EQUIVALENT
Includes 31.20 Meters Grading 3.84% Copper Equivalent
For Immediate Release August 07, 2024
Miramichi, New Brunswick ‐ SLAM Exploration Ltd. (“SLAM” or the “Company”)
(TSXV-SXL) announces it drilled a 64.90 meter core interval grading 2.19% copper equivalent
from 23.60 meters to 88.50 meters in hole GW24- 02. This interval includes a 31.20 meter zone
grading 3.84% copper equivalent and individual samples ranging up to 12. 51% copper
equivalent over 0.50 meters. GW24-02 is one of 3 holes 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.

The above assay results are from 98 samples sawn from 141.4 meters of core in hole GW24-02
and delivered to ALS Chemex Inc. ALS Chemex analyzed all the samples with ME -ICP41 and
PGM-ICP23 methods. Hole GW24-02 was drilled beneath hole GW24-01 and rotated 20 degrees
as shown on the aeromagnetic gradient map below. Hole GW24-01 intersected 35 meters grading
1.36% copper equivalent as reported July 31, 2024. After hole GW24 -02, the Company drilled
hole GW24-03 at a site 900 meters to the southeast as shown on the aeromagnetic map.

Assays are pending on 78 samples that represent 112.5 meters of core sawn from hole GW24-03
including 58 meters of 15% pyrrhotite mineralization.

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.

The Company drilled 3 diamond drill holes on the Goodwin copper nickel project in the Bathurst
Mining Camp (“BMC”) of New Brunswick. Highlights include a 64.90 meter core interval
grading 2.14% copper equivalent in hole GW24- 02 and a 35 meter core interval grading 1.36%
copper equivalent in hole GW24- 01. Assays are pending on 78 samples from hole GW24-03.
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 9 months as follows; $150,000 cash and 50,000 shares from S2 Minerals Inc. (STWO) on
