SLAM CEO TALKING ABOUT MINE ROAD
ACQUISITION AT PDAC
CORE INTERVALS TO 14.51% ZINC, 5.86% LEAD, 0.67% COPPER AND
139.9 G/T SILVER
For Immediate Release, March 4, 2024
Miramichi, New Brunswick ‐ SLAM Exploration Ltd. (TSXV-SXL) (“SLAM” or the
“Company”) announces that CEO Mike Taylor is doing a presentation at The Atlantic Edge
Investors Program at P DAC at 3:00 PM Tuesday, March 5 about SLA M’s Mine Road zinc
copper silver acquisition reported in a news release September 6, 2023. The Mine Road project is
host to 6 volcanic massive sulphide (“VMS”) occurrences spread over a 9.555 hectare group of
mineral claims adjacent to the former producing Heath Steele mine in the mineral-rich Bathurst
Mining Camp (“BMC”) of northern New Brunswick. For more information on the Atlantic Edge
Program, click the Atlantic Edge Investors Program .
Historic Mine Road Drilling: Diamond drill hole IL2014 -003 cored a 9 metre interval grading
14.51% zinc, 5.86% lead, 0.67% copper and 139.9 g/t silver on the Railroad zone. Diamond drill
hole IL2018-01 intersected 7.0 meters of 0.9% copper on the Roche T rend, 5 kilometres
southwest of the R ailroad Zone. This drilling data is a small sample of the wealth of data
resulting from $1,448,000 in exploration expenditures applied to the Mine Road project during
the past 1 2 years. Current assessment work credits of $428,776 are available for future claim
renewals.
Drill-Ready VMS Targets At Mine Road : The Railroad and Roche zones are open to test for
potential extensions at depth and along strike. Other targets include the Island Lake, Captain
West, Sandburn Brook and Brunsman VMS occurrences along with a number of untested
airborne conductors and magnetic anomalies.
Infrastructure: The Mine Road project is located on the Mine Road (Route 430) which
connects the former Heath Steele mine to the city of Miramichi 60 kilometres to the southeast.
The claims are accessed from this paved road and a series of logging roads. Electric power is
available from lines that connect Heath Steele to the New Brunswick power grid.
Mine Road Project: SLAM has acquired 3 additional mineral claims s ince acquisition of the
Mine Road project. The expanded project now covers 9,555 hectare s of mineral potential
adjacent to the former producing Heath Steele mine property where 21 M tonnes were mined
2
from 1957 to 1996. A total of 2,330 million pounds of zinc, 833 million pounds of lead, 446
million pounds of copper and 45 million ounces of silver were processed. (For reference, these
numbers are derived from: McCutcheon, S.R. (compiler) 1997; Geology and massive sulphides
of the Bathurst Camp, New Brunswick; Geological Association of Canada - Mineralogical
Association of Canada, Joint Annual Meeting, Ottawa ’97, Field Trip B7, Guidebook, 85 p.)
About SLAM Exploration Ltd: SLAM holds a large portfolio of mineral claim holdings in the
mineral-rich province of New Brunswick. The flagship is SLAM’s wholly owned Menneval gold
project in northern New Brunswick. SLAM has discovered multiple gold- bearing veins and
previously reported gold bearing core intervals including 162.5 g/t gold over 0.2 m and 56.90 g/t
gold over 0.5 m (news releases December 13, 2021 and Nov 22, 2022) The Company has also
reported significant gold discoveries in southern New Brunswick on its Jake Lee and Highway
projects in the vicinity of the Clarence Stream gold deposit where Galway Metals Inc. is working
on a 2.3 M ounce gold deposit . The Highway project has demonstrated polymetallic potential
with 10 known mineral occurrences that include zinc, silver, copper, cobalt, molybdenum and tin
as well as gold.
The Company recently added the Mine Road zinc silver project to its base metal portfolio in the
mineral rich Bathurst Mining Camp of New Brunswick. Previous workers drilled massive
sulphide zones including with 2 massive sulphide intervals in hole IL 2014-003 with a 9 metre
core interval grading 14.51% zinc, 5.86% lead, 0.67% copper and 139.9 g/t silver and a 3 metre
interval grading 6.57% zinc, 2.78% lead, 0.46% copper, and 68.1 g/t silver.
The Company holds NSR royalties and expects additional cash and share payments on the
Wedge copper zinc project. SLAM also holds NSR royalties and may receive addition cash and
share payments on the Ramsay, Reserve Creek and Opikeigen gold projects.
