October 4, 2022 – TheNewswire - Coquitlam, British Columbia – Fuse Cobalt Inc. (“the Company” or “Fuse”) (TSXV:FUSE), (OTC:FUSEF), (FRA:43W3) is pleased to announce the Company has received the final geophysical report from Simcoe Geoscience and has commenced a diamond drill program at the Glencore Bucke Property.

The IP survey successfully detected geophysical signatures possibly related to narrow veins and sulphide and/or cobalt mineralization. The drill program has begun and is expected to be completed in approximately three weeks.

The IP Survey Highlights:

• Forty (40) individual chargeability anomalies across all eight (8) geophysical line-sections. 

• Two (2) main anomalous zones that correlate across the line-sections (AZ-1 and AZ-2). 

• Four (4) linear features traceable across a minimum of two line-sections that have potential to be a structure of interest. These are classified as ‘First Priority Targets’. 

• The west side of the grid contains the strongest of the geophysical anomalies and has the longest correlate able linear feature trending roughly North-South.  

• The anomalies on the North-West part of the grid seem to positively correlate with the historical drilling assay results.  

The drill program has been planned to follow-up existing intercepts from the 2017-2018 drilling at depth as well as test the First Priority Target’s outlined in the geophysical report. This year’s drill program has an initial budget of $500,000.

Prior diamond drilling results from the 2017-2018 drill campaign include:

• GB17-07 intersected 7.64% Co over 0.26m from 99.79 to 100.05m. 

• GB17-10 intersected0.55% Co over 5.00m from 28.00 to 33.00m 

• GB17-15 intersected 0.90% Cu over 20.20m from 42.50 to 62.70m, including 8.42% Co over 0.30m from 62.40 to 62.70m. 

• GB17-21 intersected 1.25% Cu over 6.10m from 67.50 to 73.60m, including 0.73% Co over 0.60m from 69.7 to 70.30m. 

• GB18-44 intersected 0.11% Co and 1.04% Cu over 8.40m from 110.60 to 119.00m.  

The above intervals represent core lengths, and not true widths (NI 43-101 Technical Report on the Teledyne Cobalt and Glencore Bucke Project Feb 4, 2021).

The Glencore Bucke Property consists of two patented mining claims totaling approximately 16.2 ha in area located on the west boundary of Fuse’s Teledyne Cobalt Project. In 1981, Teledyne leased mining claim 585, now the “Glencore Bucke Property”) from Falconbridge Nickel Mines Ltd. The company recognized the significant exploration potential that the Property had due to the possible southern extensions of veins from the Cobalt Contact Mine property adjoining to the north that could project southward onto the Property. Their work delineated two mineralized zones, named the Main Zone and Northwest Zone, measuring 500 ft (152.4 m) and 200 ft (70.0 m) in length respectively on the Glencore Bucke property.

About Fuse Cobalt Inc.  https://fusecobalt.com/

Fuse Cobalt Inc. is a Canadian based exploration company that trades under the symbol FUSE on the TSX Venture Exchange. The Company's focus is on exploration for high value metals required for the manufacturing of batteries.

Ontario Cobalt Properties

Fuse owns a 100% interest its Glencore Bucke Property, situated in Bucke Township, 6 km east-northeast of Cobalt, Ontario, subject to a back-in provision, production royalty and off-take agreement.  The Glencore Bucke Property consists of 16.2 hectares and sits along the west boundary of Fuse’s Teledyne Cobalt Project.  The Company also owns a 100% interest, subject to a royalty, in the Teledyne Project located near Cobalt, Ontario.  The Teledyne Property adjoins the south and west boundaries of claims that hosted the Agnico Mine.

Glencore Bucke/Teledyne Property

Situated in Bucke Township, 6 km east-northeast of Cobalt, Ontario the Glencore Bucke Property adjoins, on its northeast corner, the former cobalt producing Agaunico Mine. From 1905 through to 1961, the Agaunico Mine produced a total of 4,350,000 lbs. of cobalt (“Co”), and 980,000 oz of silver (“Ag”) (Cunningham-Dunlop, 1979). The amount of cobalt produced from the Agaunico Mine is greater than that of any other mine in the Cobalt Mining Camp. Production ceased in 1961 due to depressed Co prices and over-supply (Thomson, 1964). The Glencore property is 100% owned by Fuse Cobalt subject to a back-in provision, production royalty and off-take agreement

The associated Teledyne Property, located in Bucke and Lorrain Townships, consists of 5 patented mining claims totaling 79.1 ha, and 46 unpatented mining claim cells totaling approximately 700 ha. The Property is easily accessible by highway 567 and a well-maintained secondary road.

Over $25 million Can has been spent thus far, (2020 dollars inflation-adjusted) on the Teledyne Property resulting in valuable infrastructure including a development ramp and a modern decline going down 500 ft parallel to the main cobalt mineralized vein. The Teledyne Property is subject to a production royalty in favor of New Found Gold and an off-take agreement in favor of Glencore Canada Corp., while the Glencore Bucke Property is subject to a back-in provision, production royalty, and an off-take agreement in favor of Glencore Canada Corp. Glencore PLC is the world’s largest producer of cobalt. A significant portion of the cobalt that was produced at the Agaunico Mine was located along structures (Vein #15) that extended southward towards the northern boundary of the Teledyne Cobalt Property, currently 100% owned by FUSE. Mineralization was generally located within 125 ft (38.1 m) above the Huronian/Archean unconformity. Stoping widths of up to 50 ft (15.2 m) were not unusual at the Agaunico Mine (Cunningham-Dunlop, 1979).
