NEWPATH RESOURCES OPTIONS PAT ANN CLAIMS ADJACENT TO ALPHA/BRAVO

Newpath Resources Inc. has optioned the Pat Ann claim group situated 35 kilometres northeast of Thunder Bay, Ont., comprising approximately 1,150 hectares and contiguous to Newpath's 100-per-cent-owned Alpha-Bravo property. The combined claim groups cover 13,100 hectares and present an opportunity to explore a large, contiguous land package with potential to host both lithium-bearing pegmatites and base metal mineralization.

Pat Ann covers a diverse geological setting, with obvious LCT (lithium-cesium-tantalum) pegmatite potential in the northeast, similar to the company's nearby Hilltop showing. The remainder of Pat Ann is underlain by mixed units of metamorphosed Archean volcanic and sedimentary rocks and an intrusive complex. Copper-zinc mineralization at Pat Ann is hosted within highly altered and strained Archean volcanic rocks and can be traced in scattered outcrop and trenches for a minimum 1.3 kilometres and the zone remains open to further expansion. The host unit is highly magnetic and conductive, making it an excellent target that can be traced with modern geophysical methods.

Mineralization appears to be related to a quartz-plus-magnetite-(iron-oxide)-rich unit that may be up to 40 metres thick that has been locally fractured and altered with an iron sulphide "cement" made predominately of pyrrhotite and pyrite. Mineralization is coarse grained, copper occurs as chalcopyrite and anomalous gold, silver, cobalt, nickel and zinc is also present. More work is needed to understand the roles of structure, alteration and stratigraphy; to date there is no record of such work in the area.

To exercise the option, Newpath must incur aggregate expenditures on Pat Ann of $550,000, make aggregate cash payments of $532,000 to the optionors and issue 500,000 common shares to the optionors on or before the dates set out in the attached table.

Additonally, Newpath agreed to maintain the Pat Ann claims in good standing and incur the exploration expenditures required, but anniversary dates may need to be adjusted pending the outcome of first nations consultation and permit approvals. Upon exercise of the option, the optionors will retain a 1.6-per-cent net smelter returns royalty, subject to buyout of 50 per cent for a cash payment of $800,000 which will survive to the sixth anniversary of the royalty vesting date. Only the first cash payment is committed, thereafter it is Newpath's election to maintain the option agreement in good standing.

Previous exploration

The first recorded work was completed in 1955. The copper showings were trenched and 12 core holes totalling 1,498.7 m were drilled. Nine holes into the zone intersected sulphides within which were four intervals with chalcopyrite. The best individual drill intersection was from DDH 2, which assayed 0.82 per cent Cu (copper), 0.6 per cent Zn (zinc) and trace Au (gold) over 0.76 m within a 7.4 interval of disseminated to semi-massive sulphides. Gold was assayed but is reported to be low in tenor. A QP (qualified person) has not independently reviewed the historic drill core or verified the historic analytical results. Until such verification has been carried out, the historical assay results should not be relied on.

During 1991 and 1993 a local prospector carried out prospecting, some mapping, VLF-EM and Beepmat surveys utilizing government prospector-assistance funding.

All historical work accessed the property by means of logging roads from the west, most of which have fallen into disrepair. Newer logging road access now extends along the eastern side of Pat Ann, from Alpha Bravo. Previously unknown extensions to the zone have recently been found both in the southeast and the northwest.

Additional new prospecting discoveries

Prospecting crews working for Newpath have found other prospects of interest elsewhere on the Alpha Bravo project. Of note is an area referred to as the Plaid target south of Pat Ann, where rusty-weathering, siliceous volcanic breccias returned chip-channel samples high in copper and gold. These prospects, which appear to be new showings, are associated with a strong magnetic anomaly. A QP has not visited this target, but follow-up is planned for early summer, 2025.

Also, prospecting outward from the company's Hilltop area worked south and east. Numerous new micaceous pegmatites found, with one cluster yielding very favourable LIBS results, suggesting LCT pegmatites may be present.
