[{"type":"text","content":"Highlights Drill hole CV23-345 hits approximately 100 m of near-continuous spodumene-bearing pegmatite at CV9. Three (3) drill holes have returned continuous pegmatite intersections of 60+ m. Patriot has defined a pegmatite strike length of approximately 450 m by drilling and outcrop at CV9, which remains open. CV9 is located approximately 14 km west of the CV5 mineral resource. Preliminary geological modelling indicates the CV9 Pegmatite significantly thickens to at least 80 m width at one location and remains open in multiple directions. The magnitude of this variably mineralized pegmatite blow-out is significant, sharing similarities to those present at the CV5 Pegmatite in terms of depth and scale. Eighteen (18) core holes (~4,000 m) have been completed in the inaugural drill program at the CV9 Pegmatite – sample assays are pending. While it is early stage, the work done to date has resulted in an improvement in the understanding of the CV9 Pegmatite as the program went on, with a number of high priority targets now identified. Darren L. Smith, Company Vice President of Exploration, comments: \"This is a very strong start to the drill exploration at the CV9 Pegmatite. Although no core assays have been received yet, the presence of spodumene and the length of pegmatite encountered in multiple holes, highlighted by an approximate 100 m near-continuous spodumene-bearing hit in the final hole of the program, are very positive in terms of potential of this pegmatite to hold significant scale.\" VANCOUVER, BC, Nov. 22, 2023 /CNW/ - November 23, 2023 – SYDNEY, Australia -Patriot Battery Metals Inc. (the \"Company\" or \"Patriot\") (TSXV: PMET) (ASX: PMT) (OTCQX: PMETF) (FSE: R9GA) is pleased to announce preliminary results of its inaugural drill program at the CV9 Spodumene Pegmatite at its wholly owned Corvette Property (the \"Property\" or \"Project\"), located in the Eeyou Istchee James Bay region of Quebec. The CV9 Spodumene Pegmatite is located approximately 14 km west of the CV5 Spodumene Pegmatite (109.2 Mt at 1.42% Li2O inferred1), 9.5 km west-northwest of the CV13 Spodumene Pegmatite, and 11 km south of the Trans-Taiga Road and powerline infrastructure. A total of eighteen (18) holes, for approximately 4,000 m of NQ coring, were completed this summer-fall in the inaugural drill pro...
