Foremost Clean Energy Appoints Uranium Exploration Expert to Lead Strategic Growth Initiative

Foremost Clean Energy Ltd. has appointed Cameron MacKay as Vice President of Exploration, effective June 1, 2025, marking a strategic move to enhance the company's uranium exploration capabilities during a period of increasing global demand for clean energy solutions. MacKay brings over a decade of specialized experience in uranium exploration, including multiple discoveries within Canada's Athabasca Basin region, where Foremost holds interests spanning more than 330,000 acres across ten uranium properties.

The appointment aligns with Foremost's ambitious strategy to advance its uranium portfolio through disciplined exploration approaches. MacKay's professional background includes senior roles in uranium programs and contributions to base metals development at Hudbay Minerals Inc., providing him with comprehensive expertise in mineral exploration and project advancement. His track record of discovery in the Athabasca Basin positions the company to potentially identify new uranium resources in what is considered a top-tier geological jurisdiction for uranium deposits.

Foremost plans to work alongside exploration partner Denison to identify and test drill-ready targets with identified mineralization, leveraging MacKay's expertise to optimize exploration efficiency. This strategic partnership and leadership appointment come at a critical time as global decarbonization efforts accelerate, positioning nuclear power as a crucial clean energy solution. The growing recognition of nuclear energy's role in reducing carbon emissions has increased demand for uranium resources, creating significant opportunities for companies with substantial exploration portfolios in proven uranium districts.

Beyond its primary uranium focus, Foremost maintains a secondary portfolio of lithium projects across Manitoba and Quebec, totaling over 50,000 acres at various development stages. This diversified approach underscores the company's commitment to supporting worldwide energy transition goals through responsible resource exploration for multiple clean energy technologies. The combination of uranium and lithium projects positions Foremost to contribute to both nuclear and battery storage solutions, two critical components of the global clean energy transition.

MacKay's appointment signals Foremost's commitment to strengthening its technical leadership during a period of increased focus on domestic uranium supply security. His experience in advancing projects from early exploration through to discovery stages is expected to be instrumental in driving Foremost's exploration efforts forward, potentially leading to significant contributions to the clean energy landscape through the identification of new uranium resources needed to support expanding nuclear power capacity worldwide.
