Green Battery Minerals inc. (the "Company") (TSXV:GEM), (FSE:BK2P), (WKN:A2QENP), (OTC:GBMIF) is pleased to announce that it has mobilized a drill contractor to commence additional drilling on Zone 6 of it’s 100% owned Berkwood Graphite Project. The program is intended to further define the extent and grade of the Zone 6 graphite discovery and to drill into the outcrops that were exposed in our last mapping program done in July of this year.  

The 20-hole 2,000 m 2022 drill program has been designed based on the results of surface exposures of graphite identified during the previous July mapping program (see news release date August 5, 2022). Semi continuous horizons of graphite were identified along the trend illustrated in Figure 1 and Figure 2 and appear to define a recumbent fold structure. Drilling is to initially focus on outcropping areas of graphite. At each of the principal outcrop locations a number of holes will be advanced and will attempt to demonstrate down dip and along-strike continuity. Drilling will commence along 400m of continuous graphite exposure along the south-dipping southern limb of the antiform between Areas 1 – 3 outcrops (Figure 1). Where access is possible, targeted holes will be advanced in the nose of the antiform, where surface mapping has identified fault offset surface continuity into the Area 4 outcrops. Several targeted holes have also been specifically designed to establish the near surface true thickness of the outcropping graphite.

Drilling is expected to commence before the end of August 2022 and is expected to last for 4 to 6 weeks with field operations based out of Manic 5, Quebec. The proposed budget has been approved in the amount of CAD$1,000,000.

The Company has previously completed a drill program on Zone 6 for a total of 970 meters in 12 drill holes. Six of the twelve drill locations were drilled into outcrops and intersected significant graphite enrichment (see news release date May 6, 2022).

Tom Yingling, President and CEO of Green Battery states “It's not every day you get to drill into high grade anything and here we are about to drill directly into 4 separate graphite outcrops along a defined 400m strike length with strong indications of more. Needless to say, we are excited to test these outcrops at depth under much fairer conditions than those we encountered last winter.”

About the Berkwood Graphite Project

The Berkwood Graphite Project is located within the jurisdiction of Quebec, in the Manicouagan Regional County Municipality, three hours driving time from the city of Baie-Comeau. Easy access is provided via a major secondary road and numerous tertiary and forest roads that traverse the property.

The Zone 1 deposit lies 8 km southwest of Mason Graphite’s deposit which is the subject of a current feasibility study. The Company believes its Zone 1 deposit and that of Mason share many similar geological characteristics with the Zone 1 deposit being one of the highest-grade graphite deposits in the world.

The current mineral resource at the Lac Gueret South Graphite Project includes in-pit constrained resource totalling 1,755,300 tonnes of indicated resources at 17.00 % Cgr and 1,526,400 tonnes in inferred resources at 16.39 % Cgr.
