VANCOUVER, BC , April 20, 2021 /CNW/ - Megawatt Lithium and Battery Metals Corp . (CSE: MEGA) (FSE: WR20) (OTC PINK: WALRF) (the " Company " or " Megawatt ") is pleased to announce that it has engaged SJ Geophysics of Delta, BC to conduct a 3D Induced Polarity Survey (IP) at the Company's Cobalt Hill Project.   The Cobalt Hill Property consists of eight mineral claims covering an area of approximately 1,727.43 hectares located in the Trail Creek Mining Division in the Province of British Columbia.

SJ Geophysics Volterra system is designed to find the best ground contact resistance, providing data density far exceeding industry standards. The survey consists of 22.8 line kilometres and is intended to test a large gold soil anomaly as well as an area where copper – cobalt mineralization was sampled on the property. The survey is tentatively scheduled to begin late May (weather and conditions dependent). The results will be combined with the results of the Company's most recent sampling programs in order to identify the best drill targets.

David Thornley-Hall , CEO of Megawatt, comments: "We look forward to reviewing the results of our IP survey at Cobalt Hill. The data modelling will bring us one step closer to defining and prioritizing a drill program on the property."
