[{"type":"text","content":" TORONTO, Feb. 23, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- JOURDAN RESOURCES INC. (TSXV: JOR; OTCQB: JORF; FRA: 2JR1) (“Jourdan” or the “Company“) is pleased to announce the partial results of last summer’s sampling program on its Preissac - La Corne property, which is approximately 38km north of Val-d’Or in Quebec, Canada. The soil sampling program has resulted in the detection of several lithium anomalies which represent potential new targets for a follow-up summer 2023 field program (see Figure 1). The results received to date only cover portions of the southern half of the property. Soil results from the northern part of the property are still pending. Those results are expected in the coming weeks. The sampling program was conducted on a 400m x 200m regional grid and covered most of the property area. Samples have been collected from the B-horizon at a depth ranging from 10 cm to 90 cm. Sample data collected includes UTM location, depth of sample, color, moisture content, texture (sand, silt, clay), and percentage, angularity and lithology of pebbles and or cobbles. Samples collected amount to approximately 1 kilogram of material and are placed in plastic sample bags. Wet samples are additionally placed into 5 ml plastic Ziploc bags to prevent contamination. At the end of the day, all samples are placed inside the Company’s shop facility on a rack and allowed to dry for at least one week before shipping to Impact Global Solutions (IGS) lab in Delson, Quebec. The geochemical soil sampling program was designed and is being sampled by GeoTasks Inc. technical team from Sudbury, Ontario. Their technical team is supervised by OGQ compliant senior geologists. IGS lab and GeoTasks Inc. are independent of the Company.

The Company is highly encouraged by the results received to date. An extensive lithium-in-soil anomaly was defined over a known beryl showing in the west-central portion of the property. Another anomaly is located north and adjacent to another beryl showing located near the southern property margin (see Figure 1). Beryl-bearing pegmatites are known to contain spodumene, the key lithium-bearing mineral in pegmatites. Jourdan is eagerly awaiting results from t...
