Introduction and Background

Fulcrum Metals plc was incorporated in England & Wales on 10 October 2022 and is the holding company of a mineral exploration group with base, precious and energy metal projects in Canada. Canada is a politically stable jurisdiction that is rich in mineral resources.

On Admission its project portfolio will comprise six gold and base metal projects in Ontario totalling 252km², covering the Schreiber-Hemlo, Wawa, Winston Lake and Dayohessarah Greenstone Belts, and two uranium and gold projects in the Northern Athabasca Basin region of Saskatchewan totalling 136km².

The Projects are pre-discovery with large, diversified land packages that have either substantial historical samples or prospective geology and located nearby mineral rich deposits or producing mines. Fulcrum sees the uranium projects as an opportunity to capitalise on the increasing global recognition and investment towards nuclear energy as a way of decarbonising base load power.

The main focus of Fulcrum is to advance, develop, and scale the flagship Schreiber-Hemlo Project comprising the Big Bear and Jackfish Lake properties whereby the Group has amassed a significant land position of circa 113km². The properties have 38 recorded mineral occurrences, high grade gold in rock samples and shear zones that have real potential for the discovery and development of an economic mineral deposit.

The Company's latest investor presentation is available on the company's website.
