Q Precious & Battery Metals Refines Targeting for Diamond Drilling La Corne South Project, Val d’Or Quebec
Q Precious and Battery Metals Corp. ("QMET" or the "Company") (CSE:QMET) is pleased to provide an update on targeting for diamond drilling at their La Corne South project located north of Val d'Or, Quebec.
As previously summarized (November 2024), drill holes that have been completed to date were designed to test coincident TDEM conductors with magnetic highs. As reported in previous news releases, results from hole 24LCS-01 indicate robust VMS-style mineralization containing elevated copper, zinc, silver, and gold.
Continued drilling is planned for early 2025. The company's geologic team has continued to investigate the geophysical survey data, including 3-dimensional modeling of the TDEM survey results. The successful drilling of the TDEM anomaly at holes 24LCS-01 to 24LCS-03 indicates that these targets are of primary interest for further testing. The geophysics shows a cluster of TDEM anomalies further to the south. In particular, TDEM anomalies EMG-1 and EMG-2 have been targeted for diamond drill testing. Maxwell Plate Modeling of these anomalies using Mircomine software indicates that EMG-1 and EMG-2 may be located within the same volcanic horizon that strikes general north to northwest and dips to the east, with EMG-1 being at depth beneath EMG-2 (see inserted figure). This makes for a very attractive drill target for initial testing planned for this winter.

The geophysics indicates a possible corridor of magnetic and electromagnetic anomalies over a two kilometer strike. The corridor is open to the northwest where surveying has yet to be completed, and the company plans to extend the geophysical surveying in that direction once exploration resumes.
The company is looking forward to receiving results from holes 24LCS-02 and 24LCS-03 which will aid in exploration planning.
Explo-Logik Inc, located in Val d'Or, is managing exploration including core logging and sampling at their facility. A total of 278 samples of core from the first three holes were directly delivered by Explo-Logik staff to the ALS laboratory in Val d'Or, Quebec. The samples underwent ALS ME-MS61L process that uses 4-acid digestion of pulverized samples followed by mass spectrometer detection for 48 elements, and process Au-ICP21 that analyzes for gold, platinum, and palladium using fire assay. For quality assurance and control Explo-Logik inserted blanks, standards, and duplicates at one insert every 10 samples.
Q PRECIOUS & BATTERY METALS CORP
QMET exploration programs undertaken in Quebec are supervised by Dr. Mathieu Piché, OGQ, with office located north of Val d'Or. He is also a Q Battery Metals company director. The company has 100% interest in mineral claims within Quebec, targeting critical and precious metals. Projects include the La Corne SouthVMS Project, McKenzie East Gold property, as well as the Pontax Lithium and Versant rare earth elements (REE) properties.
