Global Atomic Provides Update on the Dasa Uranium Project

Plans to Break Ground for the Mine Portal On Schedule for Q1 2022

TORONTO, Sept. 15, 2021 - Global Atomic Corp. ("Global Atomic" or the "Company"), (TSX: GLO) (OTCQX: GLATF) (FRANKFURT: G12) today provided an update on critical aspects of the Dasa Uranium Project in the Republic of Niger.

Internal Review of the Feasibility Study ("FS")

• the Company is currently engaged in an internal review of key elements of the FS
• the review provides the Company with the opportunity to audit key FS assumptions, ensure Dasa is an efficient and modern operation, and attain the highest level of project cost certainty
• results of the Company's pilot test program and successful testing of Dasa Ore at Orano Mining's nearby Somaïr Mill confirm the process flow sheet and higher metal recoveries than carried in our April 2020, Preliminary Economic Assessment for Dasa
• the COVID-19 pandemic has disrupted supply chains around the world and management are sourcing solutions to mitigate delivery issues and lower logistics costs
• the review has identified opportunities to increase the participation of Niger national contractors, reduce costs and ensure quotations for certain major equipment components will meet standards for a bankable Feasibility Study

Mining Plans on Schedule

• Global Atomic's local team in Niger has been moving forward with quotations for contractors to begin the initial work to open the mine
• plans to break ground to excavate the Box Cut for Dasa's mine Portal are on schedule for Q1 2022
• negotiations continue with Orano Mining to finalize an agreement for direct shipment of ore (DSO) to their Somaïr Mine in Arlit, Niger

Stephen G. Roman, President and CEO commented, "Our review of the draft Feasibility Study has identified a number of opportunities to enhance the economics and operating cost profile of the Dasa Project. We expect our internal review, as well as further negotiations on pricing with suppliers of goods and services, to result in significant cost savings. This will translate into a Feasibility Study we can present to our current shortlist of interested project finance banks. We now anticipate a report filing in late Q4 2021, however, we remain on schedule to break gound in Q1 2022 to excavate the Box Cut and collar the Portal in early Q2 2022 and then begin the development of the Dasa underground mine."

"Significant activity is underway at the Dasa Project site to make that happen, including a selection process to hire a mining contractor and begin development work. As a result of the closure of the Cominak Mine in March 2021, we look forward to hiring skilled personnel from this well trained work force to form the foundation of our own mining team. The benefits to Niger from the long life Dasa Project will go a long way towards replacing the social and economic benefits lost due to the shutdown of the Cominak Mine."
