[{"type":"text","content":" Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - October 17, 2022) - Foremost Lithium Resource & Technology Ltd. (CSE: FAT) (OTCQB: FRRSF) (FSE: F0R0) (WKN: A3DCC8) (www.foremostlithium.com) (\"Foremost Lithium, Foremost or the Company\") is pleased to announce that it has commenced preparations for a winter diamond drill program on its 100% owned 2,476 acre/1,002 hectare Jean Lake Lithium Property situated in the mine-friendly district of Snow Lake, Manitoba. The drill targets will include the high-grade spodumene-bearing Beryl pegmatite dykes where grab sample assays of 3.89% and 5.17% Li2O were received from pegmatite dyke B1 and 3.81%, 4.09% and 4.74% Li2O from pegmatite dyke B2 in August 2021. Elsewhere on the property coincident drone (\"UAV\" or Unmanned Aerial Vehicle) magnetic lows with coincident anomalous responses for lithium, cesium, rubidium, and niobium in soil samples analyzed with Mobile Metal Ion Technology (MMI) will be drill tested. The linear trend of magnetic lows defined on the Jean Lake property by the UAV-borne survey are interpreted as the magnetic signature of the coarse spodumene-bearing Sherritt Gordon #1 and #2 and the Grass River pegmatite dykes currently being explored and developed by Snow Lake Resources Ltd. There are also linear trends of magnetic lows associated with the high-grade Beryl pegmatites which will be drill tested. Figure 1 - Magnetic image covering the Jean Lake property. The gap in the image is due to the location of Hydroelectric power lines crossing the property. Location B-1 assayed 3.89% Li2O connects with target 11; and Location B2 (red circle) assayed 5.17% Li2O and connects with target 10 The UAV-borne magnetic surveys were flown by EarthEx Geophysical Solutions Inc. (Selkirk, Manitoba) with financial support from the Manitoba Mineral Development Fund. MMI analyses were undertaken in the laboratories of SGS Canada Inc. Burnaby (B.C.). Daniel Card, President of EarthEx Geophysical Solutions Inc., states, \"It is encouraging to see the coincidence of high-quality UAV-assisted magnetic responses with geochemical anomalies from the Jean Lake property. The combination of these two datasets makes for compelling drill targets.\" The drill program will be staged from a base in Snow Lake with helicopter support from Gogal Air Services. Assay samples from drill core will be shippe...
