Core Insights - Powermax Minerals Inc. has announced a Phase 1 exploration program for the Pinard Project, aimed at integrating historical data with new fieldwork to enhance target generation and prioritize areas for further exploration [1][12]. Project Overview - The Pinard REE Property is located in northern Ontario, Canada, approximately 70 km north-northeast of Kapuskasing, covering 5178 hectares through 255 contiguous mining claims, accessible via an all-weather road [2]. - The Pinard Intrusive Complex is characterized as an alkalic to peralkalic igneous body, sharing tectonomagmatic similarities with the nearby Clay-Howells Alkaline Complex, which hosts a known niobium-REE mineralized system [3]. Phase 1 Program Components - The Phase 1 program will include: - Desktop Data Compilation & GIS Modeling to refine exploration targets using advanced spatial analysis and radiometric interpretation techniques [4][7]. - Field Prospecting & Geological Mapping to identify and characterize pegmatite zones and mineralized structures [8]. - Multi-media Geochemical Sampling to vector toward areas of potential mineralization [9]. - Radiometric Surveys using handheld scintillometers to detect radiometric anomalies [10]. - An Airborne Geophysical Survey to identify structural trends and lithological boundaries [11]. Strategic Goals - The Phase 1 program is designed to rapidly advance the technical understanding of the Project by combining historical datasets with modern exploration techniques, allowing for efficient identification and prioritization of high-quality targets for follow-up work [12]. Company Background - Powermax Minerals Inc. is focused on advancing rare earth element projects and holds options for multiple properties, including the Cameron REE Property in British Columbia and the Atikokan REE Property in NW Ontario, in addition to the Pinard REE Property [14].
