Global Atomic Update and Outlook for 2023

TORONTO, March 20, 2023 - Global Atomic Corp. ("Global Atomic" or the "Company"), (TSX: GLO) (OTC-QX: GLATF) (Frankfurt: G12) is pleased to report on operations at its Turkish zinc recycling joint venture and its Dasa Uranium Project in the Republic of Niger.

Turkish Zinc Recycling Joint Venture

The zinc recycling plant in Iskenderun, Türkiye, has restarted production following the earthquakes earlier this year. Employees are relieved to be back at work to fund their rebuilding efforts and thankful for the support from the joint venture partners.

Dasa Uranium Project

All assays from Dasa's 2022 16,000-meter drill program have been completed at ALS Labs in Vancouver, Canada, and the database is now ready for final review and verification, including final K-factor adjustments. The data will then be transmitted to Dmitry Pertel, MAIG, of AMC Consultants for the development of the updated Mineral Resource Estimate ("MRE"). The MRE and a revised mine plan will then be used to develop a revised Phase 1 Feasibility Study for the Dasa Project.

At the Dasa Mine, operations are proceeding on schedule with approximately 200 meters of underground development now completed on the decline ramp as well as for re-muck and safety bays. A total of 800 meters will be developed before the ramp encounters development ore, expected in late Q4 2023. See photos below.

Engineering progress continues with DCPL and Lycopodium with first earthworks expected to begin in Q2. Long-lead items including the crusher, SAG mill and acid plant will be ordered by the end of March.

Global Atomic President and CEO, Stephen G. Roman commented, "Our two businesses position Global Atomic as one of the most environmentally progressive companies in the mining sector. Our zinc recycling plant in Türkiye is a key component in that region's circular economy, removing previously dumped waste materials in the form of Electric Arc Furnace Dust and producing high quality zinc concentrate for smelters in Europe. Our Dasa Mine is one of the few near term uranium producers under development today, uranium that will be used by international electric utilities to generate clean baseload power to support the increasing electrification of our planet."
