Power Metal Resources
plc
("Power Metal" or the
"Company")
Update on Proposed Formation of
Uranium-Focused Joint Venture
Completion of Legal Due Diligence and
Finalisation of Transaction Documents
Power Metal Resources plc
(AIM:POW, OTCQB:POWMF), the London-listed exploration
company with a global project portfolio, announces an update on the
intended formation of a uranium-focused
joint venture (the "Joint Venture") involving Power Metal's entire
portfolio of uranium licences.
A special purpose vehicle has been
formed, UCAM Ltd, an affiliate of ACAM LP, which is currently
intended to be the counterparty to the transaction ("UCAM" or the
"Investor", together with the Company, the "Parties").
Further to the Company's
announcement of 27 August 2024, the Parties are pleased to confirm
that all required workstreams with respect to the legal due
diligence are now complete and the preparation of the definitive
legal transaction documents for the transaction are now in
substantially final form.
However, certain administrative
tasks relating to the finalisation of the financing arrangements by
the Investor remain outstanding.
Accordingly, the Parties have agreed
to extend the period of exclusivity for the transaction to 27
September 2024.
Whilst no guarantee of completion
can be provided, the Parties fully expect completion within that
period and the Company will update shareholders in due
course.

NOTES TO EDITORS
Power Metal Resources plc -
Background
Power Metal Resources
plc (AIM:POW, OTCQB:POWMF) is an AIM-traded metals
exploration company which finances and manages global resource
projects and is seeking large scale metal discoveries.
The Company has a principal focus on
opportunities offering district scale potential across a global
portfolio including precious, base and strategic metal exploration
in North America, Africa, Saudi Arabia and Australia.
Project interests range from
early-stage greenfield exploration to later-stage prospects
currently subject to drill programmes.
Power Metal will develop projects
internally or through strategic joint ventures until a project
becomes ready for disposal through outright sale or separate
listing on a recognised stock exchange thereby crystallising the
value generated from our internal exploration and development
work.
Value generated through disposals
will be deployed internally to drive the Company's growth or may be
returned to shareholders through share buy backs, dividends or
in-specie distributions of assets.
