TORONTO, Aug. 26, 2025 /PRNewswire/ - Power Metallic Mines Inc. (the "Company" or "Power Metallic"
(TSXV: PNPN) (OTCBB: PNPNF) (Frankfurt: IVV) Power Metallic is pleased to announce the appointment of Seamus O'Regan to its board.
Seamus O'Regan Jr joined Stewart McKelvey, Atlantic Canada's largest law firm, in March of 2025 as Senior Business Advisor following a distinguished career in politics and journalism. He was first elected Member of Parliament for St. John's South-Mount Pearl in 2015, and re-elected in 2019 and 2021.
He served as Canada's Minister of Energy & Natural Resources, overseeing Canada's first Critical Minerals Plan, the Critical Minerals List, the National Hydrogen Plan, and the Small Modular 6Reactor Action Plan. He has served as Minister of Indigenous Services, Minister of Labour, Minister for Seniors, Minister of Veterans Affairs and Associate Minister of National Defence.
O'Regan was born in St. John's, Newfoundland, and raised in Goose Bay, Labrador.

In 1999, he graduated Master of Philosophy from the University of Cambridge, with a focus on Indigenous participation in large-scale natural resource development.
He began his career in the Government of Newfoundland and Labrador, first as executive assistant to Minister of Justice & Attorney General Edward Roberts, then as policy director to Premier Brian Tobin. Seamus went on to work as a journalist, notably for a decade as a host of CTV's Canada AM, the country's leading morning news program.
Seamus is a Fellow of the Royal Canadian Geographical Society, and has served on the Boards of World Wildlife Fund Canada, Canada World Youth, Katimavik, The Company Theatre, and The Rooms. He is proud to have been an Ambassador for Bell Let's Talk, removing stigma around mental illness.
"We are very pleased Seamus accepted our offer. His skillsets in government affairs particularly his time as Energy & Natural Resources Minister and Minister of Indigenous Services will be very helpful as we look to guide our High Grade Polymetallic (Copper, Platinum, Palladium, Gold, Silver, and Nickel) discovery "Nisk" at Nemaska, Quebec through exploration to development and what we hope will be the world's first carbon neutral Polymetallic mine. Increasingly critical mineral projects like Nisk are becoming vital not only for the economic output of the potential mine but the roles these materials play in the Defense, Industrial and AI infrastructure the modern world requires. We look forward to utilizing the unique perspective and insights Seamus can provide", commented Power Metallic CEO Terry Lynch.
"I'm excited about the Nisk discovery and how Power Metallic plans to bring this project to market. Canada is uniquely positioned to lead the world in these types of developments given our incredible mineral wealth, expertise and geopolitical position. I look forward to working with the Power Metallic team to make this project a reality", commented Seamus O'Regan.
Power Metallic is currently engaged in a 100,000 meter drill program. It currently has four rigs turning on the project with a fifth expected to be added in early September. Initial results from the summer campaign are expected shortly and thereafter every 2-4 weeks through the end of the year.
Power Metallic has granted an aggregate of 1,150,000 incentive stock options at $1.45 per share to Mr. O'Regan and certain officers of the Company for exercise period upto five years from the date of grant.
