Power Ore Inc. set to Close on Mann Mine Cobalt Asset and MacMurchy Property

TORONTO, May 30, 2018 /CNW/ - Power Ore Inc. ("Power Ore" or the "Company") (TSX.V: PORE) is pleased to announce that it is set to acquire a 100% interest in the Mann Mine and the MacMurchy properties from Orefinders Resources Inc.

Pursuant to this the Company has made its final application to the TSX Venture Exchange for listing of the Power Ore's shares under the symbol 'PORE'. The Company has been advised that it expects to have its shares available for sale and trading on the TSX Venture Exchange on or about Monday June 4^th, 2018. This date is subject to change and final Exchange approval.

Power Ore is a brand new company, which at closing will have $1 million in cash, 29,973,333 common shares and 100% ownership of two advanced stage assets - the cobalt and silver Mann Mine and the MacMurchy nickel property.

"The initial value proposition for the company is that our flagship asset, the Mann Mine in the Cobalt-Gowganda district of Northern Ontario, holds up extremely well relative to our comparable companies' assets in the region. In fact, the Mann can be considered one of the most advanced stage assets in the district and one of the few that has actual and recent diamond drilling that demonstrates high grade mineralization for both cobalt and silver," said Stephen Stewart, Power Ore's CEO. He continues, "We are starting with a strong asset base, cash in the bank and a low share count which is tightly held by a group of very strong shareholders. Additionally, we will have a very active strategy whereby the market can expect to see Power Ore execute on a series of acquisitions that will make us a very relevant player in the battery metals space in Canada."
