split larger purchases into smaller monthly payments, or balance transfer options that can help consolidate existing credit card outstanding balances at a lower interest rate for a promotional period. Looking at repayment features, interest calculations, and payment flexibility can help support responsible usage, especially during months with higher expenses or unexpected costs.6. Check overseas usage and foreign currency feesFor those who travel or shop internationally, foreign currency transaction fees are an important consideration. Most Credit Cards in Singapore charge around 3.25% on overseas transactions. Some travel-focused cards may offer lower fees or even 0% FX fees on eligible transactions, while others may provide higher miles earn rates for foreign spend. Evaluating how often international spending occurs can help decide whether such features can add value or if a general-purpose card works just as well.Final thoughtsChoosing the right Credit Card is less about chasing the biggest offer and more about finding a match for your lifestyle and spending habits. By considering rewards, fees, perks, and usability through a practical lens, Credit Cards can become a supportive financial tool rather than a confusing product. Taking time to compare options thoughtfully can help ensure the card you select continues to add value as your lifestyle evolves.Disclaimer: This content is published by iQuanti Singapore Pte.

MOSCOW, May 1, 2026 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - The 2nd Open Dialogue "The Future of the World: A New Platform for Global Growth" took place in Russia, bringing together experts and young researchers from more than 40 countries who proposed ideas on the development of the economy, technology, education, and the environment. The key unifying principle of the event was a focus on people, international cooperation, and the search for new models of global growth through dialogue and the practical implementation of ideas. The large-scale three-day program at the Russia National Centre has concluded, combining expert discussions, presentations by authors of the best essays from around the world, and informal communication with experts.According to the official remarks, the Open Dialogue has achieved a global footprint that covers the entire planet."Experts, business leaders, and researchers from 120 countries took part in the essay and creative works competition, including representatives from Asia, Africa, the Middle East, Europe, Australia, North and South America. All authors and researchers, with diverse experiences and perspectives, were united by a strong and bold idea: to form a shared understanding of the future — the future of a world entering an era of profound structural change. It is evident that no country can develop in isolation, at the expense of other states or to their detriment. Furthermore, modern global challenges require a joint response and collective efforts. This means that the model of global development will be sustainable and fair only if it is based on the principles of equality and mutual respect, and takes into account the interests of all countries," the honorary guest of the event stated.According to the Russian leader, a multipolar architecture of global development is being formed before our eyes. Within it, an important role is played by states that understand and value national sovereignty.The results of the large-scale event were summarized by Russian economist Maxim Oreshkin: "Russia, in a number of areas, is an advanced country in terms of the development of digital platform solutions. Our approach is one of joint development. When Russian digital platforms enter other countries' markets, they bring data localization, local partner involvement, training for local personnel, and the development of their own competencies in platform solution development. Russia comes to develop together, not to collect colonial rent from countries that lack access to technological solutions. We are in favor of developing together."Maxim Oreshkin noted that the reach of the Open Dialogue will continue to grow each year. According to him, significant attention is being paid to the stage of implementing the ideas proposed in the essays. A mentorship format has been introduced — Russian businesses and international companies are beginning to work with essayists, involve them in their projects, and help bring their ideas to life.At the 2nd Open Dialogue, the best essay authors were identified in four areas: "Investing in People," "Investing in Connectivity," "Investing in Technology," and "Investing in the Environment."The winner in the "Investing in Technology" track was Aya Arfaoui, a student of Mohammed V University in Rabat, Morocco. She raised the issue of the digital sovereignty of developing countries. According to her, international institutions do not provide sufficient influence in regulating the digital space.Solomon Gardie, a postgraduate student at Addis Ababa University in Ethiopia, became the winner in the "Investing in Connectivity" track. His essay focused on connectivity and the mobility of sovereign data. He proposed a system in which data is processed and anonymized before cross-border transfer, and only in this form can it be used for the common good. He also noted that, within cooperation in the BRICS+ framework, one of the first areas could be healthcare, particularly epidemiological monitoring and disease control.In the "Investing in the Environment" track, the winner was Soumya Bhowmick, a research fellow at the Observer Research Foundation (India). In his presentation, he stated that for almost 100 years, the world has focused on measuring GDP, which does not reflect a country's real wealth.The winner of the "Investing in People" track was Lubinda Haabazoka from Zambia. In his speech, he noted that for real convergence among countries of the Global South, not only declarations of multipolarity are needed, but also practical changes in key systems of interaction — primarily in education, which directly affects opportunities for cooperation and knowledge exchange.The future should be built around the individual, their health, agency, and a long, meaningful life, rather than around technologies and outdated systems, believes Dr. Selina Neri, co-founder, CEO, and dean of Future Readiness Academy (UAE), and an expert of the 2nd Open Dialogue in the "Investing in People" track. According to her, this requires new approaches to education, work, and technology development that focus on human flourishing, sovereignty, and the practical implementation of ideas rather than copying ineffective models.More than 1,600 authors from all continents submitted their works to participate in the 2nd Open Dialogue. Seventy-five essay authors hold academic degrees. The conclusions drawn from the discussions will be reviewed at the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum and will be reflected in its business program. Essayists and experts will also be engaged in activities within the BRICS platform and involved in preparations for the Russia–Africa Summit.Social LinksTelegram: https://t.me/gowithRussiaMedia ContactsBrand: Russia National CentreContact: Media teamEmail: pressa@russia.ruWebsite: https://en.russia.ru Copyright 2026 ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com.

Vancouver, British Columbia--(ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com - April 30, 2026) - Founders Metals Inc. (TSXV: FDR) (OTCQX: FDMIF) (FSE: 9DL0) ("Founders" or the "Company") reports high-grade gold results from the Lower Antino Target at its Antino Gold Project ("Antino" or the "Project") in southeastern Suriname (Figure 1). Results include 6.0 metres (m) of 12.95 grams per tonne (g/t) gold (Au) - a significant high-grade intercept at Lower Antino - while continued systematic drilling expands the mineralized system along strike.Colin Padget, President & CEO, commented, "The 6.0 metres of 12.95 g/t gold in LA060 is an important result for Lower Antino. While the system has consistently delivered broad, lower-grade mineralization, this intercept suggests the presence of a higher-grade component - a characteristic we have been actively testing for. Additional drilling in this release continues to grow the mineralized extent of Lower Antino, and we will incorporate these results into our geological models to better define the geometry and continuity of mineralization as the program advances."HighlightsHigh-grade drill-confirmed intercept near surface at Lower Antino confirms high-grade component within the tonalite-hosted gold system:6.0 m of 12.95 g/t Au from 55.0 m (LA060)Intercept extends mineralization approximately 250 m west of the nearest previous drillingContinued systematic drilling expands the mineralized system with wide intercepts along strike:Drilling to the east confirms continued growth of the mineralized system (LA055, LA056) (Figure 2)200 m step-out to the south intersects intrusion-hosted mineralization with 18.0 m of 0.68 g/t Au from 59.1 m (LA054)Geological DiscussionThe westernmost hole in this release, LA060, intersected 6.0 m of 12.95 g/t Au from 55.0 m depth, delivering the highest-grade composite interval returned from Lower Antino drilling to date and extending mineralization approximately 250 m to the west. This result confirms the presence of a high-grade shear-related component within the broader tonalite-hosted gold system, consistent with previously reported historical high-grade channel and grab sample results, but that had not yet been confirmed by drilling.Systematic step-out drilling to the east and south continues to expand the mineralized footprint. Holes LA055 and LA056 confirm broad, consistent gold mineralization along strike to the east, while LA054 intersected gold mineralization in a 200 m step-out to the south. Sheared and altered tonalite intrusions have been observed in multiple holes with assays pending between known mineralized corridors. Holes LA051 and LA052, the farthest south holes at Lower Antino to date, are interpreted to have been drilled east of the mineralized tonalite bodies.Lower Antino is one of two Advanced Targets within Founders' 102,360-hectare contiguous land package, which hosts eight drill-tested gold targets across the 55 km long Antino concession. The Company currently has four diamond drill rigs operating at Antino, with two rigs at Antino North, one at Upper Antino, and one at Lower Antino, with results pending at all locations. The Company will continue to systematically advance its highest-priority targets across the district.Figure 1: Antino Gold Project Property MapTo view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/7574/295168_be3d3fa8d4df5acc_001full.jpgFigure 2: Lower Antino Plan MapTo view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/7574/295168_be3d3fa8d4df5acc_002full.jpgTable 1: Drill Hole Assay ResultsDrillholeFrom (m)To (m)Interval (m)Au (g/t)LA051NSALA052NSALA053NSALA05459.1077.1018.000.68incl.59.1062.103.002.70and243.00246.003.001.71LA0550.0056.1056.100.28incl.33.6042.609.001.13and102.00154.0052.000.36and162.00213.0051.000.36and264.00274.0010.000.30LA0560.0017.1017.100.38and102.00117.0015.000.27and218.00224.006.000.21and241.00247.006.000.46LA057118.00127.009.000.37and308.00316.008.000.40LA058159.00165.006.000.29LA0590.008.108.100.24and59.0067.008.000.20and124.00128.004.000.42LA06055.0061.006.0012.95incl.56.0059.003.0025.70and128.00132.004.002.03 *Intervals are down-hole depths.

PHILADELPHIA, PA, Apr 30, 2026 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Datavault AI Inc. ("Datavault AI" or the "Company") (NASDAQ:DVLT), a provider of data monetization, credentialing, digital engagement, and real-world asset ("RWA") tokenization technologies, and King Mining Capital ("King Mining Capital") today announced that they have entered into a agreement for a multi-component strategic transaction that will combine a Datavault AI equity investment in King Mining Capital, a Datavault AI stock-funded purchase of 20,000 ounces of physical gold bullion, and the launch of a $150 million-plus GoldVault™ tokenization program backed by King Mining Capital's high-grade gold resources.Direct Equity, Physical Bullion, and Stock-Funded ConsiderationSubject to entering into a definitive agreement with King Mining Capital, Datavault AI plans to receive a 5% equity interest in King Mining Capital at the closing of the transactions contemplated by the agreement, together with a warrant to acquire an additional 5% equity interest in King Mining Capital upon completion of the GoldVault™ tokenization program. Datavault AI anticipates it will also have the right to acquire 20,000 ounces of physical gold bullion from King Mining Capital for delivery within 24 months [of signing of a definitive agreement], payable in Datavault AI common stock at a 30% discount to prevailing market gold prices. Based on current spot pricing and Datavault AI's internal analysis, the bullion acquisition is projected to generate approximately $40 million in profit.[1] The structure aligns Datavault AI directly with the long-term performance of King Mining Capital's underlying mineral assets while expanding the Company's strategic balance-sheet exposure to U.S.-aligned precious metals.$150 Million+ GoldVault™ Tokenization ProgramThe GoldVault™ program will deploy Datavault AI's patented Information Data Exchange®, DataScore®, and DataValue® blockchain platform to mint $150 million or more in digital tokens, each representing pro-rata digital ownership in premium in-ground and refined gold assets with strong American mining ties. Pricing will track the COMEX gold benchmark on a per-ounce basis. Tokens will be initially issued at a discount to prevailing spot gold market valuations, providing holders with a built-in value margin at issuance. Token holders will additionally participate in a royalty stream tied to ongoing King Mining Capital's production, generating recurring economic upside beyond underlying metal price appreciation. The program is targeted for launch by the third quarter of fiscal 2026, making tokenized American-aligned gold accessible to global investors.Executive StatementsNathaniel T. Bradley, CEO of Datavault AI, said, "This King Mining Capital transaction is the most fully integrated RWA structure Datavault AI has executed to date. We are taking a direct equity position in the miner, locking in 20,000 ounces of physical bullion at a meaningful discount to spot, and giving GoldVault™ token holders a royalty stream tied to actual production. That alignment between issuer, miner, and investor is what positions our patented platform as the model for compliant tokenization of strategic natural resources."Jeffrey Katz, Managing Principal of King Mining Capital LLC, added, "Partnering with Datavault AI is a game-changer for King Mining Capital. It validates our high-quality gold assets, provides immediate access to global digital capital markets, and creates exciting new liquidity and upside for our stakeholders. Together, we're advancing production and development plans that will deliver real value from these exceptional resources while embracing the future of tokenized mining assets."Platform ArchitectureIt is anticipated that the tokenized assets will utilize Datavault AI's proprietary smart-contract technology for ownership verification, AI-driven valuation, and revenue participation rights linked to future commercial gold production.Market OpportunityGold is in a powerful structural bull market. Central banks continue aggressive accumulation as a hedge against currency diversification and geopolitical risk, while investor demand surges amid economic uncertainty. Mine supply remains constrained and slow to respond, with global production growth expected to stay modest in 2026. Analysts project gold prices could reach $4,900-$5,500/oz by year-end 2026 (perJ.P. Morgan Global Research, December 2025), driven by sustained official sector buying (potentially 800+ tonnes annually) and robust investment flows (perWorld Gold Council, Gold Demand Trends Full Year 2025). Tokenizing high-quality gold resources positions investors at the intersection of physical scarcity and digital liquidity.Expanding Strategic Minerals Tokenization PortfolioThe King Mining Capital transaction marks the latest high-impact milestone in Datavault AI's rapid expansion into tokenized critical minerals and precious metals. It follows the Company's recent $100 million Coppercoin™ program with Coppercore Inc. (announced March 31, 2026) for high-grade copper resources and the $78.2 million initiative with American Strategic Minerals Inc. for U.S.-mined antimony, gold, copper, and silver (announced March 26, 2026). These collaborations showcase Datavault AI's systematic build-out of a diversified RWA portfolio - spanning industrial metals essential for AI infrastructure and electrification (copper) to defense-critical materials (antimony) and now premium precious metals (gold). The Company believes that its platform is fast becoming the industry benchmark for bridging high-value mineral assets with global digital capital markets.About King Mining Capital LLC.King Mining Capital is a North American-based advisory and investment company focused on the investment, acquisition, and development of mineral exploration and mining companies.About Datavault AIDatavault AI™ (NASDAQ:DVLT) is a pioneer in AI-driven data experiences, valuation, and monetization of assets in the Web 3.0 environment.

Rouyn-Noranda, Quebec--(ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com - April 30, 2026) - Radisson Mining Resources Inc. (TSXV: RDS) (OTCQX: RMRDF) ("Radisson" or the "Company") is pleased to announce assay results from sixteen new drill holes completed at its 100%-owned O'Brien Gold Project ("O'Brien" or the "Project") located in the Abitibi region of Québec. Of note, today's results include significant intercepts of high-grade gold in the new pilot hole OB-26-384 at 1.9 kilometres vertical depth, the deepest hole ever drilled at the Project. These results are the latest from the Company's ongoing 140,000-metre step-out drill program and extend the scope of gold mineralization beyond the Company's recent updated March 2026 Mineral Resource Estimate. Highlights include (summarized below, and in Figure 1):OB-26-384, the deepest hole ever drilled at the O'Brien Gold Project, intersected 4.54 grams per tonne ("g/t") gold ("Au") over 12.0 metres (core length) including 16.85 g/t Au over 1.0 metre and including 12.87 g/t Au over 1.0 metre and 7.21 g/t Au over 2.0 metres including 9.91 g/t Au over 1.0 metre;OB-25-378W2 intersected 5.96 g/t Au over 6.9 metres including 8.77 g/t Au over 3.7 metres and 11.65 g/t Au over 1.5 metres and 8.77 g/t Au over 1.3 metres;OB-26-385W1 intersected 20.39 g/t Au over 1.5 metres and 16.61 g/t Au over 1.5 metres;OB-26-385 intersected 4.13 g/t Au over 4.7 metres including 15.29 g/t Au over 1.0 metre and 5.55 g/t Au over 1.2 metres;Matt Manson, President and CEO: "Since late 2024 we have been engaged in an aggressive 140,000-metre program of step-out drilling at the O'Brien Gold Project with the objective of testing the full scope of mineralization down to a 2-kilometre floor. Drill results reported through the course of 2025 and early 2026 confirmed the presence of an increasingly significant, high-grade gold vein system beneath the historic O'Brien mine workings and below the modern mineral resource area. On March 2nd we published an interim update to the Project's Mineral Resource Estimate with a meaningful 82% increase in Inferred Mineral Resources based on the drilling completed to that date. Now, we are reporting additional high-grade results that extend the scope of mineralization further still. The headline result is from new pilot hole OB-26-384, the deepest drill hole ever completed at the Project, which has returned multiple high-grade intercepts of gold in classic vein settings at 1,900 metres vertical depth, a full 350 metres below the current limit of mineral resources in this area (Figure 1). Overall, seven out of seven holes completed in the central "O'Brien" and "East O'Brien" target areas have returned intercepts with thicknesses and gold grades consistent with the Project's mineral resources, giving an overall success rate of 79% for the step-out drilling completed to date. A fence of nine shallow holes in the lower-priority "Thompson-Cadillac" area have confirmed the extension of the Project's mineralizing system west of the historic mine, albeit at lower average grades. Looking forward, seven drill rigs are active at the Project, with twenty-two additional holes completed or in progress, thirteen of which have returned visible gold intercepts."Figure 1: Longitudinal Vertical Section and Plan View of Gold Vein Mineralization and Mineral Resources at the O'Brien Gold Project, with Today's Drill Holes IllustratedTo view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/10977/295118_9c85cad7c404bb29_001full.jpgTable 1: Assay Results from Select Drill Holes To view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/10977/295118_9c85cad7c404bb29_002full.jpgNotes on Calculation of Drill Intercepts:The O'Brien Gold Project Mineral Resource Estimate effective January 31, 2026 ("MRE") utilizes a 2.20 g/t Au bottom cutoff, a US$2,500 gold price, a minimum mining width of 1.2 metres, and a 60 g/t Au upper cap on individual assays. Intercepts presented in Table 1 are calculated with a 3.00 g/t Au bottom cut-off. Sample grades are uncapped. True widths, based on depth of intercept and drill hole inclination, are estimated to be 30-80% of core length. Table 3 presents additional drill intercepts calculated with a 1.00 g/t bottom cut-off over a minimum 1.0 metre core length so as to illustrate the frequency and continuity of mineralized intervals within which high-grade gold veins at O'Brien are developed. Drill holes OB-26-388 and 389 at Thompson-Cadillac did not return any intercepts averaging above 1.00 g/t Au. Lithology Codes: PON-S3: Pontiac Sediments; V3-S, V3-N, V3-CEN: Basalt-South, North, Central; S1P, S3P: Conglomerate; POR-S, POR-N: Porphyry South, North; TX: Crystal Tuff; ZFLLC: Larder Lake-Cadillac Fault ZoneStep-Out Drilling at O'BrienSince the end of 2024, Radisson has been pursuing a program of broad step-outs beneath the historic O'Brien Gold mine and the existing mineral resources designed to test the extent of mineralization at the Project. This drilling is accomplished with pilot holes followed by wedges and directional drilling to maximize drill efficiency. In October 2025, Radisson announced the expansion of the step-out drill program to 140,000 metres employing an eventual eight drill rigs (see Radisson news release dated October 16, 2025). Since this program began, 79% of completed drill holes have intersected gold mineralization with grades and core-lengths consistent with the Project's Mineral Resources, including the results published today (Table 2). Radisson publishes the results of all completed drill holes.Figure 2: Vertical Section through "Trend #1 with Pilot Hole OB-26-384 at 1.9 kilometres Vertical DepthTo view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/10977/295118_9c85cad7c404bb29_003full.jpgThe origin of the step-out drill program was the deep pilot hole OB-24-337, which was the first exploration drill hole located below the former mine workings since mining ended in 1957. This hole intersected 31.24 g/t Au over 8.0 metres, including 242.0 g/t Au over 1.0 metre at approximately 1,500 metres vertical depth (see Radisson news release dated December 16, 2024). Fifteen wedge branches were completed from OB-24-337 delineating up to eight gold-bearing veins over a 250-metre x 700-metre area (see Radisson news release dated February 12, 2026), contributing significant new mineral resources in the March 2026 update. Pilot hole OB-26-384, which is highlighted in today's news release, is the deepest hole ever drilled at the O'Brien Gold Project and has been positioned to test the downward plunge of mineralization in "Trend #1" (Figures 1 and 2). This hole returned (in core lengths) 4.54 g/t Au over 12.0 metres including 16.85 g/t Au over 1.0 metre and also including 12.87 g/t Au over 1.0 metre at 1,900 metres vertical depth, 350 metres beneath the base of the mineral resource area above and approaching the 2-kilometre exploration floor. The observed gold mineralization is within characteristic quartz-sulphide-gold veins and alteration envelops developed within the conglomerate and porphyry units of the Piché Group, consistent with the mineralization observed at higher elevations (Figure 2). This represents a significant potential expansion in the scope of mineralization at the Project. Wedge branches from this new pilot hole are ongoing.Today's results also include the first assays from pilot hole OB-26-385 and its first wedge branch (385W1) drilled between the OB-24-337 drill pattern and the base of the historic workings at approximately 1,100 metres vertical depth, and the first wedge branches from pilot hole OB-25-378 (378W1 and 378W2) drilled below the 337 pattern at approximately 1,700 metres vertical depth (Figure 1). All of these holes have returned multiple intercepts with high grades over characteristic vein intervals, such as (in core lengths) 20.39 g/t Au over 1.5 metres, 16.61 g/t Au over 1.5 metres, 4.13 g/t Au over 4.7 metres including 15.29 g/t Au over 1.0 metres, 11.65 g/t Au over 1.5 metres and 5.96 g/t Au over 6.9 metres including 8.77 g/t Au over 3.7 metres. These results demonstrate the up-dip and down-dip continuity of this newly delineated vein system, and additional wedge branches in these areas are also ongoing.Table 2: Drill Results Published for the O'Brien Gold Project since December 2024Date of PublicationTotal Number of Drill HolesDrill Holes with Intercepts >+3g/tSuccess Rate (%)April 30th, 2026-O'Brien77100%April 30th, 2026-Thompson-Cadillac9222%January 27th, 202677100%January 6th, 20266583%October 28th 2025151387%September 8th, 2025151387%July 16th, 2025141179%April 2nd, 202533100%February 26th, 2025201575%December 16th, 202411100%Total977779% Gold Mineralization at O'BrienGold mineralizing quartz-sulphide veins at O'Brien occur within a thin band of interlayered mafic volcanic rocks, conglomerates, and porphyritic andesitic sills of the Piché Group occurring in contact with the east-west oriented Larder Lake-Cadillac Break ("LLCB"). Gold, along with pyrite and arsenopyrite, is typically associated with shearing and a pervasive biotite alteration, and developed within multiple Piché Group lithologies and, occasionally, the hanging-wall Pontiac and footwall Cadillac meta-sedimentary rocks.As mapped at the historic O'Brien mine, and now replicated in the modern drilling, individual veins are generally narrow, ranging from several centimetres up to several metres in thickness and are associated with broader, mineralized alteration envelopes. Multiple veins occur sub-parallel to each other, as well as sub-parallel to the Piché lithologies and the LLCB. Individual veins have well-established lateral continuity, with steeply plunging grade shoots developed over significant lengths. Based on the historic data available, it is clear that the former mine was "high-graded", with mining focussed on a main central stope and parallel veins identified but left undeveloped.The historic O'Brien mine produced over half a million ounces of gold from such veins and shoots at an average grade exceeding 15 g/t Au and over a vertical extent of at least 1,000 metres. Modern exploration has focussed on delineating well developed vein mineralization to the east of the historic mine, with additional high-grade shoots becoming evident in the exploration data over what has been described as a series of repeating trends (Trend #s 0 to 5).QA/QCAll drill cores in this campaign are NQ in size. Assays were completed on sawn half-cores, with the second half kept for future reference. Drill core samples are sent to MSALABS's analytical laboratory located in Val-d'Or, Québec, for preparation and gold analysis. The entire sample is dried and crushed (70% passing a 2-millimeter sieve) and split to 500 g. The analysis for gold is performed on an approximately 500 g aliquot using Chrysos PhotonAssay™ technology. Mineralized zones containing visible gold were analyzed to extinction whereby the entire sample is split into multiple jars, each is analysed by PhotonAssay, and the average of the results is used for reporting. Standard reference materials, blank samples and duplicates were inserted for quality assurance and quality control.MSALABS operates under ISO/IEC 17025 accreditation, utilizing industry-standard QA/QC frameworks for gold analysis. By integrating blanks, duplicates, and CRMs into their workflows, the laboratory adheres to established benchmarks that ensure precise, reliable, and verifiable results.QP DisclosureDisclosure of a scientific or technical nature in this news release was prepared under the supervision of Mr. Richard Nieminen, P.Geo, (QC), a geological consultant for Radisson and a Qualified Person for purposes of NI 43-101.

The Asian Licensing Conference brought together some 20 international licensing experts to explore key industry topics, including global licensing trends and the industry outlook, intellectual property (IP) licensing strategies for overseas expansion, sports licensing, location-based entertainment, food and beverage licensing, and creative marketing strategies. The two events served as cross-regional and cross-sectoral business expansion platforms across multiple categories, creating global business opportunities for participants and promoting regional IP trade development.Jenny Koo, Deputy Executive Director of the HKTDC, said: “Under the support of the national 15th Five-Year Plan, Hong Kong continues to deepen its role as a regional IP trading hub. As one of Asia’s most mature licensing markets, the city boasts a well-established industry ecosystem, with the licensing sector serving as a core engine for IP trade. We are pleased to see licensing applications expanding from traditional character merchandising to cover location-based entertainment, food and beverage, e-commerce and a host of other fields, forming a complete licensing industry chain that helps to create more business opportunities for the industry globally.”In response to the rapid development and growing popularity of e-commerce, this year’s Licensing Show introduced the new IP and e-Commerce Support Services Zone. In collaboration with the E-commerce Association of Hong Kong, Hong Kong eCommerce Supply Chain Association and the Hong Kong Federation of E-Commerce, the zone hosted multiple workshops on building online shops, digital marketing and livestream commerce, helping small and medium-size enterprises (SMEs) capitalise on e-commerce to sell their IP products globally.Among the participants was Digitify Online Growth, an e-commerce platform specialising in digital marketing and e-commerce operation solutions. Kay Leung from the company said: “The greatest value of this new dedicated zone lies in ‘promotion’ and ‘education’. In the current economic climate, industries across different sectors are actively seeking new avenues to expand their business. This zone serves as an essential foundation for SMEs, raising awareness of how to effectively leverage e-commerce as a springboard to promote their brands and sell their IP products to the global market.” Prof. Charles Ng from another exhibitor, StarLite IPC Limited, said: “This year's Licensing Show has truly played the role of an ‘all-rounded accelerator’ in driving industry growth. During this critical period of economic recovery in the Asian market, the show has successfully brought together leading licensors, licensing agents and brand owners from around the world, providing an efficient business matchmaking platform for IP licensing-focused enterprises like ours."Commenting on the impact of the new IP and e-Commerce Support Services Zone, Jenny Koo said: “This aligns well with the direction of the Hong Kong SAR Government’s policy to enhance the competitiveness of Hong Kong SMEs in relation to cross-border e-commerce. The HKTDC will continue to provide an ideal platform for the global licensing industry to showcase more diversified brand licensing projects, strengthening Hong Kong's position as an international licensing hub.”The Licensing Show continued to feature the DLAB Hong Kong Pavilion, bringing together nearly 40 exhibitors to showcase multiple Hong Kong original brands and IPs. Among them, local designer Kirsten Lie presented her original IPs and secured collaboration opportunities with overseas shopping malls. She said: “The current negotiations are highly encouraging, with enthusiastic responses all around. We are now in serious discussions with two overseas shopping malls and will meet with their senior management next week to move the partnership forward.” Another participating designer, James Ho, said “This year's Licensing Show provides an excellent brand promotion platform for local designers, enabling us to reach and engage with potential partners from diverse sectors on a broad scale.” In addition, this year’s Hong Kong Licensing Force Showcase featured The Hang Seng University of Hong Kong, Hong Kong Baptist University and The Hong Kong Polytechnic University, with the newly participating Hong Kong Design Institute joining to showcase creative designs by emerging local talents.Key topics at this year’s Asian Licensing Conference included how non-traditional toy IPs resonate with young consumers in the emotional economy along with new development models for food and beverage licensing. George Wood, Managing Director of The Luna Entertainment Group, shared on location-based entertainment during the session, saying: “We learned that one of the non-negotiables has to do is with the depth of affection, which is often related to the number of hours the audience has spent with the IP”. He also expressed his belief that transforming entertainment brands into experiences is one of the revenue engines offering long-term value. In another session, Mark Kingston, CEO and Co-founder of Libertas Brands Ltd, mentioned the rising popularity of non-traditional toys such as Fugglers, whose deliberately designed “ugly-cute” appearance echoes the rise of the emotion economy. “We want to ensure that every Fuggler engages different individuals, and that every individual can find a Fuggler that suits their personality or particular mood. That is key to the storytelling nature of Fugglers,” Mr Kingston said.Mainland institutions exhibit with distinctive cultural and creative brandsThe Chinese Mainland Pavilion brought together more than 150 institutions from regions including Beijing, Shaanxi, Jiangsu, Guangdong, Sichuan and more. Popular IPs such as Nailoong, Suchao, Tang Fugui, the Sun and Immortal Birds made their debut at the event, demonstrating the innovative vitality of the mainland’s cultural tourism IPs. Among the exhibitors in the pavilion were more than 20 cultural and museum institutions including Guangdong Museum, Nanjing Museum and the Xu Beihong Memorial Museum, showcasing the richness of the nation’s historical and cultural resources. This year, the distinctive Beijing Museums brand from the Beijing Municipal Cultural Heritage Bureau made its first overseas appearance. World cultural heritage sites such as the Great Wall and the Summer Palace collectively presented the unique character of Beijing’s heritage.Multiple MoUs signed to deepen collaboration and exchange in the licensing industrySeveral memoranda of understanding were signed during the two major licensing events, including one between the Beijing Municipal Cultural Heritage Bureau and the HKTDC. Building on their longstanding cooperation, both parties now aim to continue deepening cultural and economic exchange and collaboration under the broader framework of Beijing-Hong Kong cooperation. The MoU encourages both parties to actively build a cultural and museum cooperation platform, facilitating Beijing institutions to make use of the HKTDC’s platforms to explore aligning Beijing’s cultural and museum IPs and museum collections with Hong Kong’s professional strengths in the areas of creative design, IP transformation and licensing services, promoting the commercialisation, internationalisation and digital development of cultural and museum resources, and providing an effective way of telling China's stories.Another MoU was signed between the Innovative Entrepreneur Association (IEA) and the Shantou Cultural and Creative Tourism Industry Association, aiming to strengthen cultural and creative industry collaboration between Hong Kong and Shantou and promote the deep integration and coordinated development of the two cities’ cultural, creative and tourism industries. This collaboration was facilitated by the HKTDC following a study mission by a Hong Kong licensing industry delegation to the Greater Bay Area and South China market in January this year to explore development opportunities and business prospects. The signing of the MoU represents a further deepening of exchange and cooperation between industry players in both cities.Photo download: https://bit.ly/3QDbhJJHKTDC Executive Director Sophia Chong attended the opening ceremony of the Hong Kong International Licensing Show and Asian Licensing Conference on Monday (27 April) and delivered the welcome remarks.(From left) Commissioner for Cultural and Creative Industries of CCIDA, Drew Lai; Director, Asia Tourism Exchange Centre, Zhang Dong; HKTDC Executive Director, Sophia Chong; Permanent Secretary for Culture, Sports and Tourism, HKSAR Government, Sum Fong Kwang, Vivian; Plan and Policy Analyst Expert Level, Ministry of Culture, Thailand, Narathorn Parndee; and President and CEO of Licensing International, Maura Regan, officiated the opening ceremony.The Hong Kong International Licensing Show introduced the IP and e-Commerce Support Services Zone for the first time this year, supporting brands and IP projects in capturing new opportunities brought by e-commerce development.The Design Licensing and Business (DLAB) Support Scheme brought together nearly 40 exhibitors, showcasing multiple Hong Kong original brands and IPs.Multiple tertiary institutions participated in the Hong Kong Licensing Force Showcase, showcasing creative designs by emerging local talents.Mainland cultural and museum institutions exhibited at the Licensing Show, bringing a variety of distinctive cultural and creative brands.The Beijing Municipal Cultural Heritage Bureau and the HKTDC signed a memorandum of understanding during the two major events aimed at deepening cultural and economic exchange and collaboration between the two cities.The Asian Licensing Conference invited industry leaders to explore multiple market-focused topics.WebsitesHong Kong International Licensing Show: https://www.hktdc.com/event/hklicensingshow/enAsian Licensing Conference: https://www.hktdc.com/event/hklicensingshow/en/programme'category=all&date=allHKTDC Media Room: http://mediaroom.hktdc.com/enMedia enquiriesFor more information, please contact Raconteur:Molisa LauTel: 6187 7786Email: molisalau@raconteur.hkBetsy TseTel: 9742 7338Email: betsytse@raconteur.hkHKTDC’s Communications & Public Affairs Department:Winnie KanTel: 2584 4055Email: winnie.wy.kan@hktdc.orgAbout HKTDCThe Hong Kong Trade Development Council (HKTDC) celebrates its 60th anniversary this year.

PHILADELPHIA, PA, Apr 28, 2026 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - TruMerit™ (formerly CGFNS International) today released its 2025 Nurse Migration Report, revealing significant shifts in global nurse migration patterns and widening inequities in nursing workforce distribution across regions with vastly different healthcare needs.The report, which analyzes World Health Organization data and TruMerit's proprietary VisaScreen® application records, shows that international nurse migration flows are increasingly concentrated in regions with stronger healthcare infrastructure, while areas facing severe nursing shortages continue to lose ground in their ability to employ internationally educated nurses.Europe and Southeast Asia see sharp increases in international nurse employment. According to TruMerit's analysis of WHO nursing workforce data, Europe now employs internationally educated nurses at a rate representing 8.01% of its healthcare workforce, compared to a ten-year average of 5.96%-a persistent and significant upward trend. Southeast Asia has seen internationally educated nurses as high as 24.87% of the healthcare workforce, compared to a ten-year average of 20.15%-again, indicative of a notable, steady trend despite fluctuations over the past decade. During the same period, the proportion of internationally educated nurses working in the Eastern Mediterranean and African regions has declined, exacerbating existing nursing shortages in underserved areas."These data expose a widening global imbalance: well-resourced health systems are accelerating their absorption of internationally educated nurses, while regions with the most severe nursing shortages are losing the capacity to employ the very professionals they urgently need," said Dr. Peter Preziosi, President and CEO of TruMerit. "Correcting this maldistribution will require coordinated action by both source and destination countries--grounded in ethical recruitment frameworks, stronger bilateral agreements that help offset the education and training costs borne by source countries, and sustained investment in nursing education and health system capacity in underserved regions."Growing Complexity of International Nurse Career PathwaysThe report highlights increasing mobility among internationally educated nurses. TruMerit's analysis of VisaScreen credentialing data from 2021-2024 shows that approximately 3% of nurses migrating to the United States had already worked internationally in another country before applying for U.S. authorization-evidence of an increasingly mobile global nursing workforce in which multiple international career moves are becoming more common."The data in this report make clear that nurse migration is not simply a matter of supply and demand-it reflects deeper structural inequities in how healthcare education, employment capacity, and healthcare resources are distributed globally," said Rodrigo Gouveia, Chief Global Affairs Officer at TruMerit. "Coordinated policy frameworks, investment in nursing education systems, and strengthening of health infrastructure in underserved regions are essential to ensuring that international nurse migration supports rather than exacerbates global health equity."Emerging Risks: AI-Generated Credential Fraud Threatens Nursing Workforce IntegrityThe 2025 Nurse Migration Report also examines emerging risks to healthcare workforce integrity, including the projected rise in AI-generated occupational fraud. Industry analysts project that by 2026, one in four job candidate profiles may be fabricated by artificial intelligence, underscoring the increasing importance of verified nurse credentialing systems for protecting patient safety.The full 2025 Nurse Migration Report is available for download here.About TruMeritTruMerit is a worldwide leader in healthcare workforce development with nearly 50 years of experience supporting the mobility of nurses and other healthcare workers.

HONG KONG, Apr 28, 2026 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - The Census and Statistics Department today released the latest external merchandise trade statistics. In March 2026, the total value of Hong Kong’s merchandise exports recorded a year-on-year increase of 35.8% to HK$618.4 billion. For the first quarter of 2026, the total value of exports of goods amounted to HK$1,546.2 billion, representing a robust growth of 32.0% compared with the same period last year.Commenting on the outlook, Bruce Pang, Director of Research at the Hong Kong Trade Development Council, said Hong Kong’s exports are expected to remain steady at least in the near term, despite elevated energy prices arising from ongoing tensions in the Middle East. He noted Hong Kong’s external trade has continued to exhibit clear growth momentum, underpinned primarily by sustained global demand for electronic items and other intermediate goods that are integral to regional and global supply chains.In particular, resilient input demand from the Chinese Mainland and other ASEAN production sites, together with stable demand from major overseas markets, has provided a solid buffer against external headwinds. While geopolitical uncertainties persist and energy prices are likely to remain relatively high, continued industrial activity in major markets, as well as ongoing supply-chain realignments, are expected to lend ongoing support to Hong Kong’s trade flows.“Overall, we maintain a cautiously optimistic outlook for Hong Kong’s trade performance, while remaining mindful of potential volatility arising from geopolitical developments and cost pressures,” Pang added.HKTDC Media Room: https://mediaroom.hktdc.com/enMedia enquiriesPlease contact the HKTDC’s Communications & Public Affairs Department:Jane CheungTel: (852) 2584 4137Email: jane.mh.cheung@hktdc.orgAbout HKTDCThe Hong Kong Trade Development Council (HKTDC) celebrates its 60th anniversary this year.

First phase drilling program underway at the 100% owned Condobolin epithermal gold, silver-base metals project located in the Cobar BasinCapital efficient sole funded drilling program of up to eight diamond core holes First systematic drilling in over a decade at the historic Condobolin Mineral Field Testing down dip, on strike, new adjacent coincident geochemical and geophysical targets at the high-grade Meritilga discovery Fully funded follow-up drilling proposed at Meritilga, with additional targets including other open prior discoveries and larger causative porphyry centers also under considerationRecent corporate activity highlights the value on high-grade projects in the Cobar BasinDrilling is ongoing in partnership with AngloGold Ashanti at the highly prospective Nevertire South porphyry project in the Macquarie ArcVancouver, British Columbia--(ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com - April 28, 2026) - Gold-copper explorer and hybrid project generator Kincora Copper Limited (ASX: KCC) (TSXV: KCC) (Kincora or the Company) is pleased to announce drilling has commenced at the Condobolin project, located in the southern end of the Cobar Basin in Central West NSW.John Holliday, Technical Committee chair, and Peter Leaman, VP of Exploration, commented,"We are very excited to be drilling at two highly prospective projects, including the first systematic drilling program in over a decade at our wholly owned Condobolin project. Our recent efforts have included consolidating the historic Condobolin mining field, an extensive airborne geophysical survey, a regional assessment of shallow historical workings, open prior explorer discoveries and potential causative porphyry targets.While water and the weathering profile previously impeded mining and exploration efforts those historic obstacles now support a compelling opportunity. The last phase of drilling delivered proof-of-concept with strong results and straightforward exploration upside at multiple historical mines and new discoveries, including a blind high-grade gold discovery at Meritilga. Cobar style deposits are often vertically extensive with repeating mineral systems. Our commenced program will, for the first time, properly test that potential at Mertiliga and advance our geological concept of a deeper intrusion(s) driving zoned hydrothermal systems across multiple historical mines and targets - offering both attractive grade and scale opportunity.Recent M&A in the Cobar district highlights the strategic value of high-grade precious and critical mineral deposits, particularly where synergies can be unlocked from existing processing capacity. The Condobolin project is an asset where a junior explorer like Kincora can add significant value." Figure 1: Kincora is currently sole-funding drilling at the Condobolin Mining Field while AngloGold Ashanti funds drilling (with Kincora receiving a management fee) at the Nevertire South license which is part of two earn-ins within the Northern Junee-Narromine Belt projectThe southern Cobar Basin remains relatively under-explored, with several recent discoveries in historic mining districtsTo view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/2305/294502_kincora_0427.jpgDistrict, regional and adjacent property information disclosed is provided for general awareness and educational purposes and is not necessarily indicative of any other project of the Company it is being compared to.ABOUT THE COBAR DISTRICTThe Cobar Basin has a 150-year history of high-grade, long-life mining and is an important supplier of critical and precious metals. The region benefits from established infrastructure and favourable ESG considerations with significant scope for processing and mining efficiencies, supporting further potential regional consolidation.The district has recently seen several significant new discoveries utilising modern exploration techniques in lesser explored regions (eg Federation, Achilles, Mallee Bull, Southern Nights and Wagga Tank) and emerging corporate activity (eg Harmony's A$1.6 billion takeover for MAC Copper (MAC.ASX), Aeris Resources A$214m acquisition of Peel Mining and Kingston Resources (KSN.ASX) recently receiving A$50 million cash for the first tranche of its divestment of its PNG Misima project).ABOUT THE CONDOBOLIN PROJECTThe Condobolin project was historically the focus of up to 25 informal open pit operations (peak late 1800's-early 1900's), with mining impacted by the water table and exploration by the weathering profile. The mineral field has not been effectively explored below the weathered zone (~30m).Very limited modern exploration has taken with initial activities by Clancy Exploration (Clancy, now RareX Limited) yielding encouraging results at all five prospects drilled (2011-13), including a virgin high-grade gold discovery at the Meritilga Prospect.More recently within the immediate district, Kingston Resources has significantly expanded the resources and restarted hard rock mining at the Mineral Hill mine, Talisman Mining has had success at its Rip N Tear and Durnings targets (to both the immediate north and south of Mineral Hill), while Australian Gold and Copper has excited the market with its new district scale discovery at its Achilles target located within the south western extension of the Cobar Basin.The Condobolin project is located approximately 40km south from the mill at Mineral Hill and north of the Condobolin town (which is the primary source of employees to Mineral Hill operation who drive through the Condobolin project to work) - see Figure 1.Kincora has consolidated a 100% project ownership and continued to expand our foothold across the near surface potential of the historical Condobolin Mineral Field. Approximately 20% of the wider project is out-sub cropping with the average depth of cover in non-outcropping areas less than 5 metres supporting very easy exploration with surface geology and sampling being an effective, quick and cheap methods.In 4Q'2025, the Company completed a ~150km2 airborne electro-magnetic (AEM) geophysical survey and the first systematic drilling program in over a decade commenced at the Meritilga target.Meritilga was a new blind shallow discovery made by Clancy in 2012 following up a coincident 2km x 2km arsenic-lead-zinc (+gold) geochemical anomaly and K-channel radiometric anomaly over ridges east of the historic mines at Mascotte and west of Potters. The anomalies coincided with key NE-striking structures identified in detailed 3D induced polarization (IP) surveys 1.The gold, silver and base metals system is situated within a lode with high grade lens (ore grade, eg 4m @ 20g/t gold, 30.2 g/t silver from 75m, including 1m @ 62g/t gold, 60g/t silver in hole CORC029) and a lower grade halo. The lode is a consistent body, open up and down dip 1, 2.Land access agreements are in place and the permitting process commenced for an up to 15 diamond drill hole program for 4100 metres testing down dip (up to 350m depth) and strike extensions and the potential for repeat high grade lens and/or a stacked series of lenses. Permits and land access are in place for a first phase program of up to eight holes.This setting is supported by the last phase of Reverse Circulation (RC) drilling by Clancy, the one diamond hole drilled by Kincora in 2023, coupled with a favourable structural setting where the main Meritilga Fault has been cross-cut by N-S trending faults 3.The program will also test new adjacent coincident geochemical and geophysical targets.The current working geological model, underpinned by pathfinder zonation and coincident geophysical anomalies, supports the potential for a larger mineralised intrusive source at depth, which this drilling program seeks to also support.ABOUT KINCORAKincora Copper Limited (ASX: KCC) (TSXV: KCC) is an emerging Australia-focused gold-copper explorer with a hybrid project generator strategy.The Company is successfully proving up the prospectivity of its extensive project portfolio, which includes multiple district-scale landholdings and scalable drill ready targets. These assets are located in Australia's Lachlan Fold Belt and Mongolia's Southern Gobi, two of the globe's leading porphyry belts, and the historical Condobolin mining field within the Cobar basin in NSW.The Company has already unlocked over $100 million of potential partner funding for multiple earlier stage and/or non-core porphyry projects.

Saskatoon, Saskatchewan--(ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com - April 27, 2026) - Buffalo Potash Corporation (TSXV: BUFF) (OTCQB: BLPTF) (the "Company" or "Buffalo") is pleased to announce the completion of a Preliminary Economic Assessment ("PEA") and concurrent release of its maiden 43-101 Mineral Resource Estimate for its 100%-owned Disley Potash Project (the "Disley Project"), located in Saskatchewan, Canada.The PEA has been filed and can be found under the Company's profile on SEDAR+ (www.sedarplus.ca) and on the Company's website (www.buffalopotash.ca).PEA & Mineral Resource Estimate Highlights Total production of 1,000,000 tonnes per annum (TPA) of K62 granular-grade Muriate of Potash (MOP) and 125,000 TPA of K62 soluble grade MOPAfter-tax NPV(1)(8) of US$1.1B and IRR(1) of 30%US$639M initial CAPEX estimate, including US$128M in contingencyEstimated US$55/t MOP OPEX (Table 4)Measured and indicated tonnage of 1,671.5 million metric tonnes at an average grade of 34.8% KCl, yielding 582 million tonnes of KClOver 50 years of mine life at 1,125,000 TPA based on current resource estimate (Table 2)(2)The advancement of a Feasibility Study ("FS") for Disley East and Disley West (the "HLD Mines") will run concurrent with Initial Production Module ("IPM") construction, with FS completion representing the key decision gate for proceeding to construction of Disley East and Disley West(3)(2) Based on Measured and Indicated resource estimate of 582Mt at 34.8% KCl.(3) The PEA does not constitute a feasibility study and does not demonstrate economic viabilityMr. Steve Halabura P.Geo., Buffalo Chief Executive Officer, commented: "Since founding Buffalo Potash in 2018, the team and I have invested years of disciplined work — geological, technical, and strategic — to systematically unlock the potential of modular selective solution potash mining in Saskatchewan, the key being Buffalo's Disley Project. Having spent my career working in Saskatchewan potash, I had a strong conviction from the beginning that Disley had a substantial resource endowment, and this Mineral Resource Estimate confirms exactly that. The PEA illustrates both low capex per tonne and operating cost per tonne, as well as setting a new environmental standard for how potash production should look in the 21st century — no tailings stored on surface and minimal freshwater usage." Mr. Halabura continued: "The team and I believe the Disley Project represents the next generation of Saskatchewan potash solution mining and are excited to begin development of the Initial Production Module, which will be the first leg of this buildout and is expected to bring soluble-grade potash production online within the next 12 months. During the development of the Initial Production Module, we will also test our patent-pending Vortex Crystallizer, alongside an industry standard crystallizer, which has the potential to significantly reduce the capex of the Initial Production Module and further potential build-outs. With global attention turning to the security of critical supply chains, the urgency to bring reliable, jurisdiction-stable potash production online has never been greater. This is a proud moment for our team, our shareholders, and the stakeholders that have supported us along the way — and we are just getting started."Table 1: PEA SummaryLine ItemUnitsTotal Project Production Rate MOPTPA1,000,000Production Rate Soluble GradeTPA125,000Total Initial CAPEXUS$ million639CAPEX per Tonne CapacityUS$/tonne568Average Unit OPEXUS$/tonne55MOP Price (25-year avg.)US$/tonne393.6(4)Soluble Grade Price (25-year avg.)US$/tonne373.6(5)Pre-Tax NPV(1) (8%)US$ million1,534.67Pre-Tax IRR(1)%35Post-Tax NPV(1) (8%)US$ million1,085.47Post-Tax IRR(1)%30Steady-State Annual RevenueUS$ million442.5Steady-State Annual EBITDAUS$ million251.0 (4) LoM average price of Granular MOP, produced by Disley East and Disley West(5) LoM average price of Soluble Grade MOP, produced by IPMThe PEA is preliminary in nature and includes inferred mineral resources, which are considered too speculative geologically to have the economic considerations applied to them that would enable them to be categorized as mineral reserves. There is no certainty that the PEA will be realized.PEA & Mineral Resource Estimate OverviewThe PEA was prepared by Micon International Co Limited ("Micon") in accordance with National Instrument 43-101 Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects and evaluates the development of the Disley Project as a phased potash solution mining operation. The PEA has an effective date of April 15, 2026 and is based on a Mineral Resource Estimate ("MRE") developed concurrently by Micon with an effective date of April 15, 2026, incorporating historical assay data from legacy drilling programs as well as results from Buffalo Potash's 2026 confirmation drill program. The PEA contemplates a phased development approach across three production facilities on the Disley property:The Initial Production Module ("IPM") - is a low-capital entry point designed to bring 125,000 tonnes per year of soluble grade MOP to market;Disley East - a full-scale HLD Mine on the east segment of the Disley Project, with a production capacity of 500,000 tonnes per year of granular MOP; andDisley West - a full-scale HLD Mine on the west segment of the Disley Project, with a production capacity of 500,000 tonnes per year of granular MOP.Successful construction of the IPM is anticipated to provide technical data used in the completion of the concurrent FS and would, subject to the results from the FS and a positive construction decision, be followed by the potential concurrent development of the Disley East and Disley West HLD solution mines. If fully developed, the Disley Project is designed to have the capacity to produce 1,000,000 TPA of granular MOP and 125,000 TPA of soluble grade MOP ("Full Production Capacity").The MRE indicates a resource base that substantially exceeds the project's current design requirements, which, if successfully developed, would position the Disley Project as a long-life asset. This is consistent with the generational mine lifecycles typically associated with Saskatchewan potash operations, though there is no certainty that resources will be converted to reserves or that any particular mine life will be achieved.Table 2: Mineral Resource EstimateCategoryTonnage (Mt) Avg KCl GradeAvg K2O GradeKCl (Mt)K2O (Mt)Measured399.734.82%22.00%139.287.9Indicated1,267.434.84%22.01%441.5278.9Inferred2,663.234.96%22.08%930.9588.1 Table 2 Notes:The effective date of this MRE is April 15, 2026.Dr. Ryan Langdon, Ph.D, CGeol, of Micon is the QP responsible for this MRE.The MRE has been classified in the Measured, Indicated and Inferred categories.An average specific gravity (SG) value of 2.08 g/cm3 was used.Conversion between KCl and K2O was made using the formula KCl = K2O * 1.583The MRE used economic assumptions for HLD mining. A deduction was made to account for the presence of mining anomalies not detected by existing drill holes and seismic lines. The values used are 5% for Measured, 9% for Indicated and 25% for Inferred.The block model supporting the resource is orthogonal and has a block size of 50 m x 50 m x 0.9 m.The mineral resources described above have been prepared in accordance with the current Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum Standards and Practices.Numbers have been rounded to the nearest million tonnes. Differences may occur in totals due to rounding.Mineral Resources are not Mineral Reserves as they do not have demonstrated economic viability. The quantity and grade of reported Inferred Mineral Resources are uncertain in nature and there has been insufficient exploration; however, it is reasonably expected that a significant portion of Inferred Mineral Resources could be upgraded into Indicated Mineral Resources with further exploration.Micon's QP has not identified any legal, political, environmental, or other factors that could materially affect the potential development of the mineral resource estimate.Figure 1: Core Samples from the 7-10 Hole on the Disley ProjectTo view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/12107/294332_592822e3642ebbb0_001full.jpgMining MethodBuffalo intends to develop the Project using solution mining, a well-established approach that has been successfully deployed across Saskatchewan for more than 50 years. Solution mining is widely recognized as a reliable and efficient technique for extracting potash from laterally continuous deposits, notably used at both neighboring properties of the Disley Project — the K+S Bethune mine and the Mosaic Belle Plaine mine.Building on this proven foundation, Buffalo holds a patent on an enhanced solution mining approach known as Horizontal-Line-Drive Selective Solution Mining ("HLD Mining"), which is the installation of commercially proven oil and gas injection systems within horizontal wells. This method is designed to optimize efficiency, reduce overall capital intensity, and significantly limit freshwater requirements, while remaining grounded in the principles of traditional solution mining.Following underground dissolution, potash-rich brine is recovered to surface and processed through crystallization, drying, and compaction to produce a finished potash product ready for local delivery or export via existing road and rail infrastructure that currently runs adjacent to the Disley Property.Initial Capital Expenditure (CAPEX) The initial capital cost estimate has been prepared in line with the Class 4 definition outlined by AACE International standards, with a contingency of 25% applied to the IPM, Disley East, and Disley West components.Mechanical equipment represents the largest component of initial capital expenditure at approximately 38% of Total Project initial CAPEX. For Disley East and Disley West, the mechanical scope encompasses the full processing train required to produce export-grade granular MOP, including crystallization, debrining and drying, compaction and glazing, soluble product screening, and product storage and loading. For the IPM, the mechanical scope includes a crystallizer, pumps, tanks, pipework, centrifuge, dryer, and baghouse. Total initial capital expenditure across all three facilities is US$639 million, as summarized in the table below.Table 3: Initial CAPEX SummaryDescription IPMDisley EastDisley WestTotal Project(US$ million)(US$ million)(US$ million)(US$ million)Site Works0.711.311.323.3Concrete-5.65.611.2Structural Steel1.29.39.319.9Mechanical15.1113.3113.3241.7Piping0.214.914.930.0Electrical-15.015.029.9Instrumentation0.12.92.95.9Architecture0.019.619.639.2Minor Mechanical4.72.42.49.4General Construction1.413.313.328.0Indirects-36.136.172.3Contingency5.860.960.9127.7Total Capital Expenditure(6)29.2304.7304.7638.6 (6) For modelling purposes, the total capital expenditure estimate for the PEA assumes use of an industry standard crystallizer instead of Buffalo's patent-pending Vortex Crystallizer.Sustaining capital of US$483 million (US$17/t MOP) over the life of mine comprises an annual provision of 2% of original fixed plant and surface infrastructure costs, plus US$10/t MOP for the drilling, completion and tie-in of replacement wells — the dominant component of sustaining capital — based on each set of three wells yielding 500,000 tonnes over an approximate 5-year useful life.Operating Expenses (OPEX)Buffalo Potash's estimated operating cost of US$55/t MOP reflects the structural advantages of operating in Saskatchewan, a mature potash jurisdiction with competitive industrial energy rates, an established skilled workforce, and existing road and rail infrastructure adjacent to the Disley Property enabling low-cost delivery to both domestic and export markets. Buffalo management anticipates these fundamentals position the Disley Project to be among the lowest-cost potash producers upon reaching full production.Table 4: OPEX SummaryItemDescription1,125,000 TPA(US$ million)IPM Contingency$14.49/t applied to IPM production only1.8Wellfield Power500 Hp at $0.063/kWh1.8Processing Power19,356 Hp at $0.063/kWh18.0Drilling$25,000/day; 45 days/yr0.1Pipes, Pumps, ValvesSteaming & general maintenance0.8InstrumentationMonitoring & controls0.4Labour32 staff7.8Natural Gas$386/1000m³ incl. carbon tax19.6Maintenance5% of major equipment capital5.4ReagentsDedust oil & anticake amines2.0Water$2.20/m³; 45 m³/hr1.3General & Admin SupervisionManagement & safety1.9Admin SuppliesOffice & admin supplies0.8Total Annual OPEX61.7OPEX US$/t MOP55 / tonne Economic AssumptionsThe economic analysis evaluates the Disley Project as a phased development consisting of the IPM to establish early cash flow, followed by the full-scale HLD Mine comprising Disley West and Disley East. The IPM was evaluated as a standalone project, with the HLD Mine (Disley East and Disley West) assessed on an incremental basis and in combination with the IPM as an overall project. A Discounted Cash Flow ("DCF") model was constructed with the following assumptions:All costs and revenues are expressed in constant, first quarter 2026 money terms, with no provision for escalation or inflation;Capital and operating cost estimates denominated in Canadian dollars have been converted to US dollars at an exchange rate of CAD 1.38 per USD;A discount rate of 8% has been applied on an all-equity basis;The pre-tax results presented include the Saskatchewan Potash Production Tax (PPT) and royalties but exclude federal and provincial corporate income tax. The after-tax results include corporate income tax (Saskatchewan 12%, Federal 15%);The IPM ramps up over 3 months at 50% of nominal capacity; Disley West and Disley East have a 6-month ramp-up period at 50% of capacity, with the Disley East being deferred by a 3-month offset from the West Section;It is assumed the IPM is scheduled to begin construction July 2026 with commercial operations starting January 2027;It is assumed that a positive construction decision will be reached on Disley West and Disley East. Disley West is scheduled to begin construction July 2027, with operations beginning July 2029. Construction at Disley East is scheduled to be the final facility developed, with construction beginning October 2027 and operations beginning October 2029;Soluble grade MOP produced by the IPM is sold locally, incurring a transport cost of US$10/t compared to US$43/t for export grade granular MOP railed FOB Vancouver; soluble grade MOP is priced at a US$20/t discount to granular, reflecting a life-of-mine average of US$373.6/t versus US$393.6/t FOB Vancouver;In addition to MOP, the IPM will produce 50,000 m³ per year of KCl brine that may be attractive to regional oilfield services customers at an average transport cost of US$10/m³;Payback period is measured from the start of construction to the point at which cumulative cash flow turns positive; andAlthough the project's mine life is anticipated to extend beyond a 25-year time frame, the NPV(1) and IRR(1) calculations reflect a 25-year "LoM" period.The primary input parameters for the DCF model are outlined in the table below.Table 5: Summary of Inputs for Economic AnalysisInput ParametersUnitValueEvaluation Base Date - IPMDate2026-07-01Evaluation Base Date - Disley East & Disley WestDate2027-07-01Sales: HLD Mine MOP Sales (granular)TPA1,000,000Sales: IPM MOP (soluble)TPA125,000Sales: KCl Brinem3/yr50,000Price: Granular MOP (FOB Vancouver) 25-year averageUS$/t394Price: Soluble MOP 25-year averageUS$/t374Price: KCl BrineUS$/m343Transport Costs: Granular MOPUS$/t43Transport Costs: Soluble MOPUS$/t10Transport Costs: KCl BrineUS$/m310Corporate Tax (Sask. + Canada)%27%Contingency for CAPEX%25%Discount Rate%8%NPV calculationYears25 The Disley East and Disley West mines have a start date of construction later than that of the Initial Production Module, and their IRR(1), NPV(1) and Payback periods are all calculated from that later date, while the overall Project results reflect the start date of the IPM. The individual IPM phase has a payback period of 1.1 years, while Disley East and Disley West each respectively have payback periods of 2.9 years.

These measures do not have standardized definitions under IFRS and may not be comparable to similar measures disclosed by other issuers.NPV represents the sum of discounted future after-tax cash flows projected over the 25-year evaluation period at a discount rate of 8%, net of initial and sustaining capital expenditures. The most comparable IFRS measure is net income (loss); however, NPV is a forward-looking measure that reflects projected future cash flows and cannot be directly reconciled to historical net income. IRR represents the discount rate at which NPV equals zero across the project's projected cash flows.These measures should not be construed as alternatives to net income, comprehensive income, or cash flows from operations as determined in accordance with IFRS. Readers are cautioned that these measures reflect PEA-level estimates and are subject to the risks and uncertainties disclosed under "Forward-Looking Information" below.Forward-Looking InformationThis news release contains "forward-looking information" and "forward-looking statements" (collectively, "forward-looking information") within the meaning of applicable Canadian securities legislation and the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.

HONG KONG, Apr 27, 2026 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Standard Chartered and the Hong Kong Trade Development Council (HKTDC) jointly released the latest Standard Chartered Greater Bay Area Business Confidence Index (GBAI), revealing that business sentiment among companies in the Greater Bay Area (GBA) remained stable in the first quarter of 2026 despite ongoing geopolitical and trade headwinds, notably oil price shocks and continued repercussions from the Middle East conflict.Maintaining Momentum Amid HeadwindsThe Q1 findings largely captured activity and business sentiment since the Middle East conflict began in late February, which has remained highly uncertain and weighed on overall business and market sentiment.Despite a reduced appetite for expansion amid persistent geopolitical uncertainties, business sentiment remained steady across the GBA. The “current performance” index for business activity in Q1 edged down marginally to 49.9 from 50.3 in the previous quarter, while the “expectation” index moderated to 50.4 from 51. Both indices hovered around the 50-neutral mark, indicating GBA corporates’ resilience, supported by favourable policies announced by the Chinese Government aimed at boosting the domestic economy, which in turn would partially offset the fallout of the Middle East conflict.The “current performance” index came down mainly driven by “raw material inventory”, “fixed asset investment” and “financing scale”. The latter two readings were believed to reflect more cautious sentiment among businesses in light of the Middle East conflict. Meanwhile, “production/ sales”, “prices of finished goods/ services” and “profits” all experienced quarter-on-quarter expansion.The “expectations” index remained modestly positive, despite heightened external uncertainties. “New orders” held steady at 51.5, while “prices of finished good/ services” rose to 58.5. However, “profits” fell below the 50-watershed level, implying surveyed companies did not view price increases as sufficient to offset a likely rise in energy and material costs.Hong Kong to Sustain a Still-solid Growth PaceBy city, Hong Kong is expected to maintain a solid performance going forward. Although both the “current” and “expectation” sub-indices edged down to 52.7, these readings still comfortably stayed in expansionary territory, supported by improvements in “financial services” and “innovation and technology” sectors.Tommy Wu, Senior Economist, Greater China and North Asia, Standard Chartered, said: “In addition to the initial impact of surging global energy and freight costs, there are concerns about second-round impacts, such as higher input costs and weaker global demand. This is aligned with the latest reading, which shows a 2.3-point decline in “new export orders” to 47.5 for “current performance”, indicating a more cautious outlook for export demand. With the prolonged Middle East conflict, we anticipate global energy prices to be higher for longer and the second-round effects to become more visible in the coming months. These will likely weigh on business sentiment and appetite on making fixed investment. Nevertheless, Hong Kong has once again demonstrated its resilience amid market turbulence, and such resilience is expected to attract more global capital into HKD and Renminbi assets as safe-haven allocation.”Demand-boosting Measures Favour GBA BusinessesThe survey also investigated the impacts of a series of supportive policies from the Chinese government aimed at stimulating domestic demand in its thematic section. Among the new policy measures introduced by the Ministry of Finance in January, most respondents cited “loan interest subsidies for small, medium and micro-sized enterprises” (38.4%), “large-scale equipment upgrade subsidies” (36.9%) and “consumer goods trade-in subsidies” (31.7%) as the top domestic demand-boosting policies likely to have the most positive impact on their business.Wing Chu, Deputy Director of Research, HKTDC, said: “Demand-boosting stimulus is generating tangible benefits for GBA companies, helping to cushion external challenges amid the Middle East conflict. Targeted support, including loan interest subsidies, alongside measures aimed at stimulating consumer spending, is underpinning demand and supporting business activity across the GBA. Overall, policy-led demand support continues to serve as a meaningful tailwind for GBA businesses. While cost pressures and market competition remain key concerns, respondents are considering stepping up investment in talent and market promotion to sustain further business growth.”While many respondents believe stimulative policies could benefit their businesses by boosting online sales (36.6%) and reducing operating costs (33.8%), challenges faced by GBA corporates remain. Specifically, 54.9% of respondents identified labour costs as the biggest pressure point for their businesses, followed by rental costs (41.7%) and market competition (33.3%). Zooming into Hong Kong respondents, market competition was viewed as a more pressing challenge than rental costs, likely due to the increase in cross-border travel and change in consumption behaviours in recent years. In these circumstances, 38.7% would prioritise their investment in talent recruitment, followed by market promotion (38.1%) and personnel training (36.7%).About the GBAIThe GBAI is the first forward-looking quarterly survey in the market that looks at the business sentiment and synergistic effects in cities and industries across the GBA. It is compiled based on a survey of more than 1,000 companies in the GBA covering the manufacturing and trading, retail and wholesale, financial services, professional services and innovation and technology sectors. The index enables investors and businesses to better understand the current business climate, gauge future performance prospects and formulate their market strategies for the GBA.Related materialsStandard Chartered GBA Business Confidence Index Report: https://www.sc.com/hk/gba/gba-index-report/HKTDC Research: https://research.hktdc.com/en/article/MjMwNjM2MTgxMQReport and photos download: https://bit.ly/4u3izEMWing Chu, Deputy Director of Research, HKTDC (right), and Tommy Wu, Senior Economist, Greater China and North Asia, Standard Chartered (left), announced the latest GBA Business Confidence Index (GBAI) on 27 April 2026.Media enquiriesCorporate Affairs DepartmentStandard Chartered Bank (Hong Kong) Limited Flora Chiu Tel: (852) 3843 2285 Email: flora.chiu@sc.com Communications & Public Affairs DepartmentHKTDC Christy LeeClayton Lauw Tel: (852) 2584 4369Tel: (852) 2584 4472Email: christy.wn.lee@hktdc.orgEmail: clayton.y.lauw@hktdc.orgAbout Standard CharteredWe are a leading international banking group, with a presence in 54 of the world’s most dynamic markets.

SHENZHEN, Apr 27, 2026 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - China Medical System Holdings Limited (“CMS” or the “Group”) is pleased to announce that, the Group through its wholly-owned subsidiary entered into an exclusive commercialization and supply agreement (the “Agreement”) with Pharmacosmos A/S for Iron Isomaltoside Injection (“Monofer®”) and Iron Dextran Injection (“Cosmofer®”) recently. In accordance with the Agreement, the Group has obtained an exclusive right to commercialize the products in the People’s Republic of China (for the purpose of this Agreement, excluding the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, the Macau Special Administrative Region and Taiwan region). Pharmacosmos A/S will continue to manufacture and supply the products. The cooperation term shall be fifteen years from the effective date stipulated in the Agreement, which may be extended upon mutual agreement between the parties prior to expiry.The two intravenous iron therapies under this cooperation are both originator products that have been approved for marketing in China and included in the China’s National Reimbursement Drug List (NRDL). Among them, Monofer® is an exclusive drug and the first third-generation intravenous iron therapy approved for marketing in China. It features an innovative and more stable matrix-like nanostructure and provides a superior safety profile[1]. Its single-dose full iron replenishment significantly reduces the number of infusions, enables faster improvement in hemoglobin levels and enhances clinical convenience. Another product, Cosmofer®, is currently the only intravenous iron therapy included in Category A of the NRDL and also the only one included in the National Essential Medicines List (NEML). With many years of accumulated clinical use, its efficacy and safety have been supported by accumulated clinical experience and published data.The above two products will form a comprehensive intravenous iron product portfolio covering all channels and treatment scenarios, which can support meeting the clinical needs of different levels of healthcare institutions and different types of iron deficiency anemia (IDA) patients, providing more diversified, safe and effective treatment options for patients. Patients with iron deficiency (ID) and IDA are widely distributed across multiple clinical departments, including gastroenterology, cardiology, nephrology, obstetrics and gynecology, and orthopedics, which are all key specialty areas of the Group. The addition of the two products will generate efficient synergies with the Group’s existing marketed products in expert resources and academic promotion network, further strengthening the Group’s overall competitiveness in the field of anemia treatment, and is expected to have a positive impact on the Group’s performance.More information about Monofer®Monofer® was approved on 30 January 2021 for the treatment of iron deficiency in patients where oral iron preparations are ineffective, cannot be used, or where there is a clinical need for rapid iron supplementation. In 2023, Monofer® was included in the NRDL as a Category B reimbursable drug. Monofer® consists of nanoparticles with a stable, matrix-like structure composed of interchanging layers of iron atoms and short, linear isomaltose carbohydrates. This structure enables controlled iron release with low levels of labile iron, contributing to a favourable safety profile, including a low risk of hypersensitivity reactions and hypophosphatemia. Monofer® can be administered as a high-dose infusion of 1,000 mg or more in a single visit, whereas older therapies such as iron sucrose typically require repeated administrations of 100 to 200 mg. This enables full iron repletion in one treatment, reducing the need for multiple infusions, lowering the burden on patients and healthcare systems, and increasing infusion capacity. At the same time, the low risk of hypophosphatemia helps avoid complications such as fractures and supports recovery from fatigue, a key symptom of iron deficiency anaemia.More information about Cosmofer®Cosmofer® is a second-generation low-molecular-weight iron dextran injection. It was approved for marketing in Mainland China in 2003 and is indicated for patients with iron deficiency who cannot take oral iron preparations (such as those who are intolerant to oral iron or have unsatisfactory therapeutic outcomes). Cosmofer® also allows single-dose high-dose iron repletion. With many years of accumulated clinical use, its efficacy and safety have been supported by accumulated clinical experience and published data. Its dual status as a Category A NRDL-listed product and NEML supports its core role in iron supplementation in primary healthcare settings.About Iron Deficiency and Iron Deficiency AnemiaID and IDA are global health issues that commonly affect children, premenopausal women (particularly pregnant women) and the elderly. These conditions may impair the function of multiple organ systems, leading to a series of health problems such as growth retardation, behavioral disorders, cognitive impairment, reduced physical capacity, and peri-natal and peri-operative complications. They also significantly affect the prognosis of chronic diseases such as gastrointestinal diseases, chronic kidney disease, heart failure and tumors[2]. More than 1 billion people live with iron deficiency anaemia[3], making it one of the leading contributors to the global burden of disease[4]. Data from the Fourth National Nutrition Survey in China indicate that the prevalence of IDA among Chinese residents is 20.1%[5]. However, both patients and healthcare professionals have insufficient awareness of the disease. Less than 20% of patients with mild anemia receive diagnosis and treatment, while only about 50% of patients with severe anemia receive appropriate diagnosis and treatment[2]. This indicates significant underdiagnosis and undertreatment of ID/IDA. Iron supplementation is the standard treatment for ID/IDA and includes oral iron therapy and intravenous iron therapy. Intravenous iron therapy is an important option for patients who cannot tolerate oral iron, have inadequate response to oral therapy, require rapid iron repletion, or prefer full iron supplementation within one to two administrations[1,2,6]. However, due to insufficient awareness of IDA, patient adherence issues, hospitalization constraints, infusion convenience, and safety concerns regarding intravenous iron therapies, the clinical use of intravenous iron in China remains relatively conservative. A Chinese real-world study shows that the average total dose of iron sucrose used in IDA patients was approximately 511 mg, which was significantly lower than the target dose of 1,000 mg[2]. There is therefore a significant clinical need for intravenous iron therapies that offer high safety, strong demonstrated efficacy and single-dose full iron repletion. Monofer® and Cosmofer® together establish a comprehensive intravenous iron product portfolio covering multiple treatment scenarios, providing tiered treatment options for patients with iron deficiency anemia.About Pharmacosmos A/SPharmacosmos A/S is a global leader in carbohydrate chemistry and innovative treatments for iron deficiency and iron deficiency anemia.
