Exploration Update on the

North Elko Lithium Project, Nevada

London, Ontario – Peloton Minerals Corporation (“ Peloton” or the “Company”) (CSE

Symbol: PMC; OTCQB Symbol: PMCCF) is pleased to report that a multi-faceted exploration

program underway at the 100% owned North Elko Lithium Project (NELP) in northeastern Nevada

has identified an area approximately 25 kilometers square that contains anomalous lithium in an

alkaline paleolake basin environment of deposition (the “Target Area”) . This environment is the

same as that of the adjacent property of Surge Battery Metals Inc. (Surge) where a significant

lithium deposit has been found within clay layers in an alkaline paleolake basin environment.

Geologic mapping suggests the Target Area sampled at surface is likely higher in the stratigraphy

than the lithium clay layers identified on Surge’s property beside NELP, and that drilling is

warranted to test the potential of clay layers below surface. A cross section published by Surge in

its July 23, 2024 press release shows the clay layers dipping toward NELP, and projects those

layers to within 1 .0 to 1.5 kilometers of NELP.

In addition to geologic mapping and soil geochemistry across the property, over 300 samples were

analyzed using X -Ray Diffraction (XRD). This technique identified over 100 mineral species,

many of which are formed by alteration of tephra in the paleolake-basin environment (a historic

lake or caldera) and include several lithium-bearing minerals such as hectorite and fluorohectorite.

Surprisingly, the presence of detrital lithium-bearing magmatic type minerals such as tavorite,

amblygonite, and others was also identified although further study will be necessary to determine

potential implications.

The next phase of exploration will be to employ a surface geophysical technique (tTEM and ERT)

to map the depth and widths of potential underlying clay layers , a technique that has been

successfully used by Surge. This work would be followed by shallow packsack drilling for near

surface targets or with a larger drilling rig for targets below 20 feet.

Mr. Edward (Ted) Ellwood , President and CEO commented, “We are pleased with the positive

results achieved to date. This great start shows we are hunting in the right environment, and we

are excited about commencing the next phase of our exploration program .”
