SLAM DRILLS MORE COPPER MINERALIZATION
AT GOODWIN
DRILLING CRITICAL ELEMENTS IN THE BATHURST MINING CAMP
For Release 7:50 EST, June 26th, 2024
Miramichi, New Brunswick ‐ SLAM Exploration Ltd. (TSXV-SXL) is pleased to report
preliminary results from the second hole (GW24- 02) drilled on its wholly owned Goodwin
Project in the Bathurst Mining Camp (BMC) of New Brunswick. The Goodwin Project is located
5 kilometer s southwest of the Half Mile copper zinc silver deposit owned by Trevali Mining
Corporation in the BMC.
Hole GW24 -02 highlights include a 0.50 meter core interval containing 20% chalcopyrite
(copper mineralization) and a 5.1 meter interval containing 70% pyrrhotite and 5% chalcopyrite .
This copper-bearing interval occurs within a zone of variable mineralization from 2 3.60 meters
to 54.50 meters. GW24-02 was drilled from the same site as GW24 -01 at a dip of 60 0 toward
azimuth 0800 to a depth of 164 meters. Previous workers have shown that pyrrhotite commonly
contains nickel at Goodwin. The summary log reads as follows:
Interval Meters Description Mineralization
0.00 - 6.00 Casing
6.00 - 22.60 Silicified tuff 1% pyrrhotite
22.60-25.00 Mineralized tuff 50% pyrrhotite,1-3% chalcopyrite (copper)
25.00-27.40 Mineralized tuff 6% pyrrhotite
27.40-28.75 Mineralized tuff 80% pyrrhotite
28.75-29.5 Mineralized tuff 6% pyrrhotite
29.50-30.00 Mineralized tuff 20% pyrrhotite, 20% chalcopyrite
30.00-35.10 Mineralized tuff 70% pyrrhotite, 5% chalcopyrite
35.10-37.05 Mineralized tuff 50% pyrrhotite
37.05 Fault zone
37.05-42.90 Mineralized gabbro 70% pyrrhotite, 1% chalcopyrite
42.90-54.50 Mineralized gabbro 40% pyrrhotite, 1% chalcopyrite
54.50-89.00 Mineralized gabbro 10% pyrrhotite, chalcopyrite traces
72.55-72.85 Porphyry dyke
89.00-164.00 Gabbro 1% pyrrhotite, chalcopyrite traces
164.00 End of Hole

The core has been delivered to a secure facility in Bathurst New Brunswick for detailed logging
and sampling.
Goodwin Project Highlights: Logging and sampling are in progress on diamond drill hole
GW24-01 and GW24-02 Both holes tested the Granges zone where previous workers cored a 5.7
meter interval grading 1.79% copper plus 1.51% nickel in diamond drill hole GR87-55. The core
length in meters may not equal the true width of this interval. Upon completion of GW24-02, the
drill was moved to Hole GW -24-03 to test the Farquharson nickel zone at a point 900 meters
southeast of the Granges zone. T he Farquharson zone was discovered by Noranda in a 1960
drilling program.
The Goodwin Project consists of 8 original claims plus 5 recently optioned claims that combine
for 159 units that cover 3,474 hectares of prospective mineral ground. The project is underlain by
the Goodwin Lake gabbro, a 6,500 meter long body of intrusive rocks hosting the 3 copper
nickel occurrences referenced above. Permits are in place for a trenching and drilling program to
test for copper nickel mineralization as well as gold and platinum group metals. The Goodwin
project is accessible by logging roads from the Fraser Burchill road off Route 430 which
connects to the city of Miramichi 90 kilometers to the southeast.
QA-QC Procedures : The results described above are from news releases and reports that
predate NI43-101 regulations. The numbers can only be validated by additional drilling but the

Company deems these results to be useful to plan additional drilling. The core descriptions and
the summary log for hole GW24-02 are based on visual observations of the core.
About SLAM Exploration Ltd: SLAM Exploration Ltd. a public resource company with a
large portfolio of mineral claim holdings built around its wholly owned Menneval gold project in
the mineral -rich province of New Brunswick. SLAM has discovered multiple gold veins at
Menneval 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 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 holds the Goodwin copper nickel project and the Mine Road VMS copper zinc
silver project in the mineral rich Bathurst Mining Camp of New Brunswick. Previous workers
discovered 3 copper nickel occurrences at Goodwin. Mineralized core intercepts were drilled
including 1.79% copper plus 1.51% nickel over 5.7 meters in diamond drill hole GR89-55 on the
Goodwin project.
Successful diamond drill holes 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 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 M 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; 534,000 shares and 333,000
warrants (exercisable at $0.01) issued by Nine Mile Metals Inc. (NINE) on March 01, 2024
pursuant to the Wedge project agreement and $25,000 cash plus 2,500,000 shares of Lode Gold
Resources Inc. (LOD) pursuant to the Ramsay gold agreement. The Company holds NSR
royalties and expects additional cash and share payments on the Wedge copper zinc project and
