[{"type":"text","content":" Winnipeg, Manitoba--(Newsfile Corp. - March 21, 2025) - Snow Lake Resources Ltd., d/b/a Snow Lake Energy (NASDAQ: LITM) (\"Snow Lake\"), a North American uranium exploration and development company, today welcomed the Trump Administration's March 20, 2025 Executive Order (the \"Executive Order\") aimed at aggressively accelerating American mineral production, including uranium. Snow Lake's recently announced 50/50 joint venture with Global Uranium and Enrichment Limited (\"GUE\") on the Pine Ridge Uranium Project (\"Pine Ridge\") in Wyoming is now positioned to directly benefit from the measures announced in the Executive Order. Executive Order Unlocks Fast-Tracked Permitting and Government Funding The Executive Order establishes uranium as a critical mineral for national and energy security.

We strongly believe that Pine Ridge holds the potential to directly contribute to the objectives of the Executive Order.\" Pine Ridge Uranium Project - Fully Aligned with U.S. Strategic Objectives The Pine Ridge Project, located in Wyoming's Powder River Basin, is a fully domestic, advanced-stage uranium asset with a large JORC 2012 exploration target, significant potential scale, and rapid development potential through In-Situ Recovery (ISR) methods.1 Wyoming is the U.S.'s leading uranium-producing state and benefits from a well-established, mining-friendly, regulatory framework. Surrounded by large-scale uranium operations, including Cameco's Smith Ranch facility just 15 km away, Pine Ridge is uniquely positioned to potentially contribute to rebuilding America's uranium supply chain.
