Further Exploration Targets Identified at Bayan Springs
Bayan Mining and Minerals (BMM:AU) has announced Further Exploration Targets Identified at Bayan Springs
Quarterly Activities/Appendix 5B Cash Flow Report
E-Power Starts Metallurgical Testwork at SGS Canada Inc
James Cross, President and CEO of E-Power commented:"Our Tetepsica property hosts a number of surface showings with the potential to be flake graphite resources. The 2024 propspecting on our northern claim group added to this inventory with the discovery of several new showings characterized by multiple high graphite grade samples with underlying conductor continuity. Our ongoing metallurgical test work is designed to evaluate the metallurgy and concentrate characteristics; determining, comparing, and contrasting the response from several showings. We intend to continue to evaluate the geology, mineralogy, and metallurgy of the property through the 2025 field season with the objective of prioritizing targets for drilling and resource delineation.
During the 2024 field season, a total of 1,037 kilograms (1.037 tonnes) comprising four bulk samples including the Captain Cosmos (1), Syndicate (1) and Graphi West (2) graphite showings were collected (Figure 1). Field duplicates, consisting of 2 to 3 kg samples taken from each of the bulk sample excavation sites returned Cg values that are consistent with and above the average resource Cg grade in the Tetepisca district (approximately 14% Cg). The results are presented table 1 below. The final report on a detailed mineralogy study on samples from the three target areas utilizing reflected and transmitted light petrography and a Scanning Electron Microscope is pending. Preliminary results of the study document a range of graphite grain sizes, associated gangue mineralogy and graphite grain-gangue mineral textures. All three samples contain large to jumbo flakes free of metamorphic intergrowths or inclusions supporting a positive metallurgical response.

Preliminary evaluation of flake graphite recovery from the four Tetepisca samples was completed at Volt Carbon Technolgies Inc. ("Volt") using Volt's proprietary dry separation techniques. The study consisted of several trial air separation runs on selected samples from each zone followed by determination of Ct and Cg of the resulting concentrates. The results confirm the presence of large and jumbo flake in all samples and indicate that graphite can be separated from Tetepisca ore feed using Volt's dry separation technique. A high value of 96.4% Ct and 93.5% Cg was attained from the +14 mesh fraction of a trial run from the Syndicate showing and a high value of 95.8% Ct and 91.7% Cg was attained from the +40 mesh fraction of a trial run from the Graphi-West showing. The average Cg results for all trial runs of flakes +30 mesh (Jumbo) was 90.90% Cg for the Syndicate showing and 90.32% Cg for the Graphi-West showing. The average analytical results for all trial runs of flakes +40 mesh (Jumbo+Large Flakes) was 90.45 for the Syndicate showing and 89.60 for the Graphi-West showing.
The metallurgical test work being completed at SGS Canada Inc. will provide E-Power with, among other information, ore feed head grades, recovery factors, concentrate compostion, and flake size analysis which will contribute to the evaluation of resource delineation targets.

(TheNewswire)
Vancouver, BC TheNewswire - February 3, 2025 Coniagas Battery Metals Inc. (TSXV: COS) ("Coniagas" or the "Company"), is pleased to engage the services of Laurentia Exploration to design and manage ongoing exploration activities at the Graal property, highlighting the potential of this strategically located asset near Saguenay-Lac St. Jean, Quebec.
Frank J. Basa, President and CEO, stated, "The prospect of expanding upon known zones and finding new zones containing nickel, copper, cobalt and PGM at Graal is encouraging from the results of the completed drill programs. Numerous drill hole intercepts confirm the potential of Graal property for hosting significant and thick massive sulfides mineralization. We will continue to add to these results within known mineralized zones to increase our understanding while stepping out to expand those zones along the defined trends while exploring for new zones."
Historical Exploration Highlights:
The Company is excited to add to the reported excellent drilling results from the MHY, Gravi and Discovery zones, confirming shallow, near-surface mineralization. Certain significant drill intercepts include PGM values added to the equivalents:
MHY Zone : Holes GRL-22-60 and GRL-22-61

Figure 1
Next Steps:
The Company has engaged Laurentia Exploration to design and manage the program while continuing the permitting process to be able to expand the near surface zones at Graal. This expansion aims to further delineate the resource potential and enhance the economic viability of the project.
The Company intends on following up on the geophysical anomaly delineated by TDEM surveys on the MHY zone that indicated a large conductive layer interpreted to be approximately 1.7km long with a minimum depth extent of 850m . Due to the nature and extent of the Graal mineralization, this survey returned a strong response to this electromagnetic. Â The Company plans to use the same method to explore and generate new drill targets between MHY and Discovery Zones. Several BHEM (Borehole electromagnetic surveys) made in the previous drill campaign also reveal several other conductors and extension modelled by Maxwell that need to be tested or delineated.
Currently, the interpreted models indicate a potential for a low-grade, large-volume orebody with local and smaller but richer and thicker lenses along the mineralized trend, as seen in the intersection made in drillhole GRL-22-61. This scenario suggests the possibility of having a large, low-grade starter pit that can evolve to underground mining of the rich higher-grade pockets .
Strategic Location:
The Graal property boasts an excellent location north of Saguenay-Lac St. Jean, offering several logistical advantages:
Year-Round Accessibility: The site is road-accessible and drill-ready throughout the year.
Proximity to Infrastructure: The nearby Chute-de-Passe power station provides reliable and cost-effective energy.
Local Industrial Hub: The town of Lac-St. Jean, an industrial hub, offers a skilled workforce and port access to the St. Lawrence River.

Brunswick Exploration Reports Phase 1 Metallurgical Results at Mirage with Potential for DMS-Only Flowsheet
Brunswick Exploration Inc. ( TSX-V: BRW OTCQB: BRWXF ; FRANKFURT:1XQ; ; " BRW " or the " Company ") is pleased to report preliminary, Phase 1, metallurgical results from test work on drill core samples from the Mirage Project. The test was conducted by SGS Canada Inc. in Lakefield, Ontario and comprised of heavy liquid separation ("HLS") testing, and dense media separation ("DMS") testing. The program was completed on a representative mineralized dyke comprising of material from MR-6, MR-3, MR-4 and a single dyke in the stacked dyke area.
Highlights include:
- Potential for best-in-class flow sheet consisting of crushing followed by dense media separation only with no need for flotation. Projects with similar flow sheet have consistently demonstrated lower milling operating cost to achieve industry standard concentrate grade of 5.5% Li2O.
- Preliminary recoveries of 76% producing a spodumene concentrate grading 5.5% Li2O for HLS testing and recoveries of 68.4% producing a spodumene concentrate grading 5.7% Li2O for DMS testing both at coarse grain size.
- Low iron concentration in both HLS and DMS concentrate indicative of high quality spodumene with low impurities. Current testwork suggest no deleterious elements identified in either concentrate.
- Further test work is planned in 2025 to build upon this initial set of results with opportunities to increase DMS recoveries already identified.
Mr. Killian Charles, President and CEO of BRW, commented: "As we continue to advance Mirage, we are pleased to reveal that lithium extraction at Mirage could potentially utilize a DMS-only circuit without the need for higher cost flotation to increase recoveries to acceptable levels. The resulting concentrate is considered clean with low iron concentrations and low level of other impurities. Importantly, today's preliminary results are generally in-line with high quality projects such as Patriot Battery Metals' Shaakichiuwaanaan project or Winsome's Adina project. We will look to further characterize and potentially improve on these metallurgical results in 2025 as we continue to grow Mirage's value proposition.
Phase 1 Metallurgical Test work
This first test program was planned, directed and completed with the support of BBA Consultants ("BBA"). The metallurgical test work was undertaken at SGS Canada Inc. in Lakefield Ontario using four (4) representative composite drill core intersects (see Table 1). These intersections were chosen based on their representativity of the Mirage project to date and were blended to form one master composite sample upon which the test program was performed.
Table 1: Selected Composite Intercepts
Dyke | Hole ID | Li2O (%) | Length (m) | Proportion | |
MR-6 | MR-24-91 | 1.40 | 56 | 42 | % |
MR-3 | MR-24-94 | 1.10 | 9.9 | 23 | % |
MR-4 | MR-24-92 | 3.30 | 14.1 | 21 | % |
Stacked Dyke | MR-24-76 | 3.09 | 10.9 | 14 | % |
Following validation of the proportion and the assay grade of each intercept, the material was blended and subjected to master composite characterization and HLS sample preparation. No "ore dilution" with waste rock was applied in this Phase 1 test program.
Two feed size options were prepared for HLS tests: 9.5 mm and 6.3 mm. Both samples were screened from 0.85mm and the resulting fine fraction was removed to improve the efficiency of the separation process. Only the coarse fraction is subjected to HLS or DMS testing. Recoveries of the fine fraction combined with the middlings of the DMS is typically achieved through grinding, desliming and flotation and is in the flowsheet if economic recoveries cannot be achieved by coarse beneficiation only, such as DMS.
Based on preliminary HLS results (see Table 2), higher recoveries were observed when material was crushed to 6.3 mm. This sample was selected for further evaluation for DMS-only recovery with a concentrate grade target of approximately 5.5% Li2O. The test was successful and achieved an above average concentrate grade of 5.7% Li2O concentrate with an overall lithium recovery of 68.4% from a feed sample with a head grade of 1.59% Li2O. Iron concentration was evaluated at 0.65% Fe2O3 with all deleterious elements well below penalty levels (see Figure 1).

Next Steps
Further work is planned for the Mirage project to advance metallurgical testing program. The company will focus on continuing drill exploration and to advance the project to reach a first mineral resource estimation. Following this milestone, the metallurgical testing program will be completed by testing the representative samples of the developed material by investigating the impact of ore dilution and identifying opportunities for further process optimization.
Process Definitions
Heavy Liquid Separation  (HLS): HLS tests involve repeated tests at multiple densities in synthetic heavy liquid solutions to determine the optimum SG for mineral separation. In this case, the heavy liquid comprised of methylene iodide diluted with acetone to target various specific gravity (SG) cut points including 2.65, 2.70, 2.80, 2.85, 2.90, 2.95, and 3.00. The test work is used to determine the susceptibility of ore to dense media separation process.
Dense Media Separation (DMS): Dense media separation tests are carried out to estimate the real life response of the ore to dense media separation and done by applying gravity separation at selected media densities (during HLS tests), which are prepared by mixing ferrosilicon and/or magnetite in water in this project.
Option Grant
The Company's Board of Directors have approved the grant of incentive stock options to directors, officers, employees and consultants to purchase up to an aggregate of 3,430,00 common shares in the capital stock of the Company. Grants are subject to a three-year vesting period and a five-year term at an exercise price of $0.14 per share.
QAQC
All drill core samples were collected under the supervision of BRW employees and contractors using HQ size for MR-24-91, MR-24-91, MR-24-94 and NQ size for MR-24-76. Samples were bagged and groups of samples were placed in larger bags, sealed with numbered tags, in order to maintain a chain of custody.
