Eureka Lithium Ramps up for Phase 2 Program in Nunavik
Vancouver, August 31, 2023 - Eureka Lithium Corp. (CSE: ERKA) (OTC PINK: SCMCF) (FSE: S580) ("Eureka Lithium" or "Eureka" or the "Company"), owner of the largest lithium-focused land package (1,408 sq. km) in Nunavik, is pleased to provide the following update on its ongoing exploration program targeting the first-ever discovery of lithium-bearing pegmatites in Quebec's far north.
Highlights
- Eureka's 15-person GroundTruth Exploration crew field crew has just completed a successful first-pass program at the 229 sq. km Raglan South Property (refer to Aug. 23, 2023 news release). Information is being compiled for an update on this promising area in September;
- After a short break, crews will return to Raglan West in early September to commence a Phase 2 follow-up program to prioritize and execute on drill targets this season. Two dozen pegmatite units have been identified at Raglan West to date but not all areas of the 443 sq. km property have been fully covered;
- A strong lithium-cesium geochemical footprint and the high presence of metamorphosed supracrustal rocks provide a favorable geological setting for LCT pegmatite systems;
- GroundTruth is operating at high rates of efficiency in this northern environment which is allowing for an extension of the exploration season with ample fuel reserve and drill rig availability;
- Crews for Raglan West are stationed in the community of Salluit, a valuable logistics and supply centre for GroundTruth where Eureka's lithium project is just a short helicopter flight from a well established camp facility.
Jeffrey Wilson, Eureka President and CEO, commented: "We are very pleased to be finishing August on a strong note and pushing aggressively into September as the lithium exploration leader in Nunavik. We expect to build further momentum in September as we focus on the Raglan district (refer to Figure 1, Location Map).
