  • Further drilling program of 70,000m to be completed throughout 2024.

North American lithium producer Sayona Mining Limited (“Sayona”) (ASX:SYA; OTCQB:SYAXF) announced today the results from 34 new drillholes totalling 7,853 metres at its Moblan Lithium Project (Sayona 60%; Investissement Quebec 40%), demonstrating the potential of a single, large continuous orebody.

All the drilling results from the latest exploration program are now complete, validated and released. The 2023 drill program has been successful in demonstrating the potential to increase the mineral resource base at Moblan. The drilling program was designed to test extensions to mineralisation and provide in-fill data for the upgrade of Mineral Resource categories from the 2023 MRE. Individual dykes have been documented and modelled comprising the Main Zone, South Zone, Inter Zone and Moleon domain. The latest drilling results include the identification of high-grade lithium mineralisation outside the MRE pit shells, particularly in the Inter Zone Area, and support potential conversion of some of the Inferred resources to the Indicated category within the MRE pit shells.

The new drillhole results reinforce the project’s status as the centrepiece of Sayona’s Eeyou-Istchee James Bay hub in northern Quebec, and highlights its potential to expand the existing mineral resource base at Moblan.

Sayona’s Interim CEO, James Brown commented: “ Moblan continues to present outstanding high-grade drilling results over wide intersections. The deposit now extends over ~2.3km E-W, ~1.2km N-S and to depth of ~450m.

"Today's announcement emphasises the continuation of known mineralisation and areas of in-fill between zones, suggesting considerable potential for uncovering additional extensions to this premium lithium deposit.

“Recent results from both Moblan and NAL reinforce the quality and potential of both the Abitibi-Temiscamingue and Eeyou Istchee James Bay hubs which provides Sayona an abundance of options and potential flexibility for development of an integrated lithium business in Quebec.”

Notes (1): Table 1 presents all new results above a Metal Factor greater than 25. Bold text indicates Metal Factor greater than 50.

Notes (2): Methodology for calculating all drilling intercepts presented in the tables and figures in this press release. Drillhole intercepts query and calculations are made automatically using the economic composite tool in Leapfrog software (v.2023.2.1). The selection algorithm was applied to all the drilling results and may not represent true thickness. Calculations are made according to the following steps. Step no.1: Assigned lithology code (ex: pegmatites, gabbro, granodiorite) to each individual sample based on majority code (i.e. rule of 51%). Step no.2: Assignment of a 0% Li2O content to all lithologies other than spodumene pegmatites (e.g. "waste lithologies" such as gabbro and volcanic rocks). Step no. 3: Calculation of intercepts based on a minimum grade of 0.25% Li2O over a minimum core length of 2m (and no maximum length), with a tolerance allowing the inclusion of 2m waste gap up to a maximum of 20m cumulative length of waste inside an intercept. Step no.4: Selection of the drilling results highlights based on grades, lengths, and Metal Factor ( Li2O grade (%) x core length (m)).

Moblan Geological Interpretation - A Single Extensive LCT Pegmatite Mineralised System

New drilling results and ongoing geological modelling illustrate the potential connection between the Main, South, New South, Inter and Moleon pegmatite dykes within a single extensive lithium-caesium-tantalum (LCT) mineralised system. The links that can now be established between the various sectors at Moblan will potentially have a positive impact on the geological continuities of an updated mineral resource estimate. The footprint of the Moblan mineralised system now extends over ~2.3km E-W, ~1.2km N-S and to depth of ~450m from surface and bounded by a NE-trending shear zone in the west.

Structural analysis of the many different sets of dykes including the E-W sub-horizontal pegmatites (Main, South and New South) and N-S sub-vertical pegmatites (mostly in the Inter and Moleon areas) and geochemical signatures (i.e. evolution of K/Rb, K/Cs element ratios, fractionation geochemical indicator of the pegmatites) points towards emplacement and formation of Moblan LCT pegmatites system during a continuum of deformation and magmatic evolution. Pegmatites dykes being crystallized from single and multi-stage events with different generations of dykes where geometry of the dykes reflects the evolution from ductile-brittle to brittle deformation.

Geochemistry of the eastern pegmatites of Moleon is different from the Main, South and New South pegmatites. In addition to structural orientations, whole-rock geochemical signatures indicate that the N-S pegmatites are more evolved (and thus enriched in Tantalum) than the E-W ones. These different groups of dykes likely reflect a pulsating emplacement of different generations of LCT pegmatites (the E-W ones first, followed by the N-S ones). The emplacement of both generations (Moblan and Moleon) is structurally controlled by a NE-trending deformation corridor during the transcurrent tectonics (D3 regional deformation event).

South and New South Pegmatites

Highlights from the South and New South areas pegmatites are presented in Table 2. The South pegmatite complex comprises E-W trending spodumene pegmatite dykes, nearly sub-horizontal or dipping gently to the north (dip angle of 10-15°). New drilling intersected a pegmatite dyke with assays from the thicker section from the central area returned intercepts of 1.25% Li2O over 32.30m for the drillhole 1331-23-608, 1.26% Li2O over 31.80m for the drillhole 1331-23-617, and 1.63% Li2O over 39.55m for the drillhole 1331-23-678.

Previous and new results confirm the presence of wide flat dykes (up to 50m of estimated true width) and a couple of smaller parallel-trending dykes that may extend to the east, to the west and to the south. These additional diamond drillholes in the South and New South areas will potentially allow to upgrade the Inferred mineral resources to Indicated category in a future mineral resource estimate update.

Moblan Main Pegmatites

Highlights from the Main pegmatites are presented in Table 3. Previous and additional drilling confirms the northern extension of Main pegmatites at depths of 160-190m as expected considering their dip angle of 20°-30° toward the north. These new assays with intercepts of 1.74% Li2O over 14.90m in hole 1331-23-541 will also potentially enable the conversion of Inferred mineral resources to Indicated category.

Inter Pegmatites

Highlights from the Inter zone pegmatites are presented in Table 4. Inter zone is considered as a high potential area where two populations of LCT pegmatites are intersected and characterized by different structural and geochemical features. Based on previous and new results, the E-W trending and sub-horizontal pegmatite system of Moblan is crosscut by the N-S striking pegmatite dykes with a much stronger dip, known as the Moleon dyke swarm. This results in a series of mineralised pegmatite intervals with variable thickness. The best intercepts returned 1.44% Li2O over 41.80m from drillhole 1331-23-515 and 1.37% Li2O over 40.00m from drillhole 1331-23-516 (Figure 1 and 2). All these significant assays confirm the continuity of the mineralisation to the east and at depth and potentially expand the mineral resources between the known Moblan and Moleon deposits (Figure 1).

These examples should not be taken as

Sampling at the Moblan Lithium Project (the ‘Project’) is adequate, of good quality and comes from core drilling.
Core samples are obtained from diamond drilling (NQ and HQ diameter core).
New results from this release were from NQ diameter core.

Geological logging of recovered drill core visually identified pegmatite and its constituent mineralogy to
determine the intervals for sampling. Lithium-bearing spodumene is easily identified. Sampling has been
determined on geological characteristics and ranges from between 0.25 m and 1.6 m in length. The core was
cut using a diamond saw core-cutter, and half-cores were sampled. All pegmatite material intersected downhole

security.
Sample security is controlled by tracking samples from the drill rig through core logging, sampling, laboratory
preparation and analysis, and database entry. Drill core was delivered from the drill rig to the core yard every
shift. On completion of geological and geotechnical logging, SOQUEM or Sayona personnel and/or their
representatives finished processing the core and sent the samples to the laboratory.

programme are satisfactory.
Independent (Technominex) and internal (Sayona) CPs also conducted site visits and reviewed the application
of core logging and sampling protocols and procedures.
The sample preparation, security and analytical procedures are consistent with current industry standards and
are appropriate and acceptable for the styles of mineralisation identified and will be appropriate for use in
mineral resource estimation. There are no identified drilling, sampling or recovery factors that materially impact
the adequacy and reliability of the results of the drilling programme on the Project.

Moblan is situated in the northwestern part of the Province of Québec, Canada.
The Moblan Property, host to the lithium mineral resources outlined in the 2023 MRE consists of 20 claims
(roughly 433 ha or 4.3 km2) held by Sayona Nord (60%) and Investissement Québec (40%). The Moblan Property
is subject to a 1.5 to 2.5% Gross Overriding Revenue (‘GOR’) royalty payable to Lithium Royalty Corporation.
The security of the tenure held at the time of
reporting along with any known impediments
to obtaining a licence to operate in the area.
All claims are in good standing as of June 5, 2024. Claims are currently owned 60% by Sayona Nord Inc.
(101628) and 40% by Investissement Québec (19383). On 31 December, 2023, SOQUEM transferred its 40%
participation in Moblan Property claims to Investissement Québec. Investissement Québec is now a 40% partner
in the Moblan Property (according to the document entitled “Moblan joint venture agreement deed of
assignment” dated 31 December, 2023. There are no impediments that have been identified for operating in the
Project areas.
Exploration done by
other parties
Acknowledgment and appraisal of exploration
by other parties.
The current Properties cover and overlap many historical mining and exploration properties. The boundaries
and names of those properties have evolved following changes in ownership, option agreements, or land
packages as claims were abandoned or added. Exploration work has been varied (e.g., prospecting, mapping,
geophysics, geochemistry, drilling, etc.) and has focused on a variety of commodities (e.g., precious metals,
base metals, and, more recently, critical and strategic minerals).
Interest in lithium in the area began in the 1960s inside the current limits of the Moblan Property. Surface
prospecting and trenching performed by Muscocho Explorations Ltd in 1963 resulted in the discovery of
numerous lithium-bearing dykes. A few of the dykes had been sampled earlier and revealed high grades of
lithium oxide. Twenty-eight (28) lithium-bearing pegmatite dykes have been discovered in six (6) separate areas
on the Moblan Property between 1992 and 2004, during work conducted by Abitibi Lithium Corporation.
The current Project has been the subject of significant exploration and drilling efforts, including geophysics,
geochemistry, historical studies, metallurgical testing and engineering studies.
Geology Deposit type, geological setting and style of
mineralisation.
The Properties host several mineral occurrences and showings. These (and other adjacent) occurrences
highlight the strong potential of the area for (i) Li pegmatite deposits; (ii) Cu-Zn VMS deposits; (iii) Au orogenic
quartz-carbonate veins and disseminated sulphide deposits; (iv) Ni-Cu-PGE magmatic sulphide deposits; and
(v) Au-Cu porphyry systems (e.g., Troilus Gold).
The economic potential of the Moblan Property is for lithium mineralisation (spodumene pegmatites). Lithium-
bearing pegmatites were grouped into four (4) dyke swarms: Main, South, Inter and Moleon. Each corresponds
to a series of stacked lithium-bearing dykes of variable thicknesses.

Criteria JORC Code explanation Commentary
The Main group comprises 21 lithium pegmatite dykes oriented E-W and dipping gently to the north (N280°/-
20°). This swarm extends laterally E-W for approximately 1500 m and 500 m N-S. In this group, three (3) dykes
have an average intercept length greater than 10 m.
The South group comprises 20 dykes oriented E-W and almost sub-horizontal or dipping gently to the south
(N080°/-10°). This swarm extends laterally E-W for approximately 750 m and 500 m N-S. In this group, five (5)
dykes have an average intercept length greater than 10 m.
The Inter group comprises 17 dykes oriented ENE and dipping moderately to the north (N260°/-20°). This swarm
extends laterally E-W for approximately 750 m and 300 m N-S. In this group, only one (1) dyke has an average
intercept length greater than 10m.
The Moleon group comprises 17 dykes oriented N-S and dipping steeply to the west (N180°/-70°). This swarm
extends laterally N-S for approximately 750 m and 250 m E-W. In this group, two (2) dykes have an average
intercept length greater than 10 m.
Drill hole Information A summary of all information material to the
understanding of the exploration results
including a tabulation of the following
information for all Material drill holes:

easting and northing of the drill hole collar

elevation or RL (Reduced Level –
elevation above sea level in metres) of the
drill hole

collar dip and azimuth of the hole

down hole length and interception depth

hole length.
Refer to previous exploration releases for the drill hole information of the previously reported intercepts (ASX
announcements of 26 April 2022; 27 June 2022; 17 April 2023, 11 July 2023, 22 October 2023, and 26 May
2024).
Material information on the Project’s drill holes is illustrated on the figures (plan views, sections, results tables)
in ASX Announcements of April, July and October 2023, and in May 2024.
The coordinates in the figures and the tables are in metres (UTM NAD83 Zone 18), and the elevation is in metres
above sea level.
The selection of the most significant drill hole intercepts was based on high metal factors (%Li2O content x
length in metres) for intervals in spodumene pegmatite dykes. In ASX Announcements of April, July and October
2023, the table includes collar dip and azimuth of the hole, down hole length, interception depth, and hole length.
Depending on the azimuths and plunges of the selected boreholes, the drilled lengths are apparent and do not
reflect true thicknesses.
The CPs were provided with all necessary detailed drill hole information to complete the 2023 MRE and 2023
DFS.
If the exclusion of this information is justified
on the basis that the information is not
Material and this exclusion does not detract
from the understanding of the report, the
Competent Person should clearly explain why
this is the case.
The Project is at an advanced stage of exploration, with a reported mineral resource, ongoing engineering
studies, and a substantial database of 623 drillholes (109,299.32m). All the details are therefore not presented
in table form.
Drilling resumed on the Project after the publication of the 2023 MRE and while engineering studies on the
Project were still being carried out. The new 2023 drilling results are not included in the 2023 MRE. The CPs do
not believe that their omission will materially affect the 2023 MRE. The new drilling results will have an influence
mainly on the periphery of the current resources, potentially contributing to the conversion of resources
(upgrading) and adding new resources (ASX Announcements of July and October 2023, and May 2024).

Data aggregation
methods
In reporting Exploration Results, weighting
averaging
techniques,
maximum
and/or
minimum grade truncations (e.g. cutting of
high grades) and cut-off grades are usually
Material and should be stated.
Significant assay intercepts are reported as the weighted average over total pegmatite core length.
Li2O grades do not show great variations (coefficient of variation of 0.85). Based on statistical analysis, no
capping is required, and no capping was applied to the Project’s Li2O grades.
Refer to previous exploration releases for the drill hole information of previously reported intercepts.
Where aggregate intercepts incorporate short
lengths of high grade results and longer
lengths of low grade results, the procedure
used for such aggregation should be stated
and
some
typical
examples
of
such
aggregations should be shown in detail.
Aggregation of Li2O grades to obtain the weighted average of a significant intercept is constrained within single
pegmatite dykes.
The assumptions used for any reporting of
metal equivalent values should be clearly
stated.
No metal equivalent values were used.
Relationship between
mineralisation widths
and intercept lengths


These relationships are particularly important
in the reporting of Exploration Results.
The reported significant assay intervals represent apparent widths. Refer to previous exploration releases for
the drill hole information of previously reported intercepts.
If the geometry of the mineralisation with
respect to the drill hole angle is known, its
nature should be reported.
Drilling is not always perpendicular to the dip of mineralisation, and true widths are less than downhole widths.
Lithium pegmatites correspond to a series of stacked dykes of variable true thicknesses.
If it is not known and only the down hole
lengths are reported, there should be a clear
statement to this effect (e.g. ‘down hole
length, true width not known’).
Pegmatite intercepts (%Li2O over m) are expressed over downhole length (not over true width).
Diagrams Appropriate maps and sections (with scales)
and tabulations of intercepts should be
included for any significant discovery being
reported These should include, but not be
limited to a plan view of drill hole collar
locations and appropriate sectional views.
Refer to the figures in previous resources and exploration releases (ASX Announcement of April, July and
October 2023, and May 2024) for illustrations of previously reported holes and assays and for the block model
results of the 2023 MRE.
