GLOBAL ENERGY METALS ANNOUNCES PARTNER FUNDED

DRILLING COMMENCES AT THE MILLENNIUM COBALT, COPPER

AND GOLD PROJECT IN QUEENSLAND, AUSTRALIA

Vancouver, BC / TheNewswire / May 18, 2022 / Global Energy Metals

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

Metals” , the “Company” and/or “GEMC”), a company involved in investment

exposure to the baGery metals supply chain, is pleased to announce that a

partner funded drilling campaign is well underway at the Millennium cobalt,

copper, and gold project in Queensland, Australia by joint venture partner

Metal Bank Limited (“Metal Bank and/or MBK”). Ini [al observa[ons from

Millennium are encouraging with visible sulphides, including chalcopyrite and

cobal[te, and broad altera[on halos not currently within the resource

envelope.

Global Energy currently holds 100% of the Millennium project and have

entered into a joint venture with Metal Bank, where Metal Bank can earn up

to 80% through signi ficant staged explora[on spend and share equity

payments. For more informa[on please refer to the linked news release

dated December 13, 2021.

CommenRng on MBK’s exploraRon program for Millennium, Metal Bank’s

Chair, Inés Scotland said:

“At Millennium we are aiming to almost double the exis:ng Millennium Re-

source of 5.9Mt @ 1.08% CuEq as well as test adjacent and peripheral targets.

As Australia looks to establish itself as a global cri:cal minerals supplier, at a

:me of supply constraint and unprecedented copper and cobalt prices, the

Millennium project’s current Resource already provides significant value not

yet factored into the current valua :on. With a combina:on of resource

growth and the project’s granted Mining Leases the project presents a real

opportunity for near-term development.”

Millennium 2022 Work Program

Drilling at Millennium recently commenced in the Southern Resource area,

targe[ng both shallow and deep extensions to the exis [ng mineralisa[on

along with infill and metallurgical drilling.

Work is progressing northwards through the Central Resource area (Figure 2).

Ini[al observa[ons are encouraging with visible sulphides including chalcopy-

rite and cobal[te within broad altera[on halos not currently within the re-

source envelope. Assays from the earliest drilling samples are expected in

June.

previously reported

MBK has developed a three-phase work program for Millennium in 2022 seek-

ing to confirm the Explora[on Target for the Project of 8 – 10Mt @ 1.0 – 1.1%

CuEq, and future Resource expansion and development poten[al. For more

informa[on please refer to the news release announced March 16, 2022.

Upon receipt and assessment of results MBK will embark on a JORC 2012-

compliant Resource update and Scoping Study u[lising appropriate economic

parameters aimed for comple[on late 2022.

Millennium Project

The Millennium Cobalt, Copper and Gold Project near Cloncurry in NW QLD

currently holds a JORC 2012 compliant Inferred Resource of 5.9Mt @ 1.08%

CuEq13 (Cu-Co-Au-Ag) across 5 granted Mining Leases with significant poten-

[al for expansion.

The Millennium Project is located 19km from the Rocklands copper-cobalt

project with an established processing plant capable of trea[ng Millennium-

style ores once recommissioned.

Recent MBK drilling provided confidence in growth upside to the exis[ng Re-

source. This included encouraging infill/extension work in the Southern Area

Resource (MI21RC01-2) and significantly expanding the system strike and

scale into the Northern Area (MI21RC03-07).

Following comple[on of the recent drill program Metal Bank commenced a

review of the exis[ng Resource in the Southern and Central Areas of the

Project, MBK’s recent drill results and other previous drilling. In conjunc[on

with significant apprecia[on in copper and cobalt prices since maiden Re -

source repor[ng, results from this review provided support for an ini[al Ex-

plora[on Target for the Project of 8 – 10Mt @ 1.0 – 1.1% CuEq.

This Explora[on Target is based on extensions both along strike and at depth

in both the Southern and Central Area copper-cobalt-gold Resources and also

in the Northern Area, where shallow copper intervals at broad spacing have

been returned some 800-1000m north of the closest Resource.

It should be noted that the Explora[on Target is conceptual in nature. There

has been insufficient drilling at depth of the exis[ng Resource and in the

Northern Area of the project and insufficient informa[on rela[ng to the Rea-

sonable Prospects of Eventual Economic Extrac[on (RPEEE) of the Millennium

project to es[mate a Mineral Resource over the Explora[on Target area, and

it is uncertain if further study will result in the es [ma[on of a Mineral Re-

source over this area. It is acknowledged that the currently available data is

insufficient spa[ally in terms of the density of drill holes, and in quality, in

terms of MBK’s final audit procedures for down hole data, data acquisi[on

and processing, for the results of this analysis to be classified as a Mineral Re-

source in accordance with the JORC Code.

As an equity shareholder in Metal Bank, GEMC is also pleased to report that

Metal Bank has been awarded an Explora[on Incen[ve Scheme (EIS) grant of

up to $75,000 of co-funding from the Western Australian government to drill

test a deep structural target at the Stanley prospect at Livingstone. Stanley is

located 10km west of the Homestead Resource and 2.5 km north of the Kings-

ley Resource and has a confirmed 3-4 km long coherent in soil gold anomaly3

which has had limited drilling to date. In addi[on to the work being conduct-

ed at Millennium, GEMC is also benefit to drilling now underway at the Liv-

ingstone gold project in Western Australia with Resource extension drilling at

the Kingsley deposit completed. MBK’s extensive 2022 drilling program at Liv-

ingstone comprises >3,000m of Resource Extension and Explora[on drilling

aiming to increase and update the Project’s resources (80,000 oz Au) by vali-

da[ng and tes[ng mineralisa[on extensions at the Kingsley and the Home-

stead deposits. For addi[onal details please refer to the Metal Bank news re-

lease dated May 17, 2022.
