PLANET GREEN METALS ADD ADDITIONAL CLAIMS TO THE SHERATON PROPERTY, EAST OF TIMMINS ONTARIO

Planet Green Metals Inc. has staked new claims that add to its Sheraton property, east of Timmins, Ont. Thirty-six cells were staked, totalling an area of 680 hectares, and increasing the Sheraton property by 36 per cent. The new contiguous claims extend the property to the southwest, and cover a wide east-west transect of prospective host rocks.

The newly acquired ground aligns with Planet Green’s exploration model for VMS-style mineralization, as outlined in the company’s previous release (July 2, 2024) for the Sheraton property. These claims have been incorporated into the option agreement with Perry English (1544230 Ontario Inc.) and Gravel Ridge Resource.

The property area is characterized by a rhyolite/intermediate volcanic contact, which may relate to a significant volcanic centre that is prospective for structurally controlled VMS mineralization. This is underscored by the historical Cross Lake Minerals zinc, silver and copper drill intersections. Faults orthogonal to the axis of rhyolite contact could be controls on mineralization in the form of traps for sulphide accumulation on the ancient seafloor.

The presence of a troctolite dike that crosscut the rhyolites also has potential for magmatic sulphide-hosted nickel copper PGE (platinum group elements) mineralization.

Jeremy S. Brett, president and chief executive officer, commented: “We’re delighted to announce that we have significantly expanded our Sheraton property through strategic claim staking with Perry English, who is a highly respected Ontario-based prospector. He is a co-founder of PGR, a shareholder and a valued member of our advisory board. This new acquisition aligns perfectly with our VMS-focused exploration model for the region, driven by our understanding of the area’s lithological and structural controls.”

He added: “In addition to enhancing our VMS potential, this expansion introduces promising nickel-copper opportunities, further strengthening our commitment to critical minerals. Notably, this property will be integrated into our existing royalty-free agreement with Perry English/Gravel Ridge, providing Planet Green Resources with the flexibility to structure its own royalties moving forward.”

About Sheraton

The Sheraton property is located 25 kilometres southwest from Matheson, Ont., with excellent access via a network of forestry roads. The property covers the geological contact of a sequence of felsic to intermediate volcanic and volcaniclastic rocks of the Wawa-Abitibi greenstone belt, which is highly prospective for Cu-Zn (copper-zinc) plus or minus Au (gold) plus or minus Ag (silver) VMS (volcanogenic massive sulphide) style mineralization. Exploration by Cross Lake Minerals in the late 1990s on the adjacent property at Cross Lake identified bedded sulphides containing zinc grades ranging from 1 per cent to 6 per cent, with local high-grade pods containing up to 18 per cent Zn over a true width of three metres, with silver values ranging up to 911 grams per tonne Ag. Copper grades of 1 per cent to 3 per cent were encountered over estimated true widths of up to 12 m (Vaillancourt, 2001). The mineralization represents VMS style, and Planet Green will look for similar critical and precious metal mineralization on the Sheraton property. The presence of significant copper mineralization at the adjacent Cross Lake property makes the Sheraton property a compelling target.
