September 14, 2023. Vancouver, B.C - Vital Battery Metals Inc. (“Vital” or the “Company”) (CSE: VBAM | OTC: VBAMF | FRA: C0O) is pleased to announce the successful completion of the Phase 1 Exploration Program (the “Program”) at its Vent Copper Project (the “Project”) in the Alberni Mining Division, located in southwest British Columbia. The Program was executed in collaboration with Geomap Exploration Inc. and was aimed at acquiring essential data for the development of high-priority drill targets.
Over the course of four weeks in May and June 2023, the Program encompassed prospecting, mapping, sampling, and ground geophysical surveys. Target areas identified in the 2021 technical report were thoroughly investigated. Notably, special attention was given to the Vent-Ken showings, which had previously demonstrated high copper and silver values in sampling. A comprehensive sampling and mapping program over other claims blocks was also conducted to further evaluate these areas. Geological mapping and soil sampling efforts spanned the entire Project, focusing on regions where magnetic surveys indicated the presence of near-surface features.
Adrian Lamoureux, Vital’s Chief Executive Officer and President commented, “The Company is looking forward to advancing the Vent Copper Project as early results have shown favorable geology for a potential discovery of copper. We intend to continue exploring the target areas identified through previous sampling and surveying.”
Vital remains committed to unlocking the full potential of the Project and will continue to provide updates on the progress of this exciting endeavor. The exploration data is being compiled by the Company and will be reported as soon as available.

About the Vent Property
The Project encompasses approximately 1,561 hectares of crown land in the Alberni Mining Division located in British Columbia, Canada. A key feature of the property is an access forestry road that traverses through its center in a northwest-southeasterly direction, covering a substantial portion of the Project. Geologically, the claims are underlain by rocks of the Karmutsen Formation and Island intrusions. Regionally, the Karmutsen Formation consists of Pillow-basalt, pillow-breccia, basaltic lava, and minor tuff and limestone, ranging from Upper Triassic to Lower Jurassic in age. However, the volcanic rocks within the property predominantly exhibit andesitic composition, characterized by shades of grey-green to dark green. These rocks are generally very fine-grained, occasionally medium-grained, massive, and commonly uniform in appearance. Alterations such as chlorite and epidote were observed in some areas, alongside veins and veinlets of milky quartz Pyrite is highly prevalent and may constitute up to 15-20% of the rock composition. Amygdaloidal basalt, sporadic chalcopyrite occurrences, and altered mafic and flow rocks have been reported in select regions. The Island intrusions include Quartz-Monzonite, Hornblende-Monzonite, Quartz-Diorite, and Diorite, with quartz-monzonite and quartz-diorite being the dominant rock types.
