ALASKA ENERGY METALS FILES UPDATED NI 43-101
TECHNICAL REPORT FOR THE EUREKA DEPOSIT, NIKOLAI
NICKEL PROJECT, ALASKA, USA
2025 Mineral Resource Estimate for Eureka Deposit Significantly Increases
Tonnage, Metal Content and Grade
Findings Align With U.S. Government Effort to Strengthen Critical Mineral
Supply Chains
VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA, April 21, 2025 – Alaska Energy Metals Corporation
(TSX-V: AEMC, OTCQB: AKEMF) (“AEMC” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that it
has filed an Updated National Instrument 43-101 Technical Report (the “Technical Report”
or the “Report”) on SEDAR+ for its 100% owned Eureka Property, Nikolai Nickel Project in
Alaska, USA.
With the Nikolai deposit hosting seven Critical Minerals, two of which are Defense
Production Act Title III materials “essential for the national defense,” the announcement
aligns with a series of U.S. presidential executive orders to strengthen U.S. critical mineral
supply chains, including EO 14241 “Immediate Measures to Increase American Mineral
Production” and EO 14153 entitled “Unleashing Alaska’s Tremendous Resource Potential.”
Highlights of the Updated Technical Report and Mineral Resource Estimate include:
• The new Eureka deposit Mineral Resource Estimate (“2025 MRE”) has increased the
tonnage, metal content, and grade, relative to the 2024 Mineral Resource
Estimate, dated February 12, 2024
o In situ Indicated resource contains 1,190 million tonnes at a grade of
0.30% NiEq (0.42% NiEq including chromium and iron), a 46% increase in
tonnage.
o In situ Inferred resource contains 2,087 million tonnes at a grade of 0.28%
NiEq (0.39% NiEq including chromium and iron), a 133% increase in
tonnage.

• Chromium and iron have been included in the 2025 MRE. 7.88 billion pounds of
chromium and 117 million tonnes of iron are added to the in situ Indicated
resource. 12.29 billion pounds of chromium and 205 million tonnes of iron are
added to the in situ Inferred resource.
• The Eureka Zone 2 (“EZ2”), within the Central Eureka deposit, contains an in situ
Indicated resource of 818 million tonnes at a grade of 0.32% NiEq (0.44% NiEq with
chromium and iron) and an in situ Inferred resource of 951 million tonnes at a
grade of 0.31% NiEq (0.42% NiEq with chromium and iron).
• The Central Eureka Zone 2 (“CEZ2”), a subset of the Central Eureka EZ2 deposit,
now has continuity along ~ 2.5 km of strike length. This higher-grade core
contains an in situ Indicated resource of 225 million tonnes at a grade of 0.39%
NiEq (0.52% NiEq including chromium and iron) and an in situ Inferred resource of
246 million tonnes at a grade of 0.36% NiEq (0.48% NiEq including chromium and
iron).
The Report titled “Nikolai Project Mineral Resource Estimate 2025 Update” is dated April
21st, 2025 and supports the disclosure made by the company in its March 10th, 2025 press
release titled “Alaska Energy Metals Announces Major Increases in Mineral Resource
Estimate, Nikolai Nickel Project, Alaska, USA.”
The Independent MRE and Updated Technical Report were prepared by Stantec Consulting
Services, Inc. in accordance with National Instrument 43-101 regulations. The Report can be
found under the Company’s profile on SEDAR+ (www.sedarplus.ca) and on Alaska Energy
Metals website (www.alaskaenergymetals.com).
Alaska Energy Metals President & CEO Gregory Beischer commented: “The updated Mineral
Resource Estimate shows a very substantial increase in tonnage and metal content. Nikolai
represents the largest accumulation of nickel in the United States and contains six other critical
and strategic metals. With the Trump Administration moving to strengthen U.S. Critical Mineral
supply chains as a key policy priority, the deposit may prove to be very valuable to the United
States as a secure, domestic source of these metals. The next steps for the Company are
completion of metallurgical studies followed by economic analysis, and we expect to complete
these studies in the coming months.”
