Yukon Metals Closes C$13 Million Financing

Press Release

/NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO UNITED STATES NEWSWIRE SERVICES OR FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES. NOT AN OFFER OF SECURITIES FOR SALE IN THE UNITED STATES/

VANCOUVER, British Columbia, June 11, 2026 – Yukon Metals Corp. (CSE: YMC, FSE: E770, OTCQB: YMMCF) (“Yukon Metals” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that it has completed its previously announced “best efforts” agency based private placement, consisting of (i) 6,885,964 “flow-through” units of the Company (the “FT Units”) at a price of C$0.57 per FT Unit, and (ii) 18,050,000 units of the Company (the “HD Units”) at a price of $0.50 per HD Unit, for aggregate gross proceeds of approximately C$13 million (the “Offering”). The FT Units and the HD Units are collectively referred to herein as the “Offered Securities”.

Each Offered Security consists of one common share in the capital of the Company (a “Common Share”) and one-half of one common share purchase warrant (each whole common share purchase warrant, a “Warrant”). Each Warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one Common Share at a price of C$0.75 until June 11, 2028. Each Common Share and one-half of one Warrant comprising the FT Units qualify as “flow-through shares” (within the meaning of subsection 66(15) of the Income Tax Act (Canada) (the “Tax Act”)).

“The completion of this financing provides the capital to advance drilling at our copper-gold properties,” says the Company’s CEO Jim Coates. “Funds will also support target generation across our broader Yukon portfolio.”

The Offering was co-led by ATB Cormark Capital Markets and Canaccord Genuity Corp. on behalf of a syndicate of agents, including Haywood Securities Inc. (together, the “Agents”). The Agents received a cash commission equal to 6.0% of the gross proceeds of the Offering, excluding the approximately C$1.4 million worth of Offered Securities sold to purchasers settling directly with the Company (the “Direct Settlers”) on which a cash commission was not paid. Approximately C$4.70 million worth of Offered Securities were sold to certain purchasers identified by the Company on a president’s list. As additional consideration for their services, the Agents were also issued compensation warrants (the “Compensation Warrants”) equal to 6.0% of the number of Offered Securities issued pursuant to the Offering, other than with respect to Offered Securities issued to Direct Settlers for which no Compensation Warrants were issued. Each Compensation Warrant entitles the holder thereof to subscribe for one Common Share at a price of C$0.50 until June 11, 2028. The Compensation Warrants are subject to a hold period of four months and one day from the closing of the Offering, in accordance with applicable Canadian securities laws, expiring on October 12, 2026.

The Company, pursuant to the provisions in the Tax Act, shall use an amount equal to the gross proceeds of the sale of the FT Units to incur “Canadian exploration expenses” that qualify as “flow-through critical mineral mining expenditures” as both terms are defined in the Tax Act (the “Qualifying Expenditures”) prior to December 31, 2027. The Company shall renounce the Qualifying Expenditures so incurred to the purchasers of the FT Units effective on or before December 31, 2026.

The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the sale of the HD Units for a drilling campaign on its AZ and Birch properties and for working capital and general corporate purposes.

Certain insiders of the Company acquired an aggregate of 2,117,000 Offered Securities and as such the Offering is considered a “related party transaction” as defined under Multilateral Instrument 61-101 – Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions (“MI 61-101”). The Company has relied on exemptions from the valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements of MI 61-101 contained in sections 5.5(a) and 5.7(1)(a) of MI 61-101 in respect of the insiders’ participation in the Offering, as such participation does not exceed 25% of the Company’s market capitalization. The Company will file a material change report in respect of the completion of the Offering. However, the Company did not file such a material change report 21 days prior to closing of the Offering as the participation of insiders of the Company in the Offering had not been confirmed at that time.

The securities described herein have not been and will not be registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or any U.S. state securities laws, and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or available exemptions from such registration requirements. This news release does not constitute an offer to acquire securities in any jurisdiction.
