GREEN
BATTERY MINERALS MOBILIZES TO BERKWOOD GRAPHITE PROPERTY, QUÉBEC,
TO UNDERTAKE 6TH
DRILL
PROGRAM.
VANCOUVER,
BRITISH COLUMBIA - Aug. 26th, 2022 - InvestorsHub
NewsWire - Green Battery Minerals inc. (the
"Company") (TSX-V:
GEM, FSE: BK2P, WKN: A2QENP OTC: GBMIF) is pleased to announce that it has
mobilized a drill contractor to commence additional drilling on
Zone 6 of it's 100% owned Berkwood Graphite Project. The program is
intended to further define the extent and grade of the Zone 6
graphite discovery and to drill into the outcrops that were exposed
in our last mapping program done in July of this year.
The 20-hole 2,000 m 2022 drill
program has been designed based on the results of surface exposures
of graphite identified during the previous July mapping program
(see
news release date August 5, 2022). Semi continuous horizons
of graphite were identified along the trend illustrated in Figure 1
and Figure 2 and appear to define a recumbent fold structure.
Drilling is to initially focus on outcropping areas of graphite. At
each of the principal outcrop locations a number of holes will be
advanced and will attempt to demonstrate down dip and along-strike
continuity. Drilling will commence along 400m of continuous
graphite exposure along the south-dipping southern limb of the
antiform between Areas 1 – 3 outcrops (Figure 1). Where access is
possible, targeted holes will be advanced in the nose of the
antiform, where surface mapping has identified fault offset surface
continuity into the Area 4 outcrops. Several targeted holes have
also been specifically designed to establish the near surface true
thickness of the outcropping graphite.
Drilling is expected to
commence before the end of August 2022 and is expected to last for
4 to 6 weeks with field operations based out of Manic 5, Quebec.
The proposed budget has been approved in the amount of
CAD$1,000,000.

proposed drill holes.
The Company has previously
completed a drill program on Zone 6 for a total of 970 meters in 12
drill holes. Six of the twelve drill locations were drilled into
outcrops and intersected significant graphite enrichment
(see
news release date May 6, 2022).
Tom Yingling, President and CEO
of Green Battery states "It's
not every day you get to drill into high grade anything and here we
are about to drill directly into 4 separate graphite outcrops along
a defined 400m strike length with strong indications of more.
Needless to say, we are excited to test these outcrops at depth
under much fairer conditions than those we encountered last
winter."
About the Berkwood
Graphite Project
The Berkwood Graphite Project
is located within the jurisdiction of Quebec, in the Manicouagan
Regional County Municipality, three hours driving time from the
city of Baie-Comeau. Easy access is provided via a major secondary
road and numerous tertiary and forest roads that traverse the
property.
The Zone 1 deposit lies 8 km
southwest of Mason Graphite's deposit which is the subject of a
current feasibility study. The Company believes its Zone 1 deposit
and that of Mason share many similar geological characteristics
with the Zone 1 deposit being one of the highest-grade graphite
deposits in the world.
The current mineral resource at
the Lac Gueret South Graphite Project includes in-pit constrained
resource totalling 1,755,300 tonnes of indicated resources at 17.00
% Cgr and 1,526,400 tonnes in inferred resources at 16.39 %
Cgr.
