CULLINAN METALS PROVIDES UPDATE ON EXPLORATION
PROGRAMS IN ONTARIO AND QUEBEC LITHIUM PROPERTIES
Vancouver, B.C. – September 2 6, 2023 - Cullinan Metals Corp. (CSE: CMT) (OTCQB: CMTNF) (FWB: 7KO)
("Cullinan" or the "Company") is pleased to provide an update on the progress of its ongoing exploration work
being carried out o n the Ontario and Quebec lithium properties (the “ Properties”). The field prospecting,
geological mapping and sampling program ha ve identified several pegmatites which are being mapped and
sampled. I nitial scanning of samples is being carried out by using a l aser-induced breakdown spectroscopy
(“LIBS”) analyzer in the field which has recently emerged as a tool for geochemical analysis outside the
traditional laboratory setting . H igher lithium value samples are being prepared for detailed analysis in a
Canadian Certified Laboratory. Two helicopters from Great Lakes Helicopter Company of Breslau, Ontario, have
been chartered on an as-and-when-required basis to support the current fieldwork program.
Highlights
Quebec Properties
Exploration work on the Wells Lake, VN properties in Val d’Or region and James Bay Lithium (JBL) properties
has been completed. Out of these properties, JBL stands out the best in terms of the availability of pegmatites
and its favorable geological characteristics for lithium mineralization . A total number of 55 pegmatites have
been mapped on the JBL property, ranging in width from 20 cm to 5m and rarely up to 10m wide, and 1m to
50m and rarely up to 200m long. The property claims are spread over a large area. Only the most prominent
ridges could be visited and prospected for lithium during the current working period. There were many small
and low-lying outcrops which could not be prospected due to time constraints. JBL has the right geology for the
occurrence of spodumene and requires more detailed and systematic rock and soil sampling, along with some
geophysical work. The field team is currently working on James Bay Spodume (JBS) property.
Ontario Properties
Exploration work on the Flower Falls, East Haig and West Haig, Flash Lake North, and Lilly P ad has been
completed. Several pegmatite outcrops were mapped and sampled to check their favourability for lithium
mineralization. The field team is currently working on the Dory Aerial-Lake and Wakeman properties. A total of
99 rock samples and 23 soil samples have been collected to date, out of which 27 rock samples were shipped
to Activation Laboratories in Dryden, Ontario for analysis. Nine hundred ninety-three LIBS scanning tests were
conducted on rock samples to assess their favourability for hosting lithium mineralization and selected samples
for further testing at the laboratory.
The Program
During the current phase of exploration (“Phase One Exploration”) , two experienced field teams have been
deployed to conduct field prospecting activities across the Ontario and Quebec Lithium properties. This process
involves a systematic examination of the multiple fertile granitic pegmatite dykes . Furthermore, pegmatite
sampling and trenching are also carried out to assess the presence and distribution of lithium -bearing
pegmatites within each of the property. This crucial step will provide valuable insights into the mineralogy and
2
lithium content of the identified pegmatites , aiding in the development of an extensive understanding of the
property's lithium exploration potential for further work. Initial scanning of samples is being carried out by using
LIBS.
Marc Morin, CEO of Cullinan, expressed his satisfaction with the progress of the exploration work programs,
stating. “We are very excited with the current exploration work outcome. The field teams have successfully
identified several pegmatites on these properties. This program will help the Company to evaluate the lithium
potential of each property and to prioritize our efforts for further work.”
About the Properties
Ontario Properties
The Ontario lithium properties which include Dory Aerial – Lake, East Haig, West Haig, Flower Fall, Lily Pad and
Flash Lake North properties, are located in a lithium-favorable geological setting of northwestern Ontario in the
vicinity of the Georgia Lake, Mavis Lake, Separation Rapids, GT1’s Root Lake lithium projects in the
northwestern Ontario.
Quebec Properties
The Quebec lithium properties are located mainly in two prolific geological regions: a) the James Bay area ( Mia
1 or James Bay Pegmatite and Mia 2 or James Bay Spodume properties) where several new lithium discoveries
have been made alongside the historical deposits; and b) in the Val d’Or region (VS and VN properties) located
within the Archean Preissac-Lacorne batholith, a geological region with known lithium deposits, prospects and
an existing lithium mine (North American Lithium or NAL).

The Company also wishes to announce that it has closed a non -brokered private placement of one hundred
thousand units (each, a “Unit”) for gross proceeds of fifty-two thousand dollars. (the “Offering”).
Each Unit consists of one common share in the capital of the Company (each, a “ Share”) and one transferable
common share purchase warrant (each whole warrant, a “ Warrant”). Each Warrant entitles the holder to
acquire one Share at a price of seventy cents per Share for a period of sixty months from the date of closing of
the Offering. In the event that the Shares trade at a price of one dollar and above for ten consecutive trading
days, the Company may, at its option, accelerate the Warrant expiry date by providing notice (the “Acceleration
Notice”) to the Warrant holders by way of a news release that the Warrants will expire on the thirtieth day
from the date of the Acceleration Notice.
There is no finders fee paid in connection with the Offering. The net proceeds of the Off ering will be used for
working capital and general corporate purposes.
