Genius Metals Inc. announce the completion of a 15-hole, 2,456 m drilling program on the Sakami property within the James Bay Territory of Québec. Thirteen (13) diamond drill holes were collared on specific high-chargeability targets occurring in the western extension of the GoldenEye showing (Figure 1). All of the 1,458 core samples collected from this drilling program are currently being assayed in a certified laboratory.

Genius has also completed a non-brokered private placement offering (the "Private Placement") for gross proceeds of $635,000. The western Golden Eye extension expressed significant high chargeability anomalies along a 4 km NE-SW oriented trend similar to that reported over the main showing where previous drilling yielded gold values of 1.45 g/t Au over 6.0m and 2.53 g/t Au over 1.50m (see Genius' press-release of November 10th, 2021). The drilled geophysical anomalies were interpreted to be the intersections of pyrrhotite-pyrite rich zones and pyrite-bearing quartz veins within metasedimentary rocks (wacke and graphitic claystone) stratigraphically located at the base of the Yasinski Group of the La Grande sub-province near the contact with the Opinaca sub-province.

Of the two other holes drilled 6 km to the northeast, one targeted the iron formation at the contact of the La Grande and Opinaca subprovinces and it intersected bands of pyrite/pyrrhotite-bearing (1-30%) silicate and sulphide iron formations intercalated with wacke and claystone layers. The other hole located north of the Lamarche contained alternating mafic volcanic and wacke layers, the latter showing traces of disseminated pyrite, pyrrhotite, chalcopyrite, and sphalerite.
