LAURION Mineral Exploration Inc. announced assay results for six (6) new diamond drill holes which tested the potential of the undrilled continuity of mineralization, between the southwestern portion of the A-Zone and towards the McLeod Zone. Both the A-Zone and McLeod Zones are located along the 6 km long Au-Zn-Cu-Ag mineralized trend at the Ishkoday project, near Beardmore, Ontario. The current assay results demonstrate that anomalous gold-silver-zinc mineralization was intersected in each of the six recently completed drill holes linking the A-Zone and McLeod Zones for more than 200 m along strike returning: LBX22-066 from 106.00 to 130.50 m: 24.50 m (22.26 m TW) at 0.43 g/t Au, 3.86 g/t Ag and 0.49% Zn; including 2.20 m at 0.87 g/t Au, 1.07% Zn and 7.55 g/t Ag LBX22-067 from 63.00 to 64.40 m: 1.40 m (1.04 m TW) at 0.70 g/t Au and 0.84 g/t Ag LBX22-068 from 32.35 to 34.40 m: 1.95 m (1.57 m TW) at 1.66 g/t Au, 0.70% Zn, and 7.79 g/t Ag LBX22-068 from 197.00 to 211.20 m: 14.20 m (11.24 m TW) at 0.26 g/t Au, 0.43% Zn, and 1.97 g/t Ag LBX22-069 from 100.10 to 101.40 m: 1.30 m (0.97 m TW) at 1.16 g/t Au and 0.85 g/t AgLBX22-069 from 174.95 to 179.00 m: 4.05 m (3.02 m TW) at 0.41 g/t Au, 0.26% Zn, and 1.70 g/t Ag LBX22-070 from 12.06 to 14.00 m: 1.94 m (1.57 m TW) at 0.29 g/t Au, 0.11% Zn, and 2.74 g/t Ag LBX22-071 from 65.00 to 84.50 m: 19.50 m (15.00 m TW) at 0.22 g/t Au and 1.02 g/t Ag; including 4.50 m at 0.54 g/t Au, and 2.72 g/t Ag LBX22-071 from 126.30 to 138.00 m: 11.70 m (8.92 m TW) at 0.31 g/t Au, and 2.11 g/t Ag; including 5.30 m at 0.51 g/t Au, and 3.65 g/t Ag, and 2.80 m at 0.82 g/t Au; 1.09% Zn, and 5.41 g/t Ag.

Current Drilling and Objectives A total of 11,892 m in thirty-eight (38) diamond drill holes have been drilled to date with assays pending for twelve (12) drill holes in the McLeod Zone to test the continuity to the southwest where the stacked veins coincide with a large magnetic high anomaly. Seven (7) drill holes are planned in this area. Samples from the 2022 drilling were cut and sent for analysis.

Preparation and analysis were completed at the Actlabs (ISO 9001:2015) laboratory in Thunder Bay. Actlabs is an internationally recognized laboratory that provides geochemical sample preparation, analytical procedures, and data management solutions. LAURION uses a quality assurance/quality control (QA/QC) program that monitors the chain of custody of samples and includes the insertion of blanks (5% of the announced results), duplicates (3% of the announced results), and standard reference material (5% of the announced results) in each batch of samples sent for analysis.

Drill core is photographed, logged, and cut in half with one half retained in a secured location for verification purposes and one half shipped for analysis. The entire sample is crushed to 80% passing 2 mm and a riffle split of 250 grams is taken and pulverized to 95% passing 105 µm (RX1). Samples are analyzed by four-acid digestion/ICP-MS package for 36 elements (1F2).

Additionally, samples are analyzed for Au using a firing assay from a 50-gram pulp (1A2B-50). Overlimit samples values for zinc (>1%) and Pb (>0.5%) are re-assayed using a four-acid digestion overlimit method with ICP-AES 9 (8-4 Acid over limit). No QA/QC issues were noted with the results reported herein.
