VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / July 24, 2024 / Rover Critical Minerals Corp. (TSXV:ROVR)(OTCQB:ROVMF)(FSE:4XO) (“Rover” or the “Company“) is pleased to announce that it has entered into a non-binding letter of intent to acquire a 100% interest in the Silicon Valley Silica Project, near Golden, British Columbia (the “Transaction“) Orichalcum Holdings Inc. (the “Vendor“).

The 1,760-hectare (4,349-acre) Silicon Valley Silica Project, located adjacent to the town of Golden, B.C. and the Sinova Quartz silica quarry, hosts approximately 12 kilometers of regionally mapped strike length of the high-purity quartzite beds of the Ordovician Mount Wilson Formation. Sampling in 2017 encountered up to 99.9% SiO₂ and an average of 99.6% SiO₂ along a traverse of approximately 190 metres, along strike with the adjacent Sinova Quartz silica quarry. Deleterious elements were found to be very low, with an average of 0.03% Fe₂O₃, 0.02% CaO, 0.02% MgO, 0.01% P₂O₅, and 0.10% Al₂O₃. Details of the Project are outlined below.

As the demand for renewable energy sources like solar power grows, driven by global initiatives to combat climate change, the market for high-purity silica (also known as high-purity quartz, or HPQ) is poised to expand significantly. With the acquisition of Silicon Valley Silica Project, Rover is poised to gain a strategic position in the rapidly expanding critical minerals market.

Judson Culter, CEO of Rover states, “On June 10^th, the Government of Canada announced that silicon metal had been added to Canada’s Critical Minerals List, in addition to announcing additional funding for the semiconductor and chip manufacturing industry. The U.S. Government also has silicon on its critical minerals list, therefore making the project potentially eligible for DoD or DoE funding through the Defense Production Act Investment (DPAI) program. Through this Transaction, Rover is gaining a strategic and timely position in what is becoming one of the most sought-after high-purity silica districts in Canada with a project located adjacent to one of the largest high-purity silica producers in the country. Silica, despite being the second most abundant mineral in the Earth’s crust, is rare in its purest form, and is in increasingly high demand as a crucial element in the production of photovoltaics (PV) and semiconductors. Management closely follows industry trends, evident from companies like Intel, which is on track to build the world’s largest chip-making complex in Ohio, with $20 billion invested by the company to date. Factoring in macro-economic demand for chips in AI applications, along with the geopolitical risks of Taiwan holding current market share of the chip industry, this deal has a bright future.”

Paddy J. Moylan, Rover’s President and Director, comments, “Silicon Valley is a deal we have been working on for some time. Silicon Valley is special. It is transformational for our company and investors. This project has huge potential. We already have boots on the ground within a short walk to a world-class asset, which is exciting! I will be on site as work progresses. Importantly, from an ESG point of view, it ticks many boxes. I look forward to finalising the definitive agreement imminently. Rover has formed a terrific working relationship in the area, and I am thrilled that Case Lewis, will join us as our exploration manager. I have come to know Case well and he will be a strong advocate for Rover and Silicon Valley. We will keep investors informed of progress at all material times as we advance towards positive news flow.”

About High Purity Silica

Silicon, which is derived from high-purity silica, is the primary material in the majority of solar panels, also called photovoltaic (PV) cells. Silicon metal is essential to the manufacture of computer chips and semiconductors, used in almost any and everything electronic. It is also used in aluminum production for aerospace applications, as well as anodes in emergent next-generation lithium-ion batteries. Although silica is abundant in the Earth’s crust, silica deposits with a high degree of purity and volume – those which are in economic demand – particularly in excess of 99% SiO₂, are a relatively rare occurrence, especially in Canada and the U.S.

About Canada’s Critical Minerals List June 10 Update

The Critical Minerals List was first released in 2021 and consisted of 31 minerals which were deemed essential to Canada’s green and digital economies. On June 10, 2024, the Government of Canada released an updated Critical Minerals List which increased the number of critical minerals to 34, now including silicon metal.

To be included in the Critical Minerals List, the Government of Canada must consider that: (1) the supply chain of the material is threatened; (2) there is a reasonable chance of the mineral being produced by Canada and; (3) the mineral is considered to be one of the following:

• essential to Canada’s economic or national security; or
• required for the national transition to a sustainable low-carbon and digital economy; or
• positions Canada as a sustainable and strategic partner within global supply chains.

Project Highlights – Silicon Valley Project, Golden, B.C.

• 1,760 hectares (4,349 acres) adjacent to the town of Golden, B.C., and less than 1km from the Canadian Pacific Railway Golden Rail Yard with easy year-round access. (Figure 1)
• High-purity quartzite of the Ordovician Mount Wilson Formation with up to 12 km of regionally mapped strike length on the property and up to 300 metres apparent width at surface. Bedding strikes 120 to 140º and dips from 60 to 75º.
• On the same lithological unit and close to both Sinova Global’s Sinova Quartz quarry pit (500m to south) and the Moberly Silica Mine (9.0 km to north). Sinova Quartz has been permitted for over 1,000,000 tonnes of annual silica production. (1)
• The HCJ MINFILE occurrence on the Project was first reported in 1972 by Dr. L.B. Halferdahl, who characterized the quartzite unit as containing sequences with thicknesses of 30 metres or more of very white to grey high grade silica material, with no impurities being visible with examination even with a 20x hand lens and thus having the potential for ferrosilicon-grade material. The quartzite silica bed at the Silicon Valley Project was mapped to extend at least from the HCJ MINFILE occurrence at the north end of the current Property, to the Sinova Quartz quarry at the south end of the Property. (2)
• 2018 sampling extending from 50 metres from the boundary of the adjacent Sinova Quartz quarry tenure encountered up to 99.9% SiO₂ and an average of 99.6% SiO₂ from 7 grab samples taken over a traverse of approximately 190 metres, along strike from the Sinova Quartz quarry. Deleterious elements were found to be very low, with an average of 0.03% Fe₂O₃, 0.02% CaO, 0.02% MgO, 0.01% P₂O₅, and 0.10% Al₂O₃. Grab samples in the northern area of the Property yielded grades up to 99.1% SiO₂. (Figure 2) (3) *
• Also in 2018, 92 Resources Corp (now Patriot Battery Metals Inc (TSX:PMET)), the former owner of the majority of the Silicon Valley Project area, encountered grades of 99.11, 98.56 and 98.28% SiO₂ from grab samples in the northern area of the Property. (Figure 3) (4) *
• According to Sinova Global’s website, regarding their expansion at Sinova Quartz:
  • Quartz from this deposit requires very limited processing relative to material from other quartz operations. With high-purity silica and correspondingly low levels of impurities such as boron, iron, phosphorus and aluminum, the Sinova Quartz operation creates minimal by-products and requires less energy to process.
  • A tailings management facility is not necessary to mitigate environmental impacts. Only primary crushing will be done on-site then it will be stockpiled and hauled offsite to be processed.
  • No wastewater will be treated at the Sinova Quartz project as minimal water will be used in processing for dust control, and no tailings facilities will be constructed. (1)

Additional Technical Details on the Silicon Valley Project, B.C.

The property is underlain by thick sequences of extremely pure quartzite of the Ordovician Mount Wilson Formation, occurring as north-northwest striking, usually steeply east-dipping thrust panels.

Locally, quartzite of the Mount Wilson Formation occurs as friable sandstone, grading deeper to well cemented quartzite. Several faulted and displaced segments of the Mount Wilson quartzite unit occur on the Property, totaling approximately 12 kilometres of strike length at an average apparent width of 250-300 metres at surface. Structurally repeated segments of the same lithological unit host the Moberly Silica Mine (9.0 kilometres to the north), which previously produced up to 150,000 tonnes of silica sand annually, and the Sinova Quartz silica quarry (500 metres to the south), which produced up to 90,000 tonnes of silica annually, both of which exhibit economic grade silica greater than 99.6% SiO₂ purity. (5)(6)

The quartzite can be described as frosty white, sedimentary quartzite with a clastic texture containing fine, well-rounded polished grains 1/8 – 1/4 mm in diameter. Very competent bonding allows breaking to occur through the quartz grains.

* Cautionary Note

The reader is cautioned that grab samples are selective by nature and may not represent the true grade or style of mineralization across the property.

VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / January 31, 2024 / Rover Metals Corp. (TSXV:ROVR)(OTCQB:ROVMF)(FSE:4XO) (“Rover” or the “Company“) is pleased to announce that it is changing its name to Rover Critical Minerals Corp. The name change marks the Company’s successful pivot into critical minerals exploration, a process which started in January 2022. Trading will commence under the new name on Monday February 5, 2024. The Company’s shares will continue to trade under the symbol ROVR on the TSXV; ROVMF on the OTCQB; and 4XO on the FSE.

New ISIN/CUSIP numbers reflecting the name change have been made eligible. The Company’s transfer agent, Computershare, can be contacted with any further questions. Effective Monday February 5, 2024, the Company’s will be launching a new website with a new URL of www.rovercriticalmierals.com. Officers and Directors of the Company will continue to use their existing emails and gradually migrate to new email domain over the coming months.

Judson Culter, CEO at Rover Metals, states “Management and Directors at Rover are doubling down on our pivot into critical minerals. We remain resolute in our focus on advancing the Let’s Go Lithium project in the Amargosa Valley of Nevada.”

LGL Project

The LGL project is a claystone sedimentary lithium project located in a flat playa in an ancient volcanic lakebed. The claim block, which is approximately 8,300 acres in size, includes several limestone-capped butte-like outcrop formations. As released on September 7, 2023, a successful Phase 1 surface sampling program has returned multiple high-grade surface lithium samples. The clay body, as it’s known today, is believed to have very little overburden, and at the southern boundary of the project the lithium rich clay is exposed at the surface, or above surface in butte outcrops. Project infrastructure includes hydro power lines on site, direct road access, access to the Union Pacific rail line, and the nearby town of Pahrump with a readily available work force.

LGL Property Map

Regional Geology

The project is located within the prolific southwest Nevada claystone lithium jurisdiction. LGL is located just 12 km away from the historic Franklin Wells hectorite (a rare lithium smectite mineral) deposit. Mining at Franklin Wells dates back to the 1920’s. The regional geology of the Amargosa Valley is a basin-and-range structure with the Greenwater Range and Funeral Mountains to the west and the Amargosa Desert to the east. The Greenwater/Funeral mountains are fault-controlled with narrow interior valleys and are bounded by broad, coalescing alluvial fans. The Greenwater/Funeral mountains are composed of lower Paleozoic marine and metamorphic rocks. LGL is located in a large basin of clay rich Tertiary lakebed sediments, the major host rock for the other lithium claystone deposits in the southwest Nevada lithium jurisdiction. Lhoist North America has been open pit mining the specialty clays in the area since 1974.

Later-stage company comparable claystone lithium projects in southwest Nevada include Century Lithium Corp.’s Clayton Valley project; American Lithium’s TLC project; Noram Lithium’s Zeus project, and Nevada Lithium’s Bonnie Claire project. All of the aforementioned companies are later-stage mining companies, with a NI 43-101 resource calculation.

About Rover Metals

Rover is a publicly traded junior mining company that trades on the TSXV under symbol ROVR, on the OTCQB under symbol ROVMF, and on the FSE under symbol 4XO. The Company has a diverse portfolio of mining resource development projects with varying exploration timelines. Its critical mineral projects include lithium, zinc, and copper. Its precious metals projects include gold and silver. The Company is exclusive to the mining jurisdictions of the U.S. and Canada.

Swiss Business Development Consultant

In May 2023, the Company hired a Switzerland, based consultant (the “Consultant”) to provide business development consulting services in the key mining markets of England, France, Germany, and Switzerland. The Consultant’s roles and responsibilities include traveling through-out central Europe representing the Company at mining events. Further to its release of May 26, 2023, the Company is issuing 150,000 common shares in the Company for services provided by the Consultant. The Consultant is independent (arm’s length) to the Company. The share-based payment is for the payment of consulting services for the period of October 1^st to December 31^st, 2023. The Company has received approval from the Toronto Venture Exchange to make the issuance, pursuant to the common shares bearing the standard four-month regulatory hold period from the date of issuance.

VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / December 18, 2023 / Rover Metals Corp. (TSXV:ROVR)(OTCQB:ROVMF)(FSE:4XO) (“Rover” or the “Company“) is pleased to announce that it has submitted its Plan of Operations (the “Plan”) permit application for its Let’s Go Lithium (“LGL”) project to the Bureau of Land Management, Nevada division.

LGL Project

The LGL project is a claystone sedimentary lithium project located in a flat playa in an ancient volcanic lakebed. The claim block, which is approximately 8,300 acres in size, includes several limestone-capped butte-like outcrop formations. As released on September 7, 2023, a successful Phase 1 surface sampling program has returned multiple high-grade surface lithium samples. The clay body, as it’s known today, is believed to have very little overburden, and at the southern boundary of the project the lithium rich clay is exposed at the surface, or above surface in butte outcrops. Project infrastructure includes hydro power lines on site, direct road access, access to the Union Pacific rail line, and the nearby town of Pahrump with a readily available work force.

LGL Property Map

Regional Geology

The project is located within the prolific southwest Nevada claystone lithium jurisdiction. LGL is located just 12 km away from the historic Franklin Wells hectorite (a rare lithium smectite mineral) deposit. Mining at Franklin Wells dates back to the 1920’s. The regional geology of the Amargosa Valley is a basin-and-range structure with the Greenwater Range and Funeral Mountains to the west and the Amargosa Desert to the east. The Greenwater/Funeral mountains are fault-controlled with narrow interior valleys and are bounded by broad, coalescing alluvial fans. The Greenwater/Funeral mountains are composed of lower Paleozoic marine and metamorphic rocks. LGL is located in a large basin of clay rich Tertiary lakebed sediments, the major host rock for the other lithium claystone deposits in the southwest Nevada lithium jurisdiction. Lhoist North America has been open pit mining the specialty clays in the area since 1974.

Later-stage company comparable claystone lithium projects in southwest Nevada include Century Lithium Corp.’s Clayton Valley project; American Lithium’s TLC project; Noram Lithium’s Zeus project, and Nevada Lithium’s Bonnie Claire project. All of the aforementioned companies are later-stage mining companies, with a NI 43-101 resource calculation.

LGL Plan

Rover has been working with UES since August 2023 on the Plan. An integral part of the Plan, is the water table flow model, developed by UES’ Principal Hydrologist – Dwight Smith PE, PG, CHg, and team. The Company, through UES, is expecting to start baseline environmental surveys in the early spring of 2024.

Judson Culter, CEO at Rover Metals, states, “The Plan was developed to ensure that there will be no impact to the critical water tables and sensitive biological resources in the Amargosa basin. Dwight Smith has over 20 years of hydrogeology experience working in the Amargosa basin. Rover and UES have obtained a copy of the Plan of Operations and Environmental Assessment study that the neighbouring mine, operated by Lhoist North America, is operating under. Lhoist has been mining in the area for over 50 years, and their Plan of Operations was most recently updated in 1992. Management at Rover, and UES, feel confident that sustainable lithium mining can be supported in the Amargosa Valley.“

A Call for Battery Recycling Partnerships and Joint Ventures

Management of the company will continue their outreach efforts, with assistance from the Nevada State Governor’s Office, to explore partnerships with the Las Vegas-based battery recycling community in H1 of 2024. The eastern Amargosa Valley has been slated for solar farm energy development by the BLM. Solar energy, in addition to the existing hydro energy infrastructure in the area, allows for new development opportunities like EV raw materials battery recycling. Rover is seeking inbound requests to partner with recycling technology companies. Please contact info@rovermetals.com with inquiries. The LGL project is a one and half hour drive from the city of Las Vegas, one of the fastest growing cities in the U.S.

Resignation of Director

Eugene Hodgson has resigned as a director of the Company. Mr. Hodgson was an integral part of Rover’s early growth years, helping the Company establish a presence in the Northwest Territories of Canada. The resignation of Mr. Hodgson coincides with management’s efforts to focus on lithium resource development in Nevada. The Company is seeking to add new directors with experience in Nevada over the coming weeks and months. Mr. Hodgson will stay on in an advisory consulting capacity with the Company on an as-needed basis.

VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / December 11, 2023 / Rover Metals Corp. (TSXV:ROVR)(OTCQB:ROVMF)(FSE:4XO) (“Rover” or the “Company“) is pleased to announce that the NI 43-101 Technical Report for the Cabin Lake Gold project (the “Cabin Technical Report”) near to Yellowknife, NT, Canada, is nearing completion. The Company is incorporating three years of exploration data and drill programs (from 2020 to 2022) into the Cabin Technical Report. The Company anticipates that the report will be available the in the middle of Q1-2024.

Cabin Lake Gold Project

On November 24, 2020, the Company reported multiple high-grade gold drill intercepts. Highlights of this release included drill results from the Arrow Zone at Cabin Lake of:

In 2021, the Company performed extensive geophysical exploration programs including LiDAR and regional airborne magnetic surveys, as well as detailed ground IP geophysics work that identified multiple sulphide anomalies along the Bugow Iron Formation that still have not been drilled. The Bugow Iron Formation at Cabin Lake is over 15km in surface length, and is considered to structurally control the gold at the project across multiple reported zones (the Arrow Zone, the Beaver Zone, and the Andrew Zone). Comparabes for the project are the historic Lupin Gold mine, as well as the Back River gold project in Nunavut, Canada.

Yellowknife, NT, Canada

The Yellowknife area of Canada is a proven mining district hosting an endowment of precious metals, diamonds, critical minerals such as lithium and cobalt, as well as several rare earth elements. Late-stage brownfields exploration projects in the area promise to bring new infrastructure and investment to the area aided by the Government of Canada’s $1.5B Critical Minerals Infrastructure Fund. Fortune Minerals’ NICO cobalt-gold-copper-bismuth project is a recent recipient of this federal government funding. The Cabin Lake Gold project is located approximately 40km from the NICO project. Other regional junior mining companies are likely to receive federal government funding in 2024. Lithium pegmatite discoveries made this summer in the Yellowknife Pegmatite Province by companies such as Canadian listed Li-FT Power and Australian listed Loyal Lithium are also contributing to increased private sector investment into the area on a global scale.

Terms for Sale

The 100% owned Cabin Lake Gold project is being offered for sale under a staged-ownership purchase option, including an up-front cash payment. The Company intends to retain a royalty on the project. The Cabin Technical Report will qualify the project as a listing asset for multiple stock exchanges. The report can be made compliant for an ASX listing upon request. Interested parties should contact the Company at info@rovermetals.com.

Judson Culter, CEO at Rover Metals, states, “The sale of an option for the Cabin Lake Gold project will help bring-in needed working capital for 2024. Management at Rover is focussed on the continued permitting work at its Let’s Go Lithium project, NV, USA. The Company also has identified hard rock pegmatites at its IML project in the Northwest Territories. In 2024, we will be renewing our efforts to further explore and identify pegmatites at the IML project, including regional exploration in the Yellowknife Pegmatite Province, where the IML project is located. We have received a territorial government grant of $153,000 for exploration work at the IML project and we are pursuing federal government funding opportunities for the project as well.”

VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / September 7, 2023 / Rover Metals Corp. (TSXV:ROVR)(OTCQB:ROVMF)(FSE:4XO) (“Rover” or the “Company“) is pleased to announce that further to its release of August 1, 2023, management of the Company, including Mr. James Ingraffia, have completed a successful field visit and surface sampling program at the Let’s Go Lithium (“LGL”) project, NV, USA.

Summer 2023 Work Program
Management, including Mr. Ingraffia, spent a week in the field this summer at the LGL program. The purpose of the field visit was to orient Mr. Ingraffia with the project as well as confirm previously reported high-grade lithium surface samples at the project, with the goal of starting work on a geological map of the clay body at LGL. Mr. Ingraffia will work with Rover’s CEO, in the coming weeks and months, on a Plan of Operations For Exploration and any necessary environmental assessment that may be required under the U.S. National Environmental Policy Act (“NEPA”).

James Ingraffia
James is a senior lithium geologist specializing in Nevada. Mr. Ingraffia is the founder of Lithium Arrow LLC. He has seven years of experience in lithium economic geology, and is a highly trained specialist in lithium claystone and experienced in lithium brines and pegmatites. He got his start with the United States Geological Survey in lithium brine and claystone geochemistry, in partnership with Pure Energy Minerals before its purchase by Schlumberger. He then characterized the Thacker Pass lithium claystone deposit, from the atomic to kilometer scale, and published the results in partnership with Lithium Americas Corporation and the Nevada Bureau of Mines and Geology. He holds a Master’s Degree of Geology, with training in Business Administration, from the University of Nevada Reno and a Bachelor’s of Geology from California State University Northridge. Mr. Ingraffia is based in Reno, NV.

Surface Sampling Results
The results of Mr. Ingraffia’s surface sampling work is provided in the below table. Lithium grades have been analyzed using a SkiAps 903 Handheld Laser Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy (“HH LIBS”):

A SkiAps LIBs 903 analyzer was used to assay these samples. The QA/QC protocols for the LIBs are as follows: (a) it was calibrated for Claystones; (b) it was tested on a known Claystones lithium sample prior to fieldwork; and (c) the field samples were shot in a controlled environment, inside, with proper cleansing of the lens, and sample separation. The highest grades were shot several times to try to eliminate any nugget affect; (d) fine ground particulates were not tested, so no pucking was necessary.

Picture of Sample 348420

An initial geological map of the LGL project, including all new and historic surface samples reporting higher then 400 ppm Li (including historic laboratory assays and historical HH LIBS work) can be accessed at the following link:

Geological Map
https://rovermetals.com/summer-2023-sampling-program

Technical information has been approved by David White, P.Geo., QP for the purposes of NI 43-101.

Judson Culter, CEO at Rover Metals, states “the results of the summer 2023 work program reinforces managements’ working model of the LGL project. We believe the project to be an at, or very near to surface clay deposit, with open pit mine potential. Although claystone lithium deposits typically have higher grades at depth, we’re getting high grades of lithium near to surface at LGL. Lhoist North America has been open pit mining specialty clays in the area since the 1970s. Management believes that mining exploration and mining activities can co-exist along side the national parks in the vast rural area of the Amargosa Valley of Nevada. Management has been working through the summer to short-list preferred environmental consulting firms, and we hope to finalize the consultant for our NEPA process within the next few weeks.”
