NOTES TO EDITORS
Power Metal Resources plc - Background
Power Metal Resources plc (AIM:POW, OTCQB:POWMF) is a London-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, Saudi Arabia and Australia.
Project interests range from early-stage greenfield exploration to later-stage
prospects currently subject to drill programmes.
Power Metal will develop projects internally or through strategic joint
ventures until a project becomes ready for disposal through outright sale or
separate listing on a recognised stock exchange thereby crystallising the
value generated from our internal exploration and development work.
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.
