All drill holes intersected pegmatite with visual indications of spodumene mineralization identified."The results for drill hole 21 have been widely anticipated and it has delivered," said Alicia Milne, President and Chief Executive Officer of Q2 Metals. "We still have three more drill holes to report and are in the process of planning an accelerated exploration program in 2025 to understand the true potential at the Cisco Lithium Property."" The results of the continuous, greater than 300 metres interval, has been yet another piece of validation to the story of Cisco, " said Neil McCallum, Vice President Exploration of the Company. "W e've drilled some world-class intervals already, but the development of Cisco is still in its infancy and we look forward to continuing our understanding of the project through further drilling in 2025."The analytical results reported herein represent 1,431.1 m of drilling over three (3) holes during the summer drill campaign; with analytical results remaining to be reported on three (3) additional drill holes that were completed (drill holes CS-24-020, 022 and 023).Complete highlighted intervals from holes CS-24-017, 019 and 021 are summarized in Table 1 and represented in Figure 1, with two cross sections in Figures 2 and 3.Figure 1. Map of Recent Drill Holes with Analytical Results at Cisco PropertyDrill holes CS-24-017 and 019 targeted the western portions of the wide mineralized zone. The results reveal several separate mineralized intervals including the widest interval of 71.8 m at 1.01% Li 2 O, including 13.3 m at 1.77% Li 2 O in CS-24-017and 56.8 m at 1.06% Li 2 O, including 9.1 m at 1.80% Li 2 O in CS-24-019 .Drill hole CS-24-021 (Hole 21) targeted the central portions of the wide mineralized zone with results of 347.1 m at 1.35% Li 2 O, including seven (7) higher-grade sub-intervals, including 30 m at 1.76% Li 2 O. Hole 21 is located approximately 200 m north of hole CS-24-018 which assays reported a 215.6 m interval at 1.69% Li 2 O, including 64.6 m at 2.29% Li 2 O. Hole 21 is also located south of hole CS-24-010 which assays reported a 120.3 m interval of 1.72% Li 2 O.Figure 2. Cross Section A (looking northeast)Figure 3. Cross Section B (looking northeast)Table 1. Summary of Analytical Results of Drill Holes at Cisco PropertyAll intervals of greater than 2 m of core-length are included in the table. Internal dilution of non-pegmatite material was limited to intervals of less than 5 m. No specific grade cap or lower cut-offs were used during grade and width calculations. All intervals are reported as core widths and mineralized intervals in all the holes drilled thus far are not representative of the true width as the modelled pegmatite zones are being refined with every additional hole. Drill hole collar information has been previously reported for each drill hole reported herein and is also available at: https://www.q2metals.com/property/cisco-lithium-property/.Due to the Quality Assurance/Quality Control (QA/QC) protocols in place by both the Company and the analytical laboratory (SGS Canada), drill hole CS-24-020, and the uppermost pegmatite interval of drill hole CS-24-021 were re-submitted for testing. Results will be reported when received and reviewed by the Company.About the Cisco PropertyThe Cisco Property is comprised of 222 mineral claims and is 11,374 hectares in size. It is located less than 10 kilometres ("km") east of the Billy Diamond Highway, and is approximately 150 km north of Matagami, a small town that contains the closest rail link to much of James Bay. The Property lies within the greater Nemaska Community lands of the Eeyou Istchee Territory, James Bay, Quebec.The Property is situated along the Frotet Evans Greenstone Belt, comprised of a volcanic package dominated by mafic to felsic metavolcanic rocks, of the southern James Bay Lithium District, the same belt that hosts the Sirmac and Moblan lithium deposits, located 130 km and 180 km away, respectively.Sampling, Analytical Methods and QA/QC ProtocolsAll drill core samples were shipped to SGS Canada's preparation facility in Val D'Or, Quebec, for standard sample preparation (code PRP92) which includes drying at 105°C, crushing to 90% passing 2 mm, riffle split 500 g, and pulverize 85% passing 75 microns. The pulps are then shipped by air to SGS Canada's laboratory in Burnaby, BC, where the samples are homogenized and subsequently analyzed for multi-element (including Li and Ta) using sodium peroxide fusion with ICP-AES/MS finish (code GE_ICM91A50). The reported Li grade was reported by SGS Canada as lithium oxide (Li 2 O). Drill core was saw-cut with half-core sent for geochemical analysis and half-core remaining in the box for reference. The same side of the core was sampled to maintain representativeness.A Quality Assurance / Quality Control (QA/QC) protocol following industry best practices was incorporated into the sampling program. Measures include the systematic insertion of quartz blanks and certified reference materials (CRMs) into sample batches at a rate of approximately 5% each. Additionally, analysis of pulp-split and reject-split duplicates was completed to assess analytical precision. The QP has verified the QA/QC results of the analytical work.Qualified PersonNeil McCallum, B.Sc., P.Geol, is a registered permit holder with the Ordre des Géologues du Québec and Qualified Person as defined by NI 43-101 and has reviewed and approved the technical information in this news release.
