Global Energy Metals Consolidates 100% Ownership in Lovelock Mine and Treasure Box Projects, Two Growth-Stage Strategic Battery Metal Projects in Nevada, USA

HIGHLIGHTS

• GEMC to consolidate 100% ownership of the Lovelock and Treasure Box projects

• The Transaction will increase the current interest in the Projects from the current 85% to 100%

• GEMC holding 100% ownership of the Project will simplify decision-making and provides the optimal structure to oversee the rapid exploration and development of key U.S. based critical minerals projects.

• Consolidation of 100% of the Projects' ownership will de-risk the funding pathway and enhance GEMC's ability to source capital for the development of the Projects from a wider range of providers when compared with the existing joint venture ownership structure

• Consideration will be paid in GEMC shares, subject to TSX Venture Exchange approval, vesting over 12 months thereby allowing the shareholders of the vendor to retain exposure to the Projects

Mitchell Smith, GEMC President and CEO commented:

"We are extremely pleased to have reached an agreement with Nevada Sunrise to consolidate 100% ownership of the Lovelock Mine and Treasure Box projects. The exceptional exploration findings to date demonstrate the exciting potential for copper, nickel and cobalt mineralization at a district scale in Nevada, a top tier mining jurisdiction.

This transaction is a highly rational step for GEMC. By assuming full control of the Projects, GEMC will create a strong platform from which to develop and fund these battery mineral projects. We look forward to continuing to deliver long-term value for our shareholders by unlocking the potential of these critically important technology enabling metals

Consolidating 100% ownership under GEMC provides the optimal structure to oversee the rapid development of the Projects by streamlining decision making and execution. The Transaction will simplify and de-risk the funding pathway for the Projects and will greatly enhance the Company's ability to source capital from a wider pool of investors. Management believes that this in turn may potentially deliver enhanced returns to shareholders as the Projects advance.

Please refer to the GEMC news release dated January 31, 2023 providing a detailed summary of the results from multiple exploration programs carried out in 2022 at the Projects located in the Stillwater Range in Nevada, USA, along with an overview of the Company's near term project advancement initiatives following the exploration results.

The Company currently owns a 85% interest in the Projects with Nevada Sunrise holding 15%. Following completion of the Transaction, Global Energy Metals will have an undivided 100% interest in the Projects subject to the 2% net smelter royalty in favour of Primus Resources L.C. (the "Royalty").

Global shall have the right, exercisable at any time, to purchase up to 50% of the Royalty granted to Primus Resources L.C. ("Primus") by payment to Primus of US$1,500,000 subject to a protection hedge against inflation of the U.S. Dollar, using an agreed upon price of $3.25 per pound copper. Upon payment of US$1,500,000 or the cash value of 462,000 (four hundred, sixty two thousand) pounds copper, whichever value is greater at the time of the purchase of half of the Royalty, the Royalty shall be reduced to 1% of Net Smelter Returns, effective as of the date of such payment and provided that Products produced before the date of such payment shall be subject to the 2% Royalty.

As consideration for the Transaction, and subject to receiving approval from the TSX Venture Exchange, the Company will issue 2,500,000 shares in GEMC to Nevada Sunrise. The shares will vest in four equal instalments of 625,000 shares on the fourth, sixth, ninth and twelfth months from issuance.

About Lovelock
The Property currently consists of 81 unpatented lode claims in the Cottonwood Canyon area of the Stillwater Range totaling approximately 1,586 acres (642 hectares). It was discovered by George Lovelock and Charles Bell about 1880. According to U.S. Government annual reports, the Lovelock Mine saw limited production of nickel, copper and cobalt beginning in 1883. The primary cobalt mineral was identified as "cobaltite". The general average of the 200 tons shipped in 1886 averaged 14 percent cobalt and 12 percent nickel. The mine operated from 1883 to 1890 to the 100 foot level, reporting 500 tons of cobalt and nickel mineralized material shipped to England for processing. After intermittent production, an English company attempted smelting on site in 1898 but little or no production was made (Source: "Mineral Resources of the United States for 1885", 1886). No further production from the Lovelock Mine is known for well over a century providing GEMC an excellent opportunity to unlock the potential value of the deposit through exploration work. In a recent drill program at Lovelock by GEMC, elevated values of cobalt, nickel and copper were intercepted in three of the holes which targeted possible mineralization beneath the historical mine workings.

About Treasure Box
Treasure Box hosts mine workings from limited copper production, which occurred until early into the 20th century. A historical diamond drill hole (circa 1910) drilled at the Treasure Box by the Boyer-Nevada Copper Company reportedly intersected 1.52% copper over 85 feet (25.9 metres) with mineralization beginning at surface. A reverse circulation hole drilled on the Treasure Box by Utah International in 1976 returned 1.55% copper over 40 feet (12.2 metres) from a depth of 85 to 125 feet (25.9 to 38.1 metres), and the hole was stopped in chalcopyrite mineralization. The core Treasure Box claims were held continuously for over 20 years by a private company but were relinquished in September 2017, leading to their acquisition by Nevada Sunrise. GEMC received approval from the US Bureau of Land Management (the "BLM") for a proposed exploration and drill plan at the Treasure Box project that includes up to thirteen (13) vertical drill holes from thirteen (13) different locations. Planned drill hole lengths range from 350 feet (107 metres) to 500 feet (152 metres). Total drilling is anticipated to be 5,850 feet (1,784 meters), with a minimum drilling length of three (3) drill holes totaling 1,350 feet (412 metres). Depending on findings, individual drill hole lengths could be extended by 30 to 50 feet (10 to 15 metres) as determined by the company's on-site representative. The targeted prospects have been identified by Global Energy Metals through a systematic exploration program over the past several months that has included an airborne magnetic survey, reinterpretation of historical Induced Polarization (IP) data, detailed mapping and desktop review of historical data including past drilling.
