Musk Metals Corp. announced it will start its fifth exploration program for Phase 1, on its 100% owned "Elon'' lithium project in Quebec. The survey will use a motorized auger drill to sample the till below the surface sediments.

The purpose of the survey is to better define the dispersion of the plume in the till column in three dimensions (3D). Permitting and communication with the stakeholders is underway to start the work phase during the upcoming summer. The survey will allow the Company to follow up on till anomalies previously defined.

The survey will also inspect multiple geophysical targets located on the Property. The targets include suspected pegmatite dykes that were interpreted from magnetic and lidar surveys. Previously, trenching was unable to reach the bedrock to test geophysics anomalies on the Property.

The drill for till survey will allow to better define the till anomalies and their possible sources beneath under surficial cover. This will then allow to define a second diamond drill hole program to test the new anomalies and geophysics targets that are up-ice from any till anomalies. The till will be drilled using an auger drill equipped with a split spoon sampler.

The Company is expected to test approximately 20 holes in a first phase and will permit many holes to allow flexibility during the survey. Total overburden thickness in the area is approximately 15 to 25m deep, based on overburden measurements from the 2022 campaign drillholes and historical data. The hollow core is expected to reach the basal till material before reaching bedrock where it will collect material within the split spoon sampler.

All the till column is planned to be sampled. The sampling stations are approximately 40m apart and perpendicular to the glacial flow. Multiple access points are located on the southern part of the Property and are expected to be used to place the auger drill.
