Phase 2 Drilling Program At The Gemini Lithium Project

VANCOUVER - Nevada Sunrise Metals Corp. reported that the Phase 2 drilling program is underway at the Gemini Lithium Project located in the Lida Valley basin in Esmeralda County, Nevada. The first drill hole of the program is GEM22-03, which is planned to reach a minimum depth of 1,500 feet (457 meters). Up to six boreholes are planned in Phase 2 for an estimated total of 8,000 feet (2,439 meters) of drilling. The exploration goals for the Phase 2 program are: (1) test lithium-bearing brine and sediments at greater depths than previous boreholes GEM22-01 and GEM22-02, and (2) determine the lateral extent of lithium-mineralized brine and sediments identified in the previous Gemini drill holes. Drill hole locations may be amended or revised during the Phase 2 program as results warrant.

Gemini consists of 582 unpatented placer and lode claims located in the western Lida Valley, Esmeralda County, approximately 6 miles (10 kilometers) east of the town of Lida, Nevada. In the spring of 2022, Nevada Sunrise expanded the size of the Project to a land position covering approximately 5,700 acres (2,300 hectares). Gemini is situated adjacent to the Gold Point Solar Energy Zone, a BLM land reserve set aside for solar and wind power generation projects until 2033.
