FMST Foremost Clean Energy Ltd

Foremost Lithium Resource & Technology Ltd. (NASDAQ: FMST) (CSE: FAT) (“Foremost Lithium”, “Foremost” or the “Company”), a North American hard-rock lithium exploration company, is pleased to announce that is has successfully completed its 2024 winter diamond drilling program on its Zoro property, which was previously announced in the Company’s press release dated February 13, 2024. The Company completed 5,826 meters, 21 diamond drill holes targeting untested mineralization to the south-east of Dyke 1, the Company's maiden inferred resource of 1,074,567 tons at a grade of 0.91% Li2O, with a cut-off of 0.3%, as outlined in the Company’s filed Regulation SK-1300 Technical Report Summary (2023) and NI-43-101 Technical Report (2018).

Drilling results have demonstrated the continuity of lithium mineralization along Dyke 1, targeting new, untested areas proximal to the dyke, as well as infill areas along strike and at depth. In the west, the body is comprised of multiple near surface lithium-bearing pegmatites that range up to an apparent 17.9 m thickness; Multiple 50-meter step-outs, perpendicular to the strike of Dyke 1, were used to assess lateral continuity as well as the presence of at depth, extending Dyke 1 from a previous 265-meter strike length to greater than 400 meters. Spodumene was confirmed in drill core in several of the 50 metre step out extensions, providing promising potential for new resource calculation.

“We are pleased to announce the conclusion of a successful drill program on our Zoro Property, which we believe is likely to reflect a continuity of mineralized lithium along Dyke 1,” said Jason Barnard, President & CEO of Foremost Lithium. “As global lithium trends continue to straighten, we look forward to the final assay results, which provide the potential for us to pursue additional resource expansion on the Zoro property.”

The Company reported initial assay results (see press release dated April 08, 2024) on the first two holes confirming lithium mineralization spanning a cumulative length of 25.92 metres including 1.09% Li2O across 10 metres on drill hole FL24-010 and 1.52% Li2O in drill hole FL24-009 across 5.02 meters. A total of 973 drill core samples have been collected for assay and shipped to SGS Laboratories in Burnaby for detailed analysis. All remaining assays are still pending and are anticipated to be reviewed and completed in approximately 4 to 6 weeks.

*Data Verification / Quality Assurance and Quality Control

Due to the vertical orientation and variable nature of mineralization at the Company’s Dyke 1 deposit, the reported drill intersection lengths, derived from linear measurements along the drill core, may not accurately represent the true width of the mineralized zones. Best practice drilling techniques and geological interpretation were utilized to intersect mineralization in an orientation that approximates the true width as closely as feasible.

Dyke 1 – Future Potential

The body is still open in all directions indicating potential for continued resource expansion and subsequent future drill programs. Foremost will be reporting the results of all assays on a subsequent news release.
