Tearlach Resources Channel Samples Up to 4.04 % Li2o over 0.70 M on Georgina Properties Tearlach Resources Limited announced that have received the assay results from the channel samples cut on Riches Spodumene Pegmatite, Parks Lake, Georgina Properties, Northwestern Ontario. Fifteen channel samples were cut over 3 channels on the pegmatite as a follow-up on spodumene discovery. The assays confirm the high-grade lithium mineralization on the spodumene pegmatite and justify the upcoming drill program. Riches Pegmatite is open along strike of the peninsula and down dip. The north end of channel GS-CH-23-03 is coarse-grained spodumene covered by overburden and tree roots. A test pit dug by hand 7 m northeast of channel GS-CH-23-03 discovered more coarse-grained green spodumene beneath overburden. Mechanical stripping is required to fully expose the spodumene mineralization on Riches Pegmatite. Rare-element mineralization in the Parks Lake area extends along a 2.6 km strike length. This 2.6 km rare-element pegmatite zone has seven pegmatite dykes with beryl, Nb-Ta-oxides and muscovite books indicators suggesting that more spodumene pegmatites will be found. Riches Pegmatite on Georgina Properties has excellent infrastructure as it is: Located 23 km from the Trans Canada Highway #11 and a power line, Located 930 m from Camp 51 Roads and is accessible by road and boat. 250 km from year-round port on the Great Lakes and transportation hub in Thunder Bay. Tearlach Resources has submitted a drill permit application to the Ontario Ministry of Mines and expects approval in First Quarter 2024. Riches spodumene pegmatite has an exposed width of 12 m and length of 9 m with crystals up to 70 cm long. The spodumene pegmatite is hosted by coarse-grained biotite-muscovite granite. The pegmatite has 3 spodumene-rich zones: green spodumene zone, blue spodumene zone and inner core zone with abundant very coarse-grained green spodumene crystals. Tearlach submitted to Actlabs a total of 452 samples of which 437 were grab samples and 15 were channel samples. The grab samples were delivered by Tearlach geologists to Actlabs, Geraldton or Thunder Bay preparation labs. Samples were assayed by Actlabs, Ancaster analytical lab, which is an ISO 17025 accredited laboratory. The samples were digested using lithium metaborate/tetraborate fusion and assayed by ICP-OES and ICP-MS for whole rock major oxides and trace elements (i.e., 4Litho-Pegmatite Special package). Li2O % was digested using sodium peroxide fusion and assayed using ICP-OES. Actlabs inserted standards, blanks, pulp duplicates and prep duplicates into the sample stream. Tearlach inserted one lithium external standard and one blank into the sample stream for every 20 samples. The external standards are OREAS 147 and OREAS 148, and the external blank is quartz chips. All standards and blanks passed a Quality Control review. Julie Selway, Ph.D., P.Geo. supervised the preparation of the scientific and technical information that formed the basis for the written disclosure in this news release. Dr. Selway is the VP of Exploration for Tearlach Resources and the Qualified Person as defined by National Instrument 43-101. Bekanntmachung • Oct 29
Tearlach Resources Limited Receives Assays Confirming the Presence of Key Lithium Indicator Minerals (Li-Rich Muscovite, Beryl and Nb-Ta-Oxide Minerals) At Parks Lake on the Georgina Properties, Jellicoe, Northern Ontario Tearlach Resources Limited announced that it has received assays confirming the presence of key lithium indicator minerals (Li-rich muscovite, beryl and Nb-Ta-oxide minerals) at Parks Lake on the Georgina Properties, Jellicoe, northern Ontario. The Project is located 9 km east of Rock Tech Lithium's Georgia Lake property and is being explored for lithium mineralization hosted in spodumene pegmatites. Assay Highlights: 0.62 % Li2O, 5030 ppm Rb, 1880 ppm Cs and 122 ppm Ta in green muscovite pod sample 889653, Oxide Island; 10.43 % BeO, 904 ppm Cs and 0.22 % Li2O in pure pale green beryl sample 889539, Beryl Island; 3.31 % Ta2O5, 12.50 % Nb2O5 in pure black Nb-Ta-oxide mineral sample 889654, Oxide Island. These are up to 5 cm in diameter and are among the Nb-Ta-oxide mineral crystals in Ontario. The presence of Li-rich muscovite, beryl and Nb-Ta oxide minerals in rare-element pegmatites indicates that there is a strong potential for the pegmatites to contain spodumene. The 2.6 km strike length of rare-element mineralization is the focus of Tearlach's on-going field exploration program. Tearlach has identified a rare-element pegmatite zone. This zone is where all of the rare-element minerals and elements are concentrated on the property, i.e., beryl, Nb-Ta oxides, Li, Rb, Cs, Nb, Ta, and Be, which all increase with proximity to the spodumene. Tearlach's next steps to find spodumene are to focus the prospecting on the rare-element pegmatite zone to look for the spodumene. The Georgina Properties are 12 km x 26 km in size, and identification of the rare-element pegmatite zone has narrowed down the search considerably. Bekanntmachung • Oct 19
Tearlach Resources Limited Discovers Spodumene on Georgina Properties Tearlach Resources Limited announced the discovery of spodumene, the main ore for lithium, on its Georgina Properties in northern Ontario. The spodumene-bearing pegmatite, which have named "Riches Pegmatite," is the first to be discovered on the property and provides the Company with a clear path and defined targets for ongoing work in the area. Highlights: Green spodumene crystals up to 20 cm wide and 30 cm long were discovered in pegmatite, on Parks Lake peninsula. The current width of the exposed area of the spodumene pegmatite is 12 m. Abundant blue spodumene crystals were also discovered in the pegmatite. The concentration of spodumene in the pegmatite ranges from 5% to 50% locally, with an average of 15-20% spodumene. Alan was accompanied by Kyle Henderson, Kevin Tran and Richard Kindla during the discovery and Tearlach thanks each of them for their efforts. Coarse-grained muscovite books have been identified in seven other locations within the rare-element pegmatite zone. There is a potential that these other seven locations of muscovite books also relate to spodumene pegmatites; however, stripping is required to determine if each of these locations also contains spodumene. Tearlach's geology team will cut channel samples of Riches pegmatite and conduct a Trimble GPS survey with real-time satellite CenterPoint correction and +- 2 cm accuracy in the horizontal to prepare for a winter drill program on the pegmatite.

Tearlach Resources Limited Discovers Beryl and Nb-Ta-Oxide Pegmatites on Georgina Properties Tearlach Resources Limited announced that it has discovered key lithium mineralization indicator minerals (i.e., beryl and Nb-Ta-oxide minerals) in pegmatites on the Georgina Properties, Jellicoe, northern Ontario, during the 2023 summer exploration program. The Project is located 9 km east of Rock Tech Lithium’s Georgia Lake Project and is being explored for lithium mineralization hosted in spodumene pegmatites. This is the first time that beryl and Nb-Ta-oxides have been identified on the Project area. Highlights: Sampling on newly staked claims on Parks Lake has identified rare-element pegmatites with beryl, Nb-Ta-oxides and garnet; Discovered up 5 cm beryl on Parks Lake, sample 889509; Discovered Nb-Ta-oxide minerals 5 cm in diameter on Parks Lake, sample 889654; Assays indicate anomalous Be, Rb, Cs, Nb, Ta and Sn contents in pegmatites on the Property; Tearlach’s geology team will target areas along strike of the rare-element pegmatite outcrops as the presence of beryl and Nb-Ta-oxides are typically associated with lithium mineralization. Georgina Properties: Two exploration targets that host rare-element mineralization with anomalous Be, Rb, Cs, Nb, Sn and Ta contents have been identified on the Georgina Properties. Both exploration targets have the potential to host lithium mineralization in the form of spodumene. These exploration targets are Iris Lake and Parks Lake. Iris Lake Exploration Target: The Iris Lake exploration target was initially identified by the presence of garnet muscovite aplite (sodium-rich pegmatite) in the field. The potential to host rare-element mineralization was confirmed by the assays of 7 samples with anomalous rare-elements around Iris Lake. Parks Lake Exploration Target: Following the discovery of sodium-rich and potassium-rich pegmatites at Iris Lake, Tearlach staked open ground on Parks Lake. The assays above confirmed the fractionated nature of Iris Lake and also Parks Lake (samples 965118 and 965119). According to the pegmatite deposit model, pegmatite melts fractionate from barren to Be to Be+Nb to Be+Ta+Li enrichment. Thus, enrichment in rare-elements (i.e., Be, Rb, Cs, Nb, Sn and Ta) indicates a strong potential for lithium mineralization nearby. Tearlach geologists then began mapping on Parks Lake using boat access. Outcrops are abundant on the islands within and along the shoreline of Parks Lake. Bekanntmachung • Jul 23
Tearlach Resources Limited Discovers Pegmatites on Georgina Properties Tearlach Resources Limited provided an update on progress with its summer exploration program on the Georgina Properties, Jellicoe, northwestern Ontario. The Properties, consisting of the Georgina Stairs, Georgina East and newly staked claims, cover approximately 239 square kilometres and are being explored for pegmatite-hosted lithium mineralization similar to that hosted on Rock Tech's Georgia Lake Property to the west. Fieldwork consisting of geological mapping and outcrop sampling commenced in mid-May, and to date, approximately 20% of the Properties have been covered. Highlights: A key milestone is the discovery of eleven pegmatite outcrops, including both sodium and potassium-rich varieties. These are the first documented pegmatites on the property, and the presence of both sodic and potassic types indicates that fractionation of the pegmatite melt has occurred, which could generate lithium-rich end member components. Tearlach's ongoing geochemical sampling program will focus on establishing geochemical and mineralogical vectors towards possible lithium-enriched areas of the system. Based on the pegmatite discoveries, in June, Tearlach staked an additional 46 claims contiguous with the southern part of Georgina East Property on open ground. The Georgina Properties now consist of 1131 cell claims and is 26 km by 12 km in size. Exploration Targets: The spodumene-bearing pegmatites elsewhere in the region are sodic-rich, with aplite in the outermost zones and green muscovite in the innermost zones associated with spodumene. The identification of both aplite and green muscovite during the recent work on the Properties indicates that it has the potential to host spodumene pegmatites. Tearlach's exploration team will be focusing on these areas in the upcoming month. Bekanntmachung • Jul 12
Tearlach Resources Limited Commences Mapping at Georgina Stairs, Jellicoe, Ontario Tearlach Resources Limited announced that it has started mapping and sampling on Georgina Stairs Lithium Project in the Georgia Lake pegmatite field, Jellicoe, Ontario. Mapping targets are being generated daily and followed up by Tearlach’s geology team. The Project is located 9 km east of Rock Tech Lithium’s Georgia Lake Project and is being explored for lithium mineralization hosted in spodumene pegmatites. Highlights: Data compilation on the Project area, including topography, geology and geophysics data, was completed in the spring of 2023 and used to identify specific exploration targets in the Project area. Satellite images were used to identify outcrops, access roads and logged areas. 172 sample locations were described in the month of May. 76 samples have been submitted to the lab for assays. 20 granite outcrops were discovered and sampled. Tearlach signed an MOU with four local First Nation communities. Tearlach’s geology team has discovered 20 granite outcrops hosted by biotite metasedimentary rocks on the Georgina Stairs claim block, whereas previously Ontario Regional Geology Map (MRD126) indicated that there was no granite on the claim block. The medium- to coarse-grained biotite granite outcrops occur in the southern part of the claim block. The mapping results have been interpreted and indicate three (3) exploration target areas for additional mapping. The discovery of granite is important because pegmatite dykes are derived from granite. For example, Rock Tech’s spodumene pegmatites are hosted by metasedimentary rocks in close proximity to granites. A total of 172 sample locations were described in the month of May, of which 76 samples were submitted to Actlabs, Geraldton location for assay. Results are pending. The samples include granite to examine their rareelement content and metasediments to examine rare-element metasomatism as an indicator of blind pegmatites. Diabase was also sampled to distinguish between different generations of sills and dykes to see if one generation is associated with pegmatites. The Li, Rb, Cs, Nb, Ta and Be content of the granite will be plotted on a map to determine in which direction these rare-elements are increasing. This will be the direction to look for the possible presence of pegmatites. Prospecting is ongoing and has been facilitated by access from the Peck Lake Road, which passes north to south through the middle of the property, and there are many logging trails on the Property. The geology team has been able to park the truck next to the outcrops. The Project is underexplored in part because it is located outside E.G. Pye’s Georgia Lake Area map (Ontario Geological Survey, M2056, 1964), which has guided lithium pegmatite exploration in the area for many decades. The majority of the Property has had no historical exploration on it despite being so close to the Trans Canada Highway. The limited historical exploration on the Property consists of drilling in 1972 and 1973 in search of sulphides and prospecting in 2009 and 2011 also for sulphides. The Property’s geology is similar to Rock Tech Lithium’s Georgia Lake Project and is 9 km east of Rock Tech’s spodumene pegmatites. The geology is also similar to Balkan Mining and Minerals Limited’s Gorge Lithium Project and is located 4.7 km north of their spodumene pegmatites. Tearlach welcomes Aboriginal Consultation and has met with four First Nation communities (Animbiigoo Zaagi’igan Anishinaabek, Bingwi Neyaashi Anishinaabek, Biinjitiwaabik Zaaging Anishinaabek and the Red Rock Indian Band) with traditional territories on Georgina Stairs Property face-to-face on April 20 and 21, 2023. These meetings led to the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (“MOU”) dated May 9, 2023, with all four communities. Tearlach has also hired a member of the First Nation communities as a geological assistant to join geology team, as he has excellent knowledge of and experience hunting and fishing in project area.
