VANCOUVER, BC, Nov. 8, 2023 /CNW/ - FE Battery Metals Corp. (OTCQB: FEMFF) (WKN: A2JC89) ("FE" or the "Company) is pleased to provide further details on the most recent acquisition, the Pontax West Lithium Property ("PWL") as described in the news release dated October 17, 2023. The Company has recently concluded a work program of prospecting, mapping, and sampling with an aim to identify pegmatite targets for further exploration.

Field work on the PWL claims has now located a total of 23 significant pegmatite outcrops that range in size from 2 meters in width to several much larger over tens of meters outcrops that will need further clearing. Samples collected from the pegmatites were field tested with a handheld Laser-Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy (LIBS) instrument prior to submittal of selected samples with the independent laboratory. LIBS is a rapid, portable, in situ atomic spectroscopy technique used to measure the concentration of major and trace elements, like lithium. Assay results are pending, however, the LIBS testing revealed that approximately 30% of the 117 collected samples contained highly anomalous lithium in the range of 100-1,000 parts per million Li.

In addition, the Company is pleased to announce a non-brokered private placement financing for total gross proceeds of up to $1,700,000. The financing will consist of the issuance of up to 1,250,000 common shares at $0.40 per share as well as the issuance of up to 2,666,667 flow-through units at $0.45 per flow-through unit with one half of one warrant valid for two years from the date of closing. Each whole warrant will entitle the holder to purchase an additional common share for a price of $ 0.65 cents per share.

In connection with the above-noted non-brokered private placement, a finder's fee of 6% cash will be paid to eligible finders in accordance with the policies of the Canadian Securities Exchange. Closing of the proposed private placement is subject to obtaining all required approvals, including from the CSE and any other regulatory approval. All securities issued pursuant to the private placement will be subject to a four-month hold period plus one day under applicable securities laws.

The proceeds from the private placement will be used for general working capital and to its further exploration efforts on its properties located in Quebec.
