Spearmint Commences Operations on its Perron-East Gold Project in Quebec

By News

June 15, 2021 – Spearmint Resources Inc. (CSE: SPMT) (OTC Pink: SPMTD) (FSE: A2AHL5) (the “Company”) is pleased to announce that its 2021 work program is now underway on the 100-percent owned Perron-East gold project in Quebec, located in the direct vicinity of Amex Exploration Inc. (AMX—TSX.v) and Starr Peak Mining Ltd. (STE—TSX.v). Spearmint is looking to build upon the success of the Company’s last work program which discovered multiple soil anomalies. Spearmint will be conducting an Induced Polarization (IP) survey over these anomalies with the expectation for a fully-funded 2021 summer drill program once the highest priority drill targets are defined. Management cautions that past results or discoveries on properties in proximity to Spearmint may not necessarily be indicative to the presence of mineralization on the Company’s properties.

James Nelson, President of Spearmint Resources stated, “Coming fresh off the heels of our maiden resource estimate on the Clayton Valley Lithium Clay Project in Nevada, we are very pleased to immediately get right back to work on our Perron-East Gold Project in Quebec, located in the direct vicinity of Amex Exploration Inc. (AMX—TSX.v) and Starr Peak Mining Ltd. (STE—TSX.v). Both of these companies have recently undertaken significant drill programs utilizing the same geological team as Spearmint (Laurentia Exploration).  On June 7, 2021, Amex Exploration Inc. announced significant drill results including 6.4 m of 32.91 g/t Au at Perron.  On May 5, 2021, Starr Peak Mining Ltd. announced significant drill results including 12.1 m of 23.82% ZnEq at NewMetal, and have since decided to increase the size of their drill program from 5,000 to 20,000 meters.  When you combine this exciting development on the Quebec gold project with the planned upcoming work program on the ‘Goose’ Gold Project in Newfoundland directly bordering New Found Gold Corp. (NFG-TSX.v), and the fact we are planning to conduct follow-up work on our Lithium Clay Project in Clayton Valley, Nevada, based on the recommendations in the Stantec 43-101 Technical Report, it is clear this is one of the most exciting and transformational periods for Spearmint.  Not only do we have multiple upcoming catalysts, but we are in the best financial shape in the Company’s history with approximately $3.5 million in the treasury. A portion of the treasury is comprised of flow-through funds, that we will utilize on Perron-East, which include an initial investment by certain funds managed by Sprott Asset Management LP. We are very optimistic about the remainder of 2021 and beyond in terms of corporate growth for Spearmint.”

Spearmint Announces Maiden Resource Estimate on its Lithium Clay Project in Clayton Valley, Nevada

By News

June 11, 2021 – Spearmint Resources Inc. (CSE: SPMT) (OTC Pink: SPMTD) (FSE: A2AHL5) (the “Company) is very pleased to announce that it has received the Technical Report and maiden resource estimate on its 100%-owned Clayton Valley Lithium Clay Project in Nevada, USA. The Technical Report includes a maiden resource estimate of 815,000 indicated tonnes and 191,000 inferred tonnes for a total of 1,006,000 tonnes of Lithium Carbonate Equivalent (LCE). The Technical Report was prepared in accordance with the requirements of National Instrument 43-101 by Stantec Consultant Ltd. (“Stantec”). Stantec’s qualified persons (Allan Turner, PGeol, and Derek Loveday, PGeo) have direct experience in the Tonopah area, which includes visiting Albemarle Corp.’s Silver Peak mine and ioneer Ltd.’s Rhyolite Ridge lithium-boron project and completing a resource estimate and technical report for American Lithium Corp. on the TLC lithium project. 

To view the 43-101 Technical Report click here.

Spearmint’s Project is located 55 kilometres west of the town of Tonopah. The Project is accessed off paved State Highway 265, which terminates at the Silver Peak Mine, and then by well-maintained county gravel roads. The Project consists of 26 contiguous unpatented placer claims that span from McGee 30 to McGee 55 and cover 890 acres (~360 hectares).

Drilling on the east half of the Project by Spearmint has discovered a continuous, well mineralized section up to 300 feet thick. The interpreted subsurface distribution of the mineralized claystone includes mixed sediments (tuffaceous mudstone) and green clay. The mixed sediments gradationally overly the green clays and are positively weathering relative to the green clay below. The majority (greater than 80%) of the mineralized claystone comprise the green clay unit.

The geologic model from which lithium resources are reported is a 3D block model. The resource estimates are contained within an economic pit-shell at a constant 45° pit slope to a maximum vertical depth of 535 ft (163 m) below surface, using a base case cut-off grade of 400 ppm lithium to produce an eventual battery grade lithium carbonate product.

The following costs, recoveries and revenue, in metric units and US$, were used to derive a base case cut-off grade for an eventual lithium carbonate (Li2CO3) product:

  • Mining costs US$2/tonne;
  • Processing costs US$15/tonne;
  • Processing recovery 80%; and
  • US$10,000/tonne revenue for Li2CO3 product.

The lithium mineral resource estimates are presented in Table 25.1 in U.S. customary units and Table 25.2 in metric units. Lithium resources are presented for a range of cutoff grades to a maximum of 800 ppm lithium. The base case lithium resource estimates are highlighted in bold type in Table 25.1 and Table 25.2. All lithium resources on the Project are surface mineable at a stripping ratio of 0.11 waste yd3/ton (0.09 m3/tonne) at the base case cut-off grade of 400 ppm lithium. The effective date of the lithium resource estimate is June 9, 2021.

  • CIM definitions are followed for classification of Mineral Resource.
  • Mineral Resource surface pit extent has been estimated using a lithium carbonate price of US10,000 US$/tonne and mining cost of US$2.00 per tonne, a lithium recovery of 80%, fixed density of 1.70 g/cm3 (1.43 tons/yd3).
  • Conversions: 1 metric tonne = 1.102 short tons, metric m3 = 1.308 yd3, Li2CO3:Li ratio = 5.32.
  • Totals may not represent the sum of the parts due to rounding.
  • The Mineral Resource estimate has been prepared by Derek Loveday, P. Geo. of Stantec Consulting Services Ltd. in conformity with CIM “Estimation of Mineral Resource and Mineral Reserves Best Practices” guidelines and are reported in accordance with the Canadian Securities Administrators NI 43-101. Mineral resources are not mineral reserves and do not have demonstrated economic viability. There is no certainty that any mineral resource will be converted into mineral reserve.

James Nelson, President of Spearmint Resources stated, “We are very pleased to receive our maiden resources estimate that includes 815,000 indicated tonnes and 191,000 inferred tonnes for a total of 1,006,000 tonnes of Lithium Carbonate Equivalent (LCE) on our Clayton Valley Lithium Clay Project in Nevada. This is a monumental milestone for Spearmint as we now have our initial maiden resource for the Clayton Valley Lithium Clay Project.  We have only drilled a minor number of holes to date to achieve this maiden resource, and we anticipate that additional targeted drilling could increase this initial calculation.  We are already formulating a plan to achieve this goal.  Spearmint’s recently completed drill program, that discovered lithium in all 10 out of 10 holes, was drilled directly into the shared blanket-like claystone deposit (see map) where our neighbour Cypress Development Corp. already has total measured plus indicated resource estimates of 929.6 million tonnes averaging 1,062 ppm Li or 5.2 million tonnes LCE, announced on August 11, 2020. Spearmint can now add its name to the list of companies with an in-ground resource estimate in Clayton Valley, Nevada. Clayton Valley continues to receive significant global attention as the premier lithium address in the USA, hosting the only producing lithium deposit in North America. Spearmint’s project is strategically located directly between Cypress Development Corp. and Pure Energy Ltd. (PE-TSX.v). Pure has a partnership with Schlumberger (SLB-NYSE) and are building a brine pilot plant with approximately $30 million USD being spent in developments.  On the other side of Spearmint’s property, Cypress has recently closed a private placement for $19.55 million to develop their claystone deposit.  This is a huge benefit to Spearmint to have two major adjacent projects being funded for over $50 million, allowing Spearmint the benefit of a significant outlay of research and development spending on either side of our property, without Spearmint having to commit our own money. Lithium prices remain high as we continue to see insatiable demand in batteries for Electric Vehicles without any sign of slowing down, therefore causing a massive demand for ethically sourced, domestic lithium production.  Spearmint is currently in the best financial shape in the Company’s history with approximately $3.5 million in the treasury, including a recent investment by Sprott Asset Management LP as a new significant shareholder.  Spearmint is now fully-funded for all upcoming planned work/drill programs on 3 other projects; our ‘Goose’ Gold Project in Newfoundland that is the closest property to the Keats discovery zone of New Found Gold Corp. (NFG-TSX.v) whose share price recently crossed $13 per share; a drill program on our Perron-East Gold project in Quebec in direct proximity to AMEX Exploration Inc. (AMX-TSX.v) and Starr Peak Mining Ltd. (STE-TSX.v); and on our ‘Escape Lake North’ PGM Project in Ontario consisting of ~4,000 contiguous acres directly bordering Clean Air Metals Inc. (AIR.v). We are moving forward at a rapid rate right now at a time when demand for lithium is approaching all-time highs and the price of gold is showing strength. Management remains confident about the short and long-term future of Spearmint.”

Spearmint to Begin Phase II Work Program on the ‘Goose’ Gold Project in Newfoundland, Directly Bordering New Found Gold Corp.’s Queensway Property

By News

May 24, 2021 – Spearmint Resources Inc. (CSE: SPMT) (OTC Pink: SPMTD) (FSE: A2AHL5) (the “Company”) wishes to announce that the Company is planning a phase II work program to begin shortly on the ‘Goose’ Gold Project in central Newfoundland. The Goose property directly borders New Found Gold Corp.’s Queensway gold discovery (NFG—TSX.v).

On May 21, 2021 NFG announced a drill intercept interval of 146.2 g/t Au over 25.6m in drill hole NFGC-21-182 in a 65m down-plunge step-out to the south from the previously furthest south high-grade intercept (hole NFGC-21-143), containing two intervals grading 63.7g/t Au over 8.4m and 16.9g/t Au over 2.5m. This latest high-grade gold assay result represents the deepest gold intercept returned to date at Keats. The high-grade zone at Keats has now been drill defined over 425m in the down-plunge direction. The zone remains open and step-out drilling is continuing to the south, vertically above and below this zone, and to the north.

Management cautions that past results or discoveries on properties in proximity to Spearmint may not necessarily be indicative to the presence of mineralization on the Company’s properties.

James Nelson, President of Spearmint, stated “We are pleased to shortly begin a phase II work program in one of the most exciting gold districts in the world.  Spearmint’s property is located approximately 1 kilometer away from New Found Gold’s Keats discovery zone and is the closest mineral property to that discovery. Spearmint has just closed a private placement at a significant premium to the current market price that included certain funds managed by Sprott Asset Management LP (“Sprott”). Sprott is the one of the largest shareholders in New Found Gold Corp. and has also made recent investments in other Newfoundland focused companies such as Labrador Gold Corp. (LAB-TSX.v) and Exploits Discovery Corp. (NFLD-CSE) within the past month. We were very encouraged by our phase I results on the ‘Goose’ gold project and Spearmint is fully funded to commence phase II operations in Newfoundland as we continue to define the highest priority drill targets on this project with work expected to commence shortly.”

The Phase I work program completed on the Company’s ‘Goose’ Gold project, directly bordering New Found Gold Corp.’s (NFG.v) Queensway project in Newfoundland (see map), has discovered positive Gold indicators. The Phase I rock and soil sampling program saw the collection of 185 soil samples and 21 rock samples across the ‘Goose’ Gold Property, located in central Newfoundland approximately1km northwest of New Found Gold Corp’s Keats Zone discovery, which returned 92.85g/t Au over 19.0m. The high-resolution soil grid had 50m spaced samples along 100m spaced lines and provided detailed geochemical coverage over the Property, representing the first known work on the asset to date. The results of the survey highlight three distinct gold-in-soil anomalies located in the northeast, southeast and western parts of the Property. Spearmint is particularly encouraged by strongly anomalous gold-in-soils results found along the western side of their Goose property, possibly indicating a new underlying gold zone, in this area of the Property. The anomaly straddling the western Property boundary is oriented in a North-South direction and has a non-continuous strike length of 600m and 250m. In addition, one select float grab sample of a mafic volcanic unit with stockwork quartz-carbonate veining throughout returned 973ppb gold.

Spearmint Achieves 83% Lithium Extraction from Preliminary Metallurgical Testing on its Lithium Clay Project in Clayton Valley, Nevada

By News

May 14, 2021 – Spearmint Resources Inc. (CSE: SPMT) (OTC Pink: SPMTD) (FSE: A2AHL5) (the “Company) is very pleased to announce that it has received preliminary metallurgical testing results on its 100%-owned Clayton Valley Lithium Clay Project in Nevada. The Company recently completed a 10-hole drill program that discovered lithium in every hole, achieving a 100%-success rate, directly bordering Cypress Development Corp (CYP-TSX.V).  Preliminary metallurgical results from McClelland Laboratories Inc. of Sparks, Nevada indicate that high extractions can be achieved by leaching with either sulfuric acid or hydrochloric acid. Preliminary results from a composite claystone sample indicate lithium extractions of 80% with a sulfuric acid addition of 500 kg/mt and 83% with a hydrochloric acid addition of 375 kg/mt. Further testing is being planned to optimize leaching conditions.

The results from the 13-holes drilled to date on Spearmint’s ‘Clayton Valley Lithium Clay’ project, combined with the preliminary metallurgical testing results, will contribute towards Spearmint’s Technical Report and potential maiden resource calculation being prepared by Stantec Consulting Ltd.  Management cautions that past results or discoveries on properties in proximity to Spearmint may not necessarily be indicative to the presence of mineralization on the Company’s properties.

Spearmint Engages Stantec for Resource Estimate and Technical Report on the Clayton Valley Lithium Clay Discovery in Nevada

By News

March 15, 2021 – Spearmint Resources Inc. (CSE: SPMT) (OTC Pink: SPMTD) (FSE: A2AHL5) (the “Company”) is very pleased to announce that the Company has engaged Stantec Consulting Ltd. (“Stantec”) to complete a potential maiden resource estimate and Technical Report for the Clayton Valley Lithium Clay Project in Nevada. The Technical Report will be prepared in accordance with the requirements of National Instrument 43-101. The Stantec Qualified Persons (Allan Turner, P.Geol. and Derek Loveday, P.Geo.) have direct experience in the Tonopah area, which includes visiting Albemarle Corp.’s (ALB-NYSE) Silver Peak mine and ioneer Ltd.’s (INR-ASX) Rhyolite Ridge Lithium-Boron Project, and completing a resource estimate and Technical Report for American Lithium Corp. (LI-TSX.v) on the TLC Lithium Project. Spearmint’s resource estimate and Technical Report are estimated to be completed by Stantec in approximately six to ten weeks.

Spearmint’s recently completed 10-hole drill program on its Clayton Valley Lithium Clay Project in Nevada discovered lithium in every hole, achieving a 100 percent success rate, directly bordering Cypress Development Corp (CYP-TSX.v).  Samples have been sent to McClelland Laboratories Inc. of Sparks, Nevada for the planned metallurgy on the lithium hosted claystone drilled on Spearmint’s property, with results expected to be received in approximately two to six weeks. The results from this recent phase of drilling, combined with assistance from the metallurgist, will enable Stantec to define a potential resource calculation. Management cautions that past results or discoveries on properties in proximity to Spearmint may not necessarily be indicative to the presence of mineralization on the Company’s properties.

Spearmint had strong, consistent drill results showing that the lithium is very near the surface which would be optimal versus deeper projects. Highlights from the 10-hole drill program included the following results (see map):  Assays from drill hole #5 intersected lithium values as high as 1840 parts per million lithium (ppm Li), averaging 846 ppm Li over 270 feet, including 35 feet averaging 1,343 ppm Li.  Hole #7 reported a high of 1,550 ppm Li, averaging 812 ppm Li over 310 feet, including 55 feet of 1,214 ppm Li.  Hole #8 returned a high of 1,280 ppm Li, averaging 723 ppm Li over 205 feet, including 1,036 ppm Li over 35 feet.  Hole #6 returned a high of 1490 ppm Li, averaging 966 ppm Li over 220 continuous feet.  Hole #9 returned a high value of 950 ppm Li from a total of 155 feet drilled. Hole #11 returned a high of 1490 ppm Li, averaging 817 ppm Li over 235 feet, including 110 feet averaging 1020 ppm Li, starting at 20 feet from surface. Hole #12 returned a high of 1370 ppm Li, averaging 1042 ppm Li over 105 feet, starting at 10 feet from surface. Hole #10 returned a high of 1360 ppm Li. Hole #13 returned a high of 1320 ppm Li, averaging 845 ppm Li over 200 feet, including 70 feet averaging 1026 ppm Li, starting at 5 feet from surface. Hole #14 returned a high of 1730 ppm Li, averaging 900 ppm Li over 225 feet, including 55 feet averaging 1046 ppm Li, starting at 15 feet from surface.

James Nelson President of Spearmint Resources stated, “It is important to note that the price per tonne of Lithium Carbonate, which is a critical ingredient in lithium-ion batteries for electric cars, has increased by over 100% since December 2020, achieving its highest level since 2018. We are very excited to have engaged a world-renowned firm like Stantec to determine a potential maiden resource estimate for our Clayton Valley Lithium Clay Project in Nevada, that directly borders Cypress Development Corp. (CYP-TSX.v). On February 9, 2021, Cypress announced a $17 million bought deal offering to further advance it’s Clayton Valley Project, which clearly illustrates the strong demand of investor interest in this world class lithium district. Spearmint’s recently completed drill program, that discovered lithium in all 10 out of 10 holes, was drilled directly into the shared blanket-like claystone deposit where Cypress already has total measured plus indicated resource estimates of 929.6 million tonnes averaging 1,062 ppm Li or 5.2 million tonnes LCE, announced on August 11, 2020.  Clayton Valley, Nevada continues to receive significant global attention as the premier lithium address in the USA hosting the only producing lithium deposit in North America. Lithium prices are rising on the insatiable demand in batteries for Electric Vehicles and we see no sign of that hyper growth abating this decade, therefore causing a massive demand for ethically sourced, domestic lithium production.  Spearmint is right now in the best financial shape in the company’s history with zero need or expectation to raise any money in the foreseeable future.  We are moving forward at a rapid rate right now at a time when demand for lithium is approaching all-time highs.  Management is confident about the short and long-term future of Spearmint.”
