Noram Receives Results For CVZ-72 With The Longest And Highest-Grade Intercept From All Of The Zeus Drilling To Date

May 5, 2022

Vancouver, British Columbia – May 5, 2022 – Sandy MacDougall, CEO of Noram Lithium Corp. (“Noram” or the “Company”) (TSXV: NRM | OTCQB: NRVTF | Frankfurt: N7R) is pleased to announce the successful completion of CVZ-72 (PH-06) and release of the final assay results. The Company completed core hole CVZ-72 at a depth of 428 feet (130.5 m). Sampling for assay began at 60 ft (18.3 m) and continued to the bottom of the hole, an interval thickness of 368 ft (112.2 m) was intersected, which was the entire assayed portion of the hole. The hole ended in mineralization and the weighted average lithium values present were as follows:

Depth of Interval Intersection

Total thickness

Weighted Average Lithium (ppm)

60 ft to 428 ft (18.3 m to 130.5 m)

368.0 ft (112.2 m)

1120.9 ppm

Including:

 

 

110 ft to 380 ft (33.5 m to 115.8 m)

270.0 ft (82.3 m)

1224.1 ppm

 


Figure 1. Comparative stratigraphy and assay results for drill holes CVZ-72 as compared to CVZ-53 and CVZ-68, which were drilled as part of the Phases IV and V programs.  CVZ-53 and CVZ-68 both had long intercepts of high grade lithium mineralization.  The histogram on the sides of the holes are the composited lithium grades in ppm Li.  The cross section has a 4X vertical exaggeration.

“CVZ-72 was the second hole completed in Noram’s 12-hole Phase VI drilling program.  These assays represent the longest and highest-grade interval of lithium mineralization intersected to date on the Zeus property.  This hole also clearly reaffirms the consistently high lithium grades across this blanket-like mineral deposit. If the program continues to produce results such as these, we could reasonably expect our PFS to outshine our PEA. Ending in mineralization at depths such as these suggests even greater potential for the size and extent of this resource” comments Brad Peek, VP of Exploration and geologist on all six phases of Noram’s Clayton Valley exploration drilling.
