Mr. Paul Sarjeant reports

GLOBAL ENERGY METALS ANNOUNCES INVESTEE COMPANY HIGH-TECH METALS ANNOUNCES COMPLETION OF DRILLING AT ONTARIO-BASED WERNER LAKE PROJECT

High-Tech Metals Ltd. (HTM), an equity investee of Global Energy Metals Corp., has announced that the drilling program at the Werner Lake project in Ontario has been completed for a total of 798 metres of diamond drilling. All HTM samples have been sent to the company's lab services provider (ALS), with assay results expected to start arriving in approximately two weeks to four weeks.

This follows the significant results achieved through the Ni-Cu-Co (nickel-copper-cobalt) lithogeochemical sampling program, totalling 209 samples collected during the 2023 field season at Werner Lake project, located in Northwestern Ontario (refer to the news release dated Aug. 30, 2023). The results are extremely encouraging for Werner Lake and confirm the Cu-Co potential of the project, as well as the discovery of high-grade nickel sulphide at surface. Of the 209 samples taken as part of the program, 12 samples exceeded grades of more than 1 per cent cobalt or 1 per cent copper and three samples returned results greater than 1 per cent Ni.

HTM is actively evaluating numerous new project possibilities near Werner Lake. It is consistently conducting thorough internal assessments of projects that align with HTM's goal of specializing in battery metals. Of special interest are ventures that enhance the company's involvement in the recently discovered nickel potential of Werner Lake.

Next steps

HTM is committed to responsible exploration practices, and takes measures to minimize the impact of its exploration activities on the environment and local communities.

Location

Werner Lake is located in a known nickel province with the old Gordon Lake mine 3.5 kilometres to the east. From 1962 to 1972, the old Gordon Lake mine produced 1,370,285 tons averaging 0.92 per cent Ni and 0.47 per cent Cu, and has existing reserves of 170,420 tonnes averaging 0.85 per cent Ni and 0.35 per cent Cu. To the west of Werner Lake is the Norpax deposit that has a historic resource of 1.01 million tonnes at 1.2 per cent Ni and 0.5 per cent Cu.

High-Tech Metals Ltd.

High-Tech Metals is an ASX (Australian Securities Exchange)-listed company focused on the exploration and development of its flagship, 100-per-cent-owned Werner Lake cobalt project located in Northwestern Ontario, within the Kenora mining district, approximately 85 km north-northwest of Kenora, Ont., and approximately 170 km east-northeast of Winnipeg, Man. The project was acquired from Global Energy Metals (70 per cent) and Marquee Resources Ltd. (30 per cent).
