(TheNewswire)

Vancouver, Canada– TheNewswire - January 26 th , 2025– ArborMetals Corp. (“ Arbor ” or the“ Company ”) ( TSXV: ABR,FWB: 432) is pleased to announce its intentionto commence Phase 2 diamond drilling at its wholly-owned JarnetLithium Project, located in the Corvette Lake Lithium Camp,Eeyou-Istchee Baie-James territory in Quebec North region. The Phase 1drilling campaign successfully completed a total of 10 NQ2 holes, fora combined drilling length of 1,913 meters. Assays from the Phase 1program are expected in the near term.

The fully funded 2025 Phase 2 program is scheduled tocommence February 2025, and calls for up to 6000m of NQ2 holes on itsJarnet claims. Concurrently, the Company has applied for an ATI toexpand the program to include several high-value targets on theFirebird, Corvette and St. Pierre claims. The Company is progressingin defining targets and drilling approach.

Phase 1 in late 2024 drilling focused on six targetareas within the Jarnet 1 and Jarnet 2 claim groups. These targetswere selected based on anomalous soil and rock samples, in conjunctionwith geophysical interpretations performed earlier in the year. Holedepths ranged from 89 meters to 302 meters, and the drilling yielded663 core samples which have been sent for immediate laboratoryanalysis with quality control material.

Granitic pegmatites were encountered and sampled innine of the ten drill holes, covering five of the six target areas.Notably, molybdenite was observed in pegmatitic quartz veins in fivedrill holes across three separate target zones. These veins are hostedin quartz monzonite.

Phase 1 drilling was performed by Forage etConstruction Muskw, a joint venture between Forage Fusion Drilling andthe Cree community, represented by Saskounan. Muskw, based inChisasibi, Quebec, is co-owned and predominantly operated by local andIndigenous stakeholders. Muskw’s involvement exemplifies the successof local and Indigenous ownership and reinforces Arbor’s commitmentto community engagement and economic development in the regions whereit operates. Arbor extends its sincere gratitude to Muskw for theirexpertise, professionalism, and dedication to the project.

We are excited to continue advancing the Jarnet LithiumProject with the upcoming Phase 2 drill program,” said MarkFerguson, President and CEO of Arbor. “We anticipate the resultsfrom our Phase 1 program will confirm the lithium potential of theproject, and we are eager to expand our efforts with the additionaldrilling. As we move into Phase 2, we are confident that we are on theright path to unlocking the potential of Jarnet. We remain committedto driving forward the development of this high-potentialproject.”

The Jarnet, Corvette Lake and St. Pierrelithium project s , located in theJames Bay region of Quebec, comprises 83map-designated claims, covering an area of approximately 5,606hectares. The projects are contiguous to the Corvette-FCI property,where diamond drilling has confirmed significant lithiummineralization representing one of the highest-profile lithiumexploration projects in the sector.

The Kemlee LakeLithium project isstrategically located three kilometers east of Rock Tech LithiumInc.'s Aumacho claim blocks and twelve kilometers south of the GeorgiaLake Project.  The Project shares many geological similarities withthe prolific Georgia Lake deposit, including bedrock geology and thepresence of massive intrusive dykes. The primary target at the Projectwill be spodumene-bearing pegmatites hosted in metasediments.
