Drill Permit Received For Lida Copper-Silver Project

VANCOUVER - T2 Metals Corp. announced granting of a permit to commence drilling at the Lida copper-silver project on the Walker Lane Belt in Esmeralda County, Nevada. Permission was granted by the Bureau of Land Management (Tonopah office) and allows for the construction of five drill sites. The Company is now assessing drilling contracts for a program to begin as soon as possible. The Lida project is characterized by a broad area of high-grade copper oxide/carbonate mineralization typically exposed within historic workings, that is associated with three buried high chargeability IP anomalies, each approximately 500m in length. Geological setting and IP character suggests Lida has highest potential for skarn-style mineralization developed within the carbonate-rich Poleta Formation.

In 57 samples taken from dump and pit material, copper ranged from 26.20% Cu to 12 ppm Cu averaging 1.80% Cu. Twenty samples exceeded 1% Cu including 14 that exceeded 2% Cu. Three large discrete upright/steeply dipping chargeability anomalies of high IP were discovered in a survey completed by T2 during Q2 2022. The anomalies have a chargeability exceeding >40mV/V in a background of <10mV/V. Values above 10mV/V are typically considered anomalous. While there is often a direct correlation between chargeability and sulphide content, it may not correlate to economic mineralization. There is no indication from exploration records or field observations that the three IP targets have been previously drill tested.

"It is exciting and rewarding to take a project like Lida from project generation and staking through surface sampling, mapping and then geophysics, to a fully permitted drill ready target," said Mark Saxon, President and CEO. "We look forward to getting the rig turning at this high potential copper project in a very active exploration and mining district. The southern Walker Lane sees Nevada Sunrise Metals Corp drilling for lithium immediately south of our Lida claims, and AngloGold Ashanti having recently completed a US$150m acquisition from Coeur Mining."
