## Exhibit 99.1

**EXHIBIT 99.1**

**Foremost Clean Energy Announces 5,000-Metre Follow-Up Drill Program at Hatchet Lake Uranium Project**

**Planned Drilling to Follow Up Drill Hole TF-25-16 Uranium Discovery and Test Additional High Priority Targets**

VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Feb. 09, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- **Foremost Clean Energy Ltd. (NASDAQ: FMST) (CSE: FAT) ("<u>Foremost</u>"** or the **"Company")** is pleased to announce a 5,000-metre diamond drill program is anticipated to commence mid February at its Hatchet Lake Uranium Project ("**Hatchet Lake**"), located in the eastern Athabasca Basin region of northern Saskatchewan (Figure 1). The program is designed to follow-up the Company's highly successful inaugural 2025 winter drill program, which resulted in a new promising uranium discovery. Uranium mineralization was intersected in a previously unexplored 600-meter gap between historic drill holes in the Tuning Fork target area as first reported on May 1, 2025. The discovery hole, TF-25-16, intersected 0.87% U₃O₈ over 0.45 metres within a broader 6.2-metre interval averaging 0.10% U₃O₈ (see news release October 29, 2025). Follow-up drilling in 2025 extended strong hydrothermal alteration at least 50 metres along strike to the northeast. These alteration features are characteristic of unconformity-related uranium systems and may indicate proximity to a larger mineralized system.

Jason Barnard, Foremost's President and CEO, commented: ***"This upcoming 5,000-metre drill program represents a significant next step at Hatchet Lake and is designed to systematically follow up on the TF-25-16 discovery. The results from our completed 2025 drill program confirmed the presence of a fertile uranium system at the Tuning Fork target, and the additional geophysical work completed since has materially expanded our target inventory across the property. With multiple drill-ready targets now defined, and with the benefit of Denison Mines' ("Denison"* NYSE American: DNN, TSX: DML*) historical drilling and geophysical work that helped establish the technical framework for Hatchet Lake, we believe the timing is ideal to execute a focused winter program, particularly with uranium prices recently reaching the US$100-per-pound level. This program is designed to expand on the discovery and test additional high-priority targets in one of the world's premier uranium districts, the Athabasca Basin."***

**Figure 1. Hatchet Lake Project – Regional Map**

**Drill Plan and Focus**

Hatchet Lake is comprised of two claim blocks, Hatchet Lake South and Hatchet Lake North, each containing multiple drill-ready targets characterized by geological, structural, and geophysical responses consistent with unconformity-related uranium mineralization (Figures 2 to 5). Primary Target Areas for the 2026 drill program are Tuning Fork and the Beta Grid at Hatchet Lake South and the Richardson SE area at Hatchet Lake North.

The drill program's primary focus will be the new uranium discovery at Tuning Fork, highlighted by drill hole TF-25-16, with step-out and follow-up drilling designed to test continuity and refine controls on mineralization. The program will also test multiple high-priority zones identified through Denison's historical drilling and geophysical interpretation, enhanced by Foremost's modern reprocessing and reinterpretation of historic magnetic and electromagnetic data, including conductor modelling to better constrain target geometry, depth, and orientation. This integrated approach strengthens drill targeting and execution.

<u>Tuning Fork Target Area</u> (Figure 3)

*TF-25-16 Discovery Area*

The drill program will prioritize step-out and infill drilling around TF-25-16 to test along-strike and down-dip continuity of mineralization, refine structural controls, with the aim of vectoring towards further uranium mineralization. TF-25-16 intersected 0.87% U₃O₈ over 0.45 metres within a broader 6.2-metre interval averaging 0.10% U₃O₈ (see news release October 29, 2025) at the Athabasca unconformity, associated with strong hydrothermal alteration validating the high-potential for additional uranium mineralization.

*Tuning Fork West*

At Tuning Fork West, recent processing and interpretation of historic VTEM data has identified a previously untested electromagnetic conductor approximately 1.2 kilometres in strike length. This conductor is coincident with a contact between magnetic highs and magnetic lows, interpreted to represent a lithological boundary between metasedimentary rocks and granitic basement. This geological setting is widely recognized as favourable for the formation of unconformity-related uranium deposits within the Athabasca Basin representing a high-priority, drill-ready target.

*Tuning Fork East*

The Tuning Fork East target is supported by previous drilling, including TF-25-13, which intersected 2.5m at 0.03% U<sub>3</sub>O<sub>8</sub> (see news release October 29, 2025) at the Athabasca unconformity along with anomalous pathfinder elements. This area remains underexplored, and additional drilling is planned to test strike extensions of conductive and alteration trends with the aid of updated geophysical interpretation.

**Figure 3. Hatchet Lake South – Tuning Fork Target Areas**

**Beta Grid Target Area** (Figure 4)

The Beta Grid represents a compelling structurally controlled target within Hatchet Lake South. Historic drilling identified a 20.3-metre offset in the depth to the Athabasca unconformity between drill holes HT-125 and HT-126. Hole HT-126, located to the west-northwest of HT-125, intersected the unconformity at a depth of 122.5 metres, compared to 142.8 metres in HT-125<sup>1</sup>. This relationship is anomalous, as unconformity depths in the Athabasca Basin typically increase toward the west-northwest in the Hatchet Lake South area. The observed offset is interpreted to reflect an east-directed thrust fault, likely associated with a graphitic structural corridor highlighted by a coincident VTEM conductor. Structural disruption of this nature is a key control on uranium mineralization in the Athabasca Basin, and the Beta Grid will be tested with targeted drilling designed to evaluate this interpreted fault zone.

**Hatchet Lake North Target Area**

<u>Richardson SE Target Area</u> (Figure 5)

The Richardson SE target area is located within Hatchet Lake North and straddles the Athabasca Basin margin, a highly prospective setting for unconformity-related uranium deposits. The broader Richardson Trend is situated northeasterly of the interpreted extents of the Laroque Conductive Corridor (See Figure 1), which is host to multiple occurrences of high-grade uranium mineralization, including IsoEnergy's Hurricane Deposit, hosting a current Mineral Resource of 48.6 Mlb U₃O₈ at 34.5% U₃O₈ Indicated, and 2.7 Mlb U₃O₈ at 2.2% U₃O₈ Inferred.<sup>2</sup>

Richardson SE contains more than 5 kilometres of untested electromagnetic conductor strike length, defined through historic VTEM data and supported by conductor modelling. A ground gravity survey was recently completed over the Richardson SE area, and results from this survey are currently being integrated with geological and electromagnetic datasets to refine drill targets, with a focus on identifying zones of structural complexity and hydrothermal alteration.

Foremost cautions that past results or discoveries on adjacent properties may not necessarily be indicative to the presence of mineralization on the company's properties, including the Hatchet Lake Property.

**Exploration Outlook**

The drill program is intended to follow up the new Tuning Fork Discovery in drill hole TF-25-16 with step-out and infill drilling while also advancing additional drill-ready targets generated through integrated geological and geophysical interpretation and modelling. Foremost believes this, combined with newly identified untested conductors, displacement of the Athabasca unconformity, and confirmed structural complexity, make Hatchet Lake a compelling project for further uranium discoveries.
