Power Metallic Mines Inc. (PNPNF) – Drilling Expands Lion Mineralization and Identifies High-Grade Gold Zone


Wednesday, March 04, 2026

Power Metallic is a Canadian exploration company focused on advancing the Nisk Project Area (Nisk–Lion–Tiger)—a high–grade Copper–PGE, Nickel, gold and silver system—toward Canada’s next polymetallic mine. On 1 February 2021, Power Metallic (then Chilean Metals) secured an option to earn up to 80% of the Nisk project from Critical Elements Lithium Corp. (TSX–V: CRE). Following the June 2025 purchase of 313 adjoining claims (~167 km²) from Li–FT Power, the Company now controls ~212.86 km² and roughly 50 km of prospective basin margins. Power Metallic is expanding mineralization at the Nisk and Lion discovery zones, evaluating the Tiger target, and exploring the enlarged land package through successive drill programs. Beyond the Nisk Project Area, Power Metallic indirectly has an interest in significant land packages in British Columbia and Chile, by its 50% share ownership position in Chilean Metals Inc., which were spun out from Power Metallic via a plan of arrangement on February 3, 2025. It also owns 100% of Power Metallic Arabia which owns 100% interest in the Jabul Baudan exploration license in The Kingdon of Saudi Arabia’s JabalSaid Belt. The property encompasses over 200 square kilometres in an area recognized for its high prospectivity for copper gold and zinc mineralization. The region is known for its massive volcanic sulfide (VMS) deposits, including the world-class Jabal Sayid mine and the promising Umm and Damad deposit.

Expansion of Lion mineralization. Recent drilling at Lion East and Lion West resulted in a newly identified shallow eastward plunging structural trend that controls high grade copper mineralization and extends the Lion system beyond its previously defined limits. Step-out drilling expanded mineralization both east and west, and the emerging structural model may vector toward a larger nickel copper source at depth, enhancing the project’s long-term potential.

Encouraging results at Lion West. Drilling intersected massive nickel-bearing sulphide within the UM zone, indicating the presence of a deeper nickel-palladium-copper system much like mineralization observed at Tiger. Follow-up drilling is underway to better define the geometry and relationship to the Lion geological stratigraphy.
