Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - March 24, 2020) -  Palladium One Mining Inc. (TSXV: PDM) (FSE: 7N11) (OTC Pink: NKORF) (the "Company" or "Palladium One") reports that due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company is suspending the current exploration program at the palladium dominant, Läntinen Koillismaa ("LK") PGE-nickel-copper project located in Finland.

In response to escalating health concerns for our employees, their families and the communities in which we operate in, travel restrictions, and a plea from the Canadian government for all Canadians to return home, the Company repatriated all Canadian staff on March 16, 2020 and upon arrival they began a minimum 14-day quarantine period. The Company would like to thank the professionalism of its Finnish team during these challenging times.

The Company's exploration program will conclude having completed the full 75-line kilometers of Induced Polarization (IP) and 385-line kilometers of drone Magnetic geophysical surveys, and approximately 2,000-meters of the planned 5,000-meter diamond drilling program.

"The COVID-19 pandemic and it's repercussions are continuing to evolve. The duration of capital market volatility is unclear. Suspending our exploration program early allows the Company to maintain a robust liquidity position. We will continue to monitor the situation and plan to resume the exploration program when appropriate." commented Derrick Weyrauch, President and CEO.
