ZURICH, SWITZERLAND, Jan 29, 2026 - (JCN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Hitachi Energy, in collaboration with Microsoft, is accelerating the digital transformation of essential infrastructure —from electricity networks and transportation corridors to heavy industrial operations—by reinventing how critical assets are managed and maintained.Power grids, rail networks, manufacturing facilities, and other critical assets are often decades old and are under pressure from rising demand, extreme weather, and aging components. Failures within these systems can lead to severe cascading impacts, including widespread blackouts, safety incidents, environmental damage, and significant economic losses. By combining Hitachi Energy’s extensive expertise in managing critical infrastructure with Microsoft’s advanced artificial intelligence and data capabilities, operators can transition from reactive problem-solving to proactive, comprehensive, data-driven asset lifecycle management—addressing issues before they occur.Hitachi Energy is reinventing Hitachi Energy’s Ellipse Enterprise Asset Management (EAM) with Microsoft Dynamics 365, Microsoft Fabric, Microsoft 365 Copilot, and Microsoft Foundry – into a unified solution to manage data, analytics, and business operations. It builds on the strategic alliance between Hitachi, Ltd. and Microsoft Corp. announced in June 2024, which established plans to embed Microsoft technologies into Hitachi’s Lumada solutions. Today’s announcement brings that collaboration to the energy sector, and leverages Ellipse’s 40 years of EAM expertise with Microsoft’s advanced technology and capabilities.“Hitachi Energy has decades of experience building and operating the infrastructure that keeps modern life running,” said Massimo Danieli, Executive Vice President and Managing Director of Business Unit Grid Automation at Hitachi Energy. “Microsoft technology accelerates and enhances value to our Ellipse customers, while also bringing to market a solution that is unmatched in terms of IT and OT capabilities, offering essential service providers the ability to operate more intelligently and sustainably.”“Critical Infrastructure operators need insight they can act on. Together with Hitachi Energy, we’re combining AI, cloud, and enterprise systems to help organizations move from reactive maintenance to predictive operations, improving reliability, safety, and long-term value for the infrastructure society depends on” said, Dayan Rodriguez, Corporate Vice President, Manufacturing and Mobility, Microsoft.The solution leverages a combination of advanced digital solutions, including Microsoft Foundry, Fabric, Microsoft 365 Copilot and Microsoft Dynamics 365, to integrate critical datasets supporting asset operations and provide unprecedented visibility of equipment across entire networks. It can recommend the best time for maintenance based on supply chain, HR, and financial data, ultimately helping organizations operate and plan investments more efficiently. This means more reliable services, safer operations, and fewer emergency repairs, which are often the most expensive and disruptive.The Value of IntegrationTraditionally, EAMs and supporting systems, like ERPs and CRMs, operate independently, making data silos. EAM data focuses on asset lifecycle management but can be strengthened when combined with supporting data, like financials, procurement, and workforce planning, often found in an ERP or CRM. This separation often leads to inefficiencies, data duplication, and limited visibility. By integrating these systems, with Microsoft’s Agentic business applications, utilities gain:End-to-End Visibility: A single source of truth for assets, financials, and operations enables better decision-making and compliance.Optimized Asset Management: Real-time data flow between EAM and ERP systems for accurate budgeting, forecasting, and resource allocation.Improved Reliability and Resilience: Predictive maintenance powered by integrated data reduces downtime and extends asset life.Streamlined Processes: Unified workflows eliminate redundancies, accelerate work orders, and improve customer service.Regulatory and Sustainability Alignment: Integrated reporting supports environmental, social, and governance (ESG) goals and regulatory compliance.The Hitachi Energy solution will be delivered through the company’s ecosystem of system integrators, including Hitachi Solutions, a global systems integrator within the Hitachi Group, as the foundational advisor and partner to implementation design. Hitachi Solutions’ recent recognition as Microsoft Dynamics 365 (Finance) Partner of the Year, along with its extensive experience delivering largescale, global digital transformations, will help accelerate adoption and provide consistent, high-quality outcomes for end users.“Hitachi Solutions is proud to support this strategic reinvention and the tremendous impact it can have to drive new efficiencies into critical OT applications,” said Soichiro Ohara, Chairman & CEO, Hitachi Solutions America, Ltd. “Our role is to drive rapid deployment, integration, and business outcomes, ensuring customers realize the full potential of this industry-leading AIdriven solution.”Driving Digital Transformation For customers, this integration can become the backbone and strategic enabler of their digital transformation priorities. It empowers organizations to move from reactive to proactive operations, leverage advanced analytics, and deliver value to customers while controlling costs. This integration transforms tools from passive repositories into dynamic, self-optimizing platforms that consolidate data, automate processes, and drive enterprise-wide efficiency.Ellipse is part of the Asset & Work Management suite of solutions, which supports the HMAX Energy portfolio of digitally enabled services.

Damhead Creek Power StationLondon, UK, Jan 28, 2026 - (JCN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Mitsubishi Power, a power solutions brand of Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Ltd. (MHI), today announced the successful completion of an upgraded reliability package at the 812MW natural gas-fired gas turbine combined cycle (GTCC) power generation plant at Damhead Creek Power Station, which is owned and operated by leading power company VPI.The package for the facility at Damhead Creek consists of different elements which combined will achieve better start up response, increased performance and improved reliability. It also includes an upgrade to the turbine control system.These efficiency and reliability upgrades are vital for gas turbines, given that gas-fired power plants are increasingly being used as essential flexible assets that support intermittent renewable energy. This is especially true in countries like the UK, which have a high degree of renewable penetration and where these plants are required to frequently start and stop generation as and when the system needs it.Javier Cavada, President and CEO for Europe, Middle East and Africa at Mitsubishi Power , commented: "In today’s power grid, GTCCs are crucial - not only for keeping the lights on for homes and businesses - but also for the scale-up of renewable energy, by delivering flexible and reliable power generation. There is no renewable energy without thermal generation providing the reliability, flexibility and security of supply.This evolved role for gas fired generation is critical - but it is also one that places significant stress on GTCC plants generally and on the gas turbines specifically. The completion of the Upgraded Reliability Package at Damhead Creek will ensure that the plant is able to deliver power to homes in a more efficient and more reliable way for years to come, and in doing so, will ensure a more sustainable grid by supporting the integration of more renewable energy sources."The turbines at the GTCC plant were originally delivered to Damhead Creek by Mitsubishi Power in 2000. After purchasing the plant in 2021, VPI signed a service agreement with Mitsubishi Power to deliver a major programme of investment in the site to improve its efficiency and reliability. This included maintenance, management, parts supply and remote monitoring services for the gas turbines at the GTCC plant, and the delivery of the upgraded reliability package.Damhead Creek Power Station is a natural gas-fired power plant located on the Hoo Peninsula in Kent, England. Commissioned in 2001, Damhead Creek is a key source of flexible power for the South-East of England, serving around 1.1 million households. It is owned and operated by VPI.For more information about Mitsubishi Power and its innovations in the energy sector, please visit: https://power.mhi.com/regions/emea/ Copyright 2026 JCN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com.

KAWASAKI, Japan, Jan 28, 2026 - (JCN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Fujitsu Limited and Tokai National Higher Education and Research System (THERS) today announced the successful development of a new technology to predict solar radiation events [1] and their potential impact. The new technology combines probability estimation and the identification of past similar events based on Fujitsu's Wide Learning explainable AI technology which is part of the Fujitsu Kozuchi XAI service.Solar radiation events have been difficult to predict using simple empirical methods based solely on solar flare magnitude. By leveraging AI, this technology extracts complex causal relationships and presents them in an explainable manner. Furthermore, by presenting past solar radiation events similar to those predicted, based on the extracted conditions, it allows for a comprehensive understanding of the actual impact on daily life and corresponding countermeasures that were implemented during those previous events.With this new technology, Fujitsu and THERS aim to establish an environment for promptly determining future solar radiation risks and countermeasures based on scientific evidence, thereby facilitating optimal operational decisions regarding possible lethal threats to astronauts in activities like extravehicular operations, lunar base planning, and crewed transport for lunar and Martian missions.Moving forward, Fujitsu and THERS will enhance the developed technology to protect vulnerable societal infrastructure including power grids, satellite communications, GPS, and polar flights from space weather impacts, thereby showcasing the efficacy of Fujitsu's Wide Learning and positioning it as a foundational technology for a sustainable and resilient society.Figure: Impacts of solar activity and solar radiation events Overview of the new technology Solar activity, including flares and coronal mass ejections (CMEs) [2], impacts societal infrastructure by causing communication outages, degrading GPS accuracy, and inducing power grid currents. Additionally, solar radiation events, while more likely with larger solar flares, pose unpredictable and serious threats to astronauts and satellites due to a weak correlation between flare size and radiation dosage, meaning that even relatively small flares can potentially deliver lethal doses of radiation in space.To address these challenges, Fujitsu and THERS have developed the following technologies to improve the accuracy of solar eruptive event predictions and provide scientific evidence for risk assessment in operational settings:1. Technology for estimating the probability of solar radiation events using Wide LearningUtilizing conditions identified by Wide Learning, the technology automatically selects past solar radiation events that are most similar to current predictions This enables operators to quickly understand not only event probabilities but also potential radiation levels and impacts by referencing data from analogous previous occurrences2.

The forum attracted an enthusiastic response, drawing over 4,000 leaders from governments and business sectors across over 60 countries and regions. Over the two-day forum, over 150 financial officials, leaders of multilateral organisations, representatives from financial institutions and enterprises took the stages as speakers. The forum also launched the inaugural Global Business Summit to further integrate finance with key industries, driving innovation and economic development, while injecting strong momentum into Hong Kong as it embarks on a new chapter in the year ahead by strengthening its role through financial empowerment.The Asian Financial Forum kicked off International Financial Week 2026, marking the first significant financial event in the region this year. AFF’s various sessions, including Plenary Sessions, Keynote Luncheons, a Breakfast Panel and thematic workshops, were all well attended. Guests engaged actively in exchanges on a wide range of trending topics, offering valuable insights and forward-looking perspectives.At the Keynote Luncheon on the first day of AFF, Dr José Manuel Barroso, Former President of the European Commission, Former Prime Minister of Portugal, and the Chairman of the Advisory Board of Goldman Sachs International, delivered a keynote speech on Hong Kong’s pivotal role in fostering regional cooperation and how Asia can draw on Europe’s experience to deepen economic integration. Dr Barroso said: “What we are seeing now is a technological race. This creates instability. And so, the major companies in the world – American, European, but also in Asia – the leaders want to see how they can position their corporations in a favourable position facing the geopolitical risk and the technological risk.”Furthermore, at the Panel Discussion on Global Economic Outlook, Dr Zhu Min, Member of the Senior Expert Advisory Committee of the China Center for International Economic Exchanges (CCIEE), spoke about the opportunities that renminbi internationalisation will bring to Hong Kong. He said: “I see competition among the three major currencies. RMB internationalisation requires liquidity and a bond market – Hong Kong is perfectly positioned to provide this service.”At the forum yesterday, the Financial Services and the Treasury Bureau signed a cooperation agreement with the Shanghai Gold Exchange, marking a significant milestone in strengthening collaboration between the Hong Kong and Shanghai gold markets. The agreement established a high-level cooperative governance framework for Hong Kong’s central gold clearing system, explored opportunities for coordinated development of physical infrastructure, and enhanced market connectivity. This initiative represented an important step forward in Hong Kong’s development as an international gold trading hub.The inaugural Global Business Summit, co-organised by the Financial Services and the Treasury Bureau of the HKSAR Government, HKTDC and the Office for Attracting Strategic Enterprises (OASES), was held today as part of AFF. The summit opened with welcome remarks delivered by Paul Chan, Financial Secretary of the HKSAR Government, and Prof Frederick Ma, Chairman of the HKTDC.Prof Ma said: “Financial services help industries and investors maximise their investments and their impact. This will have far-reaching benefits, supporting continued technological breakthroughs, as well as closer integration and sustainable development. In this sense, the Global Business Summit reflects the greater emphasis we are placing on co-creation at this year’s AFF. In these unpredictable times, working together on shared goals adds to the agility and resilience of our economies, our industries and businesses, and our communities. Hong Kong, under the “One Country, Two Systems” arrangement, is perfectly suited to host these conversations and promote cross-sector collaboration, as a superconnector, super value-adder and supercollaborator. Our city is home to businesses from around the world. It is a bustling two-way gateway between the Chinese Mainland and the rest of the world – helping high-growth enterprises from the Chinese Mainland to go global, while enabling high-growth foreign enterprises to enter China.”A Pledging Ceremony today demonstrated the commitment of HKSAR Government, the HKTDC and AFF Partners in working together to assist Chinese Mainland enterprises in going global via the Hong Kong platform and to integrate into overall national development. AFF Partners included EY, HSBC, Bank of China (Hong Kong), Standard Chartered, UBS, CICC, Huatai Securities, Bank of Communication (Hong Kong) and China CITIC Bank International.

TOKYO, Jan 28, 2026 - (JCN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - NEC Corporation (NEC; TSE: 6701) today announced the development of a high-efficiency, compact Power Amplifier Module (PAM) for the sub-6GHz band, designed for integration into 5G base station Radio Units (RUs).PAMs are electronic components that amplify signals for long-distance radio transmission, and their power consumption accounts for approximately 75% of the total power consumed by an RU (*1). By integrating this high-efficiency PAM into RUs, NEC aims to reduce device power consumption and size, thereby contributing to overall power savings in 5G networks and reduced operational costs for telecommunication carriers.NEC plans to incorporate this PAM into new RUs scheduled for release in the first half of fiscal year 2026 (*2) and also envisions a global deployment of the PAM as a standalone product, including its application in base stations from other manufacturers.New Power Amplifier Module for 5G Base Station Radio Units (Front/Back)This PAM achieves both high efficiency and compactness, which has been challenging until now, by integrating NEC's strengths in high-efficiency circuit design technology using Gallium Nitride (GaN) devices, high-density mounting technology, and simulation expertise related to load modulation methods. Specifically, it achieves a high Power-Added Efficiency (PAE) of 50%, indicating the proportion of supplied DC power that can be used for amplifying radio signals. This results in a 10% reduction in power consumption compared to conventional PAMs (*3). Furthermore, it boasts a compact form factor of 10mm x 6mm.Since 5G networks utilize higher frequency bands compared to 4G, the coverage area of a single RU is relatively narrower. Therefore, to ensure comprehensive coverage across wide areas and even behind buildings, more RUs need to be deployed. By integrating this PAM into RUs, NEC aims to reduce the power consumption of individual RUs, contributing to overall power savings in 5G networks and lowering operational costs for telecommunication carriers.NEC will showcase this PAM at "MWC Barcelona 2026 (MWC2026)," the world's largest mobile-related exhibition, scheduled from March 2 to 5, 2026. At the venue, NEC will highlight the PAM's features, high-efficiency operation, energy-saving effects, and increased design flexibility for equipment.Going forward, NEC will continue to provide technologies that balance energy efficiency and high performance to realize sustainable network infrastructure.Some of the technologies used in the new device were obtained from a grant program (JPJ012368G50801) by the National Institute of Information and Communications Technology (NICT), Japan.(*1) According to NEC research (as of January 28, 2026)(*2) Press release: NEC Develops New 5G Base Station Radio Unit for Enhanced Communication Throughput, Compactness, and Energy Efficiency https://www.nec.com/en/press/202601/global_20260123_01.html(*3) According to NEC research (as of January 28, 2026)About NECThe NEC Group leverages technology to create social value and promote a more sustainable world where everyone has the chance to reach their full potential.

Broad Mineralized Zones with High-Grade Vein Intercepts at "Trend #1", Extending New Mineralization to 1,450 Metres Vertical Depth, 375 Metres Below the Existing Mineral ResourcesOB-25-322W3 intersected 23.37 grams per tonne ("g/t") gold ("Au") over 4.0 metres (core length) including 60.60 g/t Au over 1.5 metres and 2.50 g/t Au over 19.0 metres including 4.94 g/t Au over 1.5 metres and including 3.93 g/t Au over 3.0 metres;OB-25-322W4 intersected 2.37 g/t Au over 11.5 metres including 10.89 g/t Au over 1.0 metre;2. Completion of Final 14th and 15th Wedges from Pilot Hole OB-24-337, Continuing the Delineation of New Mineralization in Multiple Veins Beneath the Historic Mine Workings OB-25-337W15 intersected 5.38 g/t Au over 4.5 metres including 8.86 g/t Au over 1.5 metres;OB-25-337W14 intersected 1.49 g/t Au over 16.1 metres including 4.26 g/t Au over 1.5 metres and including 3.37 g/t Au over 1.5 metres;3. Deepest Ever Intercept Beneath the Historic Mine with a New, Deep Pilot Hole Extending Mineralization to 1,620 Metres Vertical Depth and Providing Platform for Further DrillingOB-25-378 intersected 15.70 g/t Au over 1.1 metres;Matt Manson, President and CEO: "This latest batch of drill assays from O'Brien contain notable results from several areas of focus in our 140,000 metre step-out drill program. We continue to push the limits of known mineralization at O'Brien outwards and downwards. Two wedges completed from drill hole OB-24-322 demonstrate more characteristic zones of broad and mineralized alteration with high-grade quartz-sulphide-gold veins, pushing the known extents of the Project's "Trend #1" to a new depth extent of 1,450 metres. Beneath the historic O'Brien Mine, we have been reporting for the past 12 months the progressive delineation of a broad system of high-grade veins showing good continuity with the former mine workings above. The final two wedges drilled from the pilot hole OB-24-337 have also successfully intercepted these veins with reliable consistency. In fact, each of the fifteen wedges drilled from this pilot hole have returned vein intercepts with grades and thicknesses consistent with the Project's mineral resources: a 100% success rate in this developing area. Now, new pilot hole OB-25-378, representing a step-down in depth again, has intercepted further, multiple mineralized zones and high-grades, pushing this area of gold mineralization down to 1,620 metres vertical depth, the deepest intercepts yet achieved at the Project. We have not yet found the bottom of the O'Brien gold system. Six rigs are active at the Project site, with two more rigs mobilizing shortly."Figure 1: Longitudinal Vertical Section and Plan View of Gold Vein Mineralization and Mineral Resources at the O'Brien Gold Project, with Today's Drill Holes IllustratedTo view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/10977/281737_74e08c8d6491c912_001full.jpgTable 1: Assay Results from Select Drill HolesDDHZone From(m) To(m) CoreLength(m)Au g/t -UncutHost LithologyOB-25-322W3Trend #1 1,379.51,381.01.503.24V3-S 1,443.51,444.81.305.31POR-S 1,472.0 1,491.0 19.002.50 S1p/POR-N Including 1,477.0 1,478.5 1.504.94 S1p Including 1,484.5 1,487.5 3.003.93 S1p 1,531.0 1,535.0 4.0023.37 POR-N/V3-N Including 1,532.5 1,534.0 1.5060.60 POR-N/V3-N OB-25-322W4Trend #1 1,250.01,251.51.503.85V3-S 1,341.5 1,353.0 11.502.37 POR-S Including 1,347.5 1,348.5 1.0010.89 POR-S OB-25-337W14O'Brien Mine East 1,206.01,210.04.003.13V3-S 1,209.01,210.01.004.70V3-S 1,215.4 1,231.5 16.101.49 POR-S/V3-CEN Including 1,218.0 1,219.5 1.504.26 POR-S/V3-CEN Including 1,225.5 1,227.0 1.503.37 POR-S/V3-CEN 1,237.51,240.32.803.81V3-CEN 1,239.01,240.31.307.11V3-CEN 1,272.01,273.51.508.48S1pOB-25-337W15O'Brien Mine East 1,247.01,251.04.005.11V3-CEN 1,248.01,249.01.009.84V3-CEN 1,306.0 1,310.5 4.505.38 V3-N Including 1,307.5 1,309.0 1.508.86 V3-N OB-25-377W1O'Brien Mine West 1,204.9 1,214.3 9.403.48 V3-CEN Including 1,206.4 1,210.7 4.305.92 V3-CEN 1,224.91,226.01.103.00V3-CEN / S1p 1,243.01,245.02.004.74S1pIncluding1,244.01,245.01.006.44S1pOB-25-377W2O'Brien Mine West 1,302.01,303.01.008.09POR-N 1,327.71,329.82.103.67V3-NOB-25-378O'Brien Mine East 1,665.51,667.01.503.07POR-S 1,673.8 1,674.9 1.1015.70 POR-S 1,681.31,682.31.003.47POR-S 1,702.61,704.01.403.26V3-CEN Notes on Calculation of Drill Intercepts:The O'Brien Gold Project Mineral Resource Estimate effective May 6, 2025 ("MRE") utilizes a 2.20 g/t Au bottom cut-off, a US$2,000 gold price, a minimum mining width of 1.2 metres, and a 40 g/t Au upper cap on composites. Intercepts presented in Table 1 are calculated with a 3.00 g/t Au bottom cut-off. True widths, based on depth of intercept and drill hole inclination, are estimated to be 30-80% of core length. Table 2 presents additional drill intercepts calculated with a 1.00 g/t bottom cut-off over a minimum 1.0 metre core length so as to illustrate the frequency and continuity of mineralized intervals within which high-grade gold veins at O'Brien are developed. Lithology Codes: PON-S3: Pontiac Sediments; V3-S, V3-N, V3-CEN: Basalt-South, North, Central; S1P, S3P: Conglomerate; POR-S, POR-N: Porphyry South, North; TX: Crystal Tuff; ZFLLC: Larder Lake-Cadillac Fault Zone.Gold Mineralization at O'BrienGold mineralizing quartz-sulphide veins at O'Brien occur within a thin band of interlayered mafic volcanic rocks, conglomerates, and porphyritic andesitic sills of the Piché Group occurring in contact with the east-west oriented Larder Lake-Cadillac Break ("LLCB"). Gold, along with pyrite and arsenopyrite, is typically associated with shearing and a pervasive biotite alteration, and developed within multiple Piché Group lithologies and, occasionally, the hanging-wall Pontiac and footwall Cadillac meta-sedimentary rocks.As mapped at the historic O'Brien mine, and now replicated in the modern drilling, individual veins are generally narrow, ranging from several centimetres up to several metres in thickness. Multiple veins occur sub-parallel to each other, as well as sub-parallel to the Piché lithologies and the LLCB. Individual veins have well-established lateral continuity, with steeply plunging grade shoots developed over significant lengths. Based on the historic data available, it is clear that the former mine was "high-graded", with mining focussed on a main central stope and parallel veins identified but left undeveloped.The historic O'Brien mine produced over half a million ounces of gold from such veins and shoots at an average grade exceeding 15 g/t Au and over a vertical extent of at least 1,000 metres. Modern exploration has focussed on delineating well developed vein mineralization to the east of the historic mine, with additional high-grade shoots becoming evident in the exploration data over what has been described as a series of repeating trends ("Trend #s 0 to 5").Figure 2: Deep Step-Out Drill Holes Completed and/or Published by the Company since December 2024To view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/10977/281737_74e08c8d6491c912_003full.jpgStep-Out Drilling at O'BrienSince the end of 2024, Radisson has been pursuing a program of broad step-outs beneath the historic O'Brien Gold mine and the existing mineral resources designed to test the extent of mineralization at the Project. This drilling is accomplished with pilot holes followed by wedges and directional drilling to maximize drill efficiency. On October 16, 2025, Radisson announced the expansion of the step-out drill program to 140,000 metres employing an eventual eight drill rigs. Since this program began, 84% of completed drill holes have intersected gold mineralization with grades and core-lengths consistent with the Project's Mineral Resources (Table 2).Table 2: Drill Results Published for the O'Brien Gold Project since December 2024Date of PublicationTotal Number of Drill HolesDrill Holes withIntercepts >+3g/tSuccess Rate (%)January 27th, 202677100%January 6th, 20266583%28th October 2025151387%8th September, 2025151387%16th July 2025141179%2nd April 202533100%26th February 2025201575%16th December 202411100%Total816884% The origin of the step-out drill program was the deep pilot hole OB-24-337, which was the first exploration drill hole located below the former mine workings since mining ended in 1957. This hole intersected 31.24 g/t Au over 8.0 metres, including 242.0 g/t Au over 1.0 metre at approximately 1,500 metres vertical depth (see Radisson news release dated December 16, 2024). With today's results, a full complement of assay results from all fifteen wedges drilled from OB-24-337 have now been reported and up to eight gold-bearing veins have been delineated. Drilling in this area will now focus on new pilot hole OB-25-378 which has been successfully completed to a vertical depth of 1,740 metres. This hole has returned multiple zones of alteration and gold mineralization, showing continuity with the multiple-vein system modelled above, and a high-grade vein intercept of 15.70 g/t Au over 1.1 metres at 1,620 metres vertical depth, the deepest intercept ever returned at the Project. Taken together, the results extend the area of new mineralization beneath the historic mine workings to approximately 250 metres (east-west) by 600 metres (vertical). Drilling of the first wedge from pilot hole OB-25-378 is currently underway.Today's release includes drill assays from two wedges completed from pilot hole OB-24-322 testing the downward extension of the Project's "Trend #1". Both wedges returned broad zones of mineralized alteration with high-grade vein intercepts, including OB-25-322W3 with 23.37 g/t Au over 4.0 metres including 60.60 g/t Au over 1.5 metres. Recall that drilling in this area has returned similarly high-grade intercepts, including OB-24-324 with 27.61 g/t Au over 6.0 metres including 102.0 g/t Au over 1.1 metres and 6.83 g/t Au over 10.0 metres including 40.2 g/t Au over 1.5 metres, and the OB-24-322 pilot hole itself which returned 8.75 g/t Au over 5.2 metres including 27.2 g/t Au over 1.4 metres (Figure 3 and Radisson news release dated September 24, 2024). These results, taken together, have extended gold mineralization at Trend #1 to 1,450 metres vertical depth, 375 metres below the current Mineral Resources.Today's release also includes results from two wedges from pilot hole OB-25-377 located between the western and eastern portions of the former mine (Figure 1). These holes have returned multiple zones of mineralization, such as OB-25-377W1 with 3.48 g/t Au over 9.4 metres including 5.92 g/t Au over 4.3 metres. This area had previously been thought to have lower potential for new mineral resources, given the absence of mining stopes above. The new intercepts illustrate the broad extent of the O'Brien gold mineralizing system and the high-grading nature of the former mine.Figure 3: Vertical Cross Section through "Trend #1 with Pilot Holes OB-24-322 and 324, and WedgesTo view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/10977/281737_74e08c8d6491c912_004full.jpgTable 3: Detailed Assay Results (see "Notes on Calculation of Drill Intercepts")DDHZone From(m) To(m) CoreLength(m)Au g/t -UncutHost LithologyOB-25-322W3Trend #1 1,379.5 1,381.0 1.503.24V3-S 1,440.51,444.84.302.48POR-SIncluding 1,443.5 1,444.8 1.305.31POR-S 1,472.01,491.019.002.50S1p/POR-NIncluding 1,477.0 1,478.5 1.504.94S1pIncluding 1,484.5 1,487.5 3.003.93S1p 1,531.0 1,535.0 4.0023.37POR-N/V3-NIncluding 1,532.5 1,534.0 1.5060.60POR-N/V3-N 1,538.21,539.51.301.28S3pOB-25-322W4Trend #1 1,247.01,251.54.502.57V3-SIncluding 1,250.0 1,251.5 1.503.85V3-S 1,334.01,335.51.501.55POR-S 1,341.51,353.011.502.37POR-SIncluding 1,347.5 1,348.5 1.0010.89POR-S 1,360.21,364.24.001.10POR-S 1,377.51,383.56.001.28S1p 1,405.01,406.51.501.40POR-NOB-25-337W14O'Brien Mine East 1,109.01,110.51.503.06PON-S3 1,188.01,189.51.501.24V3-S 1,195.51,197.01.501.81V3-S 1,206.0 1,210.0 4.003.13V3-SIncluding 1,209.0 1,210.0 1.004.70V3-S 1,215.41,231.516.101.49POR-S/V3-CENIncluding 1,218.0 1,219.5 1.504.26POR-S/V3-CENIncluding 1,225.5 1,227.0 1.503.37POR-S/V3-CEN 1,237.5 1,240.3 2.803.81V3-CENIncluding 1,239.0 1,240.3 1.307.11V3-CEN 1,264.51,266.01.501.05S1p 1,272.0 1,273.5 1.508.48S1p 1,283.31,284.81.502.09TX 1,328.01,329.51.502.58S3pOB-25-337W15O'Brien Mine East 1,239.01,240.11.101.11POR-S 1,247.0 1,251.0 4.005.11V3-CENIncluding 1,248.0 1,249.0 1.009.84V3-CEN 1,282.51,284.01.501.06S1p 1,293.01,294.01.001.13POR-N 1,296.01,297.41.401.74POR-N 1,298.91,300.01.101.34V3-N 1,306.0 1,310.5 4.505.38V3-NIncluding 1,307.5 1,309.0 1.508.86V3-NOB-25-377W1O'Brien Mine West 1,196.91,197.91.001.44V3-CEN 1,204.9 1,214.3 9.403.48V3-CENIncluding 1,206.4 1,210.7 4.305.92V3-CEN 1,222.01,227.55.501.94V3-CEN / S1pIncluding 1,224.9 1,226.0 1.103.00V3-CEN / S1p 1,235.01,236.51.502.80S1p 1,243.0 1,245.0 2.004.74S1pIncluding 1,244.0 1,245.0 1.006.44S1p 1,249.01,250.01.001.18S1p 1,271.51,272.71.201.30V3-NOB-25-377W2O'Brien Mine West 1,206.61,210.53.901.76POR-S / V3-CEN 1,291.01,296.05.001.10S1p 1,297.41,304.57.102.03POR-NIncluding 1,302.0 1,303.0 1.008.09 POR-N 1,327.71,333.55.801.97V3-NIncluding 1,327.7 1,329.8 2.103.67V3-NOB-25-378O'Brien Mine East 1,653.01,654.51.501.10POR-S 1,664.01,667.03.002.14POR-SIncluding 1,665.5 1,667.0 1.503.07 POR-S 1,673.8 1,674.9 1.1015.70 POR-S 1,681.31,689.98.601.15POR-SIncluding 1,681.3 1,682.3 1.003.47 POR-S 1,701.51,704.02.502.40V3-CENIncluding 1,702.6 1,704.0 1.403.26 V3-CEN 1,713.51,715.01.503.47S1p 1,746.51,748.01.502.01TX Table 4: Drill Hole Collar Information for Holes contained in this News Release HELLODDHZoneEastingNorthingAzimuthDipHole Length (m)OB-25-322W3Trend #169419953450980-85.0687.0OB-25-322W4Trend #169419953450980-85.0650.0OB-25-337W14O'Brien Mine East6937005345070346-79.5460.0OB-25-337W15O'Brien Mine East6937005345070346-79.5476.0OB-25-377W1O'Brien Mine West6932725345054345-79.5686.0OB-25-377W2O'Brien Mine West6932725345054345-79.5710.0OB-25-378O'Brien Mine East6936405345014357-83.01820.0Notes:Hole lengths for wedges represent meterage from point of wedge.

TOKYO, Japan, Jan 27, 2026 - (JCN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - NTT DOCOMO, INC. announced today that it has developed a solution to streamline pre-publication advertiser review operations for Digital Out-of-Home (DOOH) advertising, including digital signage and large-format displays in public and urban spaces, in collaboration with LIVE BOARD, Inc.The solution improves the efficiency of advertiser review processes conducted prior to DOOH ad distribution. By applying large language models (LLMs) to multiple review items that were previously handled manually, the solution is expected to reduce digital advertiser review workloads by over 30%.DOOH advertiser reviews require checks against publicly available information on advertisers and compliance with various guidelines. As the volume of DOOH ad placements has increased significantly in recent years, review time and operational costs have become major challenges. DOOH ad reviews generally consist of two components: advertiser review and creative review. This newly developed solution focuses on streamlining advertiser reviews, which verify advertiser credibility as a prerequisite for DOOH ad distribution.Figure 1. Solution Application OverviewWhen using LLMs for advertiser reviews, two limitations arise: limited information freshness and limited access to external resources. The former refers to the difficulty of keeping information up to date, while the latter includes issues such as invalid URLs generated by LLMs. To address these challenges, DOCOMO developed this new solution by integrating five core technologies, enabling the AI to quickly obtain accurate and sufficient information for advertiser reviews.Core Technologies of the SolutionWeb search-based grounding technologyAutomated generation of company profile research resultsAutomated generation of legal compliance review resultsAutomated generation of risk assessment resultsAutomated generation of media-specific competitor analysis resultsGoing forward, DOCOMO aims to develop an AI-based technology to streamline creative reviews by applying AI to manual repetitive visual checks of video content for large public displays from the perspective of broadcast ethics and legal regulations. In addition, the company will continue to further enhance the efficiency of DOOH advertising review operations, aiming to refine advertising-related technologies and revitalize the advertising business. Through this, DOCOMO will pursue research and development to optimize the entirety of DOOH operations.AppendixOverview of the DOOH Advertiser Review Solution1.Overview Advertiser reviews verify credibility and compliance based on multiple checks, including company profiles, legal compliance, risk, and media-specific competition. For the investigation, various information available on the internet will be required, such as the advertiser's name, product name, official website, and detailed pages related to the product. This solution consolidates information gathering and multi-angle reviews using online data, and outputs review decisions with supporting reasons. By automating processes previously handled manually, it is expected to improve efficiency by more than 30%.2.System ConfigurationThe solution integrates web search-based grounding with automated generation of company profile, legal compliance, risk, and media-specific competitor review results. By combining these technologies with review criteria databases and diverse online information sources, and designing them around advertiser review workflows and expertise, the system enables accurate and timely retrieval of relevant information and the rapid, integrated execution of multiple review processes.System Framework2.1 Web Search-Based Grounding TechnologyWhen generating responses, the AI references external web search services to access up-to-date and reliable sources and produces outputs based on that information.2.2 Automated Company Profile GenerationThe AI accurately retrieves and displays company profile information from official websites, including company name, headquarters location, date of establishment, capital, representative, business description, and contact URLs or phone numbers.2.3 Automated Legal Compliance ReviewThe AI collects the latest information on an advertiser's legal compliance from multiple sources, conducts assessments based on current data, and outputs review results.2.4 Automated Risk AssessmentUsing the latest publicly available information from various sources, the AI evaluates potential risks related to the advertiser and outputs assessment results.2.5 Automated Media-Specific Competitor ReviewBased on the advertiser's industry and products, the AI accesses a review criteria database containing media-specific competition checks and product-based standards, and outputs eligible media, media names, and a detailed summary file of the review results.By integrating these component technologies, DOCOMO will further improve the efficiency of the advertiser review process.
