Rock Edge Superb Lake Lithium Project Drills 7.1 Metres of Visible Spodumene
Vancouver, British Columbia, August 10, 2023: Rock Edge Resources Ltd. (the “Company” or
“Rock Edge”) (CSE: REDG) is pleased to announce the following update on its initial drill program
focused along strike of Dyke #1 (discovery outcrop) . at the Superb Lake Property, situated in
northwestern Ontario. Rock Edge has an option to earn a 70% interest in the Superb Lake lithium
project from Medaro Mining Corp.
The Ombabika Group Inc. (100% First Nations owned) has been contracted to drill 4 holes along
strike of Dyke #1. The company plans to test the orientation and thickness of the dyke. Due to
slight alteration and deformation of the dyke, seen in the 2022 exploration program, it is difficult
to estimate the true strike and dip on the surface. The 4 holes will provide the company with
enough detail to develop a 3D orientation of the dyke and any parallel zones. This will be used to
develop a full-scale drill program and provide compliant intersections of lithium mineralization,
capturing both contacts, which was not achieved in 2022. Due to permitting constraints, the
contractor is using a lightweight ATV portable JKS-15 drill to produce IAW-size core 26mm. The
drill size and core size have allowed the company to conduct exploration and the first-ever drill
holes targeting lithium on the project, which has seen diamond drilling for gold, copper, and zinc
since 1959.
• SPB-23-01 (Az165/ Dip -45) intersected 7.1 meters of spodumene-albite pegmatite. Visual
spodumene estimate is 12% for the entire interval , including 2.1 meters of 20% coarse -
grained spodumene. This hole is located 60m inland from the initial discovery point on
Superb Lake.
• SPB-23-02 (Az165/ Dip -70) failed to intersect pegmatite . This hole was pulled back to
intersect the same cross -section at 20m deeper than hole 1. Most likely , the orientation
of the dyke is more vertical than initially mapped.
• SPB-23-03 (Dip 89) is currently drilling. This target is a sub-vertical hole to define hanging-
wall contact and orientation of the dyke , as our second hole did not intersect the dyke.
This hole will also give us insight into the alteration of spodumene at depth and a vertical
profile of spodumene mineralization (aimed at 30 -40m depth) , as minor spodumene
alteration was noted on surface in 2022.
• SPB-23-04: planned another 60-meter-long strike. Based on a recent discovery at the end
of July 2023, a new parallel zone 10m southeast (3-4 meters wide) was identified by the
ground crew.
Quality Assurance / Quality Control
All intersections reported are based on drilled widths and have not been converted to the true
width. The drill core is being logged and sampled at the core shack using a rock saw at Pleson
Geoscience core shack located in Nipigon, ON. The samples will be bagged and tagged using best
practices and will be delivered to an independent Canadian certified laboratory for sample
preparation and analysis for lithium and other elements of interest.
