- Outline and develop the recognized spodumene-bearing pegmatites zones, such because the Final Resort and the Bounty Gold Pegmatites on the Victory Mission and the Wenasaga North Zone on the Ear Falls Mission.
- Drill check the totally different potential areas alongside the exploration corridors to proceed to show the continuity, the scale, and the potential of each tasks.
The stripping program is designed to show extra pegmatites for sampling and mapping and in addition establish and prioritize drill targets.
As beforehand introduced, greater than 240 drill core samples from Ear Falls, 25 channel samples from Victory and over 120 seize samples from totally different tasks are nonetheless pending within the lab. Past Lithium anticipates the outcomes of those samples to develop into out there over the subsequent few weeks. As soon as all outcomes are obtained, Past Lithium will full an total technical assessment of all of the tasks and can finalize and announce a complete exploration plan for 2024.
“Within the final six months, we now have explored 50 of our 63 tasks (79.4%), superior 18 tasks to Part 2 exploration and have ten extra extremely potential tasks to begin exploring in 2024. We additionally made three important discoveries, together with two spodumene discoveries which at the moment are transferring to the drilling stage,” mentioned Allan Body CEO of Past Lithium.
He added: “Most of our tasks are near glorious infrastructure with nice entry positioned throughout Ontario which permits us to have longer discipline season for exploration to offer regular information circulate for our shareholders. We sit up for sharing the assay outcomes from the greater than 385 samples nonetheless within the lab as we obtain and analyze them.”
Victory Spodumene Mission
The Victory Mission is comprised of the Victory Essential (7,874 ha) and the Victory West (8,808 ha) Initiatives totaling 16,682 hectares in an space positioned within the Drugs Lake space close to the cities of Vermilion Bay, Dryden and the town of Kenora. The Victory Mission at present consists of two spodumene-bearing pegmatites, the Bounty Gold Pegmatite and the Final Resort Pegmatite. These two spodumene-bearing pegmatites are 40 to 50 m large and over 200-300 m uncovered alongside strike on floor (Determine 1). The Victory Mission has:
- Substantial width and dimension for the spodumene-bearing pegmatites.
- As much as 5.11% Li2O on the Final Resort Pegmatite and as much as 3.48% Li2O on the Bounty Gold Pegmatite from spodumene-bearing pegmatite seize samples.
- District scale synergy with the Ear Falls Spodumene Mission and the Mavis Lake Group Initiatives (Satellite tv for pc, Laval, Gullwing-tot, Webb East, Webb West, Temple Bay, Ogani Lake, and McKenzie Bay) as they’re inside 100 km of one another and three regionally important lithium deposits (Determine 3).

Ear Falls Spodumene Mission
The Ear Falls Mission (20,623 ha), beforehand known as the Wenasaga Mission, is positioned proper exterior the city of Ear Falls, Ontario.

Within the 2023 exploration program at Ear Falls, Past Lithium:
- Found the Wenasaga North Zone, a spodumene-bearing pegmatites zone, with seize samples as much as 4.54% Li2O.
- Found the Sandy Creek West Zone alongside a 100m large ridge with seize samples from pegmatites outcrops assayed as much as 0.4% Li2O.
- Reported that seize samples from the Sandy Creek West Zone are as extremely fractionated because the spodumene samples collected from the Wenasaga North Zone.
- Confirmed a 13 kilometers lengthy exploration structural managed hall with lithium mineralization.
- Delineated steady higher-grade lithium zone enveloped by wider intervals by stripping and channel sampling.
- Accomplished an preliminary 7 holes drilling program that intercepted new subparallel pegmatite dyke at depth that was not uncovered on floor beforehand.
