EXHIBIT 99.1
Foremost Clean Energy Announces Commencement of Inaugural Drill Program at the Turkey Lake Property
Crews mobilized for Foremost’s first drill program on the property, with four areas planned for testing targets based on 2026 gravity survey
VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Nov. 02, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Foremost Clean Energy Ltd. (NASDAQ: FMST) (CSE: FAT) (“Foremost” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that it has commenced its first diamond drill program on the Turkey Lake Uranium Project (“Turkey Lake”) in northern Saskatchewan (Figure 1). The program is intended to test priority targets identified by integrating a ground gravity survey completed in January 2026 with historical drilling, electromagnetic, magnetic, and geological data.
Highlights
- Historical uranium intersections highlight the potential of the Turkey Lake property and provide a foundation for additional exploration.
- The property has more than 10 kilometres of underexplored conductive strike length, with priority targets refined by a ground gravity survey completed in January 2026.
- Given the shallow depths (<50 metres of sandstone cover) to most exploration
targets on the property, multiple targets can be tested with relatively few metres drilled – a 1,000 metre drill program is planned
to test approximately four target areas.
Cameron MacKay, P.Geo., Vice President of Exploration for Foremost, commented: “Turkey Lake is an example of the depth of Foremost’s exploration portfolio. The property has multiple attractive target areas and through our review of historical exploration carried out by Denison and the integration of the new gravity survey completed by Foremost, we have generated several priority targets for drill testing.
The value of the gravity survey is in how it helps us distinguish targets along a long conductive corridor. We prioritized locations where gravity lows coincide with conductors and/or interpreted structural features and then used the historical drilling to provide valuable geological context to plan our specific drill targets. The program is intended to test whether these features reflect alteration and structures capable of hosting uranium mineralization, which could occur both near the shallow unconformity and within the basement.
Given Turkey Lake’s location straddling the margin of the Athabasca Basin, the targets are also relatively shallow, which allows for multiple targets to be tested with relatively few metres of drilling.”
Figure 1. Turkey Lake regional setting and location.
Historical work provides a foundation for the next steps
Turkey Lake is located along the northeastern margin of Saskatchewan's Athabasca Basin, approximately 23 kilometres north of the McClean Lake Mill and 25 kilometres north of the Eagle Point Mine (Figure 1). Historical drilling, geophysical and geochemical surveys provide a foundation for refining and testing targets at Turkey Lake.
Previous drilling identified uranium mineralization, including:
- 0.16% U₃O₈ over 0.6 metres in hole TUR-4i immediately above the sub-Athabasca unconformity;
- 0.12% U₃O₈ over 0.5 metres in hole TL-10-13ii; and
- Elevated radioactivity in nearby follow-up drilling, providing additional indications
of uranium potential along the conductive corridor.
The 2026 gravity survey builds on this work, helping prioritize targets along the broader corridor.
The historical drilling results referred to in this news release are derived from public assessment files filed with the Government of Saskatchewan. The Qualified Person has not independently verified these historical results, and they should not be relied upon as indicative of the grade or extent of mineralization on the property.
A shallow setting with room for further exploration
The property straddles the edge of the Athabasca Basin, meaning it spans both sandstone-covered ground and exposed basement terrain outside the Basin’s margin (Figure 2). Where sandstone is present, its thickness is less than 50 metres, placing the sandstone–basement contact, or unconformity, at shallow depths. The unconformity is a common target for uranium mineralization.
More than 10 kilometres of underexplored conductive strike length (Figure 2) provides scope to test for both unconformity-related and basement-hosted uranium mineralization. Historical uranium intersections establish an exploration starting point, while the new gravity data help prioritize where to test within the broader corridor.

New gravity data sharpen targets along an underexplored corridor
The ground gravity survey completed in January 2026 identified multiple gravity low anomalies. These are interpreted as possible zones of hydrothermal alteration and potential fluid pathways. Several coincide with electromagnetic conductors and magnetic features, allowing the Company to focus drilling on locations where multiple geological features and datasets point to the existence of a common geological target (Figure 2).
The top targets generated from the gravity survey have been grouped into (i) those situated along the edge of the Athabasca Basin with the potential for unconformity-hosted mineralization (“Basin Edge Targets”) and (ii) those outside of the Basin, which lack sandstone cover and thus represent targets for basement-hosted mineralization (“BEX Targets”).
