On July 9, 2025, NexMetals Mining Corp. (the “Company”) issued a press release, which is attached as Exhibit 99.1 hereto.
CautionaryStatements to Investors on Reserves and Resources
The news release furnished herewith uses the terms “mineral resources”, “indicated mineral resources” and “inferred mineral resources” as such terms are defined under Canadian National Instrument 43-101 - Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects (“NI 43-101”). NI 43-101 is a rule developed by the Canadian Securities Administrators, which establishes standards for all public disclosure a Canadian issuer makes of scientific and technical information concerning mineral projects.
On October 31, 2018, the SEC adopted new mining disclosure rules (“S-K 1300”) that are more closely aligned with current industry and global regulatory practices and standards, including NI 43-101, with which we comply because we are also a “reporting issuer” under Canadian securities laws. While S-K 1300 is more closely aligned with NI 43-101 than the prior mining disclosure rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission, there are some differences. Accordingly, there is no assurance any mineral resources that the Company may report as “indicated mineral resources” and “inferred mineral resources” under NI 43-101 will be the same as the reserve or resource estimates prepared under S-K 1300. Investors should not assume that any part or all of indicated mineral resources or inferred mineral resources will ever be converted into a higher category of mineral resources or into mineral reserves. Mineralization described using these terms has a greater amount of uncertainty as to their existence and feasibility than mineralization that has been characterized as reserves. Accordingly, investors are cautioned not to assume that any “indicated mineral resources”, or “inferred mineral resources” on the Company’s projects are or will be economically or legally mineable. Further, “inferred resources” have a greater amount of uncertainty as to their existence and as to whether they can be mined legally or economically. Therefore, investors are also cautioned not to assume that all or any part of the inferred resources exist. In accordance with Canadian rules, estimates of “inferred mineral resources” cannot form the basis of feasibility or other economic studies, except in limited circumstances where permitted under NI 43-101.
In accordance with General Instruction B.2 of Form 8-K, the information in Item 7.01 is being furnished and shall not be deemed to be “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liability of that section, and shall not be incorporated by reference into any of the Company’s filings or other documents filed under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.

NEXMETALSACCELERATES EXPLORATION TARGETING HIGH-GRADE
MINERALIZATIONOUTSIDE OF SELKIRK MRE INCLUDING 5.59% CUEQ OVER
3.95METRES VERIFIED BY PREVIOUS REASSAY PROGRAM
Vancouver,British Columbia, July 09, 2025 – NexMetals Mining Corp. (TSXV: NEXM) (OTC Pink: PRMLD) (the “Company”) is encouraged by the progress of its current drilling program at its past-producing copper-nickel-cobalt-platinum group elements (“Cu-Ni-Co-PGE”) Selkirk Mine in Botswana and is expanding the exploration efforts to include a targeted electromagnetic (“EM”) program. With the metallurgical drilling program nearing completion with a total of 2,819 metres drilled in 10 holes, the Company is preparing to advance to the next phase of exploration. This next phase of exploration will focus on outlining high-grade mineralization through borehole electromagnetics (“BHEM”), the same technology used at the Selebi Mines, and drilling of untested historical Versatile Time-Domain Electromagnetic (“VTEM”) anomalies located immediately south of the Selkirk resource.
Highlights
| ● | A previous re-assay program of historical core confirms high-grade mineralization including 8.69% CuEq^1^ and elevated Rhodium outside of current mineral resource estimate (see Technical Report) (figure1). |
|---|
| ◌ | DSLK083: 3.95 metres of 1.1%Cu; 3.57% Ni; 0.07% Co; 1.27ppm Pt;1.72ppm Pd; 0.18ppm Rh (5.59% CuEq) |
|---|---|
| Incl.<br> 1.93 metres of 0.33%Cu; 6.31%Ni; 0.11% Co; 0.36ppm Pt;1.27ppm Pd;0.32ppm Rh (7.48%CuEq) | |
| Incl.<br> 0.52 metres of 0.09%Cu, 7.77%Ni, 0.10% Co, 0.26ppm Pt, 1.21 ppm Pd, 0.35ppm Rh (8.69% CuEq) | |
| ● | BHEM surveys underway in metallurgical holes to outline the extent of the known high grade mineralized zones and explore a footwall<br> zone. |
| --- | --- |
| ● | Planned drill testing of VTEM conductors, targeting untested high-priority anomalies adjacent to Selkirk within the existing mining license<br> (figure 2). |
| ● | Geophysical results and interpretation expected to highlight potential new priority targets. |
Review and re-assaying of historical drill holes in proximity to the Selkirk deposit support the potential for underground mining scenarios and highlight the presence of discrete, high-grade sulphides in the footwall of the current mineral resource estimate.
MorganLekstrom, CEO of the Company, commented: “With our concurrent programs advancing at both Selebi and Selkirk we are very encouraged by what we are seeing in the work completed to date at both projects. Selkirk was a hidden gem in our portfolio and is now clearly demonstrating it has significant resource growth potential. In addition to our drilling at Selebi, focussed on the hinge area, we are now confirming that Selkirk has additional high-grade mineralization. By accelerating our exploration activity, we aim to highlight multiple new additional targets at Selkirk.”

BHEMand VTEM Programs
Once the metallurgical drill program is complete, the Company plans to reassign one drill to initiate drilling of key VTEM conductors, previously defined by a historical 2012 heliborne geophysical survey with no indication of drill testing. These conductors are situated near known mineralization within the existing mining license and represent potential new satellite discoveries.

HistoricalEstimates
The historical mineral estimates which have been prepared in accordance with South African Mineral Resource Committee (SAMREC) and Australasian Joint Ore Reserves Committee (JORC) standards are not in compliance with National Instrument 43-101 – Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects (“NI 43-101”) and NEXM is not treating the historical mineral estimates as current mineral resource estimates. While management believes that these historical mineral estimates could be indicative of the presence of mineralization on the Selkirk Mines property, the historical mineral estimate at Selkirk has been superseded by the current MRE prepared by SLR Consulting (Canada) Ltd. (“SLR”) and described in “NI 43-101 Technical Report Selkirk Nickel Project, North East District, Republic of Botswana”, and dated January 10, 2025 (with an effective date of June 30, 2024).
TechnicalReport
The MRE on the Selkirk Mine is supported by the Technical Reports entitled “NI 43-101 Technical Report Selkirk Nickel Project, North East District, Republic of Botswana”, dated January 8, 2025 (with an effective date of November 1, 2024 and “NI 43-101 Technical Report, Selkirk Nickel Project, Northeast District, Republic of Botswana” dated April 12, 2023 (with an effective date of March 31, 2023). Reference should be made to the full text of the Technical Reports for the assumptions, qualifications and limitations set forth therein, a copy of which is available on SEDAR+ (www.sedarplus.ca) under the Company’s issuer profile.
QualityControl
Historic drill core samples are NQ (47.6 mm diameter) that were previously sawn in half. All current samples are ¼ core cut by a diamond saw on site. The remaining ¼ core is retained for reference purposes. Samples are generally 0.30 metre or less and correspond to the historic sample intervals. Sample preparation and lab analysis was completed at ALS Chemex in Johannesburg, South Africa. Commercially prepared blank samples and certified Cu/Ni sulphide analytical control standards with a range of grades are inserted in every batch of 20 samples or a minimum of one set per sample batch. Analyses for Ni, Cu and Co are completed using a peroxide fusion preparation and ICP-AES finish (ME-ICP81).
