Northstar Announces Receipt of Letter of Interest on Potential Funding for up to Four United States Asphalt Shingle Reprocessing Facilities
Similar to the non-revolving secured debt facility outstanding with the Business Development Bank of Canada (" BDC") associated with the Company's Empower Calgary Facility, the LOI represents project financing where the security package, financial covenants and debt servicing requirements are directly attributable to the US Facility#1 itself. The LOI stipulates EDC to maintain a first ranking, or senior secured position, on the underlying assets with the ability to co-lend with other debt providers. EDC could extend credit up to C$12.5 million. Financial and reporting covenants, guarantees and pricing would apply and will be finalized as part of ongoing discussions. EDC due diligence will require, among other matters, sufficient comfort on the commercialization of the Empower Calgary Facility, which is nearing commissioning completion, completion support for US Facility#1 involving cost overrun protections, and equity contributions from one or more parties prior to any draws under an EDC debt facility.
"While still early days, we are very encouraged by EDC's interest to potentially provide financial support for our growth aspirations in the United States," stated Aidan Mills, President & CEO. "The United States represents a significant market for Northstar and we continue to advance site selection, permitting and securing long-term supply agreements, for a number of US locations. These efforts are in line with our existing liquid asphalt off-take arrangements for the first four facilities in the United States with TAMKO Building Products LLC. Our international growth objectives align seamlessly with EDC's mandate and we look forward to a long and prosperous partnership."
"The LOI from EDC could ultimately lead to a foundational funding vehicle for Northstar's US capital strategy," commented Greg Phaneuf, VP Corporate Development & CFO. "Northstar's business model lends itself to prudent leverage to materially reduce our project cost of capital, thereby enhancing returns for our shareholders. We look forward to working with EDC to crystallize funding terms as part of our larger growth capital initiatives."

GoldMining Options Up to 80% of the Boa Vista Project to Australian Mines Limited for Total Consideration of Up to $7 million
VANCOUVER, BC, July 1, 2025 /CNW/ - GoldMining Inc. (the " Company" or " GoldMining") (TSX: GOLD) (NYSE American: GLDG) is pleased to announce that its wholly-owned subsidiary has entered into a binding term sheet for an earn-in agreement (the " Earn-In Agreement"), pursuant to which, among other things, Australian Mines Limited (ASX:AUZ) (" AUZ") may acquire up to an 80% interest in the Company's Boa Vista Project (" Boa Vista" or the " Project"), located in the Tapajós Gold Province, Pará State, Brazil in consideration for aggregate cash and equity payments of up to $7 million 1, as described below. The Company presently owns an indirect 84.05% interest in the Project and, if the option is exercised in full, will retain a 20% interest at such time. Alastair Still, CEO of GoldMining, commented: "We are pleased to announce this option agreement which positions GoldMining to unlock value from its Boa Vista Project. At the same time, the transaction will allow management to further focus its attention on advancing its key assets, such as the São Jorge Project, where the Company recently announced its largest drilling program to date. Boa Vista is not included within our disclosed global resource estimate, but it does contain numerous exploration targets and, following the full exercise of the proposed options, GoldMining will retain upside to Boa Vista through a retained interest, future staged earn-in and milestone payments and equity in AUZ as they advance the Project. We wish AUZ success with exploration and look forward to potential future benefits for both companies." Key Earn-In Agreement Highlights: Initial Consideration: $55,000 cash payment (non-refundable); and Issuance of ordinary shares of AUZ (" AUZ Shares") valued at AUD$1 million ($884,000), calculated based on a deemed issue price per AUZ Share equal to the twenty-day volume-weighted average price (" VWAP") for AUZ Shares immediately prior to the date of execution of the Earn-In Agreement, to be distributed on a pro rata basis to the Company and the minority holder. First Option: AUZ has 3 years from the date all conditions precedent to the Earn-In Agreement are satisfied to earn the right to a 51% interest in the Project by: Incurring minimum exploration expenditures of $3,978,000 (AUD$4.5 million), inclusive of: Completing a minimum 6,000 metres of diamond core drilling; and Making three annual cash payments to the Company of $250,000. Announcing a JORC-compliant mineral resource estimate of at least 500,000 gold ounces, including at least 250,000 ounces in the measured and indicated categories; and Issuance of AUZ Shares valued at AUD$1 million ($884,000), calculated based on a deemed issue price per AUZ Share equal to the twenty-day VWAP for AUZ Shares immediately prior to the date of notice of exercise of the First Option, to be distributed on a pro rata basis to the Company and the minority holder. Upon satisfying the First Option Conditions AUZ and GoldMining will form a joint venture (51/49 respectively) on industry standard terms with AUZ as the initial operator. Second Option: AUZ may earn a further 19% interest in the Project (to 70%) within 3 years from the date of completion of the first option by: Expending a minimum annual amount of AUD$1 million ($884,000) on exploration and feasibility study activities on the Project, including a minimum of AUD$1 million ($884,000) on environmental baseline studies; and Completing a Feasibility Study containing a JORC and NI 43-101 Mineral Reserve of more than 250,000 ounces of gold. Third Option: AUZ has a further option, exercisable within 90 days from the date of completion of the second option, to earn a further 10% interest in the Project (to 80%) by: At the Company's option, either by granting the Company a shield to dilution out of the joint venture or by paying the Company the third option exercise price (which may be a mix of cash and equity, with a minimum 50% in cash) in an amount equal to the greater of either (i) or (ii): $4,420,000 (AUD$5 million); and the value of the then Mineral Resource at the Project at the time of exercise, calculated as the sum of gold oz contained within the Mineral Resource by multiplying measured resources by AUD$20/oz, indicated resources by AUD$10/oz, and inferred resources (less 300,000 oz) by AUD$2.50/oz 1 Dollar amounts are in Canadian dollars unless noted. AUD converted to CAD at rate of 1 AUD = 0.884 CAD. The Earn-In Agreement is subject to customary conditions applicable to the transactions contemplated therein, including receipt of requisite shareholder approvals of AUZ and stock exchange approvals of the ASX. AUZ intends to call a meeting of shareholders to seek shareholder approval for the Earn-In Agreement. Boa Vista Project The Boa Vista Gold Project is located in the Tapajós Gold District, 350km south of the main regional city Itaituba, southwest Pará State, Brazil (see Figure 1). Access to the Boa Vista Gold Project from the cities of Itaituba or Novo Progresso is via highway BR-163 and artisanal mining roads, or via a 1.5-hour flight in a light aircraft from Itaituba. The Project comprises 3 exploration permits covering an area of approximately 9,201 ha (92 km 2). GoldMining owns 84.05% of the Project with Majestic D&M Holdings, LLC owning the remaining 15.95%. The Boa Vista property is underlain by granites, granodiorites and mafic volcanics. Bedrock surface exposures identify east-west, northwest and northeast striking shear structures containing quartz sulphide veinlets, silica breccia and stock works hosted in sericite and pyrite altered and foliated granite and mafic volcanic rocks. Mineralization at most prospects is considered to be mesothermal in nature, however at some of the prospects, vein textures suggest it may be epithermal style mineralization. Coarse visible gold hosted in silica veined and brecciated rock was first discovered in surface outcrops at the VG1 prospect in 2010. Subsequent soil geochemical surveying has outlined a gold-in-soil anomaly trending to the west-northwest over 2 kilometres in length and up to 350 metres in width. Gold mineralization is associated with sericite, carbonate, silica and pyrite alteration associated with quartz stock work and brecciated granitic and mafic volcanic rocks.

Geo., Vice President Exploration of GoldMining, has supervised the preparation of, and verified and approved, all other scientific and technical information herein this news release. Mr. Smith is also a qualified person as defined in National Instrument 43-101 – Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects (" NI 43-101"). About GoldMining Inc.

Accordingly, readers should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. There can be no assurance that forward-looking statements, or the material factors or assumptions used to develop such forward-looking statements, will prove to be accurate.
