Brascan Gold Inc. Reports on New Critical Minerals Discovery in Newfoundland and Announces Private Placement

21.03.2023  |  Newsfile
Vancouver, March 21, 2023 - Brascan Gold Inc. (CSE: BRAS) ("Brascan" or the "Company") is pleased to announce completion of an exploration program on the Iceberg Vanadium, Titanium and Magnetite Project (the "Project" or the "Property") in Newfoundland, Canada. The program included extensive prospecting, drone work, site selection and shallow backpack drilling. Brascan holds an indirect 25% interest in the Project through its 25% ownership interest in North Atlantic Aggregates Inc. ("NAAI"), which it acquired in August 2022.

The exploration work in 2022 led to the discovery of the "Bailey Zone", potentially a Vanadium, Titanium and Magnetite ("VTM") deposit within a mineralized layered mafic intrusion on the mineral claim's 9.5 square kilometre land area.

Iceberg Project Results:

The 2022 shallow backpack drilling program highlights included 85m of BQ core drilling across 18 holes. Fe-Ti-V-P-Sc mineralization was found in all holes from surface with the deepest hole reaching 12.4m and ending in mineralization with the highest assayed interval. Scandium mineralization has been consistent in each hole ranging from 28-82 g/t with the best intercept being 66g/t over 8.8m. Drill intercept assay highlights include:

Fe2O3 17.76% over 12.4m incl. 27.2% over 0.8m
Magnetite 8.83% over 0.8m
TiO2 4.78% over 12.4m incl. 8.39% over 0.8m
V2O5 0.11% over 1m
P2O5 2.4% over 2m
Sc 66 g/t over 8.8m

Sampling work during the exploration program has been successful in locating highly enriched veins in 12 different locations within a 1.2km long x 1km wide area at the Property. These veins have produced the highest assays across the Property (Sample 702971 - 42.9% Fe2O3 w/ 21.56% Magnetite, 10.15% TiO2, 947 g/t V, 5390 g/t P and 92 g/t Sc) and will be the focus of the 2023 exploration program.

Brascan and NAAI have explored less than 20% of the Property and believe there is potential to discover more of these high-grade veins across the Project.

In 2023, the Company intends to carry out a $650,000 exploration program, focused on finishing the access road to the new Bailey Zone, 3D geophysics testing to a depth of 2km and a maiden 1000m diamond drilling program. Brascan and NAAI also intent to complete prospecting on the remaining 80% of the Project. The Project is fully permitted for the 2023 season. The cost of the 2023 program is anticipated to be covered by the partners of NAAI, on a pro rata basis.

Alex Bailey, CEO of NAAI, states "We would like to thank Brascan and its team for their support and partnership with NAAI. Our first year has been a tremendous success in identifying, exploring and developing our projects with exceptional results. We are excited to advance our new critical minerals discovery."

Balbir Johal, CEO of Brascan, said "Our recent acquisition of a 25% interest in North Atlantic Aggregates Inc. in Newfoundland is paying off. The new discovery of critical minerals on the Iceberg VTM project will be a major focus for the BRAS/NAAI Joint Venture in 2023."

Private Placement

The Company is pleased to announce a non-brokered private placement (the "Private Placement") of up to 20,000,000 units (each a "Unit") of the Company at a price of $0.04 per Unit, for aggregate gross proceeds of up to $800,000. Each Unit will consist of one (1) common share (a "Common Share") of the Company, and one-half of one (1/2) Common Share purchase warrant (each whole warrant, a "Warrant"), with each Warrant to entitle the holder to acquire one (1) additional Common Share for a period of two (2) years from the date of issuance at an exercise price of $0.10.

In connection with the Private Placement, the Company may pay certain finders (each, a "Finder") a cash commission and/or issue such Finders non-transferable share purchase warrants.

The Company intends to use the proceeds from the Private Placement for exploration expenditures on the Iceberg VTM project, the Quebec-Li and Brazil-Li lithium properties in Quebec and Brazil and the Alegre Gold property and for business development and general corporate purposes.
