MONTREAL, Sept. 22, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Midland Exploration Inc. (“Midland”) (TSX-V: MD) solidified its land position on its Mythril and Mythril Regional Cu-Mo-Au-Ag projects (wholly owned by Midland) located in Eeyou Istchee James Bay, Quebec and is evaluating their lithium potential. Midland discovered the copper-gold mineral system Mythril by prospecting in late 2018 and concluded a strategic investment with BHP Billiton Canada Inc. (“BHP”) in the spring of 2019 totalling $5.85 million for copper exploration in Quebec.

The Eeyou Istchee James Bay region is undergoing an exploration rush targeting lithium-bearing pegmatites. Mythril and Mythril Regional projects are strategically located 1.6 to 4.5 km north of the hard rock spodumene lithium-bearing pegmatite discoveries at Corvette reported by Patriot Battery Metals Inc. (“Patriot”) in their August 31, 2022 news release. It mentions mineralized lithium-bearing drilling intervals including 1.65% Li2O and 193 ppm Ta2O5 over 159.7 metres from drill hole CV22-042.

The Mythril and Mythril Regional projects consist of a total of 1,534 map designated claims covering up to 778 square kilometres and spread amongst 8 claim blocks located to the north and south of Patriot’s pegmatite field. A total of 47 map designated claims were added recently to the Mythril project main block, which are partially neighbour to Patriot’s current claims. These projects, which originally targeted Cu-Mo-Au-Ag mineralization, are currently being also evaluated for lithium-bearing pegmatite mineralization which could potentially add value to their current metallogeny.

Global demand for lithium is rising caused by the demands of the Electric vehicle industry and current unstable geopolitical situation. The wholly owned Mythril and Mythril Regional projects offer opportunities to potentially contribute to this increase demand.

Cautionary Statements

Mineralization occurring at the Corvette project owned by Patriot is not necessarily indicative of mineralization that may be identified on the Mythril, and Mythril Regional properties owned by Midland.
