Coloured Ties Applauds Azimut Exploration on Announcement of Drill Program on Its James Bay, Quebec Lithium Portfolio

Vancouver, British Columbia–(Newsfile Corp. – June 14, 2023) – Coloured Ties Capital Inc. (TSXV: TIE) (OTC Pink: APEOF) (FSE: 97A0) (“TIE” or the “Company”) is providing the following update on Coloured Ties ongoing push for Azimut Exploration Inc (Azimut) to explore its lithium projects portfolio in James Bay, Quebec.

Coloured Ties is a TSX-V listed investment issuer and holds investments in entities involved in James Bay, Quebec lithium exploration projects. These entities include Patriot Battery Metals, Winsome Resources, Superior International Mining, Q2 Metals Corp, Brunswick Exploration Inc. and privately held Quebec Pegmatite, Hertz Lithium, Canuck Lithium, Flowing Lithium. Coloured Ties is also a shareholder of Azimut and entities related to Coloured Ties management also own common shares of Azimut.

Coloured Ties invested in Azimut for the highly prospective lithium portfolio held by Azimut, some of which adjoin major discoveries by Patriot Battery Metals at their Corvette Lithium Discovery and Winsome Resources at their Cancet and Adina Lithium Discoveries and is pleased to learn of Azimut’s announcement and commencement of lithium focused exploration program on these properties.

On June 13,2023, Azimut issued a news release announcing the following:

“Azimut Exploration Inc. is preparing a minimum 1,500-metre diamond drilling program to test several excellent lithium targets on the Galinee property in the Eeyou Istchee James Bay region of Quebec. The Property is a 50/50 joint venture between Azimut and SOQUEM, operated by Azimut. Prospecting work at Galinee is planned to start after the restrictions related to current fire conditions are lifted. The drilling program is scheduled to start in August.

HIGHLIGHTS

The maiden drilling program will test the down-dip extent of the significant discovery reported by Winsome Resources (“Winsome”) on the adjacent Adina Property. At Adina, two east-west subparallel spodumene-bearing pegmatite zones have now been traced by drilling over a strike length of 830 metres for the Main Zone and 760 metres for the Footwall Zone (Winsome’s press release of May 10, 2023).

Public data suggests the two mineralized zones on Adina dip south toward the Galinee Property. The aim of the drilling program is two-fold: 1) intersect the down-dip extensions of Winsome’s Main and Footwall zones on Galinee, and 2) investigate the strong potential for additional subparallel spodumene-bearing pegmatites starting at shallow depth on Galinee, immediately south of but geometrically above Adina’s Main Zone (see Figures 10 and 11).”

The news release also summarizes Azimut renewed understanding of the James Bay Region “which appears to be an emerging mineral province for lithium” and highlights Azimuts portfolio of lithium projects:

“James Bay Region: an Emerging Mineral Province for Lithium (see Figures 1 to 11)

Already known lithium deposits and major occurrences are widely distributed across the James Bay region, which appears to be an emerging mineral province for lithium. The region shares several features in common with large spodumene-bearing pegmatite districts worldwide, especially Western Australia, including comparable tectono-metamorphic frameworks, ages and host lithologies.

As previously reported (see press releases of January 23, February 23 and May 17, 2023 ), several lithium-focused exploration programs will be undertaken by Azimut this summer on the Pikwa, Dalmas and Pontois properties held in a joint venture with SOQUEM. In addition, Azimut has identified strong lithium potential on its Corvet Property (877 claims), Kaanaayaa Property (421 claims) and a newly generated James Bay Lithium project (13 blocks of claims, 2,940 claims), all these properties being held at 100% by the Company.

Azimut’s management cautions that results or discoveries on surrounding properties are not necessarily indicative of mineralization hosted on the Company’s properties.”

Coloured Ties is pleased with this shift by Azimut towards a lithium focused exploration business model and continues to believe in the very high prospects on Azimut’s lithium portfolio in the James Bay region.

Coloured Ties remains committed to working with Azimut management to assist the company in maximizing shareholder value thru its lithium portfolio in the James Bay region and may acquire or sell its common share holdings in Azimut in the context of the market and exploration results.
