In addition, the Company has exploration plans to drill the Titac East area, which the Company views to have geologic potential similar to Titac South and North (Figure 2). Drill targets will be defined based on the results of an upcoming VTEM airborne geophysical survey scheduled to commence in late November. 

A Message from David Suda, CEO of Green Bridge Metals

“Based on the current MRE at Titac South, the Company sees an exceptional value proposition with the confirmed rare combination of titanium, copper, and vanadium mineralization found at Titac. We believe that the expansion potential in the immediate area is significant and recent advances in metallurgical processing demonstrate potential economic viability. The Company plans to aggressively expand the resource and conduct advanced metallurgical work moving toward preliminary economic studies.”

Key Technical Points:

• The inferred mineral resource for the South Titac area includes 46.6 million tonnes of mineralized rock at 15% titanium dioxide (TiO₂) that is mostly comprised of ilmenite mineralization.
• Based on an average grade of 28.5% ilmenite (FeTiO₃), there are 13.3 million tonnes of ilmenite delineated with an average value of $350 (US) per tonne, demonstrating the potential to create significant value at the Titac South deposit. (Dufresne et. al., Table 14.3, TiO₂Pro https://tio2.pro/index.php/2024/08/02/2146-6/ accessed on October 4, 2024)
• Significant copper and vanadium grades in the Titac South drilling demonstrate the potential for significant value to be added on a per tonne basis to the current MRE as they have not been included in the current resource estimate. Future drilling undertaken by Green Bridge will systematically assay for these elements so that they can be included in future MRE updates.
• Recent advances in hydrometallurgical processing at Titac demonstrate that 70% of the titanium can be recovered, along with the potential to separately recover Cu and V, which could be significant value drivers.
• Historical drilling at Titac North demonstrate significant Titanium dioxide and vanadium mineralization has the potential to significantly add to the current MRE. Historical drill results from 2010 are presented in Table 2.
• Significant exploration upside exists at Titac East, currently defined by similar magnetic responses as observed at Titac South and North.
• Titanium, copper, and vanadium hosted in OUI have a distinct, high magnetic and high conductivity signature. A planned VTEM survey over the Titac – Boulder area will confirm the presence of OUIs and provide robust drill targets at Titac East.

Strategic Plan at Titac

The Company plans to expand the inferred MRE at Titac South through drilling approximately 2,000 meters of core. Additional resource expansion potential will be pursued at Titac North via a core drill program of approximately 2,500 meters, validating historical drill results. Once successfully drilled, the Company will use material from drilling to pursue advanced metallurgical work in order to optimize titanium recovery as well as the potential to recover iron, copper, and vanadium. Based on drilling at Titac South and Titac North the Company plans to aggressively pursue an updated MRE, followed by a preliminary economic assessment (PEA).

About Green Bridge Metals

Green Bridge Metals Corporation (formerly Mich Resources Ltd.) is a Canadian based exploration company focused on acquiring ‘battery metal’ rich mineral assets and the development of the South Contact Zone (the “Property”) along the basal contact of the Duluth Intrusion, north of Duluth, Minnesota. The South Contact Zone contains bulk-tonnage copper-nickel and titanium-vanadium in ilmenite hosted in ultramafic to oxide ultramafic intrusions. The Property has exploration targets for bulk-tonnage Ni mineralization, high grade Ni-Cu-PGE magmatic sulfide mineralization and titanium.

2. Mineral Resources, which are not Mineral Reserves, do not have demonstrated economic viability. There has been insufficient exploration to define the inferred resources tabulated above as an indicated or measured mineral resource, however, it is reasonably expected that the majority of the Inferred Mineral Resources could be upgraded to Indicated Mineral Resources with continued exploration. There is no guarantee that any part of the mineral resources discussed herein will be converted into a mineral reserve in the future. The estimate of Mineral Resources may be materially affected by environmental, permitting, legal, marketing, or other relevant issues. The mineral resources in this report were estimated using the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum standards on mineral resources and reserves, definitions, and guidelines prepared by the CIM standing committee on reserve definitions and adopted by the CIM council (CIM 2014 and 2019).

3. The Mineral Resources Estimate is underpinned by data from 24 diamond drillholes totaling 4,751.17 m of drilling that intersected the mineralized domains.

4. The mineral resource is reported at a lower cut-off of 8.0 % TiO2 for the conceptual open pit. The lower cut-off grades and potential mining scenarios were calculated using the following parameters: mining cost = US$5.0/t; G&A = US$2.00/t; processing cost = US$10.00/t; recoveries = 70%; Ilmenite Price = US$350/t, to meet the requirement that the reported Mineral Resources show “reasonable prospects for eventual economic extraction”.

5. Original TiO2 assays were composited to 1.8 m with 2,702 composites generated overall in the mineralized domains including 370 composites generated for the peridotite domain, 646 for the mixed domain, and 1,693 for the pyroxenite domain.

6. Grade interpolation was performed by ordinary kriging (OK) using 1.8-meter composites (block size of 10 m x10 m x 10 m).

7. Bulk density ranges from 2.27 g/cm3 to 4.28 g/cm3 depending on the domain Reported Fe₂O₃ has been lowered to reflect the amount of Fe estimated to be contained in ilmenite based on the assumption that all Ti has been assigned to ilmenite. At this time, accurately quantifying the amount of magnetite contained within this estimate is not possible.
