Renforth Intersects Surface Battery Metals Mineralization in Lalonde Channeling
Renforth Resources Inc. (CSE – RFR) (OTCQB– RFHRF) (FSE-9RR) (“Renforth” or the “Company”) is pleased to
advise shareholders that channels cut within the 3 stripped trenches at Lalonde, which are being undercut in
the current drill program, did intersect surface battery metals mineralization as measured in the field and
confirmed by the assay laboratory.
In addition to this, Renforth wishes to advise shareholders that 3 drill holes, Prop5 (SUR-22-30), Prop4 (SUR-22-
31) and Prop2 (SUR-22-31), have been completed at Lalonde in the ongoing Surimeau drill program, successfully
intersecting the surface mineralization in the undercutting drill hole. Each hole drilled starting in the sediments
to the north, drilled through the mineralized/ultramafic package to the point of contact with the sediments in
the south. As each hole intersected the complete package, a second southern or undercut hole was not
required (as previously planned), therefore, those metres will be used to the east, based upon the analysis of
the 2021 geophysical survey data which Renforth has just received, inserted below.

Nickel Values in Trenching
In each of the 3 trenches stripped at Lalonde one channel was cut and sampled, when accessible.
Unfortunately, sample gaps occur in Trench 9, within the best mineralized zone, potentially artificially breaking
up the mineralized interval due to access issues, namely flooding with water making it impossible to obtain
samples.
It is Renforth's interpretation that, in each of the 3 channels cut within the trenches that are perpendicular to
the magnetic anomaly at Lalonde, each surface mineralized "shoulder" of the anomaly was intersect ed,
successfully yielding ultramafic nickel mineralization.
Geophysical Analysis
Renforth commissioned an analysis and interpretation of the geophysical data obtained during the airborne
survey which Renforth flew over the Victoria mineralized system and a portion of the Lalonde mineralized
system. One of the products of this analysis was a conductivity map, showing conductive anomalies within the
overall magnetic anomaly at Victoria and Lalonde. This sort of analysis is interesting as, for example, copper is
conductive but not magnetic, the magnetic anomaly that stretches over ~20km at Victoria, and ~9km at
Lalonde, depicts the ultramafic intrusive, which we know to be carrying nickel/cobalt and some amount of
PGEs. Additionally, while nickel is conductive it is much less conductive than copper, it is reasonable to assume
that copper would perform better in an analysis of conductivity. Within the location of the ultramafic we do see
a graphitic shale that is copper/zinc bearing, along with calc-silicate alteration carrying the same mineralization,
however, the magnetic anomaly does not reflect these structures, there is potential that the conductivity map
does. We will be testing this hypothesis.
Surimeau Conductivity Map (Decay Constant with Picked Anomalies)
The map above locates the stripping (at Victoria and Lalonde) and the drilling (at Victoria) to date relative to the
conductive anomalies, along with the proposed drill holes. The receipt of this information has caused Renforth's
geologists to modify planned, and to add, drill holes targeting the conductive anomaly. It is interesting to note
that the stripping, and a lot of the drilling, to date at both Victoria and Lalonde, all of which intersected the
ultramafic and some amount of nickel mineralization, has largely missed the conductive anomalies.
Zoomed in Lalonde Detail
Zooming in on the Lalonde section of the map indicates that the conductivity anomaly is strongest where the
road intersects Lalonde, this suggests that the stripping and drilling to date was too far west, with regard to
conductivity and potential copper mineralization. However, despite the lack of a conductive anomaly, nickel
mineralization has been intersected on surface and in drill holes in the area worked. As Renforth works at
Lalonde, which has little to almost no useful historical information to guide exploration, it is becoming clear that
while the mineralization is very similar to Victoria it is not identical, with possibly more copper/zinc intersected
in the current drilling than at Victoria.

About Renforth
Renforth is focused on Quebec's newest battery metals district, our wholly owned ~330 km2 Surimeau District
Property, which hosts several known areas of polymetallic "battery metals" mineralization, each with various
levels of exploration, as well as a significant amount of unexplored ground. Victoria West has been drilled over a
strike length of 2.2km, within a 5km long mineralized structure, proving nickel, copper, zinc and cobalt
mineralization, in the western end of a 20km magnetic anomaly. The Huston target, during initial
reconnaissance, resulted in a grab sample grading 1.9% Ni, 1.38% Cu, 1170 ppm Co and 4 g/t Ag. Additionally,
the Lalonde, Surimeau and Colonie Targets are all polymetallic mineralized occurrences which, along with
various gold showings, comprise the areas of potential of this NSR free property.
In addition to the Surimeau District battery metals property Renforth wholly owns the Parbec Gold deposit, a
surface gold deposit contiguous to the Canadian Malartic Mine property in Malartic, Quebec. In 2020/21
Renforth completed 15,569m of drilling which successfully twinned certain histori c holes, filled in gaps in the
resource model with newly discovered gold mineralization and extended mineralization deeper. Based upon the
success of this significant drill program the Company considers the spring 2020 MRE, with a resource estimate
of 104,000 indicated ounces of gold at a grade of 1.78 g/t Au and 177,000 inferred ounces of gold at a grade of
1.78 g/t Au to be out of date. With the new data gained Renforth will undertake to complete the first ever
structural study of the mineralization at Parbec, as well as additional total metallic assay work in order to better
contextualize the nugget effect on the gold mineralization.
Renforth also holds the Nixon-Bartleman property, west of Timmins Ontario, with gold present on surface over
a strike length of ~500m.
