Paul Johnson, Chief Executive Officer of Power Metal Resources plc commented:

"Our congratulations to the First Class Metals team for their work and
commitment to secure this listing.  In our view, First Class has a highly
prospective project portfolio centred within the prolific Schreiber-Hemlo belt
of Ontario, Canada, and offers investors an exciting new investment
proposition.

Moreover, with active exploration on the ground underway, including First
Class Metal's joint-venture (JV) partner Palladium One (TSX-V:PDM) drilling at
the Pickle Lake JV property, we anticipate active news flow from ground
operations.

Today's listing is a notable event for Power Metal, where a previous project
investment has now become a significant balance sheet asset. We will be
watching the progress of First Class with a keen interest.

Moreover, final preparations continue for the planned listing of Golden Metal
Resources plc, another North American investment opportunity centred on
Nevada, USA, and where Power Metal currently holds an 83.13% interest.  I
look forward to providing further updates in respect of Golden Metal in the
near term."

NOTES TO EDITORS

Power Metal Resources plc - Background

Power Metal Resources plc (LON:POW) is an AIM listed metals exploration
company which finances and manages global resource projects and is seeking
large scale metal discoveries.

The Company has a principal focus on opportunities offering district scale
potential across a global portfolio including precious, base and strategic
metal exploration in North America, Africa and Australia.

Project interests range from early-stage greenfield exploration to later-stage

separate listing on a recognised stock exchange thereby crystallising the

Value generated through disposals will be deployed internally to drive the
Company's growth or may be returned to shareholders through share buy backs,
dividends or in-specie distributions of assets.
