SLAM DRILLS 35 METERS GRADING 1.25% COPPER
EQUIVALENT
Assays Up To 6.86% Copper and 3.31 g/t Gold Over 0.5 Meters
For Immediate Release July 31, 2024
Miramichi, New Brunswick ‐ SLAM Exploration Ltd. (“SLAM” or the “Company”) (TSXV-
SXL) announces assay results from the first hole including a core interval grading 1.93% copper
equivalent over 16.20 meters in hole GW24- 01. This interval includes individual assays ranging
up to 6.86% copper over 0.50 meters and 3.31 grams/tonne (“g/t”) gold over 0.50 meters cut by
diamond drill hole GW24- 01. GW24-01 is one of 3 holes recently drilled on SLAM’s wholly
owned Goodwin claims located 5 kilometers southwest of the Half Mile copper zinc silver deposit
in the Bathurst Mining Camp of New Brunswick.

These assay results are from 38 samples of core samples sawn from hole GW24-01 and delivered
to ALS Chemex Inc. ALS Chemex analyzed all the samples with ME -ICP41 and PGM -ICP23
methods.
Assays are pending on 98 samples that represent 141.4 meters of sawn core from hole GW24- 02
including 31.80 meters of pyrrhotite -chalcopyrite mineralization. Assays are also pending on 78
samples that represent 112.5 meters of sawn core from hole GW24-03 including 58 meters of 15%
pyrrhotite mineralization. According to previous workers, pyrrhotite mineralization at Goodwin
generally contains nickel.

QA-QC Procedures: Core samples were delivered from the drill to a secure logging facility in
Bathurst, New Brunswick. After logging, s amples were sawn using a diamond blade saw . Sawn
half-core samples were collected in bags, labelled with sample tags and delivered to ALS Chemex
Ltd. in Moncton New Brunswick. SLAM inserted standards and blanks into the sample series.
ALS Chemex analyzed all samples using the multi-element analyses using their methods ME-
ICP41 and PGM-ICP23.
About SLAM Exploration Ltd: SLAM Exploration Ltd. is a public resource company with a
large portfolio of mineral claim holdings in the mineral-rich province of New Brunswick. SLAM
has discovered multiple gold veins on its wholly owned Menneval gold project. The Company has
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 November 22, 2022). The Company reported quartz
float grading up to 39.2 g/t gold on its Jake Lee project in the vicinity of the Clarence Stream gold
deposit where Galway Metals Inc. is working on a 2.3 M ounce gold deposit in southern New
Brunswick.
The Company recently drilled 3 diamond drill holes on the Goodwin copper nickel p roject in the
Bathurst Mining Camp (“BMC”) of New Brunswick. The first hole GW24- 01 intersected a 35
meter core interval grading 1.36% copper equivalent and assays are pending on 176 samples from
the other 2 holes. Based on the drilling intercepts, the Company expanded the Goodwin Project
which now comprises 194 units covering 4,239 hectares.

SLAM also owns the Mine Road copper zinc silver project adjacent to the former producing Heath
Steele Mines property in the BMC. Successful diamond drill holes at Mine Road by previous
workers include IL2014-003 with a 9-meter core interval grading 14.51% zinc, 5.86% lead, 0.67%
copper and 139.9 g/t silver on the volcanogenic massive sulphide Railroad zone at Mine Road.
(Doe Run Canadian Exploration ULC; 2015, New Brunswick Assessment Files, Report of Work
477877), The Railroad zone is 7,000 m east of the 20 million tonne former producing Heath Steele
B Zone.
The Company is a project generator and has received significant cash and share payments over the
last 6 months as follows; $150,000 cash and 50,000 shares from S2 Minerals Inc. (STWO) on
December 19, 2023 pursuant to the Reserve Creek gold agreement; 534,0 00 shares and 333,000
warrants (exercisable at $0.01) issued by Nine Mile Metals Inc. (NINE) on March 01, 2024
