VANCOUVER, British Columbia, June 12, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Arbor Metals Corp. (“Arbor” or the “Company”) (TSXV: ABR, FWB: 432) announces the successful completion of a detailed spectral analysis of the Jarnet Lithium project located in the James Bay region of Quebec. This comprehensive study marks a significant milestone in advancing our understanding of the lithium potential in this promising area.

In the analysis conducted by our team of experts, four discrete datasets were meticulously correlated with 81 lithium-bearing rock chip samples collected at the Jarnet site. Additionally, we carefully examined the presence of significant spodumene-bearing pegmatites on adjoining projects. By integrating multiple data sources, including resistivity measurements and gas emissions, we aimed to gain comprehensive insights into the lithium-rich geological formations of the area.

The findings from this study hold great promise for the Jarnet Lithium project and the surrounding region. The spectral analysis allowed us to identify and characterize various lithological units indicative of lithium mineralization potential. These valuable insights will guide our exploration efforts and decision-making processes as we progress with the project.

"We are thrilled to have completed this comprehensive spectral analysis of the Jarnet Lithium project," said Mark Ferguson, CEO of Arbor Metals. "The results obtained from this study provide us with a solid foundation to further explore the lithium potential in this region and advance our understanding of the geological factors influencing the presence of lithium-bearing deposits.”

The Jarnet Lithium project, initially identified by the Company in 2021, has consistently demonstrated strong lithium prospects, making it a key focus area for our company's growth strategy. This recent analysis further confirms the project's potential and reinforces our commitment to unlocking its full potential.

Arbor remains dedicated to responsible and sustainable exploration practices. As we progress with the Jarnet Lithium project, we prioritize environmental stewardship and community engagement, ensuring that our activities align with the highest social and environmental responsibility standards.

Moving forward, Arbor will leverage the valuable insights gained from this spectral analysis to inform our exploration program at the Jarnet site. We remain committed to unlocking the significant lithium potential in the St. James Bay region and look forward to updating our stakeholders as we achieve key milestones in our journey.
