I am looking forward to personally joining the team in the field and reporting back on the findings, as we look towards completing the transaction, and securing 100% of the Brisk Lithium Project."
Project Identification:
The Project was identified due to its prospective nature for hosting hard-rock, pegmatite-hosted lithium mineralisation by Dahrouge's proprietary targeting method. This included the review of pegmatite occurrences across the James Bay region of Quebec with the appropriate indicator-mineralogy for hosting spodumene-bearing pegmatites, within favourable host-rocks.
The Project is host to several known pegmatite outcrops. Historically, there has been no lithium-focused exploration completed on the Project. Multiple target areas have been identified based on the aforementioned criteria and confirmed using aerial imagery. See figures 2 to 6* for examples within Area 1. In addition to the indicator mineralogy, the Project is located along trend of the Cancet Project (Winsome Resources) and Corvette (Patriot Battery Metals).
