Suite 401, 750 West Pender Street, Vancouver, B.C., Canada, V6C 2T7 2 AFRICAN ENERGY METALS PROVIDES UPDATE ON STATUS OF MCTO Vancouver, British Columbia - (May 17, 2023) - African Energy Metals Inc. (TSXV: CUCO; FSE: BC2; OTCQB: NDENF; WKN: A3DEJG) ("African Energy Metals" or the "Company") is providing an update on the status of a management cease trade order (the "MCTO") application to the British Columbia Securities Commission that the Company announced on May 3, 2023. As a result of delays due to an auditor change, the Company's annual financial statements and accompanying management's discussion and analysis for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 (the "Annual Filings"), were not finalized by May 1, 2023, being the date that such filings were due under applicable Canadian securities law requirements. The Company reports that the audit is progressing and will provide a further update on the timing of its Annual Filings on or about May 31, 2023. The Company is working diligently with its incoming auditors to complete the audit in a timely manner. The Company currently expects to file the Annual Filings on or before May 31, 2023 and will issue a news release announcing completion of such filings at such time. Further updates on timing will be provided by the Company as necessary. Until the Company files the Annual Filings, it will comply with the alternative information guidelines set out in National Policy 12-203 - Management Cease Trade Orders for issuers who have failed to comply with a specified continuous disclosure requirement within the times prescribed by applicable securities laws. The guidelines, among other things, require the Company to issue bi-weekly default status reports by way of a news release so long as the Annual Filings have not been filed. During the MCTO, the general investing public will continue to be able to trade in the Company's listed common shares. However, the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer will not be able to trade in the Company's common shares.
