Vancouver, British Columbia – TheNewswire - December 23, 2024 —Blast Resources Inc. (“Blast” or the “Company”) BBLST is pleased to announce that it has entered into an optionagreement (the “Optionee”) in which the Company was grantedthe option to acquire a 100% interest in two uranium explorationproperties from the same Optionor in the Athabasca Basin region,northern Saskatchewan.

Althoughthe Clearwater Domain is almost entirely covered by the AthabascaBasin and younger Phanerozoic sediments, this prominent geophysicalanomaly has been interpreted as a batholith-scale magmatic event. Abatholith is a type of igneous rock that forms when magma (moltenrock) rises into the earth's crust but does not erupt onto thesurface.

The option agreement for additional claims consists of13 claims, a total of 6,905 Hectares (“ha”). These claims andprevious claims optioned earlier in 2024 form the following groups.Three claims (3,176 ha) form a group on the west side of Britts Lake,and a group of 12 claims (8,049 ha) around Little Agar Lake, togetherproviding significant exploration opportunities. These strategicacquisitions bolster Blast’s commitment to discovering criticalminerals in support of the energy transition.
