Phase-5 Drill Program To Begin Soon On Solar Lithium Project

VANCOUVER - Cruz Battery Metals Corp. is currently formulating a phase-5 drill program to begin shortly on the 8,135-acre Solar Lithium Project in Nevada. The Company has discovered lithium in all 14 completed drill holes throughout the first 4 phases of drilling.

Frank Bain, Project Geologist, said, "The phase-4 drill program confirmed that the mineralization is open in all directions. The Phase-5 drill holes have been permitted and will test for lithium mineralization both North, West and South of the Phase-4 drill sites. Drilling is expected to recommence shortly."

Jim Nelson, President of Cruz Battery Metals stated, "The upcoming phase-5 drill program will be Cruz's third drill program of the 2023 calendar year on the Solar lithium project. Management is pleased that the phase-4 drill program expanded the known lithium footprint on this project and we now look to build upon this recent success by starting our phase-5 drill program shortly. Cruz is one of the largest landholders in the Big Smoky Valley of Nevada, directly bordering American Lithium and we've still only explored a small fraction of the property. Cruz is well-funded, and we anticipate generating our maiden resource estimate immediately following the completion of the phase-5 drill program on the 8,135-acre Solar Lithium Project. The remainder of 2023 will be very active as we enter a period of increased news flow with several potential catalysts ahead."
