White Metal Completes Drilling Program at the

Taranis Copper-Silver Project, Namibia

Thunder Bay, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - February 18, 2021) -

White Metal Resources Corp. (TSXV:

WHM)

("White Metal" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has completed its first drilling

program on its 95% owned Taranis Copper-Silver Project (the "Project" or "Property"), located in

northwestern Namibia and defined by Exclusive Prospecting Licence ("EPL") 7071. The reverse

circulation ("RC") drilling program, which began January 19, 2021 (

see

Company news release January

14, 2021), consisted of 28 drill holes totalling 3,226 metres. The drilling program focused in the area that

covers the historical mineral resources contained within the Okohongo Copper-Silver Deposit (the

"Okohongo").

Michael Stares, President & CEO of the Company, stated, "The four week RC drilling program in

Namibia was a success and will provide us with the necessary data and information to complete an NI

43-101 compliant mineral resource estimate on the Okohongo copper-silver deposit. We look forward to

receiving assay results by mid-March and announcing a resource estimate by April."

A total of 727 samples were submitted to Actlabs in Windhoek, Namibia for preparation and will be

analyzed at Actlabs in Canada. Of the total samples, 619 are RC chip samples and 108 are blank,

standard and duplicate samples submitted as part of the quality assurance/quality control program.

The Taranis Property (aka Okohongo Property), covering about 19 850 ha, includes the historical

Okohongo Cu-Ag Deposit which has been outlined by historical drilling (

see

INV Metals news release

dated August 3, 2011), showing it extends over 600 metres in strike length, 400 metres down-dip, and is

interpreted to be open in all directions. The Okohongo, situated within the Kaoko Belt of northwest

Namibia about 700 km northwest of Windhoek, is hosted by metasedimentary stratigraphy and is

considered to be analogous with the stratiform sediment-hosted Central African Copperbelt deposits of

Zambia and the Democratic Republic of the Congo. This deposit contains historical Inferred Mineral

Resources of 10.2 million tonnes grading 1.12% Cu and 17.75 g/t Ag, using a 0.3% Cu cut-off (Table 1;

INV Metals Inc. NI 43-101 Technical Report, Effective Date March 31, 2011).

The Company is treating the tonnages and grades reported in Table 1 as historical mineral resources.

The Inferred Mineral Resource estimate reported in Table 1 for the Okohongo Copper-Silver Deposit

was prepared by qualified authors in 2011, conforming to CIM Definition Standards on Mineral

Resources and Mineral Reserves as outlined in National Instrument 43-101, Standards of Disclosure for

Mineral Projects. A Qualified Person has not done sufficient work to classify the historical estimates as

current mineral resources and the Company is not treating the historical estimates as current mineral

resources. Investors are cautioned that the historical estimates do not mean or imply that economic

deposits exist on the properties. The Company has not undertaken any independent investigation of the

historical estimates or other information contained in this news release nor has it independently analyzed

the results of the previous exploration work in order to verify the accuracy of the information. The

Company believes that these historical estimates and other information contained in this news release
