Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - September 14, 2026) - CleanTech Vanadium Mining Corp. (TSXV: CTV) (OTCQB: CTVFF) ("CleanTech" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that shareholders of the Company ("Shareholders") have approved all resolutions put forward for consideration at the annual general and special meeting of Shareholders held on September 11, 2026 (the "Meeting") all as further described in the management information circular of the Company dated July 28, 2026 (the "Circular"). At the Meeting, Shareholders approved:

• the setting of the number of directors of the Company at three (3) and the election of John Lee, Greg Hall and Masateru Igata as directors of the Company for the ensuing year;
• the appointment of Mao & Ying LLP, Chartered Professional Accountants as the auditors of the Company and authorizing the directors to fix the remuneration to be paid to Mao & Ying LLP, Chartered Professional Accountants;
• the ratification and approval of the amended and restated incentive plan of the Company;
• the amended and restated net smelter return royalty agreement dated July 20, 2026 between U.S. Fluorspar LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, and Oracle Commodity Holding Corp.; and
• the proposed sale of the Company's Robinson-Lasher zinc-germanium-gallium deposit (the "Robinson-Lasher Project") to Silver Elephant Mining Corp. ("Silver Elephant"), as previously disclosed in a news release dated June 12, 2026 (the "Robinson-Lasher Transaction"),

in each case, as further described in the Circular.

The Company also advises that on September 8, 2026, the Company received the conditional approval of the TSX Venture Exchange (the "TSXV") for the Robinson-Lasher Transaction. Closing of the Robinson-Lasher Transaction is subject to customary conditions set out in the conditional approval letter, and the terms (summarized in the Company's news release dated June 12, 2026) contained in the asset purchase agreement entered into by the parties for the Robinson-Lasher Transaction.

As the Robinson-Lasher Transaction involved "Non-Arm's Length Parties" (as that term is defined in the Policies of the TSXV) and the Company has not provided evidence of value to the TSXV in the method prescribed by the TSXV in respect of the value of the Robinson-Lasher Project, the TSXV required the Company to obtain approval for the Robinson-Lasher Transaction from a simple majority of disinterested Shareholders.
