Musk Metals Announces Results of a Prospection Follow up and New Geophysical Interpretations ON Its 100% Owned “Elon” Lithium Project in Quebec, Canada
MUSK METALS ANNOUNCES RESULTS OF A PROSPECTION FOLLOW UP AND NEW
GEOPHYSICAL INTERPRETATIONS ON ITS 100% OWNED “ELON” LITHIUM PROJECT IN
QUEBEC, CANADA
March 4th, 2022, VANCOUVER, BC – Musk Metals Corp. (“Musk Metals” or the “Company”) (CSE: MUSK)
(OTC: EMSKF) (FSE: 1I30) is pleased to announce it has received the final geochemical results from its follow up
rock survey on till anomalies identified during its Phase Two (2) exploration program on the 100% owned ‘’Elon
Lithium Property’’ (the ‘’Property’’). In early 2022, the Company also mandated Dynamic Discovery Geoscience to
complete a Property wide geophysical interpretation. This interpretation along with as say results allowed the
Company to define multiple targets showing potential for lithium discoveries that will be subject to trenching in 2022.
Rock and till sampling 2021
A first site visit was conducted in July 2021 and returned 29 till samples and 44 rock samples from boulders and
outcrops. A follow up survey was completed in November 2021 and consisted of systematic rock sampling of visible
outcrop and digging of pits for pebble and boulder sampling in the areas with low outcrops coverage.
The rock sampling follow-up covers the southern part of the Property and also got close to the interpreted intrusion
located in the center of the Property. The objective was to trace mineralization evidence from rocks and boulders of
the previously prospected area in order to associate the source of the two (2) discovered till anomalies to the type of
host rock it originates from, and its correlated mineralogy and alterations.
As seen on Figure 1, a large area to the south shows numerous lithium, tantalum and yttrium anomalies in outcrops.
To the southwest is a small outcrop with several lithium values above 60ppm. Near the center of the Property, close
to the contact with the interpreted intrusion is a sample anomalous in lithium and tantalum in an outcrop.

Geophysical interpretation (2022)
Those anomalies might be originating from lithium fluids that could have resulted in pegmatite dyke swarms, which
could be the host of sizable lithium mineralization. However, the Company has yet to find those pegmatite dykes to
investigate them. In consequence, it mandated Dynamic Discoveries Geosciences to review the historical geophysics
work completed on the Property in order to better define targets for exploration. The review included the following
data: A high resolution heliborne magnetic survey completed by the Company in 2021 (see news release dates April
26, 2021); Lidar (topography) and DEM. A comparison of the data we have with the Quebec Lithium (located 600m
away) mine’s geophysical signal was also done in order to better define the Property potential.
The review provides the following information:
- At the Quebec Lithium Mine, the mineralization is hosted in pegmatite dykes swarms. Topographic (Lidar)
observations on the Property appear to show surface dykes, mostly in the southern part of the Property. The presence
of dykes near previously identified till anomalies are good targets to look for mineralization;
-The mineralized dykes are cross cutting intrusions at the Mine and some topographic features similar to dykes are
also cross cutting the intrusion on we have on the Property; indicating a similar relation between the possible dykes
and the intrusion;
- The magnetic context (low magnetic intensity within high magnetic areas) appears to be the same as at Quebec
Lithium Mine. Based on magnetic lows and total horizontal derivative, dykes swarms might be present to the west of
the intrusion and to the south of the Property;
- Based on magnetic lows and total horizontal derivative, the possible inner and outer contours with the intrusion
were better constrained, allowing a better targeting of the contact zone of the intrusion;
Based on that information, trenches were proposed to explore targets beneath the till and clay surficial deposits. They
would intercept interpreted dykes and be within low magnetic areas, similar to those presents to the south. All of the
trenches also happen to be within the influence zone of anomalous soil samples (up -ice), which also increase their
potential to host mineralization.

Geochemical Anomalies.
The rock sampling results and geophysical reinterpretations will be used to determine targets for a trenching survey,
following which a drill program could be completed depending upon results of the trenching program. Permitting
will start in the following week and the Company will report when the planning of its trenching program is complete.
The Property
The Elon Property is strategically located in Abitibi, Qc at approximately 600 meters northeast of the North American
Lithium Project, formerly known as Mine Québec Lithium, which produced over 907,000 tons of material at 1.40%
Li2O between 1955 and 1965 (Boily et al, 1989).
