About Surge Battery Metals Inc. surgebatterymetals.com

The Company is a Canadian-based mineral exploration company active in the exploration for nickel-iron

alloy in British Columbia and lithium in Nevada whose primary listing is on the TSX Venture Exchange.

The Company's maintains a focus on exploration for high value battery metals required for the electric

vehicle (EV) market.

Lithium Projects

The Company owns a 100% interest in 95 mineral claims located in Elko County, Nevada about 73 line-

km north-northeast of Wells, Nevada. The Nevada North Lithium Project is host to a Thacker Pass or

Clayton Valley type lithium clay deposit. Results to date have been highly encouraging with surface

samples ranging up to 0.5% lithium. Drilling has recently commenced, and sample results will be

announced over the coming two months.

In addition, the Company has a Property Option Agreement to earn an undivided 80% interest in 16 mineral

claims, The San Emidio Project, comprising 640 acres located within Nevada's San Emidio Desert, known

as the Galt property. Recent mineral exploration on the Galt claim group includes 51 playa sediment

samples ranging up to 852 parts per million lithium (mean 365 ppm). Results from two seven-foot-deep

auger holes show lithium concentrations in the range of 143.5 to 773 ppm Li. A geophysical exploration

program is being contracted and a short drill program to test for a lithium deposit is recommended.

Finally, the Company owns a 100% interest in 663 ha (1,640 acre) property in the Teels Marsh Project

located in Mineral County, Nevada. The property is in an active region for both lithium exploration and

production.

Nickel Projects

The Company has a Property Option Agreement to earn an undivided 80% interest in certain mineral claims

from Nickel Rock Resources Inc. The Surge Nickel Project, Nickel North Project, consists of two non-

contiguous mineral claims groups consisting of 6 mineral claims in the Mount Sidney Williams area of

central BC; the HN4 claim covers 1863 hectares immediately south of and adjacent to the Decar Project

of FPX Nickel Corp and the Mitchell Range area to the north-east consisting of the N100 claim group

covering 8659 hectares.

This is an exploration stage project partially adjacent to FPX Nickel Corp.’s Decar Nickel Project, which

is an advanced project targeting awaruite, a nickel-iron alloy mineral. FPX Nickel Corp. recently released

the results of an internal engineering scoping study evaluating the production of nickel sulphate for the

electric vehicle (EV) battery supply chain from the high-grade awaruite nickel concentrate to be produced

by the company's Baptiste nickel project in central British Columbia. The study highlights FPX's potential

to develop the world's largest integrated nickel sulphate production facility, linking the company

directly into the EV battery supply chain via the production of low-cost, low-carbon nickel sulphate over

Baptiste's projected 35-year mine life.

Surge has completed a detailed geological mapping, soil, and rock sampling survey on our nickel property,

and we are planning further exploration this fall. We are fully funded for these fall exploration programs.
