[{"type":"text","content":"Homerun Resources Inc. Announces Multi-Process Testing Results for Santa Maria Eterna High-Purity Silica Sand ProjectIndependent German Testing Firm Dorfner Anzaplan Confirms Multiple High-Value Markets Across Multiple Alternative Purification RoutesKEY HIGHLIGHTS:ULTRA-LOW STARTING IMPURITIES - CONFIRMING RAW WASHED SILICA QUALITYHomerun's washed raw silica sand from its Santa Maria Eterna silica deposit (SME) in Belmonte, Bahia, Brazil analyzed via ICP contained exceptionally high SiO2 at 99.9694% and low impurities totalling 306 ppm including Fe (6.1 ppm), Al (8.9 ppm), Ti (33 ppm) and Na (4.1 ppm).MULTIPLE ALTERNATIVE PURIFICATION ROUTES WITHOUT HAZARDOUS CHEMICALSTesting validated multiple successful non-HF (hydrofluoric acid-free) purification processes that achieved 92-204 ppm total impurities, enabling Homerun to avoid the environmental and safety risks associated with traditional HF processing. The best result of 92 ppm total impurities was achieved through an innovative thermal treatment combined with caustic processing.QUALIFIED FOR PREMIUM SOLAR GLASS, OPTICAL GLASS AND INDUSTRIAL MARKETSHomerun's SME silica sand tested positive for solar glass and extra clear glass applications which typically require iron impurities below 70 ppm. Homerun's washed raw silica sand tested at less than 7 ppm. The Anzaplan processed silica exceeds specifications for Type I optical glass manufacturing, requiring iron below 1 ppm (Homerun SME silica sand achieved 0.34 ppm). Additional validated applications include engineered stone composites, fused silica, silicon carbide production and ceramics.Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - December 9, 2025) - Homerun Resources Inc. (TSXV: HMR) (OTCQB: HMRFF) (\"Homerun\" or the \"Company\") is pleased to announce exceptional results from comprehensive metallurgical testing completed by Dorfner Anzaplan GmbH, one of Europe's leading independent silica sand testing laboratories based in Germany. The testing program evaluated multiple alternative purification routes for silica sand from Homerun's Santa Maria Eterna silica sand resources in Belmonte, Bahia, Brazil (the \"Belmonte Project\") confirming the deposit's suitability for multiple high-value industrial applications.As previously announced, Homerun has completed a 43-101 compliant Technical Report with Mineral Resource Es...
