Q2 Metals Discovers New Spodumene Pegmatite Occurences and Extends the Mia Lithium Exploration Trend to 9.7 Kilometres

Vancouver, BC, Sep 13, 2023 – (ACN Newswire) – Q2 Metals Corp. (TSXV: QTWO) (OTCQB: QUEXF) (FSE: 458) ("Q2" or the "Company") is pleased to provide an update on its surface mapping and rock sampling activities at the Mia Lithium Property (the "Property") located in the Eeyou Istchee James Bay territory of Quebec.

Four new spodumene pegmatite occurrences1 have been discovered on the Mia Exploration Trend (see Figure 1). Three of the outcropping pegmatite zones are located between the previously known Mia and Carte mineralized zones (see previous Q2 announcement from June 29, 2023). The other new discovery is located 1,400 metres northeast of the Carte Zone, thus extending the distance between the lithium mineralized occurrences on the trend to 9.7 kilometres.

A total of 136 individual pegmatite outcrops have been mapped along the Mia Exploration Trend (see Figure 1). Rock samples have been collected at these sites to confirm the presence of lithium or indicator elements which may suggest the presence of lithium nearby. The majority of the pegmatite outcrops along the Mia Exploration Trend exhibit a similar mineralogy and texture compared with the outcrops that have confirmed spodumene.

To date, 212 rock samples have been collected on the Property since re-mobilization. The crew will continue the current mapping and sampling campaign until September 15. Following that, Q2 will return mid-October to begin its drill program starting at the Mia Zone. It is anticipated that drilling will continue until weather conditions become unfavorable, and then return once again during frozen ground conditions in January, 2024.

"The work completed thus far in a short amount of time back on the Property has exceeded my expectations. The true scale of the Mia Trend is unfolding with our work, and sets the stage for our follow up core drilling campaign," said Neil McCallum, VP Exploration for Q2 Metals.

Palladium One Expands Its Tyko Nickel – Copper District by 8,620 Hectares, Ontario, Canada

TORONTO, ON, Sep 11, 2023 – (ACN Newswire) – Palladium One Mining Inc. (TSXV: PDM) (OTCQB: NKORF) (FSE: 7N11) (the "Company" or "Palladium One") is pleased to announce the expansion of the Tyko Nickel – Copper District, with the acquisition of the highly prospective "Tyko II Copper – Nickel – PGE" property, located approximately 10 kilometers north of the Tyko I (formerly "Tyko") property, and 15 kilometres east of the town of Manitouwadge, Ontario, Canada.

HIGHLIGHTS

– Property position expanded by 8,620 hectares. The new property ("Tyko II") is located 10 kilometers north of the main Tyko (now referred to as Tyko I) property and has been acquired through a combination of staking and two claim group purchases.

– Exploration potential:
— Historic grab samples suggest a strong potential for copper – nickel – PGE mineralization:
—- 1.17% Cu, 0.73% Ni, 2.4 g/t Pd, 0.2 g/t Pt (Kejimalda Zone)
—- 0.54% Cu, 0.11% Ni, 1.0 g/t Pd, 0.4 g/t Pt (Moshkinabi Zone)
—- 2.46% Cu, 0.22% Ni (Gionet Zone)
—- 6.70% Cu, 0.17% Ni (Faries Lake Zone)
— Multiple untested historic ElectroMagnetic ("EM") anomalies provide developed drill targets.
— Historic exploration has identified multiple copper – nickel – PGE showings which are associated with the Faries-Moshkinabi Mafic-Ultramafic complex and which share geological similarities to the Tyko I Property.

– Existing exploration drill permits and a network of logging roads allow for near term drilling.

"This property expansion bolsters the Company's nickel – copper strategy in a premiere mining jurisdiction and specifically in a highly prospective, relatively unexplored region, where it now controls 38,130 hectares. Tyko II brings an additional pipeline of drill permitted magmatic copper – nickel sulphide targets. The Tyko II project has many geological similarities to Tyko I with several untested historic EM anomalies. Prior to our high-grade discovery, the Smoke Lake zone also began as a historic untested EM anomaly. Just like Tyko I, Tyko II has seen surprisingly little historic exploration or even government mapping.

"Having completed the majority of the planned 2023 prospecting, mapping and soil sampling program, the Company is on track to begin drill testing new and existing targets in mid-October.

"With $14.5 million of cash on hand as of the end of Q2 the Company is well financed for our planned activities," commented Derrick Weyrauch, President and CEO.

Transaction Details

The Tyko II Property was acquired through a combination of staking (47 claims, totalling 994 hectares) and claim purchases (307 claims totalling 7,627 hectares) from local prospectors.

The claim purchases include aggregate consideration of:

– $100,000 cash,
– 2.3 million common shares of the Company as follows:
— 1.1 million common shares issued at Closing,
— 0.4 million shares issued 4 months from Closing,
— 0.4 million shares issued 8 months from Closing, and
— 0.4 million shares issued 12 months from Closing
– A Net Smelter Return Royalty ("NSR") in respect of 137 claims

Completion of the transaction is subject to TSX Venture Exchange approval.

Property Location and Description

The Tyko II Property is located approximately 10 kilometers north of the main Tyko I Property and roughly 15 km east-southeast of the town of Manitouwadge, ON, (Figure 1). The claim block encompasses magnetic anomalies associated with the Faries-Moshkinabi Mafic-Ultramafic Complex. The property is accessible via a network of all season logging roads.

Exploration History

The Tyko II Property area has seen limited government reconnaissance mapping programs dating as far back as 1932. In 1953 the world class Geco Copper-Zinc mine was discovered in the nearby Manitouwadge greenstone belt, 15 km to the northwest. Early geological mapping and mineral exploration in the area was focused largely on the Manitouwadge greenstone belt, to the north of Moshkinabi Lake, whereas Tyko II lies south of the lake.

The earliest organized exploration program in the Moshkinabi Lake area dates back to 1960's when Falconbridge Nickel Mines Ltd completed EM and Magnetic ("Mag") surveys, including seven reconnaissance drill holes. In the late 1980's Noranda Minerals Inc (Geco Division) ("Noranda") conducted further reconnaissance exploration consisting of 16 diamond drill along a northwest trend east of Faries Lake discovering substantial copper mineralization at the Faries Lake Zone. Noranda subsequently completed a large Digem airborne EM and Mag survey that covered the majority of the Tyko II and the northern half of the Tyko I properties, this EM survey also identified the anomaly which eventually resulted in the discovery of the high-grade Smoke Lake Nickel-Copper Zone on Tyko I, several EM conductors from this historic geophysical survey remain untested on the Tyko II property. Subsequent sporadic exploration south of Moshkinabi Lake identified multiple Cu-Ni-PGE mineral showings within the Faries-Moshkinabi mafic to ultramafic complex (Table 1, Figure 2).

Table 1. Historic Copper-Nickel Showings on the Tyko II Property
https://www.newsfilecorp.com/release/180135

Geology Overview

The Faries-Moshkinabi Mafic-Ultramafic Complex is located along the southern edge of the Manitouwadge-Hornepayne Greenstone belt ("MHGB") (Figure 2). The Complex is part of the Wawa-Abitibi Terrane and lies at the northern boundary of the Wawa subprovince (Stott, 2011), it is intruded by tonalitic rocks associated with the Black-Pic batholith.

The Ontario Department of Mines was the first to document the occurrence of mafic to ultramafic rocks east of Faries Lake (Milne, 1968). However, it was not until Williams and Breaks (1989, 1990) of the Ontario Geological Survey that reconnaissance mapping outlined the extent of mafic to ultramafic rocks in the vicinity of Faries Lake and south of Moshkinabi Lake that the Faries-Moshkinabi Mafic-Ultramafic Complex was defined. The Complex is described as consisting of a layered suite of gabbro, leucogabbro, anorthosite, and peridotite overlain by thin lens of amphibolitized mafic metavolcanic rocks (see Figure 2).

The world class Geco ("Volcanogenic Massive Sulphide") VMS deposit is located along the western margin of the MHGB, approximately 15 km northwest of the Tyko II Property. From 1957 to 1995, the Geco Mine produced over 49.3 Mt of ore grading 1.85% Cu, 3.78% Zn, and 56.2 g/t Ag (Puumala et al., 2020); in addition, the satellite Willroy, Willecho, and Nama Creek Mines entered production of copper-zinc-lead-silver ore at various times during this period. The Tyko II property contains altered volcanics rocks with similarities to those which host the Geco Mine and thus is also prospective for VMS hosted copper – zinc as well and magmatic hosted nickel – copper mineralization.

Future Work

The Faries-Moshkinabi Mafic-Ultramafic Complex is associated with several Cu-Ni-PGE showings, making it a compelling target with similarities to the Company's Tyko I property. An airborne Versatile Time Domain Electromagnetic airborne ("VTEM") survey and soil sampling of historic EM anomalies is planned to commence shortly. A majority of the Tyko II property is also covered by existing drill permits which will allow drill testing by year's end.

Rover Metals Announces Results of Expanded Phase 1 Surface Exploration Program at Its LGL Lithium Project, Nevada, USA

Vancouver, BC, Sep 7, 2023 – (ACN Newswire) – Rover Metals Corp. (TSXV:ROVR)(OTCQB:ROVMF)(FSE:4XO) ("Rover" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that further to its release of August 1, 2023, management of the Company, including Mr. James Ingraffia, have completed a successful field visit and surface sampling program at the Let's Go Lithium ("LGL") project, NV, USA.


Picture of Sample 348420


Summer 2023 Work Program

Management, including Mr. Ingraffia, spent a week in the field this summer at the LGL program. The purpose of the field visit was to orient Mr. Ingraffia with the project as well as confirm previously reported high-grade lithium surface samples at the project, with the goal of starting work on a geological map of the clay body at LGL. Mr. Ingraffia will work with Rover's CEO, in the coming weeks and months, on a Plan of Operations For Exploration and any necessary environmental assessment that may be required under the U.S. National Environmental Policy Act ("NEPA").

James Ingraffia

James is a senior lithium geologist specializing in Nevada. Mr. Ingraffia is the founder of Lithium Arrow LLC. He has seven years of experience in lithium economic geology, and is a highly trained specialist in lithium claystone and experienced in lithium brines and pegmatites. He got his start with the United States Geological Survey in lithium brine and claystone geochemistry, in partnership with Pure Energy Minerals before its purchase by Schlumberger. He then characterized the Thacker Pass lithium claystone deposit, from the atomic to kilometer scale, and published the results in partnership with Lithium Americas Corporation and the Nevada Bureau of Mines and Geology. He holds a Master's Degree of Geology, with training in Business Administration, from the University of Nevada Reno and a Bachelor's of Geology from California State University Northridge. Mr. Ingraffia is based in Reno, NV.

Surface Sampling Results

The results of Mr. Ingraffia's surface sampling work is provided in the below table. Lithium grades have been analyzed using a SkiAps 903 Handheld Laser Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy ("HH LIBS"):

Sample ID | Method | Grade (ppm Li)
348222 averaged | HH LIBS | 850.35
348421 | HH LIBS | 680.1
348420 averaged | HH LIBS | 1,032.75
348419 | HH LIBS | 371.9
348418 | HH LIBS | 606.9
348417 | HH LIBS | 436.6
348416 | HH LIBS | 631.4
348415 | HH LIBS | 253.4
348414 | HH LIBS | 417.3

A SkiAps LIBs 903 analyzer was used to assay these samples. The QA/QC protocols for the LIBs are as follows: (a) it was calibrated for Claystones; (b) it was tested on a known Claystones lithium sample prior to fieldwork; and (c) the field samples were shot in a controlled environment, inside, with proper cleansing of the lens, and sample separation. The highest grades were shot several times to try to eliminate any nugget affect; (d) fine ground particulates were not tested, so no pucking was necessary.

An initial geological map of the LGL project, including all new and historic surface samples reporting higher then 400 ppm Li (including historic laboratory assays and historical HH LIBS work) can be accessed at the following link:

Geological Map
https://rovermetals.com/summer-2023-sampling-program

Technical information has been approved by David White, P.Geo., QP for the purposes of NI 43-101.

Judson Culter, CEO at Rover Metals, states "the results of the summer 2023 work program reinforces managements' working model of the LGL project. We believe the project to be an at, or very near to surface clay deposit, with open pit mine potential. Although claystone lithium deposits typically have higher grades at depth, we're getting high grades of lithium near to surface at LGL. Lhoist North America has been open pit mining specialty clays in the area since the 1970s. Management believes that mining exploration and mining activities can co-exist along side the national parks in the vast rural area of the Amargosa Valley of Nevada. Management has been working through the summer to short-list preferred environmental consulting firms, and we hope to finalize the consultant for our NEPA process within the next few weeks."

GMG Product Commercialisation Process, Corporate Growth & Channel Strategy

BRISBANE, AUS, Sep 6, 2023 – (ACN Newswire) – Graphene Manufacturing Group Ltd. (TSXV: GMG) ("GMG" or the "Company") is pleased to outline three important strategies: the Company's product commercialisation process, organic corporate growth strategy and product distribution channel strategy.

The Company's Product Commercialisation Process (see Figure 1) is to develop the Company's products through four stages, including: (i) developing the initial product concept, (ii) making the product repeatedly and verifying it will meet the target market needs with external testing, (iii) building the capacity to produce and sell the product, including regulatory approvals and organisation, and (iv) building awareness, making and selling the product into the route to markets developed.

Figure 1: Product Commercialisation Process. *GMG Graphene Powder is made for use in GMG's products.
https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/8082/179690_graphene_01_550.jpg

The Company is also pleased to announce Thermal XR is now in the fourth and final stage of commercialisation; building awareness, making and selling the product. G Lubricant is positioned in the second stage as it is currently undergoing product market testing and the Graphene Aluminium Ion Battery (G+AI Battery) is also in the second stage as the battery is currently undergoing product development and optimisation (see Company's news release dated May 29, 2023).

The Company's intended organic Growth Strategy (see Figure 2) is to progress the products through the commercialisation process to be able to grow revenues from making and selling Thermal XR(R) and G Lubricant whilst developing Energy Storage products (i.e. the Graphene Aluminium Ion Battery). Supporting both will be the continued development and growth of GMG's Graphene production engineering capability.

Figure 2: Corporate Growth Strategy.
https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/8082/179690_graphene_02_550.jpg

Meanwhile, the Company plans to continue developing Energy Storage products with the goal of adding selected partners from different verticals to co-sponsor and accelerate development. Rio Tinto is the first such sponsor, targeting Graphene Aluminium Ion battery for mining haul trucks in the mining and mineral processing sector.

The Company's intended Channel Strategy (see Figure 3) is to sell its Energy Saving products through relevant industry segment distributors in various geographic locations and/or co-branded products for further distribution. The co-branded products allow product co-developers to share in GMG's branded logo and product technology through their existing production, distribution and sales infrastructure. The Company sees this as a way to distribute its product and increase GMG's footprint faster and wider. For larger companies where bespoke or new applications require product development and/or support, direct sale would initially be undertaken.

Figure 3: Channel Strategy.
https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/8082/179690_graphene_03_550.jpg

The Energy Storage products, based on the Graphene Aluminium Ion Battery, will primarily be direct business to business sale (B2B Direct) as new technology battery customers require intensive technical engagement with their battery suppliers to ensure they work effectively in their products.

GMG's 4 critical business objectives remain to:

1. produce Graphene and improve/scale the production process;
2. build revenue from Energy Savings Products;
3. develop Next-Generation Battery; and
4. develop supply chain, partnerships and project-execution capability.
