SLAM Negotiates 2000 Meter Drilling Contract

Targeting Potential Extensions Of 31.20 Meter Zone Grading 3.84% Copper Equivalent

September 13, 2024, Miramichi, New Brunswick ? TheNewswire - SLAM Exploration Ltd. ("SLAM" or the "Company") (TSXV-SXL) announces that it has negotiated a contract for a 2,000 meter diamond drilling campaign to test copper nickel zones at its wholly owned Goodwin claims. The Goodwin Project is located 35 kilometers south of the Caribou mine and mill complex in the Bathurst Mining Camp ("BMC") of New Brunswick.

Flow-Through Private Placement:

The drilling program will commence once the previously announced flow-through private placement has closed (the "Private Placement"). Further to the news release dated August 16, 2024, the Private placement is anticipated to now be comprised of up to 16,350,001 flow-through units ("FT Units") to be issued at a price of $0.03 per FT Unit for gross proceeds up to $490,503. Each FT Unit will be comprised of one common share of the Company issued on a "flow-through" basis and one-half common share purchase warrant (with two such half warrants being a "Warrant"), each Warrant will be exercisable by the holder thereof at a price of $0.05 for a period of 24 months to acquire one additional common share of the Company. The FT Units will qualify for the 30% Critical Mineral Exploration Tax Credit ("CMETC") in addition to the Canadian Exploration Expenditure ("CEE") flow through tax deduction. Closing of the Private Placement remains subject to receipt of TSX-V approval.

Drilling Targets: The 2,000 meter drilling program will be designed to test the following priority targets:

• The Granges Zone: SLAM drilled a 64.90 meter core interval grading 2.14% copper equivalent including 31.20 meters grading 3.84% copper equivalent in hole GW24-02.

• The Farquharson Zone: SLAM drilled a 60.60 meter core interval grading 1.17% copper equivalent from 72.90 meters to 133.50 meters in hole GW24-03 as reported August 12, 2024

• The Logan Zone: Massive sulphide core intervals up to 6 meters and disseminated sulphide core intervals up to 30 meters were reported from 5 historic holes drilled in 1960 but assays were not included. Assays were reported for an additional 7 holes were drilled from 1969 to 1997. They include hole MM71-05B intersected a 16.95 meter core interval grading 0.37% copper and 0.44% nickel with individual core samples grading up to 0.72% copper and 1.05% nickel over 2.10 meters (these results predate NI43-101 regulations and can only be validated by additional drilling).

• Other Targets: Other targets include untested soil geochemical anomalies, MegaTEM conductors and magnetic anomalies that occur in the vicinity of the 3 known copper nickel zones shown on the map below. In addition to the drilling program, the Company is planning a 1,500 meter trenching program to test selected targets.
