              (“Europa Metals”, the “Company” or the “Group”) (AIM, AltX: EUZ)

                       Issue of Options and Directors’ Dealings

Europa Metals, the European focused lead-zinc and silver developer, announces that, further
to the approval of resolutions 2 to 5 at the Company’s Annual General Meeting held on 30
November 2020, the Company has today granted, in aggregate, 1,380,000 options to the
Company’s Executive and Non-Executive Directors (the “Incentive Options”). The Incentive
Options are exercisable at 8.89 pence per share for the Executive Directors and at 12.89
pence per share for the Non-Executive Directors, being the 10-day VWAP and a 45% premium
to the 10-day VWAP, up to and including 17 December 2020, respectively.

In addition, 20,000 options, originally intended to be issued to Daniel Smith, pursuant to the
passing of resolution 5, have instead been issued to a consultant of the Company, on the
same terms as the Incentive Options granted to the Non-Executive Directors. Accordingly,
Daniel Smith has been granted 80,000 Incentive Options as set out below.

Further details on the Incentive Options issued to the Executive Directors and the resultant
total options held by each such director are set out below:
