Toronto, August 19, 2024 - GPM Metals Inc. (TSXV: GPM) ("GPM" or the "Company") is pleased to announce an upsize to its previously announced non-brokered private placement to up to 41,666,668 units of the Company (the "Units") at a price of C$0.06 per Unit for aggregate gross proceeds of up to approximately C$2,500,000 (the "Upsized Offering"). Each Unit will consist of one common share of the Company and one-half of one common share purchase warrant of the Company (each whole common share purchase warrant, a "Warrant"). Each Warrant will entitle the holder thereof to acquire one common share of the Company at a price of C$0.10 for a period of 24 months from the closing of the Upsized Offering.

The proceeds of the Upsized Offering will be used by the Company for exploration efforts at its Walker Gossan Project located in Australia and for general corporate purposes and working capital.

The Upsized Offering is subject to the receipt of all regulatory approvals including the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange ("TSXV"). All securities issued under the Upsized Offering will be subject to a hold period expiring four months and one day from the date of issuance. The Upsized Offering is expected to close on or about August 30, 2024, or such other date as determined by the Company. No finders' fees are expected to be payable in connection with the Upsized Offering.

Insiders of the Company are expected to subscribe for up to 11,666,667 Units under the Offering. The insiders' participation in the Offering constitutes a "related party transaction" as defined under Multilateral Instrument 61-101 Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions ("MI 61-101"). Such participation is exempt from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements of MI 61-101 as neither the fair market value of the securities acquired by the insiders, nor the consideration for the securities paid by such insiders, exceed 25% of the Company's market capitalization.
