Patriot Battery Metals Announces Proposed Name Change to

PMET RESOURCES

September 15, 2025 – Montréal, QC, Canada September 16, 2025 – Sydney, Australia

Patriot Battery Metals Inc. (the “Company”) (TSX: PMET) (ASX: PMT) (OTCQX: PMETF)

(FSE: R9GA) is pleased to announce that it has decided to change its name to PMET Resources Inc. in

English and « Ressources PMET Inc. » in French.

The Company will retain its existing trading symbols: “PMET” on the Toronto Stock Exchange and “PMT”

on the Australian Securities Exchange.

The name change and corporate rebranding marks the next evolution of the Company as development of

the world-class Shaakichiuwaanaan Project in Canada continues to advance, with the imminent completion

of the Feasibility Study and continued strong progress with permitting and stakeholder engagement.

The evolution of the Company’s brand to PMET Resources is consistent with its growth as a diversified

global critical minerals company, focused on becoming a reliable long- term supplier of critical minerals to

key North American and European markets.

In line with this shift, the Company’s tagline will evolve from “North America’s lithium powerhouse” to

“North America’s critical -mineral powerhouse”, reflecting the broader geological endowment of

Shaakichiuwaanaan. In addition to lithium, the project hosts tantalum, caesium and gallium resources, with

the potential to deliver world-class supplies of each of these highly strategic minerals.

The Company’s President, CEO and Managing Director Ken Brinsden said:

“The evolution of Patriot into PMET comes at the right time for our company and the Shaakichiuwaanaan Project.

Our new logo, a three faced crystal, is representative of a mineral, with the three faces each representing the LCT

components of our pegmatites: lithium, caesium and tantalum. It also represents the three cultures active on -site

and in the Company more broadly , namely – the Cree, French and English – collaborating to build

Shaakichiuwaanaan into a key supplier of critical minerals to the North American and European markets.”

“PMET RESOURCES, with our new logo and, importantly, website at pmet.ca, provides a fresh, effective and

seamless platform to communicate with all of our key stakeholders.”

Effective at the start of trading on September 18, 2025, subject to final approval by the Toronto Stock

Exchange, the Company will commence trading on the Toronto Stock Exchange under the new name, with

the name change expected to be effected by ASX on September 19, 2025 (Sydney) . The new CUSIP and

ISIN numbers assigned to the Company's common shares are 73015G104 and CA73015G1046,

respectively. There will be no consolidation of share capital, and shareholders are not required to change

their existing share certificates for new certificates bearing the new Company name. Company shares held

electronically will be booked electronically. The Company’s change of name does not impact the rights of

the Company's securityholders, and no further action is required by existing securityholders with respect

to this change. All outstanding securities will remain valid under the new name.
