(TSXV: BMR) (OTCQB: BTRMF) (\"Battery\" or \"BMR\" or the \"Company\") is pleased to announce encouraging drill core assay results from the on-going 2021 exploration and in-fill Dalmacia drill program at the Punitaqui mine complex (\"Punitaqui\") in Chile. Punitaqui is slated for resumption of copper concentrate production in mid to late-2022. Dalmacia is located in the southern portion of the Punitaqui area about 6 kilometers south of the Punitaqui copper processing plant. The Dalmacia target is the second of several historic zones drilled by BMR with partially delineated mineralized zones and established underground access. HighlightsComplete final assay results from two Dalmacia drillholes (DS-21-03 and DS-21-06 see Table 1) have been returned with encouraging results as follows:Drillhole DS-21-O3 (Infill): 15 meters (\"m\") grading 1.01% copper (\"Cu\"), 1.2g/t silver (\"Ag\") and 0.02g/t gold (\"Au\") including 4m at 2.47% Cu, 3.1g/t Ag and 0.05g/t Au.Drillhole DS-21-O6 (Step-out): 32m grading 0.73% Cu and 0.5g/t Ag including 16m at 1.15% Cu, 0.6g/t Ag and 0.06g/t Au and also including 7m at 1.75% Cu, 0.8g/t Ag and 0.08g/t Au from 37m.3m at 2.14% Cu, 0.60g/t Ag and 0.03g/t Au from 112m. 5m at 1.58% Cu, 0.4g/t Ag and 0.02g/t Au from 134m. 95m at 0.78% Cu and 0.5g/t Ag from 167m including 3m at 1.84% Cu, 0.8g/t Ag and 0.10g/t Au from 167m 4m at 1.75% Cu,0.6g/t Ag and 0.07g/t Au from 183m65m at 0.93%Cu and 0.5g/t Ag including 14m at 2.44% Cu, 0.7g/t Ag and 0.04g/t Au from 197m 19m at 1.10% Cu, 0.6g/t Ag and 0.02g/t Au from 243m including 8m at 1.88% Cu, 0.7g/t Ag and 0.03g/t Au from 243m and 2m at 1.79% Cu, 0.7g/t Ag and 0.06g/t Au from 260m.19 holes completed at Dalmacia have reached target depth and 18 holes have intersected significant visible copper mineralization.The Dalmacia drill program is designed to confirm mineralized zones identified by previous drilling programs and expand these mineralized zones north and south, along strike and at also depth. Earlier results from the Dalmacia 2021 drilling program include (see Table 2):Drillhole DS-21-O1: 12m grading 1.79% Cu and 2.5g/t Ag including 8m at 2.44% Cu, 3.2g/...
