Core Insights - Brunswick Exploration Inc. reported significant spodumene grain counts in till samples from the Anatacau West Property, indicating strong lithium potential in the area [1][2] - The results suggest the presence of a new unexplored area that could extend the pegmatite trends for several kilometers [1][3] - The company plans to rapidly evaluate next steps to test this promising trend following the encouraging results [1] Group 1: Exploration Results - The summer 2024 till sampling campaign collected 24 samples, with four samples showing high spodumene grain counts of 1,226; 914; 47; and 37 grains normalized to 10 kg [2] - The high grain counts indicate that a significant mineralized trend extends further east on Brunswick's claims, suggesting potential for new near-surface spodumene dykes [3] Group 2: Drilling Campaign and Findings - In 2023, Brunswick conducted a drilling campaign totaling 3,712 meters, identifying several pegmatite dykes with grades up to 1.51% Li2O over 26.5 meters [4] - The drilling did not extend further east due to marshy ground, leading to a drone magnetic survey that indicated the mineralized dykes are within a major deformation corridor [5] Group 3: Project Overview - The Anatacau West Project consists of 13 claims located 2.5 kilometers east of the Trans-Taiga Highway, accessible year-round [5] - The project is part of a larger property package that includes the Anatacau Main project, which has a total of 704 claims covering 37,058 hectares [5] Group 4: Quality Control and Methodology - Till samples were collected from hand-dug pits at depths up to 1 meter, with quality control protocols developed by Brunswick, Inlandsis, and ALS [6] - The samples underwent processing to count spodumene grains, with results normalized to 10 kg of processed till matrix [6]
