ALASKA ENERGY METALS COMPLETES HELICOPTER-
BORNE VTEM MAX GEOPHYSICAL SURVEY AND SOIL
GEOCHEMICAL SURVEY AT THE ANGLIERS -
BELLETERRE PROJECT, QUEBEC, CANADA
Highlights:
• 1,568 line kilometers of airborne VTEM Max electromagnetic geophysical
survey completed.
• 4,971 soil samples collected.
• Rock sampling and prospecting carried out.
• Results expected in the fourth quarter of 2024.
VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA, September 20, 2024 – Alaska Energy Metals
Corporation (TSX-V: AEMC, OTCQB: AKEMF) (“Alaska Energy Metals,” “AEMC,” or
the “Company”) is pleased to announce the completion of a helicopter-borne
Versatile Time Domain Electromagnetic (“VTEM”) Max survey over its 100% owned
Angliers-Belleterre project (“Angliers”) in Quebec, Canada, and a large soil
geochemical survey. Prospecting and rock sampling were also completed. The
purpose of the exploration program was to identify targets that may represent
valuable metallic mineralization, particularly nickel–copper deposits. Results of the
soil survey and VTEM survey are anticipated to be received during the fourth
quarter of 2024. This exploration work was funded from a flow-through financing
completed in December 2023.
The VTEM survey was completed by Ontario-based Geotech Ltd. and consisted of
1,568 line-kilometers flown at 100-meter line spacing (Figure 1). In addition, a 4,971-
sample soil program was completed across the same area as the VTEM survey
(Figure 1). The soil collection, prospecting, and rock sampling programs were

completed by Quebec-based Breakaway Exploration Management. The purpose of
the VTEM survey is to define zones of conductive anomalies that may indicate
metallic sulfide mineralization. Soil sampling was used to detect for the presence of
metal ions that may reflect the valuable metallic mineral deposits in bedrock
beneath. Coincident electromagnetic anomalies and soil anomalies represent
compelling targets for drill testing.
Alaska Energy Metals Chief Geoscientist Gabe Graf commented: “We are pleased that
Geotech and Breakaway have safely, responsibly, and efficiently carried out modern
geophysical and geochemical surveys at our Angliers project in Quebec. We are eagerly
awaiting survey results, which will be used in combination with planned geologic
mapping. We hope that the results of our work will unlock multiple drill targets for
testing in 2025.”
VTEM MAX SURVEY
Geotech’s VTEM survey is excellent for locating discrete, conductive anomalies as
well as mapping lateral and vertical variations in resistivity. Full waveform recording
is employed to achieve very clean early-time measurements to effectively resolve
near-surface structures. This survey includes a high-sensitivity cesium
magnetometer for mapping geologic structures and lithology. The radar altimeter
has an accuracy of approximately one meter using a real-time GPS Navigation
System providing an in-flight accuracy up to 1.5 meters.
