SLAM CLOSES NEW LITHIUM PROJECT

ROAD ACCESSIBLE LITHIUM CLAIMS IN NORTHWESTERN ONTARIO

For Immediate Release, November 7, 2023

Miramichi, New Brunswick ‐ SLAM Exploration Ltd. (TSXV-SXL) announces that further to

the news release dated October 12, 2023 , it has closed the option agreement dated October 11,

2023, to acquire a 100% interest in the Ear Falls lithium project, located in the vicinity of a new

lithium discovery by Beyond Lithium Inc. (BY on CSE) near Ear Falls in northwestern Ontario.

Project Highlights:

• New Lithium Discoveries: The project comprises 230 claim units covering 4,700 hectares

in 2 claim groups respectively located 10 kilometres (km) northeast and 12 km south of a

new 1,000 metre long spodumene bearing pegmatite zone with grab samples up to 4.54%

Li2O reported by Beyond Lithium on their Ear Falls Project.

• Mineral Trend: Beyond Lithium also reports “ Favorable geology and a highly

fractionated sample located 2 km northeast of the new discovery spodumene zone .” This

suggests a trend toward SLAM’s northeast claims shown on map. Beyond Lithium reported

on October 23rd that it was launching a trenching and drilling program to test this lithium

discovery.

• Regional Lithium Play: The Ear Falls lithium project is underlain by volcano-sedimentary

and intrusive rocks transected by a splay of the Lake St. Joseph Fault, a regional structure

that cuts through the Root Bay area where Green Technology Metals (ASX-GT1) is drilling

to expand a JORC compliant resource on the Root Bay an d McCombe deposits. Pioneer

Lithium (ASX-PLN) recently announced a new pegmatite discovery on its adjacent Root

Bay claims.

• Infrastructure: Both claim groups are accessible through a network of logging roads and

secondary roads off Highway 105 that connects the mining town of Red Lake to the Trans-

Canada highway.

The Optionors: The Ear Falls Lithium Agreement was signed by Perry English and Gravel

Ridge Resources Ltd., jointly, the Optionors along with the CEO of SLAM.

SLAM President Mike Taylor states , “The new lithium discovery of 4.54% Li2O by Beyond

Lithium is very significant. The geological setting is similar to Root Bay where Green Technology

Metals recently announced drilling to expand its lithium deposits . SLAM wishes to thank the

Optionors for this opportunity and is planning an exploration program at Ear Falls. The Company

intends to continue its aggressive pursuit of new exploration opportunities especially in the critical

element space.”

and it has issued 300,000 common shares to the Optionor at a deemed price of $0.05 per share.
