Blackbird Samples Additional Massive Ilmenite at the Big Tio and NS Trend Targets

18.06.2024 | 14:00 Uhr | Newsfile

Vancouver, June 18, 2024 - Blackbird Critical Metals Corp. (CSE: BBRD) (FSE: N79) (OTCQB: BBCMF) ("Blackbird" or the "Company") is pleased to provide an initial update on the recently announced ground exploration program. The goal of this program is to assess additional targets highlighted by the SkyTEM survey completed in the fall of 2023 at the Tyee Critical Metals Project, located 130 km north of Havre-Saint-Pierre in Quebec.

Highlights:

  • Massive ilmenite was sampled in outcrop for the first time at the southern end of the Big Tio target
  • Ground exploration further detailed the Big Tio and NS Trend targets through beep mat prospecting and mapping
  • Massive ilmenite found to occur both with accessory sulphide minerals and magnetite, giving the occurrences a varying conductive and geophysical signature, an important finding for the planning of future exploration programs

"The current ground exploration program is progressing well, and crews have been able to effectively assess new targets as well as further define the known drill targets," stated Dr. Jaap Verbaas, CEO of Blackbird. "We remain confident in our ability to drill this year and, the current ground program continues to validate our confidence in the project through a much better understanding of how our geophysical data relates to massive ilmenite that continues to be identified on the project."

Additional massive ilmenite uncovered at the Big Tio target
Crews have identified additional massive ilmenite mineralization at the Big Tio target, further defining this substantial target. This sample was taken at the south end of the 1.5 km long anomaly where only float was found during the previous program.

Another sample was taken in an area where ground geophysical tools did not identify any conductivity and only very weak magnetism. This implies that the geophysical response of the massive ilmenite found to date was dominantly through accessory minerals such as sulphides and lesser magnetite.

NS Trend Target
Further prospecting and sampling on the NS trend has yielded additional massive ilmenite samples within the anomaly. The NS trend is almost completely covered under thin overburden, complicating detailed geological mapping. However, along the boundary of the NS trend anomaly exploration crews have uncovered thin lenses of ~2 m wide massive ilmenite. The NS trend itself is likely an NS trending lens. Geophysical and geological data collected to date suggests a strike length of up to 3 km.

About the Tyee Critical Metals Project
The Tyee Critical Metals Project is a 100% owned 625 km2 critical metals project with surface mineralization of copper, nickel, cobalt, titanium, vanadium and scandium 130 km north of Havre St. Pierre in Quebec. There are no encumbrances or underlying NSR interests on the property.

The project covers a large portion of the Havre St. Pierre anorthosite complex. The HSP Complex is an intrusive suite of rocks to the north of Havre-Saint-Pierre, Quebec. The complex contains the Lac Tio titanium mine, the largest solid ilmenite deposit in the world, owned by Rio Tinto. This mine has been producing high grade titanium for the past 75 years and is located 100 km to the south of the Tyee Critical Metals Project.

Blackbird Critical Metals acquired the Tyee Critical Metals Project in 2022 and flew a property wide SkyTEM geophysical survey of over 3,500 line km at 200 m line spacing. The detailed geophysical data revealed over 60 conductive targets that were followed up with ground exploration. The ground exploration yielded 8 large occurrences of massive ilmenite with grades of up to 36% TiO2 and 4 occurrences with nickel and copper mineralization of up to 0.75% Ni and 0.81% Cu in gossans.
