[{"type":"text","content":" MONTREAL, Jan. 18, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Brunswick Exploration Inc. (TSX-V: BRW, OTCQB: BRWXF; “BRW” or the “Company”) is pleased to report final drill results from the Fall 2023 program at the Mirage Project, located in the Eeyou Istchee-James Bay region of Quebec. Drilling has outlined two new spodumene mineralized dykes (MR-5 and MR-6) with significant thickness and grade, all within the Central Zone. Highlights include MR-23-28 intersected high-grade mineralization of 1.80% Li2O over 37.2 meters starting from surface in newly discovered dyke MR-6 located 500 metres northeast of MR-3. Evidence of potential stacking of dykes in Central Zone where MR-23-35 intercepted 11.5 meters grading 1.1% Li2O approximately 100 meters south of MR-3 in new dyke MR-5. Hole MR-23-33 intercepted over 9 blind, stacked dykes over a down-hole length of approximately 95 meters with thickness varying from 0.8 to 7.3 meters. All of the dykes announced in this NR are open along strike and at depth. In the maiden drill program, 5 of the 6 dykes reported continuous high-grade mineralization (1.5+% Li2O) over significant width (10+ metres) all within a roughly 2 x 2 km dyke swarm.

Importantly, all of the dykes drilled at Mirage remain open both along strike and at depth. Alongside the discovery of several blind dykes (predominantly in the Central Zone to date), several undrilled targets and a favorable structure in excess of twelve kilometres, we have built a strong foundation for continued exploration success at Mirage as we advance towards our Phase 2 drilling program scheduled to begin imminently.” Table 2: Final Drill Results from 2023 Drill Campaign Hole ID Zone Dyke From (m) To (m) Length (m) Li2O% Ta2O3 (ppm) MR-23-27 South MR-4B 107.7 109.8 5.8 0.03 472 MR-23-28 Central MR-6 3.8 40.9 37.2 1.80 154 MR-23-29 Central MR-6 2.6 34.8 32.2 1.55 168 MR-23-30 Central MR-6 1.7 26.2 24.6 1.75 143 MR-23-31 Central ...
