M3 Metals Corp. Provides Update on the Block 103 Iron Ore Project M3 Metals Corp. announced it has completed a LiDAR and Orthophoto survey on its 100% owned Block 103 Iron Ore Project in Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada. The primary objective of the survey was to acquire a bare earth digital terrane model (DTM) and orthophoto data to aid in its continued exploration for DSO and Taconite style mineralization on the Property. The bare earth DTM model digital y removed the surficial vegetation from the LiDAR (point cloud) data and resulted in a model of the ground and outcrops that is accurate to 30cm. Because the iron rich rocks on the Property occur in stratigraphic (layered) rock units, the bare earth DTM greatly enhances the property wide geological mapping and provides a new perspective on the deformation and fault structures. These structural features can be spatial y related to the enrichment or formation of DSO style mineralization and can be observed by bends (or folds) and sharp o sets (faults) of the regularly occurring layered geological units. The survey confirmed that the high-grade DSO style mineralization (including 69.75% Fe2O3 and 16.45% SiO2 over 6.1 metres in hole DDH103-064) occurs within a structural y complex area. Additional work is being planned for the 2022 field season to test extensions of the high-grade DSO style mineralized intercept encountered in hole DDH103-064 beginning at 26.82 metres depth. Due to the near surface but covered location of the mineralized unit, drilling is required to properly test its total extent. Continued analysis of the newly acquired data may also result in the identification of additional areas that share similar structural traps which could also have secondary iron enrichment sourced from the extensive iron formations on the Property. The Company also continues to explore business opportunities including communicating with potential partners or buyer to advance the 7.2 billion tonne taconite iron ore resource at 29.2% total Fe. DSO is currently being mined by Tata Steel Minerals Canada ("TSMC") in multiple areas surrounding the Property which is being processed (or beneficiated) at TSMC's DSO facility located 6 kilometres from the Block 103 property. Once beneficiated, the product is loaded on rail at site and sent to a port in Sept-Îles for shipping to consumers worldwide. TSMC is processing iron ore material with greater than 50% total Fe and less than 18% SiO2 as a cut-o for the material at their facility. The Company believes there is potential to identify DSO style mineralization on the Property suitable for processing at TSMC adjacent and currently operating facility. Block 103 is located near well -established infrastructure in the heart of the Labrador Trough, Newfoundland and Labrador, approximately 30 km northwest from the town of Sche ervil e, Quebec and 1,200 kilometres by air northeast of Montréal, QC. Previous work by the Company includes geological mapping, geophysical surveys and diamond drilling programs. Total drilling now stands at 115 drill holes aggregating over 28,000 metres. Two zones of mineralization have been defined on the Property; namely the Northwest Zone and the Greenbush Zone where the focus of the mineral resource estimate has been on the Greenbush Zone.

M3 Metals Corp. Provides an Update on its Upcoming Planned Trenching Program on its 100% Owned Block 103 Iron Ore Project in Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada M3 Metals Corp. provided an update on its upcoming planned trenching program on its 100% owned Block 103 Iron Ore Project in Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada. The Company has selected 10 priority targets to test for Direct Shipping Ore ("DSO") mineralization. Target selection was based on reanalysis of the extensive drilling and numerous airborne and ground based geophysical surveys including detailed magnetic and gravity surveys. The Company is targeting pockets of DSO within and surrounding its primary 7.2 Billion tonne Taconite (Magnetite Iron) resource. Of immediate interest is a zone of high- grade haematite mineralization intersected in hole 64 showing the potential for DSO within and around the resource on the Block 103 property. This mineralization was intersected near surface from 26.82 metres to 32.92 metres and represents one of the initial target areas for the currently planned trenching program. DSO highlights from previous drilling: DDH103-064 including 69.75% Fe2O3 and 16.45% SiO2 over 6.1 metres DSO is currently being mined by Tata Steel Minerals Canada ("TSMC") on three sides of the Project and is being beneficiated at TSMC's processing facility located 6 kilometres from the Block 103 property. Once beneficiated, the product is railed to a port in Sept-Îles for shipping to consumers worldwide. TSMC mines and process high-grade iron ore from multiple isolated hematite deposits occurring over 30 km in the Menihek region of Labrador and northern Quebec. TSMC is processing iron ore material with greater than 50% total Fe and less than 18% SiO2 as a cut-off for the material at their facility. The Company's Block 103 Project covers an area of over 72 square kilometres of the Menihek region centrally located within TSMC's ongoing operations. The Company has permits in place for its planned exploration program on its wholly owned Block 103 Iron Ore Project (the "Project") in Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada. The current permits include up to 2,000 meters of trenching over 20 separate proposed locations, and up to 13 kilometres of access trails needed to access the target sites. The Company believes there is potential to identify near surface DSO style mineralization suitable for processing at TSMC adjacent and currently operating beneficiation facility. Block 103 is located near well-established infrastructure in the heart of the Labrador Trough, Newfoundland and Labrador, approximately 30 km northwest from the town of Schefferville, Quebec and 1,200 kilometres by air northeast of Montréal, QC. Previous work by the Company includes geological mapping, geophysical surveys and diamond drilling programs. Total drilling now stands at 115 drill holes aggregating over 28,000 metres.

M3 Metals Corp. Provides an Update on Its Ongoing Activities M3 Metals Corp. provided an update on its ongoing activities. Block 103 Iron Ore Project: The Company reported that it has received permits for its planned exploration program on its wholly owned Block 103 Iron Ore Project (the "Project") in Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada. The permits were received after experiencing significant delays in the permitting and consultation process due to the Covid-19 Pandemic. The current permits include up to 2,000 meters of trenching over 20 separate proposed locations, and up to 13 kilometres of access trails needed to access the target sites. The Company believes there is potential to identify near surface DSO style mineralization suitable for processing at TATA Steel Mineral Canada's ("TSMC") adjacent and currently operating beneficiation facility. The Company is planning to begin work in early 2021, including road building, trenching and sampling programs. The trenching and sampling program will enable the Company to follow-up on its previous airborne and ground geophysics surveys which were designed to identify DSO (Direct Shipping Ore) style mineralization. The DSO targets occur surrounding the Company's wholly owned 7.2 billion tonne magnetite iron ore resource at 29.2% TFe (see Company's technical report dated March 21, 2013 available on Sedar). Project Highlights: Magnetite ore is a "greener" source of iron and represents the future trend of steel production. 7.2 Billion tonne iron ore resource outlined 100% within the Project area, PEA completed. Seeking strategic partner to advance the magnetite iron resource. Current resource represents approximately 25% of total potential contained on Project. Aggressive plan to explore for near-term potential value through identification of DSO. Potential to sell DSO material to adjacent beneficiation facility already in operation. Currently, TSMC is producing DSO mineralization from deposits to the north, south, and east of the Block 103 project area. TSMC is processing iron ore material with greater than 50% total Fe and less than 18% SiO2 as a cut-off for the material at their facility. The Company is also seeking a strategic partner to aid in the advancement its Block 103 project which represents a generational supply of high quality iron ore. The development of the Block 103 resources can provide an environmentally friendly source iron ore due to the projected high grade and quality of the magnetite concentrate which can be blended in with lower quality ores and provide significant energy savings and reduced carbon emissions during the smelting process. The Company will pay a finder's fee to the successful party, if any. Block 103 is located near well-established infrastructure in the heart of the Labrador Trough, Newfoundland and Labrador, approximately 30 km northwest from the town of Schefferville, Quebec and 1,200 kilometres by air northeast of Montréal, QC.
