Noble Mineral highlights Successful Exploration Results

announced by Canada Nickel, including Highest Grade to

Date at Mann West

TORONTO, March 13, 2025 – Noble Mineral Exploration Inc. ("Noble" or the "Company") (TSXV: NOB)

(OTCQB: NLPXF) is pleased to announce successful exploration drilling results from its joint venture

partner Canada Nickel Company Inc. (“Canada Nickel”) (TSXV:CNC) in East Timmins Nickel Ltd. (“East

Timmins Nickel”) a private company operating in the Timmins area of Northern Ontario.

Canada Nickel Company Inc. announced strong results from the Reid, Mann West and Midlothian

properties, its Three Giants. One of its Three Giants, Mann West delivered the highest grade interval within

the property to date with 0.63% nickel over 4.5 metres within 0.40% nickel over 18.0 metres within an overall

mineralized core length of 0.27% nickel over 452 metres, in hole MAN24-79.

Canada Nickel CEO Mark Selby said, “ Our regional exploration program is consistently yielding excellent

outcomes with each of the Three Giants delivering strong drilling results. These targets each have a target

footprint larger than our flagship Crawford Nickel Sulphide Project, underscoring the large- scale potential

of the Timmins Nickel District. We are excited to publish the remaining six resources by mid-2025, bringing

the total to eight regional resources and showcasing the vast scale of nickel resources within the District.”

The Three Giants each have a target footprint larger than CNC’s flagship Crawford Nickel Sulphide Project,

underscoring the large- scale potential of the Timmins Nickel District. Canada Nickel will publish the

remaining six resources by mid- 2025, bringing the total to eight regional resources and showcasing the

vast scale of nickel resources within the District. For full details, drill results and maps, see the news release

published by Canada Nickel, March 12, 2025.

Noble CEO Vance White said, “We congratulate our partner Canada Nickel on the work completed and

results on the Mann Twp property and we are very excited about the prospects for East Timmins Nickel

along the several additional projects to be included.”

Mann Property

The Mann property is located 22 kilometres east of Crawford between Timmins and Cochrane and is 80%

owned by Canada Nickel and 20% by Noble Mineral Exploration. The target consists of four separate

targets, Mann North, Mann West (together formerly Mann Northwest), Mann Central and Mann South. The

CNC release provides an assay update from six holes, three holes at Mann West, and three holes at Mann

South.

Mann West

Mann West is approximately 3.5 kilometres long by up to 1.1 kilometres wide (covering 3.4 square

kilometres). The drill program completed focused on the southern half of the target with drilling completed

over a strike length of 1.7 kilometres and a width of at least 600 metres. All drillholes intersected long

sections of well -serpentinized peridotite and minor dunite with disseminated and visible nickel sulphide

mineralization consisting primarily of pentlandite and heazlewoodite. The Company has drilled a total of 40

holes to date at Mann West with 31 holes drilled during the 2024 program. CNC is currently working on an

initial resource estimate expected by April 2025. Assays from three holes are presented in this release and

a final two holes are awaiting assays. See Table 1 and Figure 1.

Mann South

This target is approximately 5.9 kilometres long by up to 1.2 kilometres wide, having an arcuate and irregular

shape, with an overall area of 4.1 square kilometres. The company drilled 20 holes in 2024 and successfully

intersected varying degrees of serpentinized peridotite and minor pyroxenite. Peridotite shows anomalous

values of PGE in hole MAN24-96. Assays from three holes are presented in this release. See Table 2 and
