Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - July 6, 2022) - Power Group Projects Corp. (TSXV: PGP) (the "Company") is pleased to announce that, further to its press release of April 25, 2022, it has entered into an arm's length share purchase agreement (the "Share Purchase Agreement") dated June 6, 2022 between the Company, 1311516 B.C. Ltd. ("BCCo") and the shareholders of BCCo (collectively, the "Vendors") to acquire all of the issued and outstanding common shares in the capital of BCCo (the "Transaction"). BCCo is a private company incorporated under the laws of the Province of British Columbia, whose sole assets are option agreements dated February 25, 2022 and March 3, 2022 (the "Option Agreements") with Cloudbreak Discovery PLC ("Cloudbreak") and Cloudbreak Discovery (Canada) Ltd. (together with Cloudbreak, the "Optionor"), whereby BCCo has the option (the "Option") to acquire a 75% interest in certain mineral claims in the Province of British Columbia (the "Rizz Project" and the "Icefall Project").

As consideration for the Transaction, the Company will issue an aggregate of 46,200,000 common shares in the capital of the Company (the "Common Shares"), at a price of $0.05 per Common Share to the Vendors. Upon closing of the Transaction, BCCo will become a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company and the Company would assume all obligations owing to the Optionor under the Option Agreements.

The Rizz Project covers 5,415 hectares of mineral titles in northwestern BC, situated in the Boundary Ranges Metamorphic Suite and Sloko Group plutonic and volcanic rocks west of the Llewellyn fault. Mineralization is documented in the Sloko-Hyder plutonic suite with several gossanous zones identified for immediate follow up. The known mineralization is described as sulphide-rich felsite boulders and talus in one of the cirques on the property. Assay results from historic samples of this mineralization include up to 27.6 grams per tonne ("g/t") gold, 562.9 g/t silver, 8.25% lead and 15.9% zinc. Follow-up work will include exploring for the source of this strongly mineralized float material.

The Icefall Project is underlain by Stuhini and Labarge Group volcanic and sedimentary rocks and is continuous along strike from Brixton Metals Corp's Thorn Gold-Copper-Silver Project to the southeast. Granitic intrusions have been mapped on the northern and southern bounds of the claim block, which covers 8,704 hectares. The property is bounded between the Llewellyn fault to the west and King Salmon fault to the east, with several north-trending structures noted on the property. The geology is favourable to host mineralization comparable to several Minfile occurrences noted immediately west of the claim boundary, which include historic grab sample results of up to 35.5 grams per tonne silver and 0.5% copper. Although there are no Minfile occurrences on the Icefall Property, the favourable geology and mineralized trends are the basis of the exploration thesis in this under-explored region of the province.

Under the terms of the Rizz Option Agreement, BCCo may exercise the Rizz Option to acquire a 75% interest in the Rizz Project upon payment of an aggregate of $120,000 in cash payments (the "Rizz Option Payments") and incurring an aggregate of $750,000 in expenditures (the "Rizz Expenditures") on the Rizz Project as follows:
