Gungnir Resources' Lappvattnet Nickel Project Designated a "Property of National Interest" in Sweden

SURREY, BC / ACCESS Newswire / December 8, 2025 / Gungnir Resources Inc. (GUG:TSX-V)(ASWRF:OTCPK) ("Gungnir" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that its Lappvattnet Nickel Project has been officially designated a "Property of National Interest" by the Swedish Geological Survey (SGU).

This designation is highly significant, as it provides protection for Lappvattnet from competing land uses that could hinder future mining activities. It also represents a major milestone for the Company, with the potential to streamline future permitting processes and strengthen Gungnir's ability to attract partners and investment for ongoing exploration and development.

Lappvattnet and Rormyrberget Nickel

The Lappvattnet and Rormyrberget nickel deposits are located along the "Nickel Line" in the eastern part of the Vasterbotten District, 60 km and 100 km respectively east of the Company's Knaften gold exploration project. The deposits are held 100% by Gungnir under two separate permits covering an area of 471.3 hectares. The properties are accessible year-round with good transportation and industrial infrastructure including shipping facilities as there are a number of active mines in the area. Gungnir acquired both deposits in open staking in 2015. Existing licenses covering both deposits are currently valid to early January 2027.

Two of the top nickel sulphide deposits in Sweden

• Company's first drill program at Lappvattnet initiated in August, 2021; drilled a total of 7,345 metres in 53 holes in from 2021 to 2023

• Collectively contain 80 million kg of nickel (using historic results from the 1970s):

- 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.

• 100% Gungnir subject to a royalty option purchase agreement for 2% GSR for CDN$8 million from Altius Minerals (Lappvattnet and Rormyrberget together)

• Accessible year-round with good transportation and industrial infrastructure including shipping facilities, and are located about an hour drive from Boliden's mill complex

• Potential to expand the deposit beyond the current 2020 Lappvattnet nickel resource, in particular the shallow down-plunge extension target in the eastern half of the property where historic drilling is very sparse

• Recently discovered Footwall Zone at Lappvattnet offers further upside potential at Lappvattnet

Nickel resources totally 177 million pounds of nickel for Lappvattnet and Rormyrberget were updated in 2020.

• 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.

Corporate Update

The Board of Directors continues its search for a new CEO and will provide updates as appropriate in accordance with applicable securities laws. In the interim, the remaining Board members will oversee discussions with interested parties regarding the Company's future initiatives, including potential additions to the Board and management team, new partnerships, and possible asset transactions.

Advancing the Company's projects will require successfully strengthening the Board and management team and securing additional funding - whether through traditional financing, an earn-in arrangement, or a potential merger or asset sale. Gungnir's Knaften-Hemberget projects host multiple gold and base-metal exploration targets, ranging from drill-ready gold prospects to early-stage anomalies, supported by a large, under-explored land position along the Swedish Gold Line. The Company continues to seek new leadership candidates and manage its capital prudently to remain compliant with all regulatory requirements.
