Medaro Mining (MEDA-Cse) Commences Drilling at Superb Lake Lithium Property with JV Partner

August 10th 2023 - NR

Medaro Mining is pleased to announce that Rock Edge Resources has contracted Ombabika Group Inc. (100% First Nations owned) to drill 4 holes along strike of Dyke #1 (discovery outcrop) at its recently optioned Superb Lake Property, situated in northwestern Ontario. Rock Edge Resources Inc. has an option to earn a 70% interest in the Superb Lake lithium project from Medaro. (see PR dated Nov. 29, 2022).


The planned drill program is aimed to test the orientation and thickness of Dyke #1. Due to slight alteration and deformation of the dyke, seen in the 2022 exploration program, it is difficult to estimate the true strike and dip on the surface. The 4 holes will provide the company with enough detail to develop a 3D orientation of the dyke and any parallel zones. This will be used to develop a full-scale drill program and provide information regarding lithium mineralization, capturing both contacts, which was not achieved in 2022. Due to permitting constraints, the contractor is using a lightweight ATV portable JKS-15 drill to produce IAW size core 26mm.

Highlights:

Drill hole SPB-23-01 (Az165/ Dip -45) intersected 7.1 meters of spodumene-albite pegmatite. Visual spodumene estimate is 12% for the entire interval including 2.1 meters of 20% coarse-grained spodumene. This hole is located 60m inland from the initial discovery point on Superb Lake.

Hole SPB-23-02 (Az165/ Dip -70) failed to intersect pegmatite, this hole was pulled back to intersect the same cross-section at 20m deeper than hole SPB-23-01. Most likely the orientation of the dyke is more vertical than initially mapped.

Hole SPB-23-03 (Dip 89) is currently being drilling, this target is a sub-vertical hole to define hanging-wall contact and orientation of the dyke as our second hole did not intersect the dyke. This hole will also give us insight into the alteration of spodumene at depth and a vertical profile of spodumene mineralization (aimed at 30-40m depth) as minor spodumene alteration was noted on surface in 2022.

SPB-23-04: planned another 60-meter-long strike, based on a recent discovery at the end of July 2023, a new parallel zone 10m southeast (3-4meters wide) was identified by the ground crew.

The fieldwork in preparation for drilling helped to discover a 3-4m wide parallel dyke which was found exposed after a large tree fell over in a windstorm. Prospectors examined the dyke and noted a spodumene crystal on surface. The ground crew will channel sample the dyke and confirm spodumene percentage. Based on this information, Hole SPB-23-04 will be extended past Dyke #1 to intersect Dyke #2 and test the orientation and mineralization at depth.

QA/QC
All intersections reported are based on drilled widths and have not been converted to the true width. The drill core is being logged and sampled at the core shack using a rock saw at Pleson Geoscience core shack located in Nipigon, ON. The samples will be bagged and tagged using best practices and will be delivered to an independent Canadian certified laboratory for sample preparation and analysis for lithium and other elements of interest.

About the Superb Lake Property
The Superb Lake Property encompasses approximately 2,378 hectares in the O’ Sullivan Lake / Maun Lake Area of the Thunder Bay Mining District of Northwestern Ontario, Canada. Geologically, the property is situated in the eastern part of Wabigoon Subprovince of the Superior Geological Province. The Superb Lake area has historical exploration carried out since the 1950s with the discovery of lithium along the shores of Superb Lake. The discovery outcrop is reported to have a minimum outcrop exposed length of 16 m, while its exposed width varies from 2.5 m to a maximum of 3.7 m. In 2020, four samples collected from a spodumene rich part of the dyke returned 1.77 % to 4.03% Li2O.
