GLOBAL ENERGY METALS ANNOUNCES PARTNER-FUNDED

EXPLORATION UPDATE FOR THE RÅNA NICKEL PROJECT IN

NORWAY

Vancouver, BC / TheNewswire / April 20, 2023 / Global Energy Metals

CorporaTon TSXV:GEMC | OTCQB:GBLEF | FSE:5GE1 (“Global Energy

Metals” , the “Company” and/or “GEMC”) , a mulK-jurisdicKonal, mulK-

commodity criKcal mineral exploraKon and development company focused on

growth-oriented baGery metal projects supporKng the global transiKon to

clean energy, is pleased to announce that its strategic partner, Kingsrose

Mining Limited (“Kingsrose”), has provided an update on exploraKon acKviKes

at the brownfield Råna Nickel-Copper-Cobalt (Ni-Cu-Co) project ( t h e

“Project”) in northern Norway. Since Kingsrose announced acquiring

operaKonal control of 211 km2 of explora Kon licences at Rana between

January and March, Kingsrose has built a team of local geologists and support

crew, conducted a rigorous contractor selec Kon process for provision of

geophysical and drilling services, and secured the relevant permits and

dispensaKons required to conduct geophysical surveys.

Geophysical surveys have now commenced with a ground based electromag-

neKc (EM) survey underway and Magnetotelluric (MT) surveys planned for

May 2023 (Figure 1). Combined with geological mapping and geochemical

sampling, this work will focus on the generaKon of drill targets, with drilling

expected to commence in July.

Highlights

•The Råna project has proven potenKal for discovery of massive sulphide Ni-

Cu-Co mineralisaKon and is underexplored using modern deposit models

and exploraKon methods.

•MulKdisciplinary geophysical surveys will be completed between April and

July to allow modelling of the intrusion geology in 3D and iden Kfy

conducKve bodies that may represent nickel-copper-cobalt massive

sulphide mineralisaKon to target in upcoming drilling.

•Contracts have been awarded for the compleKon of airborne MT (Expert

Geophysics), ground MT (Quantec Geoscience), ground EM and borehole

EM (Geovisor) geophysical surveys, designed to:

•assist with geological modelling of the enKre intrusion to depths of

one to >three kilometres;

•idenKfy extensions of known mineralisa Kon at Bruvann and

Ränbogen; and

•explore for conducKve bodies elsewhere within the intrusion and in

offset bodies at or near to the base of the intrusion (up to 1000

metres deep) to generate new exploraKon targets.

•Detailed geological mapping and geochemical sampling will commence in

late April as soon as snow melts to allow observaKon of outcrop. This work

will complement the geophysical surveys and aid data interpretaKon for drill

targeKng purposes.

•A 5000 metre core drilling contract has been awarded to Norse Drilling,

Norway, to commence in July, pending final approval of the drill permit

applicaKon which is expected in early May. Drilling will test targets

generated from the above geophysical and geological programs.

•The previously announced transacKon implementaKon agreement allows

for Kingsrose to earn up to 75% over 8 years, through staged expenditure up

to a total of A$15m.

Mitchell Smith, CEO and Director of Global Energy Metals commented:

“Global Energy’s collabora@on with Kingsrose, a company with demonstrated

experience and a commitment to project explora@on and development, will

substan@ally enhance the opportunity to realize the full poten@al of the Råna

project and the overall region. We are firm believers in the tremendous

poten@al for Råna and the opportunity to responsibly develop metals, such as

nickel, that are key to suppor@ng modern society and its transi@on to a low-

carbon future. We see our non-share dilu @ve strategic partnership with

Kingsrose on Råna as a significant catalyst to our partner funded explora@on

and development ac@vi@es and overall growth of the Company.”

Fabian Baker, Kingsrose Managing Director, commented:

"The scale of the Rana intrusion and widespread sur ficial mineralisa@on,

coupled with a lack of explora@on via modern geophysics to date, makes the

project a very exci@ng target for the discovery of high-grade nickel-copper-

cobalt mineralisa@on. We have rapidly developed an explora@on strategy and

a high-quality team to operate the project and look forward to providing

regular news flow as the work proceeds through the summer.”

Global Energy Metals Corp. o ffers investment exposure to the growing

rechargeable baSery and electric vehicle market by building a diversi fied

global porTolio of explora@on and growth-stage baSery mineral assets.

Global Energy Metals recognizes that the prolifera @on and growth of the

electrified economy in the coming decades is underpinned by the availability

of baSery metals, including cobalt, nickel, copper, lithium and other raw

materials. To be part of the solu @on and respond to this electri fica@on

movement, Global Energy Metals has taken a ‘consolidate, partner and invest’

approach and in doing so have assembled and are advancing a por Tolio of

strategically significant investments in baSery metal resources.

As demonstrated with the Company’s current copper, nickel and cobalt

projects in Canada, Australia, Norway and the United States, GEMC is

inves@ng-in, exploring and developing prospec @ve, scaleable assets in

established mining and processing jurisdic@ons in close proximity to end-use

markets. Global Energy Metals is targe@ng projects with low logis@cs and

processing risks, so that they can be fast tracked to enter the supply chain in

this cycle. The Company is also collabora @ng with industry peers to

strengthen its exposure to these cri @cal commodi@es and the associated

technologies required for a cleaner future.

Securing exposure to these cri@cal minerals powering the eMobility revolu@on

is a genera@onal investment opportunity. Global Energy Metals believes Now

is the Time to be part of this electrifica@on movement.
