GME Resources Ltd. provided an update on the progress of the Definitive Feasibility Study ("DFS" or the "Study") for the NiWest Nickel Cobalt Project ("NiWest" or the "Project") including key new personnel appointments made in the business. The DFS continues to progress under the management of engineering partner Ausenco. New appointments of leading consultants have been made in key areas to complement and support Ausenco.

Specialist North American engineering company EXP has been appointed to carry out engineering design and cost estimation for the acid plant. EXP is a large engineering company with extensive experience in the application of the latest sulphuric acid technology which maximises energy recovery and minimises stack emissions. The acid plant is a critical piece of infrastructure which will produce sulphuric acid for the Heap Leach process by consuming elemental sulphur and in the process, produce steam for power generation.

The self-generation of electricity from the acid plant results in NiWest Project having a very low energy intensity (80 MJ/kg Ni), which leads to significant cost and environmental benefits. When benchmarked against other nickel projects globally, this compares well to the 190-211 MJ/kg Ni average identified by the Nickel Institute (2020) and Norgate (2010). Furthermore, EXP's specialist process and chemical knowledge in the design, construction and commissioning of large acid plants will combine well with Ausenco's experience with procurement and construction services in remote Western Australia.

Knight Piésold has been appointed to carry out specialised design work for the heap leach area, residue storage facilities and site wide water management structures. Knight Piésold is a globally recognised firm which has worked with many large mining projects in Australia and also has extensive international experience in working globally with Heap Leach projects. Global mining consultancy firm SRK has been appointed to carry out the resource modelling for the Project which will include the Mt Kilkenny, Hepi, Eucalyptus and Wanbanna deposits.

Further drilling works will be undertaken under SRK management to convert further Inferred Mining Inventory to Measured and Indicated to supplement the revised Mineral Resource Estimate that they will provide for the DFS. Kirk Mining Consultants have been appointed to carry out mining consultancy services, including mine planning, mine scheduling and Ore Reserve estimation. Kirk Mining Consultants will provide an updated Ore Reserve Statement for the NiWest project as part of the DFS.

Rockwater has been appointed to carry out hydrology studies to determine and optimise high quality groundwater sources for the project. Rockwater provides specialist services in groundwater exploration and borefield development, operation and licencing.
