VANCOUVER, Dec. 2, 2024 - Blue Sky Uranium Corp. (TSXV: BSK) (FSE: MAL2) (OTC: BKUCF), ("Blue Sky" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that the Company has entered into a definitive earn-in agreement (the "Earn-In Agreement") dated November 29, 2024, with Abatare Spain, S.L.U. ("COAM") and ACI Capital S.à r.l, as guarantor (the "Guarantor"), pursuant to which the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries Minera Cielo Azul S.A. ("MCA") and Ivana Minerals S.A. ("JVCO" and together with MCA and the Company, the "BSK Entities"), have granted to COAM the sole and exclusive right to acquire up to an 80% indirect interest in the Ivana Uranium-Vanadium Deposit located in the Province of Rio Negro, Argentina (the "Property"), to be effected by way of an 80% equity interest in JVCO, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Earn-In Agreement (the "Transaction").

Under the terms of the Earn-In Agreement, COAM has been granted (i) a right to acquire a 49.9% indirect equity interest in the Property by funding cumulative expenditures of US$35 million and (ii) upon completion of a feasibility study, a right (the "Development Earn-In Right") to acquire up to an 80% equity interest in JVCO by funding the costs and expenditures to develop and construct the project to commercial production, subject to the terms and conditions in the Earn-In Agreement.

Blue Sky President & Chief Executive Officer Nikolaos Cacos said: "Having fleshed out the details of this landmark agreement in recent months, we now look forward to closing the transaction which will position Blue Sky and its shareholders to greatly benefit from advancing the Ivana deposit alongside member companies of the global energy business of Corporación América Group, one of the most capable groups in Argentina." He continued, "The additional call option in the agreement will help fund exploration at other highly-prospective properties in our portfolio, clearing a path to make more discoveries, build more resources and create more value."

Both COAM and the Guarantor are part of the Corporacion America Group, a conglomerate with diversified investments across Latin America and Europe, with significant stakes in the energy (www.cgc.energy), airport (www.caap.aero), agribusiness, services, infrastructure, transportation and technology sectors.
