Vancouver, BC - TheNewswire - October 19, 2021 - Global Energy Metals Corporation (TSXV:GEMC) | (OTCQB:GBLEF) | (FSE:5GE1) (Global Energy Metals, the Company and/or GEMC), a company involved in the investment exposure to the battery metals supply chain, is pleased to announce the signing of a letter of intent between Electric Royalties Ltd. (Electric Royalties and/or ELEC) and Scandinavian Resource Holdings (SRH) to create a new 1% Net Smelter Royalty (the 1% NSR) on four exploration licenses totaling 25 square kilometers in the Rna mafic-ultramafic intrusion in Northern Norway and includes the past producing Bruvann Nickel mine (the Rna Project or Rna).

Rana Nickel Royalty Acquisition Highlights

- Includes the past producing Bruvann Ni-Cu-Co mine which has significant historical resources remaining after production shut down in 2002, following 13 years of production due to low nickel prices;

- Located adjacent to main north-south highway and in an area with a long history of mining and skilled manpower;

- Available mine infrastructure includes power, roads, and conveyor from mine site to existing port facilities;

- Large historical drill database demonstrating compelling near mine exploration potential;

- Underexplored property with demonstrated exploration potential and re-start potential; and

- GEMC to receive cash and share equity in Electric Royalties further increasing its exposure to the company and its growing portfolio of technology enabling metal projects.

Mitchell Smith, CEO of Global Energy Metals commented:

We are excited to partner again with Electric Royalties and strengthen our ownership in their company while benefiting further from the added exposure our shareholders will gain through Electrics impressive royalty portfolio and the raw materials that are building an electrified future. We see Electric as the perfect partner to strengthen awareness about the Rana Project and attract further investment to advance this important class-1 sulphide nickel project.

Brendan Yurik, CEO of Electric Royalties commented:

We are very pleased to add Rana to our royalty portfolio as it represents our first exposure to nickel. Furthermore, we are excited about the potential of the mines restart as well as the prospectivity of the surrounding land package. The mine was shut down in 2002 due to low nickel prices which averaged less than $4/lb during its operation. Market conditions have now changed and nickel prices are more than double what they were when the mine shut down. Given the projects excellent jurisdiction, good infrastructure and available skilled workforce we believe that Rana has excellent potential to help supply the nickel required to transition the world away from fossil fuels and toward a decarbonized global economy.

Rana Project Overview

The Rna Nickel-Copper-Cobalt project is jointly held by GEMC and SRH and located on the Ofoten Fjord in Northern Norway and is ice-free year-round. The project includes the past producing Bruvann Ni-Cu-Co mine which was in production from 1989 until 2002 and processed 8.2 million tonnes of ore at an average grade of 0.52% Ni, 0.1% Cu and 0.02% Co.

A historical estimate of the remaining resource is 9.15 million tonnes at approximate grades of 0.36% Ni, 0.09% Cu and 0.01% Co above a cut-off of 0.3% Ni.1 The mineralization is reported to be open in several directions.

The estimate was obtained from a report prepared by the Norwegian Geological Survey (NGU). No classification of the estimate was reported. The estimate is historical in nature and does not qualify as mineral resources under CIM Definition standards and NI 43-101. A qualified person under has not done sufficient work to classify the estimates as current mineral resources and the Company is not treating them as current.

Bruvann is located 2 km away from a shipping dock with an existing conveyor connecting dock facilities from the mine site. Mine roads and power facilities as well as some of the mine buildings have been maintained and the main North-South highway in the region crosses the property.
