Heritage Mining Ltd. (CSE:HML) (FRA:Y66) (“Heritage” or the “Company”) is pleased announce significant advancements in the first few weeks of its fully permitted Phase 1 exploration drilling program at the flagship Drayton – Black Lake project (the “Project”) (Figure 1), located near Sioux Lookout, Ontario. The Project is located within Eagle-Wabigoon-Manitou greenstone belt of the Wabigoon Subprovince, which also hosts the Treasury Metals Inc. (TSE:TML) Goliath-Goldlund deposits.
Exploration Update:
New Millennium Area (Never Drilled): At least three mineralized deformation corridors consisting of multiple discrete zones of deformed volcanic rocks and shear parallel quartz veins. A 5m wide orogenic load gold style sheeted quartz veins identified in the hanging and foot wall was identified on the first day of mapping at the Project. Pyrite, Chalcopyrite, and Galena observed in the vein system, similar to New Millennium veins sampled to the north. Grab sample assays pending (Figure 2). The Company has also secured a contractor to clear a trail to the New Millennium Area for proposed drilling by month’s end, weather permitting.
Peter Schloo, President, CEO and Director commented, “A fantastic find on the team’s first day at New Millennium and the largest vein in the area to date. Leveraging our local relationships, we have secured a permitted trail ahead of schedule. The trail will provide for better access thereby increasing operational efficiency and the number of available drill targets. We will continue to work with all stake holders to advance the area in a collaborative manner inclusive of all stakeholders.”
Alcona Area: Mineralized deformation corridor over 1,000 m (up to 200 m wide) consisting of multiple discrete
zones of deformed volcanic rocks and shear parallel quartz veins. The team confirmed significant galena, pyrite, chalcopyrite and sphalerite associated with a 15m corridor of primary and secondary quartz veins at the Powerline Prospect (never drilled) which has been upgraded from proposed to drill ready-status (Figure 3).
Peter Schloo, President, CEO and Director commented, “The Powerline Prospect is a great window into the Alcona Area. This extension has never been drilled and is now a priority drill target with the potential of extending strike at depth. The access is fantastic, with logging active in the area, providing additional exploration upside.”
Moretti Area: Mineralized deformation corridor over 2,500 m consisting of discrete zones of deformed volcanic rocks and shear parallel quartz veins ranging from cm to meter scale. New Logging activities in the north eastern portion of the Property allow for improved access, ideal for prospecting and drilling over more than five historic mineral occurrences on the property inclusive of the advanced target, Moretti.
Peter Schloo, President, CEO and Director commented, “Recent logging activities is fantastic for our project. This increases the probability of new discovery and optimizes capital and operational efficiency pertaining to prospecting and drilling access. There is even a logging road going right past where we want to drill at Moretti. Simply put, We spend less time and capital getting there, and more time being there, fantastic.”
Corporate Update:
In less than two weeks from mobilization, the Company has secured vital equipment for Phase 1 mapping and exploration and coreshack facilities (Figure 5).

Heritage Mining
Overview
Mining in Ontario is big business. In 2021, Ontario’s mining industry produced roughly C$11.1 billion worth of minerals, accounting for 20 percent of Canada’s total production value. The importance of the mining industry has helped create a mining-friendly jurisdiction that understands the value of capitalizing on its natural resources. That’s why the Fraser Institute has ranked Ontario among the top 15 jurisdictions worldwide for investment attractiveness.
Additionally, the Canadian government is making a significant push to ramp up the production of critical minerals, including copper, lithium and aluminum. This push has resulted in more than 31 critical mineral projects in advanced exploration stages in Ontario,e paving the way for the development of a domestic supply chain for the country.
Heritage Mining (CSE:HML) is an exploration and development mining company with district-scale assets targeting gold and copper mineralizations within Ontario. The company’s flagship Drayton-Black Lake project is a strategically assembled district-scale project with encouraging bulk samples, high-grade gold intercepts and robust existing infrastructure. An experienced management team leads Heritage Mining with more than 100 years of combined experience working within the natural resources sector.
The Drayton-Black Lake project is a district-scale asset with a rich history, but a single company has never operated the entire area. Instead, it was split up among different operators and has never received systematic exploration to determine its mineralizations' actual width and depth.
As a result, Heritage Mining is launching the first systematic exploration program that will identify promising deposits throughout the entire area of this historic region from a low-grade, high-tonnage perspective.
The company entered a definitive asset purchase agreement with Bounty Gold Corp. to acquire 50 mining claims in the Split Lake zone adjacent to Heritage's flagship Drayton-Black Lake project. Heritage will acquire a 100 percent interest in the Split Lake property in exchange for issuing Bounty 100,000 common shares.
“Relative to other projects in the area, we are very close to infrastructure. There is a paved highway through the property, all-weather logging roads, and well-maintained ATV roads. So it’s quite a bit different than other projects in Northern Ontario: there are no ice roads and we don’t have to fly in to do work,” CEO Peter Schloo stated in an interview.
The company also operates the Contact Bay project containing high-grade copper-nickel mineralizations. The 4,700-hectare land package is within an active mining area and has known gold, nickel and platinum-palladium mineralizations. While the Drayton-Black Lake project is the main focus, Contact Bay will expose the company to critical minerals.
Heritage Mining’s management team has a proven track record in the mining industry and has overseen transactions exceeding C$15 billion. In addition, the team has experience in corporate finance, administration and geology.
Company Highlights
- Heritage Mining is an exploration and development mining company with district-scale opportunities in Ontario, Canada, targeting gold and copper.
- The company’s flagship project, the Drayton-Black Lake project, has strong historical results but has never been systematically explored from a low-grade, high-tonnage perspective. Heritage is the first company to own the entire area and will conduct a thorough exploration program to identify promising mineralizations.
- Drayton-Black Lake project has existing infrastructure that provides year-round highway access to the property, a significant advantage over other regional projects.
- Samples from the company’s 2022 field program showed multiple high-grade gold vein system channels.
- Heritage Mining’s Contact Bay project contains high-grade copper-gold mineralizations and exposes the company to the critical minerals market that is rapidly growing within Ontario.
- A veteran management team leads the company with a combined 100 years of experience in the mining sector.
Key Projects
Drayton-Black Lake Project
The 14,229-hectare project has undergone significant historical exploration, including more than 176 holes drilled, with high-grade gold and copper discoveries. The project is located in a mature mining district in Ontario, a jurisdiction known for its low geopolitical risk and mining-friendly government.
Project Highlights:
- Priority Zones Identified: Heritage Mining has identified four priority gold zones with multiple historic high-grade intersections that will guide future exploration programs. These zones are:
- Moretti Zone - Samples up to 1,212 g/t gold
- Split Lake Zone - 0.7 meters at 14.8 g/t gold
- Shaft Zone - 2 meters at 14.5 g/t gold
- West Zone - Up to 150.86 g/t gold
- Over 100 Years of Historical Data: Exploration data from the past century is being compiled to create a greater understanding of the area that will rapidly advance the project by guiding future exploration decisions.
- 2022 Field Program Completion: Exploration program included property-wide MagEM airborne geophysical surveying, regional mapping, prospecting and sampling in addition to the recently completed channel sampling work. Results from grab samples include:
- up to 58.1 g/t gold at Main Prospect
- up to 24.6 g/t gold at Pond Prospect
- up to 46.5 g/t gold at New Millennium Prospect
- up to 208 g/t gold at Moretti
- up to 0.95 g/t gold at Black Lake
- 2023 Drill Program Highlights: Completion of drill program validated and expanded the deformation corridor, now boasting an impressive ~200 meters width, 1 kilometer in strike length and a depth reaching at least 145 meters.
- Alcona Area, HML23-007: 0.90 g/t gold over 10.15 meters from 104.75 meters
- Moretti Area, HML23-012: 1.01 g/t gold over 5 meters from 105 meters
The Alcona Area has been approved for Phase II Drill Program to define its deposit potential.
Contact Bay Copper-Gold Project
The project covers 4,700 hectares and contains multiple high-grade copper-nickel and gold occurrences. Contact Bay is also located in Ontario andt is in the exploration phase, with targets identified for exploratory drilling.
Project Highlights:
- Promising Mineralization Styles: The asset contains a diverse range of mineralizations, including:
- Northeast - Rock sample assayed 0.40 g/t gold and 0.7 percent copper, sheared and altered gabbro
- Northeast – A 1.2-meter chip channel assayed 4.2 g/t Au
- Platinum and Palladium values up to 0.28g/t
- Priority Targets Identified: Heritage Minerals has three priority drill targets, each with high-grade historic drill intersections that warrant additional follow-up.
- Impressive Geophysical Interpretation: Exciting highlights from exploration work include the interpretation defining two substantial mafic-ultramafic intrusive bodies with multiple nickel-copper-PGE (platinum group elements) target areas:
- Nabish Lake Area: ~ 5 kilometers long, up to 1 kilometer wide, over 1 kilometer in depth)
- North Nabish Lake Area: ~ 2 kilometers long, 1 kilometer wide, over 1 kilometer in depth
Geophysical interpretation of the Contact Bay area along with findings from the 2023 prospecting program, suggest geological similarities to other Archean nickell-copper-PGE occurrences and deposits.

July 2025 Corporate Update Highlights
-
LIFE Offering announced with a lead order from a strategic investor totaling ~C$450,000.
-
Heritage enters the Kirkland Lake Camp via its purchase of a 75% interest in the Melba Mine, pending satisfaction of conditions precedent including technical due diligence and site visit (Figure 1). Highlights of the Melba Mine project include:
-
In 1936, Melba Gold Mines Limited drilled 20 diamond holes that intersected the Blue Vein with visible gold reported in 10 of the first 18 holes (Assessment Diamond Drilling Report, May 15, 2023).
-
In 1939, The Teck-Hughes Mines Limited channeled and took a 4-ton bulk sample over 60 feet on the Blue Vein. The channel sample gave 10.327 ounces gold per ton over 4.5 feet and the bulk sample gave 0.210 ounces gold per ton (Assessment Diamond Drilling Report, May 15, 2023).
-
2,000 tonnes of "mined material" from underground workings that are on surface and with a complementing mining lease (Assessment Diamond Drilling Report, May 15, 2023).
-
July 2025 Exploration Update Highlights
-
Drilling at Drayton-Black Lake (" DBL ") – Zone 3 Extension confirms gold mineralization in a broad quartz vein structure as initially reported in Heritage's press release dated May 15, 2025.
-
DBL – Zone 3 Extension drilling intersected multiple zones of locally anomalous gold mineralization in drill hole HML25-011 associated with a 46m wide quartz zone, including 0.95 g/t Au over 1m from 237.00m; and
-
Zone 3 Extension drill hole HML25-012 tested a different magnetic lineament at the periphery at the Lake of the Bays Batholith and the contact zone of this batholithic body. Two n arrow zones of up to 0.43 g/t Au over 1m were intersected.
-
-
Drilling at Contact Bay is completed. A total of 10 holes for 2,726m were drilled with assays pending.
-
Drill holes locally intersected narrow quartz sulfide veins and visible gold was observed on one drill hole RGN25-004 (Figure 4).
-
"We are pleased to welcome a new strategic shareholder, who aligns with Heritage's view that systematic active exploration across all properties is the key driver. We look forward to generating value to all stakeholders.
The proposed Melba Mine acquisition (pending due diligence) offers the Company exposure to the well-known mining camp (Kirkland Lake and Timmins). We look forward to applying our active systemic exploration approach to this area in short order post-acquisition.
Although assays remain pending from Zone 3 Extension at DBL and Contact Bay we appreciate the technical success and confirmation of anomalous gold in a new area never before prospected in the Sioux Lookout Area. This is the broadest quartz vein ever intersected within the Sioux Lookout District and warrants further drilling and evaluation along strike." Commented Peter Schloo, President CEO, and Director of Heritage

Melba Mine Property Description
The Melba Mine is located in Northwestern, Ontario, Canada Southwest of Matheson Ontario (Figure One) approximately seven kilometres west off the King's Highway 11, on the section of highway travelling from Kirkland Lake to Cochrane. The Melba Mine is located on the west central part of Ontario close to the Ontario and Quebec border. It's fortunate the location of the Melba Property lies within the central hub of over 100 years of mining activities, including active mining operations within the Abitibi Greenstone Belt.
The claim package includes single cell mining claims spanning 1,522.70 hectares and one mining lease.
Property Geology
The governing element of structure appears to be a contact between dioritic greenstone to the south and argillaceous greywacke to the north. The contact trends north 50-60 degrees west and dips northward. Whether the greywacke is part of a synclinal trough of sediments that are younger than the greenstone or whether it is part of a sedimentary band belonging to the greenstone series is an unknown factor at present. The greywacke is cut by dikes of porphyry that run parallel to the contact. The main gold bearing vein, usually described as the "Blue Vein", also runs parallel to the contact but lies within the sediments. It strikes north 55 degrees west and dips northward 55 degrees. It is accompanied by shearing and alteration, also by a pattern of cross fracturing that has produced faulting in the main vein and has led to the development of irregular veins in the adjacent rocks. The main vein is displaced 60 feet (18.2 metres) northward near the shaft and other displacements have been found underground. The picture resembles that of the sedimentary belt in the Beatty-Munro area. Numerous feldspar porphyry, diorite and basic syenite dikes were intersected by the drilling. Overall, a significant amount of the drill core showed alteration, some highly, while carbonate stringers were numerous and visible gold was noted in drill core.

Discussion of Results
DBL – Zone 3 Extension
The 2025 drill program at Zone 3 Extension targeted granite-hosted mineralised quartz-vein structures that were first observed in the HML Zone 3 drilling program of August 2024 (Figure 3). The recently completed program comprised 4 holes for a total 1105.5m targeting a northeast-southwest trending magnetic lineament. Drilling is considered a technical success with two ( HML25-011 and 013 ) of the four holes intersecting a well-developed quartz vein structure, including drill hole HML25-013 that intersected a 74m wide vein structure (true width unknown). Assays received for HML25-010, 011 and 012, with assays pending for HML25-013 & 014.
Assays for HML25-010 & 011 confirm locally elevated gold values in the vein structure, with the best intersection of 0.95g/t gold over 1 meter in drill hole HML25-011 (Figure 2). Although gold mineralization is low grade, significant exploration potential remains along strike of this well-defined linear mag feature, and further drilling is proposed to test this "mega-quartz vein structure".
HML25-011 Highlights:
-
0.07 g/t Au over 5.5m from 212.50m to 217.00m
-
Including 0.27g/t Au from 213.47m
-
-
0.95 g/t Au over 1m from 237.00m (within Quartz Vein Zone)

Contact Bay Rognon Mine Area
The 2025 drill program at Contact Bay is completed, targeting a mineralised quartz-vein structure that was historically mined in the early 1900's. The recently completed program comprised 10 holes for a total 2726.0m. The geology comprises metavolcanic rocks cut by granitoid batholiths and gabbroic sills and stocks. The metavolcanic rocks are locally cut by cm-scale quartz-sulphide veins and drill hole RGN25-004 intersected visible gold in a quartz-pyrite vein (Figure 4). Assays are pending for all holes.

Technical Program
Heritage Mining adheres to a strict QA/QC protocol for handling, sampling, sample transportation and analyses. Chain-of-custody protocols are designed to ensure security of samples until their delivery at the laboratory.
Sampling, Sub-sampling, and Laboratory Analysis for Heritage Mining Drayton Black Lake Project All drilling at the Drayton Black Lake project recovers NQ core. Drill core is systematically split in half using a diamond saw. A qualified geologist examines the drill core, marking intervals for sampling and indicating the cutting line. Sample lengths are typically 1.0 metre, adjusted to a minimum length of 0.5 metre as necessary to respect lithological and/or mineralogical contacts and to isolate narrow veins or structures that may contain higher-grade mineralization.
Technicians saw the core along the cutting lines determined by the geologist. One half of the core is retained as a witness sample, while the other half is submitted for analysis. Individual sample bags are securely sealed and placed into sealed bags, which are then clearly marked with their contents.
Heritage Mining submits samples for gold determination by PhotonAssay to ALS Canada Ltd. (" ALS "). ALS operates under a commercial contract with Heritage Mining.
Drill core samples are shipped to ALS for sample preparation at their facilities in Thunderbay Ontario. ALS is an ISO/IEC 17025:2017 accredited laboratory for the PhotonAssay method in addition to a variety of diverse metal determination methods.
Analytical Procedures
The ALS procedure for PhotonAssay involves lab applying preparation codes LOG-21 (sample logging via barcode), CRU-31 (fine crushing so that 70% passes through a 2mm screen) and SPL-32a (rotary splitting of a representative ~500g subsample) followed by analytical code Au-PA01 which is a non-destructive gold analysis method using high-energy X-rays with a gold detection range from 0.03 ppm to 350ppm.
After gold assays are returned, Heritage then may choose to perform multi-element assays on selected samples based on the gold results. In these cases, sample preparation codes FND-05 (locate and use remaining crushed material from Au-PA01) and PUL-32m (pulverization so that >85% passes 75 µm screen) are then applied followed by analytical code ME-MS61 (multi-element ICP-MS analysis for base metals, pathfinder elements, lithophile elements and rare earth elements).

Heritage Intersects ~46 Metre Quartz-Sulfide Vein in second Hole at Zone 3 Extension
(TheNewswire)
 | |||||||||
 |  |  |  | ||||||
Widest Vein Ever Intersected at Drayton-Black Lake
VANCOUVER, BC TheNewswire - May 15, 2025 Heritage Mining Ltd. (CSE: HML FRA:Y66) (" Heritage " or the " Company ") is pleased to announce preliminary results from its 2025 diamond drill program at Zone 3 extension, Drayton Black Lake project (" Project "). Two scout holes have been completed, and a third hole is in progress, testing a major northeast-southwest striking linear magnetic feature that is granite-hosted. The second scout hole (HML25-011) intersected the widest quartz vein ever drilled within the Project area to date, approximately 46m wide (true width ~32m, assuming the vein is near vertical). The Company has therefore modified the current drill program to further test this quartz-rich structure at deeper and shallower levels, as well as along strike.
Zone 3 Extension Drill Highlights:
-
Drilling discovered a broad zone of granite-hosted quartz vein mineralization
-
Widest quartz vein ever intersected at the Project
-
Vein width is ~46 metres (from 209.40m to 255.55m)
-
Locally visible sulphides include chalcopyrite, galena, pyrite and hematite staining
-
Drill core is being logged, split and sent for assay as soon as possible
" We are extremely pleased to have intersected such a broad vein zone in only the second scout hole at Zone 3 Extension prospect. Our geologists have observed locally significant sulphides in the quartz (galena, molybdenite, pyrite), indicating this structure acted as an important conduit for mineralized fluids. Tapping into such a broad quartz structure this early into the program underscores the significant opportunity at the Drayton-Black Lake Project for further discoveries within this established gold-rich camp. This is an excellent start to Heritage's scout drill program, and we are now redesigning the drill program to ensure this mega-structure is pierced further along strike and at a range of depths. We look forward to reporting more results from the scout program in due course." Commented Peter Schloo, President, CEO and Director of Heritage Mining.

Figure 1: HML25-011 Box 5 8 (top) to 69 (bottom), ~209.40m to ~255.55m (~46m); shows the thickest quartz sulfide vein ever intersected at Drayton-Black Lake.
Discussion of Results
The 2025 drill program at Zone 3 Extension is targeting granite-hosted mineralized quartz-vein structures that were first observed in the HML Zone 3 drilling program of August 2024. T wo scout holes (HML25-010 and -011) totalling 592m have been completed by the Company. Both drill holes tested a northeast trending linear magnetic feature that is ~2km long and up to ~200m wide hosted by the Lake of the Bays Batholith. These scout holes were drilled approximately ~1km from the nearest drill site at Zone 3 2024 drilling targets.
The first scout hole (HML25-010) intersected multiple zones of granite cut by broadly spaced, cm-scale quartz – pyrite – chalcopyrite veins. The second scout drill hole HML25-011 intersected much wider structural zones, including a massive quartz vein from 209.4m to 255.5m depth (true width ~32m), the widest quartz-vein structure ever intersected on the Project. This "Mega" quartz structure is characterized by "dirty" quartz with moderate hematite staining and locally contains disseminated and vein-hosted pyrite, chalcopyrite, sphalerite, galena and molybdenite mineralization (Figure 4). This maiden discovery of a "mega" quartz structure is highly encouraging and warrants further exploration.

Brunswick Exploration
Investor Insight
With multiple significant lithium discoveries under its belt and a proven exploration strategy that yields results, Brunswick Exploration makes a compelling investment proposition in the ever-expanding lithium space.
Overview
Brunswick Exploration (TSXV:BRW,OTCQB:BRWXF,1XQ:FF) is one of North America's few publicly traded companies aggressively pursuing grassroots lithium exploration across Canada and Greenland. The company is leveraging cutting-edge exploration technologies and systematic geological fieldwork to uncover new spodumene-bearing pegmatite discoveries in underexplored districts.
Brunswick has staked and is actively exploring large-scale pegmatite fields in Quebec and both western and eastern Greenland. Its multi-regional strategy is designed to fast-track discoveries of high-grade lithium deposits to meet rising global demand driven by the energy transition.
Brunswick’s exploration process begins with comprehensive data compilation and geological analysis to pinpoint promising target areas. Its experienced field teams then deploy traditional prospecting techniques—including bedrock mapping, sampling, and geophysical surveys—to validate targets on the ground. This hands-on approach has led to multiple new lithium discoveries and remains central to the company’s value creation strategy.
The company has launched an aggressive, regional-scale prospecting and mapping campaign across its extensive Greenland portfolio which will run for six weeks, supported by four field crews and two helicopters. The initial phase will see one team conducting detailed mapping and sampling around the Ivisaartoq spodumene discovery and surrounding areas. A second team will cover the expanded Nuuk and Paamiut licenses, including follow-up at the historical spodumene showing at Paamiut.
Starting in July 2025, fieldwork will pivot based on June results, with one crew continuing follow-up at Nuuk and Paamiut, and another moving to Disko Bay and Uummannaq. Findings will guide advanced exploration in August–September, including first-pass work at the newly acquired Hinksland project.
In Quebec, Brunswick Exploration has prioritized three key lithium projects in the Eeyou Istchee–James Bay region: Mirage, Anatacau, and PLEX with active drilling underway at Mirage following 2023 grassroots discoveries.
In 2024, the company made Greenland’s first lithium-bearing spodumene pegmatite discovery at the Ivisaartoq field under its Nuuk license—an area characterized by ancient Mesoarchean geology. Brunswick is now expanding its land position in both western and eastern Greenland to build on this breakthrough. In 2025, the company reported it had submitted license applications covering 20,785 hectares at Paamiut that include multiple metavolcanic amphibolite belts and nine mapped pegmatites 500–900 m in strike length, with approval pending. Brunswick had also applied for a 17,800-hectare Hinksland license in eastern Greenland containing over 50 mapped and interpreted pegmatite outcrops, including nine that are between 500 m and roughly 10,000 m in strike length, likewise awaiting government sign-off.
The exploration team is led by Executive Chairman Robert Wares, a renowned geologist and co-founder of Osisko Mining. Wares played a pivotal role in discovering the Canadian Malartic gold deposit, which became one of Canada’s largest gold producers. His leadership and exploration success provide strong technical guidance for Brunswick’s operations.

The Mirage Project consists of 427 claims covering 21,230 hectares (including both staked and optioned claims), situated approximately 40 km south of the Trans-Taiga Highway in Quebec’s James Bay region. The project was initially staked following insights from a geologist who explored the area for gold over two decades ago and documented numerous angular pegmatitic glacial boulders containing large, well-defined spodumene crystals, including one boulder measuring 8 x 4 x 3 meters.
In fall 2023, Brunswick Exploration uncovered multiple high-grade spodumene outcrops along a 2.5-km trend, alongside a distinct 3 km boulder train with different mineralogical characteristics, suggesting the presence of multiple lithium-bearing sources within the project area.
The company intersected 37 m at 1.14 percent Li₂O in hole MR-24-87 at the MR-3 dyke; 36 m at 1.51 percent Li₂O in hole MR-24-102 within the Stacked Dyke area where the same hole also cut thirteen additional spodumene-bearing dykes and 28 m at 1.32 percent Li₂O in hole MR-24-101 at the MR-6 dyke, together extending the combined MR-3–MR-6–Stacked Dyke swarm to more than 1 km by 450 m. In the past drillings, Brunswick intercepted 1.55 percent and 1.64 percent Li₂O at 93.45 m and 69.3 m respectively at the MR-6 dyke The project continues to show excellent continuity and scale, with stacked dykes and new zones being delineated through ongoing drilling.
The winter 2025 drill program covering over 5,000 meters is designed to test new extensions to MR-3, MR-4, and MR-6 dykes, as well as additional targets within the broader Central Zone. Mirage is quickly emerging as a potential high-grade, large-tonnage lithium system.
Spodumene crystals at Mirage are massive and white to pale grey, both at the surface and in the core.
In 2025, BRW has continued to advance Mirage through additional drilling and metallurgical testing. The winter drill program intersected 36 meters at 1.51percent Li2O in the Stacked Dyke area and 28 meters at 1.32 percent Li2O at the MR-6 dyke, significantly extending these pegmatites along strike. This drilling confirms that the MR-3, MR-6 and Stacked Dyke systems form a major spodumene-bearing pegmatite swarm now traced over ~1,000 by 450 meters and open in multiple directions. Phase 1 metallurgical results indicate the potential for a dense media separation (DMS)-only flowsheet (no flotation required), capable of producing a clean spodumene concentrate grading ~5.5–5.7 percent Li2O with up to 76 percent recovery and low impurities.
PLEX Project
The company is also advancing the early-stage Poste Lemoyne Extension (PLEX) project, located along the La Grande shear zone approximately 75 km west of Patriot Battery Metals’ Corvette project. PLEX consists of 375 claims covering 19,175 hectares and remains a target for future prospecting campaigns.
Anatacau
Comprising the Anatacau Main and Anatacau West projects, these assets are under an option agreement with Osisko GP, a subsidiary of Osisko Development, under which Brunswick Exploration can earn a 90 percent interest in the projects. The Anatacau property is located just east of Rio Tinto (NYSE:RIO) recently acquired James Bay Lithium deposit (previously known as the Cyr deposit), previously owned by Arcadium (NYSE:ALTM) which has a total mineral resource of 110.2 million tons (Mt) at 1.30 percent lithium oxide and a total ore reserve of 37.3 Mt at 1.27 percent lithium oxide.
BRW completed a maiden drill program at the Anatacau West property totalling 3,712 meters. 17 of the 18 drilled holes intersected spodumene mineralization that generated up to 26.5 metres at 1.51 percent Li2O.
In the summer of 2023, Brunswick discovered a significant lithium pegmatite outcrop, measuring at least 100 meters long by 15 meters wide known as the Anais showing in Anatacau Main. The outcrop is within a larger cluster of pegmatite dykes all of which contain high-grade lithium mineralization.
This discovery is located 22 km east of Anatacau West and Rio’s James Bay project along a large-scale E-W deformation corridor which is host to the known lithium-bearing pegmatite dykes in the region.
Greenland
Brunswick Exploration is now one of Greenland’s largest mineral license holders and the only company actively exploring for lithium in the country, capitalizing on a clear first-mover advantage. With supportive regulations, highly prospective geology, and excellent outcrop exposure, 2025 is set to be a breakthrough year as the company launches a major lithium exploration campaign.
A six-week regional program begins in June, with four field crews and two helicopters deployed across Brunswick’s vast land package. One team will focus on the Ivisaartoq spodumene discovery, while another targets the Nuuk and Paamiut licenses. In July, follow-up work will continue at Nuuk and Paamiut, while a second team begins prospecting at the Disko Bay and Uummannaq properties.
Initial results will guide advanced exploration phases in August and September across high-priority targets.
2025 Paamiut license area
Brunswick Exploration has applied for new licenses covering 20,785 hectares, approximately 90 to 130 km northeast of Paamiut, a coastal town about 260 km south of Nuuk. The area lies within the Bjornesund tectonic block of the North Atlantic Craton, a geologically favorable region comprising tonalitic and granodioritic orthogneiss and Mesoarchean metavolcanic amphibolite belts.The newly staked ground includes multiple amphibolite belts up to 1.5 km wide and 15 km long, along with nine mapped and interpreted pegmatite targets ranging from 500 to 900 meters in strike length. License applications have been submitted and are currently pending final government approval
Nuuk Expansion
Brunswick Exploration’s Nuuk holdings include the Ivisaartoq spodumene discovery within the Ivisaartoq belt. The company has applied to stake the adjacent Ujarassuit amphibolite belt, which is up to 1 km wide and 40 km long. Additional claims have been secured within the Fiskefjord Complex, located 95 km north of Nuuk and 75 km southeast of Maniitsoq, covering amphibolite belts up to 4.5 km wide and 20 km long. The newly acquired and applied-for claims span 33,138 hectares and host hundreds of mapped and interpreted pegmatite outcrops, including six targets with strike lengths between 500 and 2,000 m.
Disko Bay
The Disko Bay licenses are located roughly 30 to 80 kms from the coastal city of Ilulissat, which is the third largest city in Greenland. The licenses are near multiple seaports and container terminals, including Ilulissat. The area is situated within the Aasiaat domain, part of the Paleoproterozoic Nagssugtoqidian Orogen, sandwiched to the south by the Archean North Atlantic Craton and to the north by the Archean Rae Craton. The Orogen extends west into the Trans-Hudson orogeny of Canada that continues to the lithium deposits near Snow Lake Manitoba and the Black Hills of South Dakota.
Multiple amphibolite and metasedimentary belts were acquired with some belts being over 20 km in strike length. The new claims have hundreds of mapped and interpreted pegmatite targets with a total license area of 49,639 hectares.
Uummannaq
The licenses are located roughly 70 km from the coastal city of Uummannaq, about 80 km north of Ilulissat. Uummannaq has a population of about 1,660, an airport and a ferry terminal as well as a nearby container terminal. The area is located within the Archean Rae Craton that is intermixed with the Paleoproterozoic Rinkian fold-thrust belt, both of which are in contact with the Paleoproterozoic Nagssugtoqidian Orogen to the south.
The new license contains multiple amphibolite and metasedimentary belts with dozens of mapped and interpreted pegmatites with a total license area of 9,770 hectares.
