WESTMOUNT MOBILIZES EXPLORATION TEAM TO KABA LITHIUM PROPERTY

Westmount Minerals Corp. has mobilized an exploration team to the Kaba lithium property in Northwestern Ontario. The team has commenced reconnaissance mapping and sampling, and has confirmed multiple pegmatite outcroppings and lithium mineral indicators.

The Georgia Lake lithium-pegmatite field is located just west of the property. Within the pegmatite field, Rock Tech Lithium Inc. has completed a prefeasibility study (see news release dated Nov. 16, 2022) stating that its Georgia Lake property has 10.6 million tonnes of indicated mineral resources grading 0.88 per cent Li2O and 4.22 million tonnes of inferred mineral resources at a grade of 1 per cent Li2O (see news release dated March 7, 2023). Other companies with lithium mineralization prospects include Imagine Lithium Inc. and Ultra Lithium Inc.

David Tafel, chief executive officer and director, commented: "Our geological team has commenced a sampling program after confirming the presence of multiple pegmatite outcroppings as well as lithium indicator minerals as reported in historical government reports. Early indications are validating the potential we see for the Kaba property. While there is significant work to be done, initial exploration is encouraging and underscores its strategic location in the Georgia Lake pegmatite area."

About Westmount Minerals Corp.

Westmount is focused on mineral exploration in the Americas and is well positioned in the emerging world-class critical minerals district of Northwest Ontario.

Multiple pegmatite showings have been documented and mapped on the property by the Ontario Geological Survey.

Additionally, Westmount can earn a 100-per-cent interest in the 5,002-hectare lithium-pegmatite-bearing Otatakan and Pilot East lithium properties, located near Ear Falls, Ont. The properties are just south of Green Technology Metal's (Australian Securities Exchange listed) expanding Root deposit.

The company has also advanced the Douay East gold property, located within the greater Abitibi greenstone belt region in Quebec, to the drill-ready stage.
