About Surge Battery Metals Inc.

About the Nevada North Lithium Project
The Company owns a 100% interest, without any royalties, in the Nevada North Lithium
Project, consisting of 243 mineral claims, located in the Granite Range southeast of Jackpot, about 73 km
north-northeast of Wells, Elko County, Nevada. The first round of drilling, completed in October 2022,
identified a strongly mineralized zone of lithium-bearing clays occupying a strike length of almost 1,620
meters from drillhole NN2205 in the north to drill hole NN2208 in the south. The full thickness of the
mineralized horizons are not well determined since the holes were mostly sited along strike on a north-
south alignment. However, the apparent thickness is at least 400 metres, supported by highly anomalous
soil values indicating potential for the clay horizons to be much thicker. The potential for a significant
lithium deposit are illustrated by the results of drillhole NN2207 which intersected the thickest intervals
of lithium-rich claystone encountered to date; a total of 120.4 metres (395 feet) averaging 3,943 ppm
lithium in four zones. Additionally, drillhole NN2208 had the strongest downhole individual sample of
5,950 ppm lithium at between 45 and 50 feet (13.72 and 15.24 metres) depth. The average lithium
content within all near surface clay zones intersected in 2022 drilling, applying a 1000 ppm cut-off, was
3254 ppm. (Press release March 29,2023)
