Commencement: Ground-Based Electromagnetic Survey
URU Metals Limited has commenced a ground-based frequency-domain electromagnetic (FDEM) survey at its Zeb Nickel Project, following a successful gravity survey. This FDEM survey aims to refine conductive anomalies identified from previous airborne surveys, providing higher resolution data to better discriminate between sulphide mineralisation and lithological conductors, and to understand the geometry and depth of EM anomalies. The integration of FDEM results with gravity and magnetic data is expected to significantly improve drill target definition for the upcoming drilling campaign, and the company is also preparing to select a drilling contractor.

[{"type":"text","content":"\n\n8 May 2026\nURU Metals Limited\n (\"URU\" or the \"Company\")\n \nCommencement of Ground-Based Electromagnetic Survey\nURU Metals Limited (\"URU\" or the \"Company\") is pleased to announce the commencement of the ground-based frequency-domain electromagnetic (\"FDEM\") survey at the Zeb Nickel Project (\"Project\").\nThe FDEM survey follows the successful completion of the ground-based gravity survey and forms a key component of the Company's ongoing geophysical programme aimed at refining and prioritising drill targets identified from the previously completed airborne surveys.\nGround-Based Electromagnetic Survey\nThe ground-based FDEM survey will be conducted over the previously defined priority target areas and is designed to further investigate the conductive anomalies identified from the Spectrem airborne electromagnetic survey.\nThe survey will utilise frequency-domain electromagnetic methods, which are capable of detecting and mapping subsurface conductive bodies at a higher spatial resolution than airborne systems.\nPurpose and Benefits\nWhile the airborne geophysical programme successfully identified several compelling coincident gravity-magnetic-electromagnetic anomalies and confirmed the presence of a magmatic conduit system, the ground-based FDEM survey provides:\n· Higher-resolution definition of conductive bodies\n· Improved discrimination between sulphide mineralisation and lithological conductors\n· Enhanced understanding of the geometry, depth, and continuity of EM anomalies\n· Greater confidence in prioritising drill targets\nThe survey is specifically designed to better delineate conductive zones that may represent semi-massive to massive nickel sulphide mineralisation, particularly where coincident with dense gravity anomalies identified in the recently completed gravity survey.\nThe integration of the FDEM results with the gravity and magnetic datasets is expected to significantly improve target definition and maximise the effectiveness of the Company's upcoming drilling campaign.\n\nFigure 1: Maps showing the Zeb Nickel Project area, the results of the gravity survey, and the planned EM survey areas over the same geophysical targets adjacent to the Ivanplats 'Platreef Mine,' which is expected to become the largest underground ...
