GMV MINERALS OPTIONS DAISY CREEK LITHIUM PROJECT IN NORTH CENTRAL NEVADA AND ANNOUNCES UNIT OFFERING

GMV Minerals Inc. has entered into an option agreement dated May 15, 2023, with Western Property Holdings LLC for the exclusive option to acquire the Daisy Creek property, Nevada, consisting of 82 lode mining claims comprising 1,694.12 acres.

The Daisy Creek lithium property is located in Lander county in north-central Nevada. The claims are located near several operating gold mines and access to power, water and paved highways are nearby. The area was prospected by several oil and mining companies for uranium in the early 1970s, staked by Phillips Uranium in 1977, and drilled in the 1980s, when well-known Nevada geologist Clancy Wendt was employed by Phillips.

Drilling by Phillips did not identify uranium but, instead, lithium in at least two drill holes with Li values up to 2 per cent in clay-altered volcanic tuffs. In a letter dated Feb. 26, 2023, provided by Mr. Wendt, he states: "The company underwent substantial analysis of the occurrence to determine the source of lithium. All drill additive, oils and greases used by the driller were sampled and tested with no lithium noted. Drill water was sampled and analyzed and likewise returned no lithium. The company noted that the lithium was likely contained in hectorite, a lithium-bearing clay mineral found in altered volcanic tuffs." ** Note: These are historical results and have not been subjected to quality assurance/quality control standards as required by National Instrument 43-101. They are believed to be accurate and are reported for historical purposes only.

The project geology has been described by Stewart and McKee (1977) in the NBM Bulletin 8, "The Geology and Mineral Deposits of Lander County, Nevada." The mountains are dominantly composed of the tuff of early Miocene age (23.6 million to 24.5 million years). This unit is a crystal-rich ash-flow tuff up to 3,000 feet thick. The formation covers about 200 square miles and has not been recognized outside of the Daisy Creek area mountains. Within this volcanic complex, a graben or collapse-type structure has been developed, possibly related to the retreat of magma, for example, apical graben. Since the initial collapse, the basin has incrementally filled with an unknown thickness of epiclastic rocks, mostly finely laminated tuffs which are the likely host to anomalous lithium values. The limits of this northwest-trending, structurally controlled graben are defined by the mountain tuff and range from steep (fault) to shallow (unconformable). The basin that hosts the Daisy Creek project covers about 18 square miles and is mostly composed of fissile, finely laminated sediments, such as mudstone and claystone, and tuffs. The basin is characterized by its low relief flanked by steeper topography held up by the volcanic tuffs. Several small drainages transect the basin and provide detailed views of the basin stratigraphy. A pronounced hill in the basin is capped by a Quaternary basalt flow.

Ian Klassen, president, commented: "We are delighted to add another high-value property to the company. We see the Daisy Creek project as a remarkable addition to the company's highly promising Mexican Hat gold property located in southeastern Arizona. Recognizing Wendt as a renowned geologist in Nevada, we are very excited to continue field activities on the Daisy where he noted the similarities between what he saw at Daisy Creek and Lithium America's burgeoning Thacker Pass discovery located in the McDermitt caldera of Nevada. The opportunity to advance a property that has reported Li values of up to 20,000 parts per million is enticing to say the least."

In order to exercise the option, the company must (with all payments and share issuances being optional pursuant to the option agreement):

• Pay to the optionor up to $350,000 (U.S.) of which $50,000 (U.S.) has been paid, together with three further annual instalments of $100,000 (U.S.) on each anniversary of the date of acceptance of the option agreement by the TSX Venture Exchange;
• Issue to the optionor up to 6.5 million common shares of the company in the following annual instalments:
  • 1.0 million shares forthwith after the approval date;
  • A further 1.0 million shares on or before the first anniversary of the approval date;
  • A further 1.0 million shares on or before the second anniversary of the approval date;
  • The final 3.5 million shares on or before the third anniversary of the approval date.
• Complete at least $1.25-million (U.S.) in exploration and development expenditures on the Daisy Creek lithium property in minimum annual expenditures of:
  • The first $250,000 (U.S.) in expenditures on or before the first anniversary of the approval date;
  • A further $500,000 (U.S.) in expenditures on or before the second anniversary of the approval date;
  • The final $500,000 (U.S.) in expenditures on or before the third anniversary of the approval date.

As additional consideration, upon exercise of the option the company will grant to the optionor a 3.0-per-cent net smelter returns royalty payable upon commencement of commercial production, and the company may reduce the NSR by one-third (to a 2.0-per-cent NSR) upon the payment of $1.0-million (U.S.) to the optionor at any time prior to the commencement of commercial production.

Also, the company announces, subject to approval from the TSX Venture Exchange, a non-brokered private placement of up to 10 million units. The private placement offering will be at 14 Canadian cents per unit to raise gross proceeds of up to $1.4-million, and will consist of one common share in the capital of the company and one full share purchase warrant.

Each warrant will be exercisable at 22 Canadian cents to purchase an additional common share for a period of up to 24 months following the closing date.

The net proceeds of the offering will be used to advance exploration activities at the company's 100-per-cent-controlled Mexican Hat gold property located in southeastern Arizona, advance exploration at the Daisy Creek lithium project, as well as for general working capital. Finder's fees may be paid on the offering pursuant to the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange.
