CAT STRATEGIC METALS COMPLETES DRONE MAG SURVEY AND UNDERTAKES

AIRBORNE GEOPHYSICAL PROGRAM ON BURNTLAND PROJECT IN NEW

BRUNSWICK TO IDENTIFY DRILL TARGETS

VANCOUVER, BC October 20, 2021 CAT Strategic Metals Corporation (CSE: CAT) (“CAT” or

the "Company") announces that it has engaged EAGLE Geophysique Inc. (“EAGLE”) to perform

a geophysical VLF-EM, DTM and Mag survey designed to identify structures that would allow for

establishment of a diamond drill program expected to be conducted prior to the end of the current

2021 calendar and fiscal year.

This ongoing survey, known as a Quadri-Mag, is the latest generation in high precision airborne

equipment. The ultra-wide horizontal and vertical gradient allows mapping of subtle changes in

rock properties. The platform is towed under a helicopter for maximum ground proximity. Its 10

meter horizontal and 3 meter vertical gradient enable it to locate hydrothermal alteration similar

to narrow quartz veining, kimberlite dykes and sills and other geological structural features. The

passive EM equipment is capable of detecting conductors at depths greater than 1 kilometer. By

measuring naturally occurring EM fields (AFMAG - audio frequencies magnetics) both discrete

conductors and bulk changes in resistivity and conductivity common in geologic contacts and

structures can be detected. This innovation will allow to collect and measure disseminated

sulphides and important alteration systems. The geophysical program consists of a total of 970

linear Km’s over a survey area of 47.55 square Kilometers.

The Quadri-Mag can combine five industry-leading geophysical technologies within the same

survey and is the logical extension of an initial drone airborne magnetic survey which was

conducted in July and August of this year. The results of the drone survey confirmed a variety of

conclusions from historical work programs dating back to the late 1960’s. The relationship that

was predicted with the high mag and the existing mineral occurrences is very well correlated and

provides a number of significant targets for exploration (see Figure 1).

CAT’s Chairman & CEO, Robert Rosner, stated “We are very pleased to undertake the airborne

geophysical survey on the Burntland property that will significantly add to the data set we

currently have. Once the data has been reviewed and interpreted, we will be able to conclusively

determine the best target areas for our diamond drilling program, which we hope to have

completed by the end of the year.”
