First Tellurium Receives Assays from 2023 Exploration Campaign

Data from IP work, sampling and drilling being compiled and interpreted.

Vancouver, BC, Canada – TheNewswire — January 29, 2024 – First Tellurium Corp. (CSE:FTEL) (OTC:FSTTF), reports that it has received all assay results and data from the Company’s 2023 exploration programs at the Deer Horn polymetallic property in west-central British Columbia. Exploration concluded October 31, as per the 2023 permit. Technical Advisor and Qualified Person Dr. Lee Groat is currently compiling and interpreting the data, and the Company expects to publish results sometime in February 2024.

The results will include assays and interpretation from the property-wide mapping and sampling program conducted during the summer, a program that encountered significant amounts of the porphyry indicator bornite and identified further copper-gold porphyry alteration. Dr. Groat’s report will also include analysis of the Induced Polarization (IP) geophysical survey conducted in September and the limited drilling that was delayed until October. This program followed up on rock sampling, channel sampling and prospecting conducted in 2022, as well as the August mapping/sampling.

“I appreciate our shareholders’ patience as we have all awaited the results,” said First Tellurium President and CEO. “We were hindered primarily by long delays at the assay lab, which was an issue beyond our control. I look forward to announcing results and other details next month.”
