New Energy Metals Commences Exploration on Roslyn Lithium Property
Vancouver, British Columbia, October 26, 2023, New Energy Metals Corp. (TSXV: ENRG) (OTCQB:
NRGYF) (“New Energy” or the “ Company “ ) is pleased to announce the initiation of exploration
activities at the Roslyn Lithium Property (the "Property") in the Georgia Lake Pegmatite Field located
50 km northeast of Nipigon, Ontario. The Property comprises of 8 mining claims (195 cells) covering
approximately 4,215 hectares. The Georgia Lake Pegmatite Field is being aggressively explored and
developed by Roch Tech Lithium (TSXV:RCK), Imagine Lithium (TSXV:ILI) and Ultra Lithium (TSXV:ULT)
(Figure 1). Field crews have mobilized and are conducting mapping, prospecting, and sampling.

Highlights
During the current phase of exploration, an experienced field team has been deployed to conduct
field prospecting activities across the claim block. This process will involve the systematic
examination and sampling of the potential fertile granitic pegmatite dykes for lithium and other rare
elements. This crucial step will provide valuable insights into the mineralogy and lithium content of
the identified pegmatites, aiding in the development of an extensive understanding of the property's
lithium exploration potential for further work. Initial scanning of samples will be carried out by a
handheld laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS), which has recently emerged as a tool for
instant geochemical analysis versus traditional laboratory analysis and resultant lag time. The LIBs
can measure Li in minerals, rocks, soils, and brines in-situ in the field.
Roslyn Lithium Property
The Georgia Lake Pegmatite Field represents the largest concentration of rare -element
mineralization in northwestern Ontario. The 32x105 km field hosts 38 rare-element occurrences and
10 spodumene pegmatite deposits (Breaks et al., 2008). Breaks et al, 2008 discovered 19 additional
rare-element occurrences and recommended additional exploration proximal to the fertile Glacier
Lake Batholith bodies in contact with metasediments (Figure 2).

The Property is hosted by a muscovite-bearing granite, an S -type peraluminous fertile parental
granite according to Breaks et al., 2003 and in contact with metasediments which make excellent
hosts for pegmatites. Numerous faults transect the Property providing excellent pathways for
granitic melts and evolving pegmatites (Figure 3 ). Several white pegmatites with garnet and
tourmaline have been documented and mapped on the Property by the OGS in 1970 (Ontario
Department of Mines map M2293). These are very good indications of fertile granitic melts.

“We are thrilled to initiate exploration activities on the Roslyn Lithium Property,” said Rishi Kwatra,
CEO of New Energy. “The Georgia Lake Pegmatite Field is not confined to its initial 2008 limits. Recent
lithium and rare element-bearing pegmatites discovered by Pegmatite One at Frazer Lake, Solstice
Gold at its Frazer Lake property, and Forgan Lake by Ultra Lithium provide merit that the entire region
within the Quetico Subprovince hosts potential for lithium mineralization. The Roslyn Lithium
Property is no exception. ”

About New Energy Metals Corp.
New Energy is a Canadian -based resource company listed on the TSX Venture Exchange under the
symbol ENRG.
The Company has an option to purchase a 100% interest in the Atikokan lithium Project which
comprises 3,788 hectares and is located approximately 12 km east of Atikokan, Ontario. The claims
straddle the contact between a peraluminous S-type muscovite-bearing granite and metasediments
within the Quetico subprovince. The Quetico-Marmion subprovincial boundary lies just 4 km north
of the Property.
The Company also has an option to purchase a 100-percent interest in the Roslyn lithium property,
covering 4,125hectares located 25 kilometers southeast of the Georgia Lake pegmatite field and 35
kilometers southeast of where Rock Tech Lithium just published a preliminary economic assessment
supporting the indicated mineral resource of 10.6 Mt (million tons) grading 0.88 percent lithium
oxide and an inferred mineral resource of 4.2 Mt grading 1.0 percent Li2O.
The Company also has an option to purchase a 100 -percent interest in the Troitsa copper property
covering approximately 7,000 hectares located in the Omineca mining division of British Columbia.
