Grid Metals Corp. Announces Exploration Programs Underway

November 11, 2025 TORONTO -- Grid Metals Corp. (TSXV: GRDM; OTCQB: MSMGF) ("Grid" or

the "Company") is pleased to provide a corporate update following the successful completion of

a financing for aggregate gross proceeds of C$4,027,158. The majority of the financing came

from one strategic investor making their first investment into Grid.

Falcon West Cesium Project – Drill Program

A cesium -focused drill program at Falcon West has commenced which is targeting the Lucy

cesium zone that has seen historical high-grade cesium drill intercepts. This drill program marks

the first concerted effort to define a discrete cesium zone at the property. Drilling will be focused

on a near-surface pegmatite system which is known to host cesium mineralization. A minimum

of forty (40) drill holes are planned. Cesium was designated a critical metal in the most recent

Canadian Federal Budget and is utilized in a growing variety of high-tech applications. Currently,

there are only a handful of known cesium projects with resources globally.

Makwa Nickel/Copper Project Update – Drilling Funded by Teck Resources

The Company’s Makwa Ni-Cu-PGE project in southeastern Manitoba is subject to an Option and

Joint Venture Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Teck Resources Limited (“Teck”) 1. The project

is now permitted for exploration drilling and downhole geophysics at the recently identified Pavo

Anomaly where prospecting led to the discovery of semi-massive nickel sulfide mineralization at

surface (up to 1.1% nickel in grab samples)2. The drill rig has been mobilized to site.

Grant of Incentive Awards

The Board of Directors has approved the issuance of 7,200,000 stock options at an exercise price

of $0. 15 per share (the “Incentive Awards”) under the Company’s Equity Incentive Plan. The

issuance is to eligible directors, management, employees and consultants.
