Beaufield Resources Stakes Additional Lithium Claims in Quebec

Beaufield Resources (TSXV:BFD) has staked a further 76 claims on the western border of its current claims in Quebec, surrounding the Moblan Lithium deposit. The company intends to explore these claims for lithium potential.
As quoted in the press release:

Moblan is located 2.5 kilometres west of Beaufield’s 100% owned Tortigny copper-zinc-silver-gold deposit and the property is intersected by the Route du Nord, which is the main road that leads to Nemaska Lithium Inc’s Wabouchi project. A map indicating the additional claims staked is available at the following link:
Previous geological work by Beaufield in the area identified several pegmatite dykes with lithium bearing minerals such as Spodumene and Lepidolite on Beaufield’s claims. Beaufield’s focus at that time was for base metals, and the lithium bearing structures were not followed up. With significant recent activity in the nearby Wabouchi area and the potential of Moblan, a detailed examination of Beaufield’s holdings is warranted. A field program will be undertaken in June to assess the lithium occurrences on the property.

Beaufield president and CEO, Jens Hansen, said:

We are pleased to take advantage of this new opportunity, which is easily accessible given the area’s excellent infrastructure.Beaufield’s main focus however remains Urban where drilling is scheduled for May. A summer work program on the Eleonore property, which adjoins Goldcorp’s new mine, is under consideration. We are closely monitoring the recent exploration success that Sirios Resources Inc. has had on its nearby Cheechoo property.
