Green Bridge Metals Corporation (CNSX: GRBM) ("Green Bridge" or the "Company" - https://www.commodity-tv.com/ondemand/companies/profil/green-bridge-metals-corp/) is pleased to announce the completion of a geophysical study of the Oxide Ultramafic Intrusions (OUI) at the Skibo and Wyman-Siphon prospects within the South Contact Zone (SCZ) (Figure 1) that host titanium-copper-nickel-vanadium mineralization. Based on a positive correlation between mineralization and the OUIs, the Company has contracted Geotech LTD to conduct a 721 line kilometer VTEM survey in Q4 of this year. The new VTEM survey will focus on developing drill targets through the acquisition of new geophysical data for the Titac – Boulder prospect areas, which do not have a modern geophysical survey.
David Suda, CEO stated: “The Company’s recent site visit and re-interpretation of existing data has increased our confidence that the properties in the SCZ (South Contact Zone) in Minnesota are well mineralized. It is a rare opportunity to see such clear, yet underexplored targets in an area with historically rich polymetallic endowment. We look forward to rapidly and continuously advancing the Company’s leverage to the increasing global demand for ‘green metals’”.
The geophysical analysis has yielded positive results for identifying OUI bodies through a combination of magnetic and Virtual Time Domain Electro Magnetics (VTEM) geophysical methods. Along the SCZ, OUIs consistently yield significant TiO2-V-Cu+Ni mineralization where they are intersected in drilling. This study serves to highlight the geophysical expression of OUIs at Wyman-Siphon and Skibo where known massive and disseminated copper (Cu)- nickel (Ni) mineralization occurs. Several new OUI targets were developed based on this geophysical evaluation at the Wyman-Siphon and Skibo prospects (Figure 2) and are considered high priority drill targets.
Detailed Discussion:
Results of the geophysical data analysis at the Wyman-Siphon area shows that historical drilling within two of the newly identified OUI regions yielded intercepts of 0.6 - 2.4% copper (Cu) and 0.22 - 0.45% nickel (Ni) over a variety of thicknesses. At the Skibo prospect, historical drilling within previously identified OUIs yielded intercepts of 2.0 - 3.8% Cu and 1.0 - 6.4% Ni over a variety of thicknesses. Substantial ground within the Skibo prospect, host to several VTEM conductive anomalies, remain untested at Skibo.
At the Titac South prospect, a historical TiO2 mineral resource exists with disseminated Cu-Ni-V mineralization accompanying the TiO2 (see August 25, 2024, News Release). Titac North also contains historical intercepts of TiO2- Cu-Ni-V mineralization. Both Titac South and Titac North are associated with relative magnetic high zones in the geophysical data. Importantly, another magnetic high zone has been identified at Titac East to the southeast of Titac South on the Titac property (Figure 3). Though similar in its magnetic response to known mineralization at Titac, this area has not been drill tested. Based on the findings above, the Company believes a VTEM survey over the Titac and Boulder prospect areas will highlight new drill targets along the Southern SCZ. The Company looks forward to informing the market of its drill plans based on a comprehensive analysis of historical and newly commissioned VTEM surveys in due course.
The historical MRE for the SCZ was calculated prior to the implementation of the standards set forth in NI 43-101 and current CIM standards for mineral resource estimation. Resource definitions, terminology, and reporting standards have changed significantly since these series of reports. The estimates in these reports are all considered historical in nature and a QP has not done sufficient work to evaluate these resources as current resources. Therefore, the Company and the authors of this report are treating these estimates as historical in nature.
QP Statement:
Michael Dufresne, M.Sc., P.Geol., P.Geo., is a qualified person as defined by National Instrument 43-101 and has reviewed and approved the scientific and technical information in this press release.

About Green Bridge Metals
Green Bridge Metals Corporation (formerly Mich Resources Ltd.) is a Canadian based exploration company focused on acquiring ‘battery metal’ rich mineral assets and the development of the South Contact Zone (the “Property”) along the basal contact of the Duluth Intrusion, north of Duluth, Minnesota. The South Contact Zone contains bulk-tonnage copper-nickel and titanium-vanadium in ilmenite hosted in ultramafic to oxide ultramafic intrusions. The Property has exploration targets for bulk-tonnage Ni mineralization, high grade Ni-Cu-PGE magmatic sulfide mineralization and titanium.
