Drilling Commences at K.Hill

OAKVILLE, Ontario, November 02, 2020 -- Giyani Metals Corp. (TSXV:EMM, GR:A2DUU8) (" Giyani" or

the "Company") is pleased to announce, pursuant to the September 21, 2020 announcement, drilling has

commenced at the Company’s K.Hill manganese project in Botswana (“K.Hill”).

The objective of the infill drilling program is to upgrade the current Inferred Mineral Resource at K.Hill into

the Indicated Mineral Resource category, from which a CIM Code compliant Reserve can be estimated.

The program consists of 90 holes and approximately 2,700m of reverse circulation (" RC") drilling, as well

as 9 holes and 250m of diamond core ("DC") drilling.

For more information on the drilling plan please refer to the Company’s September 21, 2020 announcement.

Robin Birchall, CEO of Giyani Metals Corp. commented:

"I am very pleased that our team has been able to commence the drilling programme given the significant

COVID-19 protocols in place across Botswana. We would like to thank the Government of Botswana for

promptly granting the Essential Services Permits needed for the drilling program, as well as supporting

every stage of the mobilisation of Stewardship Drilling from Namibia to K.Hill. We will update the market in

due course on our progress.”
