Jourdan Resources Inc. (TSXV: JOR; OTCQB: JORFF) (" Jourdan " or the " Company ") is pleased to announce that all of its twelve (12) drill holes of its 2022 winter drilling campaign have intersected the new spodumene-bearing pegmatite swarm on its Vallée property at a previously underexplored eastern extension, which had not been exposed by the North American Lithium mine to the west of Vallée (see Fig. 1). For more information on Jourdan's drill program, please see the Company's press release dated March 7, 2022, which is available under the Company's SEDAR profile at www.sedar.com.
As set out in a press release dated March 24, 2022, Jourdan has expanded its 2022 winter drilling campaign by adding another already permitted line of eight drillholes of 200m each for a total of an additional 1,600m to the 1,608m already completed in 2022, extending the lines 3, 4 and 5 to the north, south, and east (see Fig. 1).

The Company's 3,200m diamond drilling program is intended to follow up on the results of a bulk sample collected in 2018 and the fence line drilled in 2011 and 2021 along the western side of the Company's Vallée property, which borders the North American Lithium mine. This drilling campaign is roughly laid out on a 100m x 100m grid and aims at completing the northern extension of the drilled fence line previously started during Q3 2021. The drilling program is anticipated to substantially extend the known deposit at the Company's Vallée property eastwards. Since February 2022, 12 holes of approximately 200m depth have been drilled, with four holes remaining, each aimed at the pegmatite swarm identified by the trenching of the bulk sample collected on the Vallée property in 2018. The assay results from the bulk sample revealed high Li 2 O grades (for more information, please see the Company's press release dated April 29, 2021, which is available under the Company's SEDAR profile at www.sedar.com), which have encouraged the Company to continue exploration and exploratory drilling along the strike and depth extents of its Vallée property.
Jourdan's Executive Chairman, Dr. Andreas Rompel, stated, "We are very pleased that these new intersections confirm the eastern extension of the pegmatite swarm. It encourages us to continue our drilling program eastwards and thereby hopefully enlarge the known deposit size. We are keenly looking forward to receiving our first preliminary mineral resource estimate, for which we engaged Red Pennant Communications Corp. last month."
