GLOBAL ENERGY METALS PROVIDES POSITIVE UPDATE ON FIRST-
EVER DRILL PROGRAM AT THE LOVELOCK COBALT-NICKEL-COPPER
PROJECT IN NEVADA
Vancouver, BC / TheNewswire / November 29, 2021 / Global Energy Metals
CorporaTon TSXV:GEMC | OTCQB:GBLEF | FSE:5GE1 (“Global Energy
Metals” , the “Company” and/or “GEMC”), a company involved in the
investment exposure to the baGery metals supply chain, is pleased to provide
an update on the Phase 1 drilling at the Lovelock Cobalt-Nickel-Copper project
(“Lovelock”) located in the prolific iron oxide copper gold (“IOCG”) belt of the
S\llwater Range in Nevada, USA.
Highlights to Date
•Phase 1 drilling at Lovelock is well underway with over 800 metres in seven
(7) reverse circula\on drill holes completed with more planned.
•Drilling intersected possible mineraliza \on, altera\on and primary
structures, targeted through the re-interpreta\on of historical geological
and geophysical data.
•A number of drilled sec\ons have visual characteris\cs similar to rock
observed on the waste dump of the Lovelock Mine that when analyzed with
a portable X-ray fluorescence (“XRF”) device showed elevated cobalt, nickel
and copper values.
•Drill cufngs are being logged and sampling of the Phase 1 drilling is
underway, with ini\al assay results expected in the weeks ahead.
•The Company believes that Lovelock displays poten \al for near-surface
cobalt, nickel and copper mineralisa\on and could become a significant
discovery opportunity in the highly prospec\ve S\llwater IOCG region.
Timothy Strong, Project Development Manager commented:
"We are very pleased with the progress made from Phase I drilling which
primarily targeted the untested, near surface IOCG system, as well as
addi=onal targets outside the historical mining zone. These chargeability
anomaly targets were established by our team as highly prospec=ve through
re-interpreta=on of historic geological and geophysical data. So far, the
majority of the holes drilled have intersected interes=ng structures, altera=on,
and possible mineraliza=on visually comparable to descrip=ons of rocks from
the Lovelock Mine waste dump that previous tes =ng showed anomalously
high cobalt, copper and nickel concentra=ons.”
The drilled intervals in the majority of holes drilled are primarily highly altered
HMC volcanic and volcanoclas\c rocks. Specular hema\te is dominant in
some sec\ons and is likely of exhala\ve origin. It is in places finely laminated
and occurs as matrix in debris flow breccia units evident in the drill cufngs.
The targets at this loca\on were: 1) a chargeability anomaly on the down-
thrown western side of the main fault on which the original shaj was sunk
and 2) primary sulfide mineraliza\on beneath the oxide zone that was the
focus of historical mining.

cuJngs that have visual characteris=cs similar to rock observed on the waste
dump of the Lovelock Mine that when analyzed with a portable XRF device
showed elevated cobalt, nickel and copper values.
Samples from the holes drilled will or have be delivered to American Assay in
Sparks, Nevada where the laboratory will conduct geochemical analysis of the
samples via mul\-element ICP-MS and ICP-OES analy \cal methods. Any
overlimit results will trigger a secondary analysis. Results are expected in the
coming weeks.

previous site visit that when analyzed with a portable XRF device showed
elevated cobalt, copper and nickel values. Portable XRF results are given only
to demonstrate explora=on poten=al, and are subject to con firma=on by
further analysis from an independent laboratory.
Lovelock Drill Program
Global Energy Metals undertook a thorough technical review of historical data
for Lovelock and priori\zed a series of drill targets being tes\ng in this 1,000
m program.
The majority of the first pass drilling program this season has been focused on
confirming intersec\ons of cobalt-nickel-copper bearing vein that correlates
with historical underground mining and mapped superficial cobalt-nickel-cop-
per occurrences. The drill program is directed at two target areas within the
property: the “Lovelock Mine Zone” , which is host to historical underground
mining of high-grade cobalt, nickel and copper, and the “New Zone” , a large
area within a corridor of strong structural control with several subparallel
structures indica\ng the poten\al for mul\ple mineralized zones related to
these structures that has historically returned high-grade cobalt, nickel and
copper assays in surface and underground sampling.
Drill targets were generated through a high-power induced polarisa\on (“IP”)
ground geophysical survey, which were subsequently priori\zed by a follow-
up surface geochemical program and airborne magne\c survey. The data in-
terpreta\on has allowed for a beGer understanding of the area, extending
poten\al targets from previously mined orebodies to key untested prospects
and explora\on targets. The geophysical work and compila\on of other data
has greatly enhanced the Company’s ability to successfully target and explore
for new, buried, high-grade cobalt-nickel-copper deposits across the large
footprint in a highly prospec\ve mining district.

Global Energy Metals Corp. o ffers investment exposure to the growing
rechargeable baTery and electric vehicle market by building a diversi fied
global porUolio of explora=on and growth-stage baTery 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 baTery 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 Uolio of
strategically significant investments in baTery 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 believe the the
=me to be part of this electrifica=on movement.
