Geological and Methodological Insights - The Exploration Target was developed by BBA Inc., an independent geological consulting firm, utilizing data from 40 diamond core drill holes and 3D modeling of pegmatite domains [13][15]. - The methodology included a review of geological data, specific gravity measurements, and adjustments for confidence factors to estimate tonnage and grade [15][16]. Future Plans and Expectations - The company is continuing its 2025 Summer Program, with rolling assay results expected into Q3 2025, aiming to update the Exploration Target to a NI 43-101 compliant inferred Mineral Resource Estimate [6][23]. - The location of the Cisco Project within the James Bay Lithium District, near infrastructure such as the Billy Diamond Highway and rail access, positions it favorably for future development [11][20].

Core Viewpoint - Q2 Metals Corp. has commenced drilling at the Cisco Lithium Project in Quebec, aiming to enhance the understanding of the mineralized zone and build towards a mineral resource estimate [2][3][5]. Drilling Program - The 2025 Summer Program focuses on infill drilling along a 1.5 km mineralized strike length, with the first hole (CS-25-036) exceeding expectations by extending the known mineralized zone [3][5][6]. - Hole CS-25-036 was completed to a depth of 582.11 m, intersecting three additional spodumene pegmatite intervals, with the widest being 151.0 m [4][6]. Geological and Sampling Activities - A detailed mapping and sampling campaign covering the 41,253-hectare Cisco Project is ongoing, with 390 rock samples collected and results expected soon [15]. - Initial metallurgical testing is underway on composite samples from previous drill holes, exploring various separation methods to evaluate the mineralized zone's beneficiation [17]. Option Agreements - The company has successfully exercised option agreements for the Broadback and Ouagama claim groups, acquiring 100% interests in these areas [19][20]. - The Cisco claim group option agreement involves a total payment of $2,000,000 and the issuance of 40,000,000 common shares, with the first anniversary payment of $500,000 made [21]. Upcoming Events - Q2 Metals will attend the Fastmarkets 17 Lithium Supply and Battery Raw Materials Conference in Las Vegas from June 23-26, 2025 [23]. Company Overview - Q2 Metals is focused on the Cisco Lithium Project, which consists of 801 claims and has district-scale potential with an identified mineralized zone [27][28].
