T2 Metals Signs Drill Contract for the Sherridon Copper-Zinc Project, Manitoba

V.TWO

Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - August 2, 2023) - T2 Metals Corp. (TSXV: TWO) (OTCQB: AGLAF) (WKN: A3DVMD) ("T2" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that the Company has signed a contract with Quesnel Bros. Diamond Drilling Ltd ("QB Drilling") for at least 1600 metres of core drilling in approximately 10 holes at the Sherridon copper-zinc project in the Flin Flon district of west-central Manitoba.

The drilling program will target the Lost, Cold and Bob historical resource areas where high grade copper (Cu) and zinc (Zn) rich mineralization has previously been discovered from surface to more than 250 metres vertical depth. These three prospects lie approximately 4km apart, all with existing road/surface access and each within 1km of an operational rail line.

Halo Resources Ltd and HudBay Minerals Inc together drilled more than 180 holes in the Sherridon region between 2006 and 2011 when metal prices were significantly lower than today. Despite many high-grade Cu-Zn-Ag results, the project has seen no exploration drilling for more than 10 years.

Past drilling highlights from the prospects to be targeted in the upcoming program include:


HOLE_ID FROM (m) TO (m) INTERVAL (m) Cu (%) Zn (%) Ag (ppm) Au (ppm)
Cold Lake DH-156 61.15 78.45 17.3 2.70 4.10 47.5 2.6
Lost Lake HLL003 71.00 82.90 11.9 1.54 5.42 17.9 0.7
Bob Lake DH-05 181.60 206.60 25.0 0.76 0.49 7.2 0.2

The recent launch of "The Manitoba Critical Minerals Strategy: Driving Sustainable Growth" by the Government of Manitoba highlights the importance of exploration for copper and other critical metals and minerals in Manitoba. The Honorable Heather Stefanson, Premier of Manitoba, noted that the "clean and low-cost energy sources, competitive business costs, a young and skilled workforce, and world-class education and research institutions" alongside high geological potential places Manitoba in an excellent position to continue to supply low-carbon metals to the world.

Mark Saxon, CEO of T2 Metals Corp., said, "the Sherridon VHMS camp is a well-known part of the Flin Flon - Snow Lake mining district. Despite substantial past production and multiple prospects with high-grade Cu-Zn mineralization like that shown in Table 1, the area has not received any recent exploration. In partnership with the Kiciwapa Cree we are excited to get discovery and development work underway once again."

The drilling program will be undertaken in close collaboration with the Kiciwapa Cree and Mathias Colomb Cree Nations, with whom an Exploration Agreement was recently signed (see press released dated 13th June 2023). The program is anticipated to begin during Q3 2023, and remains subject to final permitting. QB Drilling are based in Denare Beach, less than 100km from the drill site, and are an excellent local partner for this program.

Sherridon is a large volcanic hosted massive sulphide (VHMS) camp with an extensive mining history and multiple copper-zinc-silver-gold historical resources and occurrences. The project is well-served by all weather roads, rail and the Sherridon/Cold Lake village.

T2 Metals is focused on copper, nickel and lithium acquisition, exploration and development within the major mining belts of western North America. The Company continues to target under-explored areas, including the Sherridon, Lida and Cora projects where post-mineralization cover masks areas of high geological prospectivity in the vicinity of major mines.

Any references to the terms "ore minerals", "mineralization" or "mineralized zones" are purely for descriptive purposes and are not intended to be interpreted as or relied upon for any resource or economic evaluation of the project at this time. Although historic exploration data was generated by reputable companies applying practice of the day, T2 Metals Corp cannot verify the data or determine the quality assurance and quality control measures applied in generating the data. Furthermore, there is no guarantee that the exploration history is fully captured. Additional drilling may have been undertaken, however the Company has not been made aware of or obtained additional data. Accordingly, the Company cautions that the exploration data reported in this news release may not be reliable. Readers are cautioned that a "qualified person" as defined by National Instrument 43-101 has not completed sufficient work to be able to verify the historical information, and therefore the information should not be relied upon.

The qualified person for the Company's projects, Mr. Mark Saxon, the Company's Chief Executive Officer, a Fellow of the Australasian Institute of Mining and Metallurgy and a Member of the Australian Institute of Geoscientists, has reviewed and approved the contents of this release.
