Genius Metals Starts Drilling on the Trans-Taïga Showing at Sakami

MONTRÉAL, QUÉBEC, CANADA — (February 16th, 2022) - Genius Metals Inc. (TSXV: GENI, OTCQB:

GNSMF) (“Genius Metals” or the “Company”) is pleased to report the start of a 500m winter

drilling program on the Trans -Taïga showing at Sakami located in the James Bay Territory of

Québec. The intent is to assess the extension at depth of the gold mineralization discovered at

surface through rock and channel sampling completed in the Langelier Complex during previous

prospecting campaigns. The Company reported significant gold mineralization at surface including

a channel sample returning 2.62 g/t Au over 7.40 m (including 14.2 g/t over 1m) and rock samples

that yielded up to 6.10 g/t Au and 1.80 % Cu (see Genius’ press-release of November 16th, 2021).

The mineralization occurs in association with rusty/pyritized quartz veins and veinlets possibly

associated with a shear zone in a tonalitic orthogneiss. The drill core will be transported to

Laurentia Exploration’s core shack in Jonquière, Québec where it will be logged, cut and sent for

multi-elements analysis to a certified laboratory.

The company intends to explore the newly acquired ground in the Lang elier Complex through

overburden stripping, extensive rock grab and channel sampling and soil/till geochemistry during

the upcoming summer. A high-resolution heliborne MAG survey was recently completed over the

new claims.
