    • Core assay results for caesium are pending for CV13 with overlimit1 analysis triggered for multiple holes, including the newly discovered Helios Zone.

Darren L. Smith, Executive Vice President Exploration, comments: "This batch of results from the 2025 drill campaign at Shaakichiuwaanaan include the best lithium intercepts reported to date from the high-grade Vega Zone and from the Property overall. The abundance of spodumene mineralization in these drill holes at Vega is among the strongest to have ever been reported globally. Moreover, discoveries beyond Vega continue to be made with the identification of a new high-grade lithium zone ("Helios") at CV13."

"Results for caesium, including multiple holes with overlimits triggered, are pending. We eagerly await these final assays and will announce results once they have all been received and compiled," added Mr. Smith.

/PRNewswire/ -- PMET Resources Inc. (the "Company" or "PMET") (TSX: PMET) (ASX: PMT) (OTCQX: PMETF) (FSE: R9GA) is pleased to announce lithium and tantalum assay results for all remaining holes from its extensive 2025 drill campaign at the Company's wholly-owned Shaakichiuwaanaan Property (the "Property" or "Project"), located in the Eeyou Istchee James Bay region of Quebec.

Core grades 0.7 m at 7.71% Li2O (from 135.0 m to 135.7 m) within a wider mineralized interval of 49.7 m at 2.08% Li2O (119.4 m to 169.1 m). At 7.71% Li2O, this is the highest grade of lithium returned from an individual core sample collected to date at the Property.
