Update on Lucky Mica Project

The Company is also pleased to provide an update on the field exploration activities that commenced on May 2, 2023, at its Lucky Mica Property (the "Property") in Maricopa County in Arizona, USA. To date the field team has completed general prospecting, mapping and sampling of pegmatite outcrops and structural mapping on the property. The team has identified an abundance of 'new' previously unmapped and sampled pegmatites in three clusters as shown in Figure 1 below. These pegmatites are described to occur as 2-6m wide bodies potentially up to 50-100m long and appear to occur conformant with the local metamorphic foliation and may vary in dip from shallow to steeply dipping. While quartz and feldspar are known to be more resistant to erosion and weathering, the identified pegmatites appear to be within weathered amphibolite, also known as greenstone, in the area (See Figure 2). This is consistent with the lepidolite and spodumene weathered piles identified in the Lucky Mica region on the property which have returned results up to 7.5% Li2O.

A total of approximately 250 samples have been collected from these clusters and an additional 100 will be collected on the property before the team leaves the field next week. All samples with be delivered to SGS Laboratories in Phoenix, AZ for analysis with results expected in 6-8 weeks.

Ongoing lithostructrual interpretation is expected to proceed within the next 6-8 weeks with delivery of the results to coincide with the returned analytical results of the approximate 350 samples collected in May. This data acquisition and processing of remote sensing on the property will be completed by Axiom prior to the follow up trenching phase this fall. The results of these various exploration methodologies will be compiled and utilized in the strategic development of the trenching program both in the known Lucky Mica area as well as within the regions of the 3 newly discovered pegmatite clusters. Additional prospecting and sampling will be conducted within priority zones to further determine a broader geochemical understanding of the property as a whole.
