Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - April 25, 2024) - Q2 Metals Corp. (TSXV: QTWO) (OTCQB: QUEXF) (FSE: 458) (\"Q2\" or the \"Company\") is pleased to announce core assay results of the inaugural drill program completed in fall of 2023 at the Company's wholly owned, 8,668 hectare (\"ha\") Mia Lithium Property (the \"Property\") located in the Eeyou Istchee James Bay Territory of Quebec. The targeted drill area for the inaugural program was the approximately 10-kilometre-long Mia Lithium Exploration Trend (the \"Mia Trend\") which is located 22 kilometres (\"km\") from the Billy Diamond Highway, proximal to major hydro-powerline and all-season road infrastructure. Neil McCallum, VP Exploration, stated: \"Core assay results received to date indicate our 2023 drill program was successful in confirming spodumene mineralization in the pegmatites at the Mia Property. Using innovative targeting methods, our 2023 drill program on the Mia Trend has revealed that pegmatites are in some cases complex and variably mineralized at depth and in other cases, such as at Mia-1/2 and Carte, the pegmatite bodies have a simple geometry and consistent mineralization. We are very encouraged with these first drill results and believe we have only just begun to unlock the potential of the Mia Property.\" The Mia Trend comprises an approximately 10-km-long series of sub-parallel pegmatite intrusions, of which there are 11 demonstrated spodumene mineralized zones. The individual pegmatite bodies vary in thickness, between a few metres (\"m\") and over 20 m in some cases. The primary objective of the drill program was to drill test along the Mia Trend, with a total of 31 drill holes completed for approximately 5,601 m. One drill rig was used to test t...
