Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - October 8, 2020) - Power Group Projects Corp. (TSXV: PGP) ("Power Group" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has entered into a binding letter of intent (the "LOI") with Pallplat Metals Inc. ("Pallplat" or the "Vendors") for the acquisition of the Muddy Gullies project in Newfoundland, Canada (the "Muddy Gullies Property" or the "Property"). In consideration for the purchase of the Property, on signing of a definitive agreement, the Company will issue the shareholders of Pallplat 12,900,000 common shares in the capital of the Company.

The Muddy Gullies Property is prospective for the exploration of platinum and palladium minerals and is comprised of 83 mineral claims. The Property is located 28 kilometers northeast of Gander, Newfoundland.

The completion of the transaction contemplated by the LOI remains subject to the Company and Pallplat entering into a definitive agreement and the approval of all regulatory and other approvals, including the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange.

About the Muddy Gullies Property

The Muddy Gullies Property is located 28 kilometers northeast of the town of Gander, NL. Route 330 affords easy access to the property as does Muddy Gullies access road which runs east from route 330.

The Property comprises 83 claim units covering ~20.73 square kilometres. The Property is host to several historical platinum, palladium, copper and gold showings, as indicated by the Mineral Occurrence Database System, Department of Natural Resources, Newfoundland & Labrador. The Property is underlain by a portion of the Gander River Ultramafic Belt (GRUB LINE) which consists of pyroxenite and lessor serpentinite, magnesite, amphibolite, hornblendite, and gabbro.

The mafic and ultramafic rocks of the GRUB LINE are considered to be an ophiolitic suite of volcanic and plutonic rocks which have tectonically emplaced over the Gander Groups.

Local and Regional Geology

The Muddy Gullies Property straddles the tectonic boundary between the Dunnage Zone to the northwest and the Gander Zone to the southeast. The Davidsville Group sediments represent rocks of the Dunnage Zone on the Muddy Gullies Property and consist of pebble conglomerate, sandstone, shale and siltstone. Areas to the west of the Gander River are predominantly underlain by rocks of the Davidsville Group. The Gander Zone is represented by rocks of the Gander River Ultramafic Belt (GRUB), which includes tonalite, intermediate to mafic volcanics, gabbro, serpentinite, pyroxinite and talc-magnesite altered ultramafics. Alternating sequences of the two contrasting rock groups outcrop across the property on the east side of Gander River and is interpreted to be shallow westward dipping thrusted slices.

J.P. Bouzane Associates Ltd. explored for gold, platinum, and palladium in the immediate area of the Property between 2000 and 2002. A third-year assessment report indicates combined values for platinum and palladium of up to 2400 ppb (J.P. Bouzane Associates Lt. 2000,2001,2002). Another company, 0840559 B.C LTD., in 2013 completed an airborne mag-em survey, mapping, prospecting, and limited drilling. The Vendors re-sampled areas sampled by Bouzane and confirmed platinum-group element ("PGE") mineralization and also outlined additional areas of anomalous PGE mineralization on the Property.

Samples by the Vendors were taken in the area of claim number 024113M. PGE mineralization seems to be controlled by a non-magnetic course-grained pyroxenite unit. Significant assays ranged from 198 ppb combined Pt+Pd+Au to 1245 ppb combined Pt+Pd+Au.
