Gungnir Resources Inc.

SURREY, BC / ACCESSWIRE / November 15, 2021 / Gungnir Resources Inc. (TSXV:GUG)(OTC PINK:ASWRF) ("Gungnir" or the "Company") is very pleased to report more near surface, high-grade nickel results at the Company's Lappvattnet nickel deposit in Sweden. Today's results are highlighted by yet another wide, near surface nickel intercept in drill hole LAP21-12. Assays are pending for drill holes LAP21-13, -14 and -15.

Jari Paakki, CEO commented, "The story is just beginning for Gungnir at Lappvattnet where we are having early success expanding nickel mineralization, including both high-grade and wide-grade nickel intercepts, with only 1,300 metres of drilling which tested just a small fraction of the deposit. We have yet to test depth extent, which is largely unexplored, and the remaining 80% of the Lappvattnet deposit along strike to the east where prior drilling decreased considerably. And we have yet to drill a hole into our other Swedish nickel asset, Rormyrberget."

Drilling Details:

The Company's recently completed its initial 2021, 15-hole (1,300 metre) drill program at Lappvattnet. Drilling covered a strike length of 140 metres which represents just 20% of the total strike length of the nickel deposit (sections 7.5E to 11E); please refer to the map in the newly updated corporate presentation on the Company's website. New drilling and assays are expected to be incorporated into future resource upgrades.

Hole LAP21-12 was drilled on Section 7.5E and hole LAP21-11 was drilled on Section 9.5E, both on sub-sections with 20 metre spacings. Hole LAP21-12 hit mineralized peridotite (disseminated and blebby sulphides) starting at a down-hole depth of 20 metres including a narrow massive sulphide section at 33.2 metres. Drill hole LAP21-11 was drilled up-dip of Gungnir's holes LAP21-09 and -10 (resulted reported in news release dated November 10, 2021) and appears to have just skimmed the top of main mineralized zone, but still contained nickel mineralization. Hole LAP21-12 was drilled 80.0 metres at a dip of -65 degrees at location 1,741,495mE and 7,165,151mN and LAP21-11 was drilled 74.60 metres at a dip of -50 degrees at the same set-up as LAP21-09 and -10 at location 1,741,530mE and 7,165,161mN. Co-ordinates above are in Swedish co-ordinate system RT90-2.5, and both holes were drilled at an azimuth of 340 degrees. Once all drill results have been received a complete set of sections will be available on the Company's website. Currently, sections 8E, 9E and 10E are available in the Company's corporate presentation.

Drill core was logged and tagged for sampling at the Company's core logging facility in Lycksele then shipped to ALS Minerals' Core Services Laboratory in Mala. Core was sawed on site in Mala by ALS staff and prepped sample material was sent to ALS's Lab in Ireland. Core was analyzed for multi-elements using code ME-MS41, Cu OG46 analysis for >10000 ppm Cu, NiOG46 analysis for >10000 ppm Ni, and Pt, Pd, and Au were analyzed using fire assay method PGM-ICP27. Blanks and certified standards are routinely included in sample batches for quality assurance and control.

Nickel Resources:

Gungnir's nickel resources in Sweden include Lappvattnet and Rormyrberget. In 2020, the Company updated both resources which collectively total 177 million pounds of nickel (see Technical Report with an effective date of November 17, 2020). The properties are accessible year-round with good transportation and industrial infrastructure including shipping facilities and are located about an hour drive from Boliden's mill complex.

• Lappvattnet: Inferred Resource of 780,000 tonnes grading 1.35% nickel for 23.1 million lbs (10.5 million kg) of nickel.
• Rormyrberget: Inferred Resource of 36,800,000 tonnes grading 0.19% nickel for 154 million lbs (70 million kg) of nickel.
