FE Battery Metals Corp. Completes Soil Geochemical Survey and Identifies New Target Areas at the Augustus Property in Quebec

VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / December 12, 2023 / FE Battery Metals Corp. (CSE:FE)(OTCQB:FEMFF)(WKN:A2JC89) ("FE" or the "Company) is pleased to announce that it has received assay results from a large soil geochemistry program at its Augustus Lithium Property in Quebec, Canada. Our sampling program ran from August 2023 to October 2023 with the aim of locating new lithium exploration targets outside of the main Augustus prospect within the Company's large claim holdings in this active region. A total of 995 samples were collected from grid sampling on six select areas (Grids A-F) located south of the main known mineralization. Anomalous lithium values returned from Grids C, D, E and F indicate great potential for new LCT (lithium-cesium-tantalum) pegmatite target areas for further exploration.

Assay Highlights

• Soil survey Grid C stands out well with a NW-SE trending lithium (Li) anomaly in the eastern part of the grid (Figure 1). The revealed trend is still open to the southeast and possesses coincident anomalous values of cesium (Cs), niobium (Nb) and tantalum (Ta). The results of Grid C occur far to the south of the main Augustus pegmatites but show a trend roughly parallel to Augustus and the NAL pegmatites. This area has been selected to be a priority target for FE for the discovery of a new LCT type pegmatite zone.
• Soil survey Grid D uncovered another priority target with a roughly E-W zone of strong lithium values which appears to curve to a N-S orientation within the western portion of the sample grid (Figure 2). The anomalous lithium trend is open both to the north and south and contains coincident anomalous values of Cs, Nb and Ta.
• Soil survey Grid F covered a large zone of continuous anomalous lithium values that occur roughly over 100 to 300 meters in width and 1 kilometer south to north in the eastern half of the sampled grid (Figure 3). Anomalous niobium (Nb) and rubidium (Rb) occur with the lithium. FE plans to return to this area with the intent of extending Grid F to test if the Li, Nb and Rb anomaly continuous further north as the grid terminated in high values.
• Soil survey Grid E returned elevated lithium values all over the grid except for a low-grade area in the eastern part of the grid.
• Soil grids A and B returned isolated anomalous lithium values but contained no definite trend.
