Tempus Geological Visits to Manitoba Lithium Projects

Perth, October 2, 2023 - Tempus Resources Ltd. (ASX: TMR) (TSXV: TMRR) (OTC Pink: TMRFF) ("Tempus" or the "Company") is pleased to report on the recent site visit to the White Rabbit and Cormorant lithium exploration projects in central Manitoba.

Highlights

White Rabbit Geological Visit: Confirmation of mapped pegmatites and identification of new pegmatite occurrences where physical samples were collected; currently awaiting assay results;

Cormorant Drill Core Visit: Approximately 74.81m of pegmatite mineralisation observed across a 89.79m section of the core. Pegmatite mineralisation described as white, light green and pink containing a crystalline matrix;

Successful geological visits to both Cormorant and White Rabbit warrant more extensive site visits planned for early October;

Upcoming site visits will provide more detailed rock chip sampling and geological mapping at White Rabbit whilst seeking to gain access to other historic drill core with additional pegmatite intercepts at Cormorant

Tempus geologists visited the White Rabbit and Cormorant lithium exploration projects from 17-22 September 2023 to further due diligence investigations. Based on the success of those visits, a follow-up visit to White Rabbit is now planned for early October to complete additional rock sampling and mapping.

Tempus Resources President and CEO, Jason Bahnsen, commented, "Our geological team completed initial site visits to the White Rabbit and Cormorant lithium projects and were able to verify the presence of outcropping pegmatite dykes at White Rabbit and inspected the drill core for DH180-2 from the Cormorant Project that is stored in the Manitoba Geological Survey where wide zones of pegmatite up to 33 metres in width were observed. The team is preparing for a second visit to the White Rabbit project site during early October to complete more detailed rock sampling and mapping."

White Rabbit Lithium Project

The White Rabbit Project, with a total claim area of approximately 70 km², is located adjacent to major railway and power infrastructure with year around access. The project is located approximately 40 km north of the Cross Lake community and approximately 100 km southeast of the mining centre of Thompson, Manitoba.

There is over 15 km of greenstone belt geology within the 70 km² claim boundary. Historic exploration at White Rabbit is limited to surface mapping completed by Manitoba Geological Survey (MGS). The outcrop mapping survey indicates pegmatite dyke outcrops with strike lengths up to 2.5 km and widths up to 600 metres. The outcrop mapping is based on historic information and has not been verified by Tempus. Refer to Appendix 1, Table 1a for detailed locations and dimensions of outcropping pegmatite dykes.

Tempus geologists visited the White Rabbit project to verify access and the location of outcropping pegmatite dykes noted in the historic MGS mapping.

This initial site visit was limited to a few hours but Tempus geologists verified the presence of outcropping pegmatite dykes along the shores of White Rabbit Lake. Three chip samples were taken of pegmatite outcrops at locations shown in Figure 2 (See Appendix 1 Table 1b for details of the rock sample locations). The samples have been sent for assay and the results will be reported when available.

Tempus is planning a second site trip to White Rabbit Project during the week of October 8, 2023 to complete detailed mapping and sampling of the pegmatite dyke outcrops.

Cormorant Project

The Cormorant Project, with total claim area of approximately 187 km², is located adjacent to major railway and power infrastructure with year around access. The town of The Pas, with a population of approximately 5,000 people, is 40 km to the southwest and is a regional centre for workforce plus construction, mining and engineering services.

Tempus geologists visited the Cormorant Project to establish access and review the geology.

The project has been subject to seven historical exploration drilling campaigns between 1975 and 2006. All historic drilling on the project was focussed on the identification of base metals with no assays completed for lithium and associated elements that were focussed on the discovery of base metals (no assays for lithium). Twenty historic core drill holes have been identified on the current Cormorant Project license areas. The location of the historic drill holes is shown in Figure 3 and also refer to Appendix 1 - Table 1c for additional drill collar data.

Tempus has obtained the drill logs for six of the historic drill holes which indicate the presence of intersections of pegmatite mineralisation up to 33 metres in thickness (See Figure 4). See Appendix 1, Table 2 for a summary of the drill logs and observed pegmatite intersections.

Tempus geologists inspected the core for Cormorant drill hole 180-02 that is stored in the MGS drill core library at The Pas, Manitoba. Drill-hole 180-02 was completed by Manitoba Minerals Inc in 1979, targeting base metals discovery (size BQ 36.5mm diameter). No assays for lithium or associated elements were completed on the historic drill core from the Cormorant Project.

Tempus geologists observed three wide intersections (up to 32.73 metres) of pegmatite in the core for drill hole 180-2. In total there is approximately 74.81 metres of pegmatite in the drill core over the three intersections between a depth of 89.79 metres and 184.66 metres. The intersected pegmatite was described as white, light green and pink containing quartz, k-feldspar, biotite and muscovite.

Tempus is making arrangements with MGS to take sample of drill core 108-02 for assay. Tempus is also working on obtaining additional drill logs and identifying the storage location of further drill core from the Cormorant Project.

Appendix 2: The following tables are provided to ensure compliance with the JORC Code (2012) requirements for the reporting of Exploration Results for the Cormorant - White Rabbit Lithium Projects

Section 1: Sampling Techniques and Data
(Criteria in this section apply to all succeeding sections.)

Criteria	JORC Code explanation	Commentary
Sampling techniques	Nature and quality of sampling (eg cut channels, random chips, or specific specialised industry standard measurement tools appropriate to the minerals under investigation, such as down hole gamma sondes, or handheld XRF instruments, etc). These examples should not be taken as limiting the broad meaning of sampling. Include reference to measures taken to ensure sample representivity and the appropriate calibration of any measurement tools or systems used. Aspects of the determination of mineralisation that are Material to the Public Report. In cases where 'industry standard' work has been done this would be relatively simple (eg 'reverse circulation drilling was used to obtain 1 m samples from which 3 kg was pulverised to produce a 30 g charge for fire assay'). In other cases more explanation may be required, such as where there is coarse gold that has inherent sampling problems. Unusual commodities or mineralisation types (eg submarine nodules) may warrant disclosure of detailed information.	HQ (63.5 mm) NQ (47.6 mm) and BQ (36.5 mm) sized diamond core using standard equipment. Mineralised and potentially mineralised zones, comprising pegmatite dikes that contains spodumene and/or petalite minerals, normally spodumene only Samples were half core. Typical core samples are 1 to 2m in length. Standard industry procedure is as follows: Each sample was crushed to better than 70% - 2 mm and a 1 kg split was pulverized to better than 85% passing 75 μm. All samples were analysed using SRC procedure code ICP1 using a four-acid digestion producing both total and partial digestions ICP analysis. Lithium results were reported in ppm elemental lithium and converted to Li2O using a 2.153 conversion factor
Drilling techniques	Drill type (eg core, reverse circulation, open-hole hammer, rotary air blast, auger, Bangka, sonic, etc) and details (eg core diameter, triple or standard tube, depth of diamond tails, face-sampling bit or other type, whether core is oriented and if so, by what method, etc).	Diamond Drilling from surface (HQ, NQ and BQ sizes)
Drill sample recovery	Method of recording and assessing core and chip sample recoveries and results assessed. Measures taken to maximise sample recovery and ensure representative nature of the samples. Whether a relationship exists between sample recovery and grade and whether sample bias may have occurred due to preferential loss/gain of fine/coarse material.	No information available on historic drilling recovery No relationship has yet been noted between recovery and grade and no sample bias was noted to have occurred.

Criteria	JORC Code explanation	Commentary
Logging	Whether core and chip samples have been geologically and geotechnically logged to a level of detail to support appropriate Mineral Resource estimation, mining studies and metallurgical studies. Whether logging is qualitative or quantitative in nature. Core (or costean, channel, etc) photography. The total length and percentage of the relevant intersections logged.	Detailed geological and geotechnical logging was completed for each hole. All core has been photographed. Complete holes were logged.
Sub- sampling techniques and sample preparation	If core, whether cut or sawn and whether quarter, half or all core taken. If non-core, whether riffled, tube sampled, rotary split, etc and whether sampled wet or dry. For all sample types, the nature, quality and appropriateness of the sample preparation technique. Quality control procedures adopted for all sub- sampling stages to maximise representivity of samples. Measures taken to ensure that the sampling is representative of the in situ material collected, including for instance results for field duplicate/second-half sampling. Whether sample sizes are appropriate to the grain size of the material being sampled.	Half core was sampled, using a core saw. Duplicate samples of new and historical core are Quarter core or half core where not previously sampled Sample sizes are considered appropriate for the grain size of the material being sampled. It is expected that bulk sampling will be utilised as the project advances, to more accurately determine grade.
Quality of assay data and laboratory tests	The nature, quality and appropriateness of the assaying and laboratory procedures used and whether the technique is considered partial or total. For geophysical tools, spectrometers, handheld XRF instruments, etc, the parameters used in determining the analysis including instrument make and model, reading times, calibrations factors applied and their derivation, etc. Nature of quality control procedures adopted (eg standards, blanks, duplicates, external laboratory checks) and whether acceptable levels of accuracy (ie lack of bias) and precision have been established.	Core samples that have been sent to the lab for analysis include control samples (standards, blanks and prep duplicates) inserted at a minimum rate of 1:5 samples. In addition to the minimum rate of inserted control samples, a standard or a blank is inserted following a zone of mineralization or visible spodumene and/or petalite Further duplicate samples were analysed to assess variability
Verification of sampling and assaying	The verification of significant intersections by either independent or alternative company personnel. The use of twinned holes. Documentation of primary data, data entry procedures, data verification, data storage (physical and electronic) protocols. Discuss any adjustment to assay data.	Re-assaying of selected intervals of historic core have been sent for analysis.

Criteria	JORC Code explanation	Commentary
Location of data points	Accuracy and quality of surveys used to locate drill holes (collar and down-hole surveys), trenches, mine workings and other locations used in Mineral Resource estimation. Specification of the grid system used. Quality and adequacy of topographic control.	Survey information on historic drill holes is not available. UTM grid NAD83 Zone 14N.
Data spacing and distribution	Data spacing for reporting of Exploration Results. Whether the data spacing and distribution is sufficient to establish the degree of geological and grade continuity appropriate for the Mineral Resource and Ore Reserve estimation procedure(s) and classifications applied. Whether sample compositing has been applied.	Most drilling is targeting verification and extension of known mineralisation. It is expected that the data will be utilised in a preparation of a Mineral Resource statement. Additional drilling is exploration beneath geochemical anomalies, and would require further delineation drilling to be incorporated in a Mineral Resource.
Orientation of data in relation to geological structure	Whether the orientation of sampling achieves unbiased sampling of possible structures and the extent to which this is known, considering the deposit type. If the relationship between the drilling orientation and the orientation of key mineralised structures is considered to have introduced a sampling bias, this should be assessed and reported if material.	In general, the aim was to drill perpendicular to the pegmatite dykes, to gain an estimate of the true thickness of the mineralised structures. At several locations, a series (fan) of holes was drilled to help confirm the orientation of the mineralised structures and to keep land disturbance to a minimum.
Sample s Security	The measures taken to ensure sample security.	Samples from Cormorant and White Rabbit were delivered to the laboratory by a commercial transport service.
Audits or Reviews	The results of any audits or reviews of sampling techniques and data.	Not applicable to historic data

- down hole length and interception depth
- hole length.
If the exclusion of this information is justified on the basis that the information is not Material and this exclusion does not detract from the understanding of the report, the Competent Person should clearly explain why this is the case.

Refer to Appendix 1, Table 1b for drill hole collar information

Criteria	JORC Code explanation	Commentary
Data aggregation methods	In reporting Exploration Results, weighting averaging techniques, maximum and/or minimum grade truncations (eg cutting of high grades) and cut-off grades are usually Material and should be stated. Where aggregate intercepts incorporate short lengths of high grade results and longer lengths of low grade results, the procedure used for such aggregation should be stated and some typical examples of such aggregations should be shown in detail. The assumptions used for any reporting of metal equivalent values should be clearly stated.	Intervals reported using several samples are calculated using a weighted average. Calculated intervals using a weighted average did not use a top cut on high-grade samples. High-grade samples are reported as 'including' Calculated weighted average intervals are continuous intervals of a mineralized zone and do not include unsampled intervals or unmineralized intervals.
Relationship between mineralisation widths and intercept lengths	These relationships are particularly important in the reporting of Exploration Results. If the geometry of the mineralisation with respect to the drill hole angle is known, its nature should be reported. If it is not known and only the down hole lengths are reported, there should be a clear statement to this effect (eg 'down hole length, true width not known').	In general, drilling is designed to intersect the mineralized zone at a normal angle, but this is not always possible. For the reported intervals, true widths are reported where mineralized core was intact and possible to measure the orientation. Otherwise the true width is left blank
Diagrams	Appropriate maps and sections (with scales) and tabulations of intercepts should be included for any significant discovery being reported These should include, but not be limited to a plan view of drill hole collar locations and appropriate sectional views.	Refer to maps within announcement for drill hole locations.
Balanced reporting	Where comprehensive reporting of all Exploration Results is not practicable, representative reporting of both low and high grades and/or widths should be practiced to avoid misleading reporting of Exploration Results.	Where broader low-grade intervals are reported the high-grade intercepts are reported as 'including' within the reported interval

Commentary

Other substantive exploration data

Other exploration data, if meaningful and material, should be reported including (but not limited to): geological observations; geophysical survey results; geochemical survey results; bulk samples - size and method of treatment; metallurgical test results; bulk density, groundwater, geotechnical and rock characteristics; potential deleterious or contaminating substances.

Tempus is presently conducting a due diligence on the Cormorant and White Rabbit properties. Exploration planning will be done once acquisition is completed.

Further work

The nature and scale of planned further work (eg tests for lateral extensions or depth extensions or large- scale step-out drilling).

Diagrams clearly highlighting the areas of possible extensions, including the main geological interpretations and future drilling areas, provided this information is not commercially sensitive.

Further exploration work will be planned for the Cormorant and White Rabbit projects following the completion of due diligence.
