High Tide Resources Completes Phase 1 Prospecting at its Clearcut Lithium Project in Quebec

TORONTO, ON / ACCESSWIRE / January 16, 2023 / High Tide Resources Corp. ("High Tide" or the "Company") (CSE:HTRC) announces today that it has completed its Phase 1 prospecting program at the 14,400-hectare Clearcut Lithium Project (‘Property') located in the emerging Cadillac-Pontiac lithium camp southwest of Val d'Or, Quebec (Figure 1). Companies already active in the camp include Winsome Resources, Sayona Mining, Vision Lithium, Brunswick Exploration and Renforth Resources.

Steve Roebuck, Director, President & Interim CEO of High Tide states, "The exploration team did a great first-pass boots-on-the-ground prospecting program over a large area under challenging weather conditions in late 2022. Coupled with our LiDAR reprocessing and digital mapping, we now have a much better feel for the geology on portions of the property and will use this, along with the geochemistry from the assays and the new airborne geophysics, to refine our exploration model as we prepare for the spring 2023 exploration program."

The prospecting program was executed by ALS GoldSpot Discoveries Ltd. (formerly GoldSpot Discoveries Corp.) technical team with an objective of identification of lithium-cesium-tantalum-bearing pegmatite bodies (LCT-Pegmatite) using systematic rock geochemical sampling of all pegmatite bodies and felsic intrusions. A total of 294 stations were described for geology, and 142 rock samples were collected (Figure 2) and sent to ALS Labs - an accredited laboratory - for analysis using ME-ICP81 and ME-MS81 packages. Quality assurance and quality control procedures have been implemented to ensure best practices in sampling and analysis of the rock samples: Standards and blanks were regularly inserted into the sample stream. Assay results are still pending.

The Property consists of 249 claims made accessible by a network of logging roads which increases efficiency and reduces exploration costs. The 2022 geological program highlighted felsic to intermediate intrusions, including granite, granodiorite, tonalite and diorite, which locally contain discontinuous biotite-muscovite-bearing pegmatite dykes. The field program coupled with a new airborne magnetic and radiometric survey in 2022 provide unprecedent insights into the geological framework of the Property for further exploration activities. Field data and assays interpretations will be performed by the same group of experts from ALS GoldSpot to generate prospectivity analysis of LCT-Pegmatite using a hybrid approach of machine learning techniques and geoscience knowledge.
