THE 1875 HA. DUVAL PROPERTY IS LOCATED APPROXIMATELY 300 KM NORTH OF CHIBOUGAMAU, QUEBEC, CANADA. IT IS CONTIGUOUS AND DIRECTLY ON TREND WITH NEMASKA LITHIUM INC.'S >30M TONNE WHABOUCHI DEPOSIT. THE ROUTE DU NORD PROVIDES YEAR ROUND, ALL-WEATHER ACCESS TO THE DISTRICT. THE NEMISCAU ROAD-HOUSE/CAMP PROVIDES FOOD, HOUSING, AND LIGHT AND HEAVY MACHINERY MAINTENANCE SERVICES LESS THAN 15 KM FROM THE PROPERTY. THE NEMISCAU AIRPORT, SERVICED DAILY BY AIR CREEBEC IS LOCATED 18 KM WEST OF THE PROPERTY AND TWO HYDRO-QUÉBEC ELECTRICITY TRANSFORMATION PLANTS ARE LOCATED WITHIN 20 KM OF EITHER SIDE OF THE PROPERTY.
HISTORIC EXPLORATION ON THE DUVAL PROPERTY WAS FOCUSED ON NI-CU-CO-AU-PGE TARGETS, HOSTED WITHIN AN ULTRAMAFIC DYKE ON THE PROPERTY. IN LIGHT OF RECENT DEVELOPMENTS ON THE ADJOINING WHABOUCHI PROPERTY, EXPLORATION HAS SHIFTED FOCUS TOWARD A POSSIBLE EXTENSION OF THE LITHIUM-BEARING DYKE SWARM. CURRENT PROSPECTING HAS RECENTLY IDENTIFIED NUMEROUS PEGMATITE INTRUSIONS ON DUVAL, SIMILAR TO THOSE WHICH HOST LITHIUM MINERALIZATION AT WHABOUCHI.
A PRELIMINARY PROSPECTING SURVEY IS PLANNED FOR EARLY IN THE 2016 FIELD SEASON TO SAMPLE THE KNOWN PEGMATITE OCCURRENCES, FOLLOWING UP WITH APPROPRIATE SAMPLE DIGESTIONS AND ANALYSIS FOR LITHIUM CONTENT. EARLIER EXPLORATION PROGRAMS ONLY ANALYZED FOR PRECIOUS AND BASE METALS.
AN AGGRESSIVE PHASE ONE WORK PROGRAM CONSISTING OF SOIL GEOCHEMISTRY, HIGH RESOLUTION GROUND MAG SURVEYING, GEOLOGICAL MAPPING AND PROSPECTING IS SCHEDULED TO COMMENCE SHORTLY AFTER THE RESULTS OF THE PRELIMINARY ORIENTATION SURVEY.
THE DUVAL PROPERTY HAS THE POTENTIAL TO HOST NUMEROUS NE-SW STRIKING LCT-TYPE (LITHIUM-CESIUM-TANTALUM) PEGMATITES, GIVEN ITS FAVOURABLE GEOLOGY, WHICH LIES ALONG STRIKE OF THE ADJACENT WHABOUCHI DEPOSIT.
THE PRESENCE OF AN ULTRAMAFIC DYKE HOSTING HISTORICAL DRILL INTERSECTIONS OF SIGNIFICANT NI-CU-CO-AU-PGE MINERALIZATION ADDS THE POTENTIAL FOR MULTIPLE DEPOSIT TYPE DISCOVERIES ON THE PROPERTY.
