Global Energy Metals Mobilizes Field Crew to Ground Truth New Cobalt, Copper, Nickel Targets at the Lovelock and Treasure Box Projects

13.09.2022  |  The Newswire
Vancouver, Sept. 13, 2022 - Global Energy Metals Corp. (TSXV:GEMC) | (OTC:GBLEF) | (FSE:5GE1) ("Global Energy Metals", the "Company" and/or "GEMC"), a company involved in investment exposure to the battery metals supply chain, is pleased to provide an update on exploration plans for its Lovelock and Treasure Box projects (the "Projects") in the Stillwater Range in Nevada. Following recent identification of new cobalt, copper and nickel targets by Earthlabs Inc., formerly GoldSpot Discoveries Corp. (TSX-V:SPOT | OTCQX:SPOFF) ("Earthlabs") the Company has engaged Dahrouge Geological Consulting USA Ltd. ("Dahrouge Geological") for mineral exploration activities at the Projects. Dahrouge Geological is now on site and carrying out a number of exploration initiatives to ground truth the Earthlabs' findings and further define the scale and scope of the prospective Nevada-based battery metals projects.

Highlights:

  • Earthlabs was engaged to apply their proprietary machine learning applications ("AI") and geoscience expertise to assist the Company in expanding discoveries and identifying new high-priority target areas;

  • A total of 30 exploration targets have been identified, 15 on the Lovelock Project and 15 targets identified on the Treasure Box Project;

  • In preparation for field work, Earthlabs provided a map of probable target zones, resulting from the AI analysis allowing for time-and cost-efficient field exploration; and

  • Dahrouge Geological has been engaged and is on site conducting a field program to field check the exploration target areas presented to help confirm lithologies validate and prioritize the targets generated by Earthlabs.

  • The field program is planned to "ground truth" the results of the above studies prior to selecting drilling targets.

Mitchell Smith President and Chief Executive officer stated:

"The exploration work completed to date has identified multiple high priority targets exhibiting cobalt, nickel and copper mineralization. The Dahrouge Geological team have a tremendous track record of discovery and we welcome their involvement in leading this field work at our Nevada projects. The objective of this current program is to locate and map the geology of the area overlying targets generated by Earthlabs' proprietary AI technology improving drilling efficiency and chance of success."

The mapping program is planned to cover the two target areas to better understand the geology, structural trends, and mineralization controls within these high priority areas. This work will focus on mapping lithology, alterations, and mineral associations and assess the potential of a larger mineralized system. This work will also support and potentially modify the proposed drill program for the Treasure Box project as announced previously.

About Lovelock

Lovelock currently consists of 81 unpatented lode claims in the Cottonwood Canyon area of the Stillwater Range totaling approximately 1,586 acres (642 hectares). It was discovered by George Lovelock and Charles Bell about 1880. According to U.S. Government annual reports, the Lovelock Mine saw limited production of nickel, copper and cobalt beginning in 1883. The primary cobalt mineral was identified as "cobaltite". The general average of the 200 tons shipped in 1886 averaged 14 percent cobalt and 12 percent nickel. The mine operated from 1883 to 1890 to the 100 foot level, reporting 500 tons of cobalt and nickel mineralized material shipped to England for processing. After intermittent production, an English company attempted smelting on site in 1898 but little or no production was made (Source: "Mineral Resources of the United States for 1885", 1886). No further production from the Lovelock Mine is known for well over a century providing GEMC an excellent opportunity to unlock the potential value of the deposit through exploration work. In a recent drill program at Lovelock by GEMC, elevated values of cobalt, nickel and copper were intercepted in three of the holes which targeted possible mineralization beneath the historical mine workings.

About Treasure Box

Treasure Box hosts mine workings from limited copper production, which occurred until early into the 20th century. A historical diamond drill hole (circa 1910) drilled at the Treasure Box by the Boyer-Nevada Copper Company reportedly intersected 1.52% copper over 85 feet (25.9 metres) with mineralization beginning at surface. A reverse circulation hole drilled on the Treasure Box by Utah International in 1976 returned 1.55% copper over 40 feet (12.2 metres) from a depth of 85 to 125 feet (25.9 to 38.1 metres), and the hole was stopped in chalcopyrite mineralization. The core Treasure Box claims were held continuously for over 20 years by a private company but were relinquished in September 2017, leading to their acquisition by Nevada Sunrise. GEMC received approval from the US Bureau of Land Management (the "BLM") for a proposed exploration and drill plan at the Treasure Box project that includes up to thirteen (13) vertical drill holes from thirteen (13) different locations. Planned drill hole lengths range from 350 feet (107 metres) to 500 feet (152 metres). Total drilling is anticipated to be 5,850 feet (1,784 meters), with a minimum drilling length of three (3) drill holes totaling 1,350 feet (412 metres). Depending on findings, individual drill hole lengths could be extended by 30 to 50 feet (10 to 15 metres) as determined by the company's on-site representative. The targeted prospects have been identified by Global Energy Metals through a systematic exploration program over the past several months that has included an airborne magnetic survey, reinterpretation of historical Induced Polarization (IP) data, detailed mapping and desktop review of historical data including past drilling.
