(TSXV: MERG) (OTCQB: MEEEF) (the \"Company\" or \"Metal Energy\") is pleased to announce assay results from four drill holes on the same section (Table 1, Figure 1) of the Phase Two drill program on the high-grade nickel and copper-cobalt Manibridge project (the \"Project\" or \"Manibridge\") in the Thompson Nickel Belt, Manitoba. Phase Two's 10,000 m drill program was completed in December 2022, with five additional drill hole assay results still pending.

These four drill holes expand a shallow high-grade nickel zone that was never discovered previously at Manibridge. This particular mineralized zone is 100 m along strike, 40 to 90 m thick, extends for at least 180 m in the dip direction, and is open in both dip directions. The Phase 2 drill program continues to redefine the system at Manibridge with over 1 kilometre o...
