TORONTO, May 9, 2017: GPM Metals Inc. (TSXV: GPM) (the “Company” or “GPM”)  commences Ground Magnetics Survey at the Pasco Project, Department of Pasco, Peru.

The 100% owned Pasco claims (6,300 hectares) are located in the Central Peruvian Zinc belt, approximately 30 Km NE of the Cerro de Pasco Mine and 35km N of the Votorantim / Pan American owned Shalipayco discovery.

The Pasco Project is a 6,300 hectare, district scale, greenfields, base metal discovery. These concessions had not  been subjected to modern mineral exploration or drilling prior to the staking and acquisition of the properties by the Company’s Peruvian Agent in 2014.

The Pucara hosted style of Pb-Zn-Ag mineralization at surface, displays similar geological characteristics to the recently discovered zinc resource at Tinka Resources, Awawilca deposit, located approximately 60  kilometers to the NW in the Department of Pasco.

Mineralization is hosted within a 5km by 500m zone of dolomitized limestones of the prolific Pucara Formation, at the contact with the Mitu Formation, within a regional scale anticline.  Structurally, on a district scale, the mineralization is located at the intersection of a North South trending basement / basin margin structure and the North East oriented Chancay – Cerro de Pasco Megafracture which cuts and offsets the Coastal Batholith, and forced igneous migration eastwards during the Cenozoic era.

The style of mineralization is carbonate replacement, though structurally hosted Au and Cu / Au mineralization in adjacent claims suggests potential for later overprints of intrusive related mineralization.

XRF analysis of the samples has defined a 4.25km by 1 km trend anomalous in Silver (20ppm to 152ppm), Lead (100ppm to 3.97%) and Zinc (1000ppm to 2.7%). Two zones highly anomalous in lead and zinc have been delineated. The southern anomaly is currently 1.2km by 500m and open to the south and the northern anomaly is 500m by 500m.

Grab samples containing up to 13.3% Zinc, 19.15% Lead and 466ppm Silver were collected from relatively fresh outcrops within the system. 130 five meter long channel rock chip samples were also collected. In the southern anomaly, samples of strongly weathered and leached outcrop are noted as generally anomalous in Lead and Silver, with 75m @ 9.4ppm Silver and 4075ppm Lead in trench 1 being the best result to date.

Location and sampling results are available at the Company web site link / Projects – Peru http://gpmmetals.com/node/49  (see April 14, 2016 Company press release available on SEDAR www.sedar.com).  The grab samples disclosed above are selective samples and are not representative of the mineralization hosted on the Pasco Project.

Soil samples were taken on a grid of 50 by 50 meters. The soil samples were taken from the B horizon at 25 to 30 cm depth from the surface. The weight of each sample was 2-3 kilograms. The soil samples were analyzed using XRF (The DELTA Handheld XRF model DCC-6000) on site.

Rock Chip samples were taken in continuous channels of 30 to 75 meters long. Individual samples were 5m in length.  An electric hammer was used for rock sampling.  The weight of each sample was 3.5-4.5 kilograms. Rock samples were assayed at ALS Chemex Lab in Lima Peru using their ME-ICP61 (33 Elements four acid ICP-AES) method.

Asesores y Consultores Mineros S.A. has completed an ESIA study which has been approved bythe Environmental Studies General Directorate, Peruvian Ministry of Energy and Mines as a prelude to a drill program.

As a follow up to 2015 and 2016 mapping and surface sampling programs at the Pasco Concessions GC Ground SAC, Lima- Peru is currently undertaking a ground magnetic survey of approximately 140 line kilometers.

Upon completion of this survey, the data results will be analysed and interpreted by GPM Metals to further delineate and prioritize diamond drill targets for a proposed 1st pass 2000 m drill campaign.

An Exploration / Access Agreement has been signed with the commune of Huachon, and logistical support, field assistants and supply chain operate from the commune of Huachon.

All scientific and technical information in this press release has been prepared under the supervision of Dan Noone, (Vice President Exploration and a Director of GPM),  a “qualified person” within the meaning of National Instrument 43-101. Mr. Noone (B.Sc Geology, MBA) is a member of the Australian Institute of Geoscientists.  Potential quantity and grade is conceptual in nature.  There has been insufficient exploration to define a Mineral Resource at the Pasco Project to date, and it is uncertain if further exploration will result in the property being delineated being delineated as a Mineral Resource.

Toronto – November 18, 2016 – GPM Metals Inc. (TSXV:GPM) (the “Company” or “GPM”) announces that seven diamond drill holes for 953 meters have been completed at the Walker Gossan Project (“WGP”) in the Northern Territory.

The project is a joint venture / earn in agreement between the Company and Rio Tinto Exploration PTY Ltd. (see January 27, 2014 press release of the Company available on SEDAR at www.sedar.com).

GPM is conducting exploration for SEDEX style base metal mineralisation in the Walker Fault Zone, a Proterozoic sedimentary basin which is the northern most of a series of extensional basins stepping NW from  Mt Isa and which host the lead-zinc-silver mines at Mt Isa, George Fisher, Lady Loretta, Century and McArthur River.

Drilling was conducted over 3200m of strike length (hole WD#7 to WD#4) and 1200m – east to west (hole WD #7 to hole WD#5). Drilling is targeting SEDEX style base metal mineralization.

Drill hole locations, section diagrams and assay tables are found on the company’s web site.

www.gpmmetals.ca/australia

The drill holes tested the Balbirini Fm which hosts the “gossan”, an iron and silica altered carbonate unit, and down sequence through a carbonaceous siltstone and basal sandstone which unconformably overlies the Jalma Fm sediments. Stratigraphic thickness from the top of the ferruginous dolostone to the basal unconformity is approximately 35m.  Thickness of the Jalma Fm is approximately 110m.

The drill targets are being identified by systematic mapping, sampling, airborne magnetics and ground IP surveys.

The initial target area has encouraging surface geochemistry with soil and chip sample results of anomalous lead, including a 1400m long contour of plus 500ppm lead with a maximum of 2800ppm lead. Rock chips have confirmed the soil results with values as high as 1.8% lead. (see November 19, 2015 press release of the Company available on SEDAR at www.sedar.com).

The presence of pyritic, carbonaceous siltstones and base metal mineralisation has been confirmed in this programme. A basin margin fault to the west of the drilled area is interpreted from airborne magnetics and a recently conducted ground gravity survey and will be tested during the RC drill programme.

Assays are consistent with surface geochemical sampling and are typical of a sulphur poor outflow zone of a SEDEX style base metal system. The intense sideritic (iron carbonate) alteration observed is generally found proximal to mineralisation in SEDEX systems. To date 584 samples from holes WD#1 to 6 have been cut and assayed on 0.5 and 1m intervals. Assays for DDH- WD#7 are pending. The second phase of reverse circulation (RC) percussion drilling has now commenced.

The RC drilling will infill the wide spaced diamond drill pattern and then move northwest to test a combined magnetic and gravity anomaly.

The North – South trending magnetic and gravity anomaly is located 5km north of WD#7 and 1.5km west and down-dip of the outcropping gossanous Balbirini Fm. This anomalous feature is interpreted to be a basin margin fault and the potential major conduit for mineralising fluids.

Although early in our current exploration campaign, we are encouraged by the large volume of sideritic (iron carbonate) alteration encountered, and the presence of pyritic carbonaceous sediments in the Balbirini and Jalma Fm, confirming the potential to host a significant SEDEX style deposit.

Initial observations from drilling on EL 24305 point to the target mineralisation being located down dip (basin-ward / to the west) on the adjacent ELA 30956 tenement. ELA 30956 is currently held under application by Rio and forms part of the earn in ground.

Meetings to progress several applications to grant are scheduled for 2017 and GPM anticipates the results of this current successful programme to impact those in a positive manner.

“Initial drilling has shown that we are in a very large SEDEX style alteration system with potential to host a significant discovery. I am confident that with the information at hand and the results from the continuing drilling, that we will be able to vector into the core of the mineralisation“ said Patrick Sheridan Jr., Executive Chairman and CEO of GPM Metals.
