ValOre Reports High-Grade PGE Trado® Auger and Rock Assay Results from Synform Target and Provides Exploration Update for the Pedra Branca Project, Brazil

Valore Metals Corp. ("ValOre"; TSX ‐ V: VO; OTCQB: KVLQF; Frankfurt: KEQ0, "the Company") today provided an exploration update, including Trado ® auger and rock assay results from the Synform target ("Synform") at ValOre's 100%-owned Pedra Branca Platinum Group Elements ("PGE", "2PGE+Au") Project ("Pedra Branca") in northeastern Brazil.

"ValOre's exploration team continues to advance the pipeline targets at the Pedra Branca Project through targeted geochemical sampling, and subsequent Trado ® augering and trenching," stated ValOre's VP of Exploration, Colin Smith. "ValOre's methodology has advanced four priority targets to a drill-ready stage: Galante, Tróia, Nambi and Ipueiras. Exploration is ongoing at several additional targets along the prospective mafic-ultramafic Troia Unit, including Synform, an extension to Massapê, Pitombeiras and Talhado, with partial assays reported herein."

  • 14.95 g/t 2PGE+Au – Rock sample 103556 at Synform Target;

Exploration Update Summary

A total of 1,049 soil samples and 195 rock samples have been collected to date in 2023, the results of which have guided follow-up Trado ® augering and trenching programs. ValOre crews have completed 268 metres of Trado ® augering in 67 holes, with 207 metres of ultramafics intercepted and 284 samples submitted for assay. Trenching totals include 219 metres excavated in 2 trenches, with 183 metres of ultramafics exposed and 219 samples submitted for assay.

Table 1 below highlights exploration totals up to date in Q1 2023. Figure 1 displays the Pedra Branca property map with the location of the NI 43-101 resource zones, those targets at a drill-ready stage, and the main pipeline targets with ongoing activities throughout Q4 2022 and Q1 2023.
