FULL TEXT
Vancouver, British Columbia, Aug. 8 -- Global Energy Metals issued the following news release:
Global Energy Metals Corporation TSXV:GEMC | OTCQB:GBLEF | FSE:5GE1 ("Global Energy Metals", the "Company"
and/or "GEMC") is pleased to provide an update on its ongoing activities and progress achieved toward the
objective of identifying targets for an inaugural drill program at the Lovelock Mine in Nevada. Work programs
outlined previously by the Company have progressed on schedule and management is more confident than ever
that the Lovelock Mine is a superb value creation opportunity for shareholders.
Metallurgical Analysis and Re-2Ox
Lab scale metallurgical tests continue to provide further information on the excellent historical grades observed.
The bulk sample taken by representatives of partner Canada Cobalt Works from the waste rock in the historic
dumps in front of the mine openings were sent to SGS Canada Inc. in Lakefield, Ontario and have undergone initial
analysis resulting in head assay results of 0.2% cobalt, 0.19% nickel and 2.84% copper. A sample has been
submitted for mineralogy testing and results will be used to better understand which minerals are hosting the
metals and help guide the flotation program.
Results will be used to assist with the Re-2Ox process that allows for cobalt-nickel-copper-bearing mineralized
material to be put through the Re-2OX Process in order to confirm efficient battery metal extraction and create a
potential battery grade test product.
Canada Cobalt Works is working closely with SGS Canada Inc. and has been tasked with leading the supervision of
the hydro metallurgical program. Additional results to follow.
Underground Mapping and Sampling
The focus of the detailed underground prospecting, mapping and sampling program was to further evaluate the
subsurface geology and identify areas for future drilling, and serve as an important resource for the creation of a
3D geological model of the nickel-copper-cobalt rich property.
Particular attention was paid to the main fault of the North Adit however additional underground workings have
been discovered, adding to the extensive underground development. Interestingly, the South Adit appears to be on
the same structural zone as the main fault at the Lovelock Mine and the workings follow two subparallel fault
systems with some anomalous nickel, cobalt and is copper mineralization. The company believes that the
geochemical results are promising, and the structural observations from underground will be valuable when
integrated with future survey results.

Based on the observations, recommendations include mapping and sampling the surrounding surface rocks on the
district-scale property and combining the collective findings with geophysical data to determine drill targets with

priority given to testing main fault and the down dropped block to the west.
Future Work
This initial work program is focused on defining structural controls in the known battery metal-rich areas and
connecting mineralized zones into broader targets in preparation for an inaugural drilling program.
Given the very large exploration area, producing a property-wide geological interpretation and model of the
structures and mineralization is an immediate priority and integral to a Q4 2019 drill program that will allow for
reinterpretation of historic data and a better understanding of the ability to unlock the cobalt, nickel and copper
potential from GEMC's Nevada-based projects.

Global Energy Metals Corporation
(TSXV:GEMC | OTCQB:GBLEF | FSE:5GE1) Global Energy Metals is focused on offering security of supply of cobalt,
a critical material to the growing rechargeable battery market, by building a diversified global portfolio of cobalt
assets including project stakes, projects and other supply sources. GEMC anticipates growing its business by
acquiring project stakes in battery metals related projects with key strategic partners. Global Energy Metals now
holds 100% of the Millennium Cobalt Project and two neighbouring discovery stage exploration-stage cobalt
assets in Mt. Isa, Australia. It also currently owns 70% of the Werner Lake Cobalt Mine in Ontario, Canada, has an
option to acquire an 85% interest in two cobalt exploration projects in Nevada, 150km East of the Tesla
Gigafactory.
