CELL · Price
Executive Summary
- Grid Battery Metals Inc. completed the second phase of its 2025 fall exploration program on the 275‑km² gold‑copper project in central British Columbia.
- The phase focused on detailed prospecting, rock and soil sampling in the Jupiter and Starlight claim blocks, targeting work area 15 and two magnetic anomalies identified by prior work.
- Assay results are expected by the end of the fall, after which the company will plan its next exploration steps.
Key Details
- Program Scope: Phase 2 executed by Hardline Exploration (Canadian contract geological team); covered Jupiter claim block (east‑west soil lines, 25 B‑horizon samples, silt/rock samples) and Starlight claim block (72 rock samples, 24 conventional soil samples).
- Geological Targets: Work area 15 – high‑priority geochemical anomaly from 2021 Equity Exploration program; magnetic anomalies on the Pinchi fault (northern target) and a historic copper‑gold‑molybdenum MMI anomaly (southern target).
- Sampling Results (qualitative):
- Jupiter: Outcrops of phyllite with quartz veins identified.
- Starlight: Presence of intermediate to felsic intrusive rocks (quartz diorite, granodiorite, monzodiorite, monzonite) with pervasive potassic alteration; copper mineralization observed as malachite, chalcocite, bornite, chalcopyrite.
- Technical Reference: Technical report for Grid B.C. copper‑gold project dated Jan 24 2025 (filed on SEDAR+).
- Future Timeline: Assay results anticipated by end of fall 2025; subsequent exploration steps to be defined thereafter.
- Qualified Person: Jeremy Hanson, P.Geo., independent qualified person under NI 43‑101, reviewed and approved technical content.
Notable Quotes
“The exploration program follows up on previous work conducted and includes geochemistry across various untested magnetic features on Starlight and Jupiter claims… We expect to have these assay results by the end of the fall, and, shortly thereafter, our team plans to devise next exploration steps…” – Tim Fernback, President & CEO.
