Jason Barnard, President and CEO of Foremost Clean Energy, appears on the RedChip Small Stocks Big Money show on Bloomberg TV to discuss the company's strategy to capitalize on the accelerating global nuclear renaissance through its large-scale, discovery-focused uranium portfolio in Canada's Athabasca Basin. Barnard highlights Foremost's option to earn up to a 70% interest in 10 underexplored uranium properties spanning more than 330,000 acres in one of the world's highest-grade uranium jurisdictions, from its largest shareholder, Denison Mines Corp., which provides access to extensive historical data, technical expertise, and operational support. He also outlines the company's multi-property drill programs targeting high-priority, discovery-ready zones along proven uranium corridors, the structural supply-demand imbalance emerging in global uranium markets driven by AI, data centers, and electrification, and Foremost's tight capital structure and NASDAQ listing, positioning the company for significant leverage to exploration success and value creation as nuclear power regains prominence in global energy policy.

Scott Monteith, President and CEO of Avalon Advanced Materials, appears on the RedChip Small Stocks Big Money show on Bloomberg TV to discuss Avalon's position as a North American critical minerals platform supporting secure domestic supply chains for clean energy, advanced technologies, and defense applications. Monteith highlights Avalon's flagship Nechalacho Rare Earth Elements and Zirconium Project-one of the largest and highest-quality North American resources containing both light and heavy rare earth elements. Avalon is transitioning to a more efficient, sustainable, and eco-friendly rare earth extraction process, reducing reliance on conventional acid leaching while optimizing recovery rates. In addition, Monteith discusses the company's plans to establish Ontario's first midstream lithium hydroxide processing facility in Thunder Bay to serve the rapidly expanding EV battery and grid-scale energy storage manufacturing ecosystem. He also outlines key value-driving catalysts, including geopolitical dynamics that elevate Avalon's rare earth and lithium assets as central to G-7 supply-chain priorities, the company's recent capital raise to advance feasibility work on both projects, continued project de-risking, and the company's disciplined execution strategy designed to unlock the substantial long-term value embedded in Avalon's rare earth and lithium portfolio.
