("

Nortec

" or the "

Company

") is pleased to announce a Versatile Time Electromagnetic ("VTEM")

geophysical survey at the Sturgeon Lake VMS Project in Ontario has started and is expected to

conclude later this month.

"An ongoing GIS targeting compilation has identified eleven (11) exploration target areas at the

Sturgeon Lake VMS Project.

The current VTEM survey is the first modern survey to be flown over the

property, and will aid in targeting and prioritizing areas for a prospecting, mapping and the soil sampling

program scheduled for H1 2023. These are important steps in systematically advancing the property as

the combined information will define initial drill targets for the next phase of exploration," stated Derrick

Weyrauch, Chairman.
