GIT:CC - Gitennes Acquires the Highly Prospective Blue Ice Property in Quebec with Pegmatites Containing High Grade Rare Earth Elements / Niobium / Tantalum

(TheNewswire)

Vancouver, BC - TheNewswire - March 1, 2023 - Gitennes Exploration Inc. (" Gitennes " or the" Company ") - (TSXV:GIT) announces that it has assembled aland package in Quebec that has known pegmatites and has beenhistorically sampled by Gitennes with assays returning high gradeHeavy Rare Earth Elements (“HREE”), niobium and tantalum.  Theproperty is located approximately 100 kilometres northeast of SeptIles, Quebec and consists of 119 contiguous claims totaling 6,462hectares.  Of the 119 claims, Gitennes has staked and owns 100% of115 claims and has signed two option agreements to earn 100% of thefour additional claims.

Historical Highlights of theProperty

  • Assays from grab samples of:

    • Total Heavy REE – 7,000 ppm;

    • Niobium – 1.86%;

    • Tantalum – 0.48%;

  • Three swarms of pegmatite dikes have beenmapped;

    • Pegmatite swarms occur over 1,200 metres from north tosouth;

    • Results are from two separate pegmatite dikes 640metres apart;

    • Only one claim has been mapped, potential for morepegmatites on other claims;

  • Property covers a large area of pegmatite dikes with apreviously undocumented occurrence of large crystals of beryl, aberyllium mineral;

  • Limited historical exploration on the entireproperty

    • offers an excellent grass-root discoveryopportunity;

  • Power line crosses the property, and an active railline is 500 metres away.

Large pegmatite that was sampled and returned heavyREE, niobium and tantalum.

Ken Booth, President states: “This is a very excitingopportunity for Gitennes. The Company has been able to assemble ahighly prospective land package at a low cost that provides Gitenneswith the opportunity to make a grass roots discovery in the lithium– REE space.  Many companies have recently staked properties inQuebec based on map geology but Gitennes’ property not only hasseveral mapped pegmatites but it has key indicator minerals, anddocumented niobium, tantalum, beryllium and REE grades that shows thepotential for lithium bearing pegmatites is very high”.

The Property covers occurrences of extremelycoarse-grained pegmatite that intrude gabbro and norite. Historicallyan individual beryl crystal (5% weight percent Be) in excess of 50kilograms was extracted from the property. Geochemical analyses ofsamples from a few pegmatites on the property suggest that the mineralcolumbite-tantalite is present. This complex mineral is frequentlyassociated with, or in proximity to, lithium/REE-rich pegmatites.While exploration of Blue Ice and its associated pegmatites is in theplanning stages, it is believed that the pegmatites on the propertyare indicative of an occurrence which shows exceptionally highpotential to host lithium and REE / Niobium / Tantalummineralization.

The mineralization historically sampled by Gitennes isin a vertical dike that is up to seven metres wide, has been tracedfor 100 metres and is open along strike.  Gitennes’ mappingidentified three swarms of pegmatite dikes over 1,200 metres with thedikes striking east-west.  Based on well established geologicalmodels, the possibility of finding additionalpegmatites on the property is believed to be excellent.

In addition to 115 claims that Gitennes has staked andowns 100%, the Company has two option agreements on four additionalclaims.  Both option agreements give Gitennes the right to acquire100% of the claims.

The first option agreement for one claim pays thevendor $10,000 and issues 100,000 shares on June 1, 2023.  Gitennesmust expend $50,000 on exploration on the claim within 12 months ofsigning the agreement.  A 1.5% NSR will be granted to vendor.

The second option on three claims pays the vendors$10,000 on signing the agreement, $15,000 when Gitennes completes aprivate placement and $50,000 by the second anniversary of the signingof the agreement.  Gitennes will issue 50,000 shares on signing theagreement, 250,000 shares by the third anniversary of the agreement. Exploration expenditures by Gitennes will total $600,000 over threeyears with the first $100,000 is required to be spent within 18 monthsof the signing of the agreement. A 1.5% NSR will be granted to thevendors.
