ALASKA ENERGY METALS CORPORATION

ANNOUNCES NEW DIRECTOR APPOINTMENT

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA, May 2, 2023 – Alaska Energy Metals Corporation (TSX-

V: AEMC, OTCQB: MLRKD) (“Alaska Energy Metals” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce

that Corri Feige has been appointed to the Company’s Board of Directors.

Alaska Energy Metal’s President & CEO Gregory Beischer commented: “We are really pleased

to have Corri join our company! She has great energy, vision, and leadership skills, but, most

importantly, she has boundless enthusiasm for resource-centered economic development in

Alaska. Her enthusiasm is infectious! With many connections in the Alaska resource, finance,

and government communities, we look forward to Ms. Feige having a positive impact on our

newly relaunched company.”

Corri Feige commented: “I am very pleased to join the AEMC team and help deliver critical

energy transition metals to the market. The potential of the Nikolai nickel – copper – cobalt –

platinum group element project is tremendous and stands as a great example of Alaska’s critical

mineral endowment. With nickel and cobalt demand estimated to increase by 1,900% and

4,000% respectively over the next 15 years, Nikolai, and projects like it, will be on the leading

edge of meeting the mineral demands of electrification and new energy storage technologies for

years to come.”

Corri Feige is presently the President and Principal of Terra Piniun LLC. This Anchorage-based

consulting firm specializes in communications, regulatory issues, permitting, land use and

project planning in resource development with particular focus on mining and petroleum.
