FE Battery Metals Intersects Multiple Lithium Pegmatite Zones in most Recent Drilling at Augustus Lithium Property

[{"type":"text","content":" VANCOUVER, BC, Sept. 11, 2023 /CNW/ - FE Battery Metals Corp. (CSE: FE) (OTCQB: FEMFF) (WKN: A2JC89) (\"FE Battery Metals\" or the \"Company) is pleased to announce results of Drill Hole LC23-63 from the current 2023 drill program at its flagship Augustus Lithium Property in Quebec, Canada. Drill hole LC23-63 was drilled at the main Augustus zone. In total, the drill hole intersected six separate lithium bearing zones, which, in total, have a composite length of 38.48 meters (see Highlights for individual zones). New sampling of the host, or 'wallrock' in contact with the pegmatite bodies was found to contain lithium mineralization and that there is an observed correlation with higher lithium (Li), cesium (Cs), and rubidium (Rb) values to higher nickel and chromium values in these rocks. Understanding the degree of the host rock mineralization could provide a useful guide for further exploration and resource building work at the project. If the host rock has been mineralizaed, likely by hydrothermal fluids, it may lead to a significant increase in potential lithium resource at the project. These lithium exomorphic halos are documented to extend from 2-5 m or more in the country rock in other lithium-pegmatite occurrences. Highlights (See Table 1 for details) Lithium pegmatite #1 intersected intersected a 3.88 meter zone with 0.37% Li2O at 115.49 m drilled depth. In addition, there are anomalous values of other rare metals such as beryllium (Be) in the range of 35 to 370 parts per million (ppm), cesium (Cs) 11.4 to 2070 ppm, niobium (Nb) 30 to 81.2 ppm, and tantalum (Ta) 24.7 to 113 ppm. Lithium pegmatite #2 intersected intersected a 8 meter wide zone with 1.0% Li2O at 179.7 m drilled depth, including a 4 m section of 1.61% Li2O at 181.5 m. In addition, there are anomalous values of other rare metals such as Be in the range of 10 to 444 ppm, Cs 15.1 to 489 ppm, Nb 7.4 to 105.5 ppm, and Ta 3.4 to 96.1 ppm. Lithium pegmatite #3 intersected a 2.8 meter zone with 0.3% Li2O at 199 m drilled depth. In addition, there are anomalous values of other rare metals such as Be in the range of less than (<) 3 to 180 ppm, Cs 4.9 to 298 ppm, Nb 5.9 to 93.1 ppm, and Ta 1.8 to 128 ppm. Lithium pegmatite #4 intersected intersected a 5.4 meter zone with 0.75% Li2O at 214 m drilled depth including a one meter section of 2.21% L...
