FSY Forsys Metals Corp

Forsys Metals Corp. (TSX: FSY) (FSE: F2T) (NSX: FSY) (“Forsys” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that it has commenced an updated drilling program at the Company’s Norasa Uranium Project sites (“Norasa Project” or “Norasa”) located in Namibia, Africa. The Norasa Project is wholly-owned by the Company’s subsidiary Valencia Uranium (Pty) Ltd. (“Valencia Uranium”) and comprises the Valencia Uranium Project (ML149) ("Valencia”) and the Namibplaas Uranium Project (EPL3638) (“Nambiplaas”) in the Erongo region of Namibia.

With the advancement of metallurgical, engineering and mining technology since drilling work was last undertaken for the Norasa Project’s Definitive Feasibility Study in 2015, the Company has started a 4,100 metres drilling program, which commenced on March 31, 2023. This program aims to retrieve fresh samples at depths of up to 420 meters from the slope areas for both the planned mining pits at Valencia and Namibplaas.

The focus of the drilling program is :

• geotechnical logging and sampling for geo-mechanical testing for optimizing pit designs;
• testing the continuity of mineralization for optimized resource modelling;
• sampling for metallurgical test work and for optimized processing design and resource block modelling of the orebodies;

Figure-1 below, shows the drilling program within ML-149 Valencia and EPL-3638 Namibplaas (ML-251 pending). One Reverse Circulation (“RC”) drill rig and one Diamond Core (“DC”) drill rig are presently on ML-149, with a second DC rig scheduled to come to site. Additional drill locations will be required for further in-depth studies and for a proven geotechnical design status.
