Starmet Ventures to acquire 302 claims in Ontario

STARMET VENTURES INC. ACQUIRES MINING CLAIMS LOCATED NEAR EAR FALLS CAMPING LAKE, ONTARIO

Starmet Ventures Inc. has entered into two letters of intent to acquire a total of 302 mineral claims located near Ear Falls in the province of Ontario. The Claims cover approximately 6,040 hectares. The Claims are located between 1 km and 16 km (depending on the claim block) from Ear Falls, Ontario (Figure 1), and are easily accessible year-round by way of well-maintained highway and logging roads and feature good outcrop exposure.

The Claims are contiguous to Beyond Lithium Inc.'s (CSE: BY) recent spodumene discovery (Figure 1). On September 17, 2023 Beyond Lithium Inc. announced that it had discovered a new spodumene bearing pegmatites zone at its Ear Falls Project, along a structural controlled zone of over 1 km in strike length with grab samples assayed up to 4.54% Li2O from spodumene pegmatites. The host rock for the spodumene pegmatites is the Wenasaga Lake batholith.

Regionally, the Wenasaga Lake batholith is described as a S-type pluton and is likely the plutonic source of the Sandy Creek beryl pegmatites located on the Beyond Lithium claims. The batholith was mapped concordant to the Uchi-English River sub provincial boundary covering approximately 260 km2 in area (Breaks 2003) 2 . The Sandy Creek beryl bearing pegmatites were noted to follow this regional foliation orientation of the host metasedimentary rock (Breaks 1993). 1 This regional NE structure is an ideal host and fluid pathway for the formation and fractionation of LCT pegmatites (Bradley 2017) 2 . The Sandy Creek beryl pegmatites are located 7 km southwest of the new Beyond Lithium Inc.'s spodumene pegmatites zone (Breaks 1993) 1.. . They were discovered in the early 1960s and very limited to no exploration work has been done in that area since their discovery.

Ohad David, CEO of Starmet commented: "We had been following the recent success of many lithium exploration companies in Ontario for quite some time. We are pleased to have secured a meaningful land position adjacent to the recent spodumene bearing pegmatite discovery announce by one of the preeminent exploration companies in Ontario." He added: "We will shortly be formalizing plan to send a technical team to our properties and commence an initial exploration phase."

The first Transaction is to acquire 257 unpatented mineral claims in consideration for 6 million common shares of the Company and $35,000. A 2.0% net smelter return royalty (the "Royalty") will be granted by the Company to the vendors, in the aggregate, half of which the Company may repurchase for an amount of $1 million in cash (representing 1.0% of the net smelter return and resulting in a remaining Royalty at a rate of 1.0% of the net smelter return).

The second Transaction is to acquire 45 unpatented mineral claims in exchange for 100,000 common shares and $5,000 cash.

Both transactions are at arm's length. The common shares are subject to a four month plus one day hold period.
