Lithium development company Critical Resources Limited ASX:CRR (“Critical Resources” or “the Company”) is pleased to announce the commencement of its spring exploration program at the Company’s 100%-owned Mavis Lake Lithium Project in Ontario, Canada.
Highlights
- Field teams have commenced mapping and sampling of the Gullwing-Tot prospects in the North-Eastern portion of the Mavis Lake Lithium Project Area
- The area demonstrates clear scale potential with over 8km of pegmatites clusters along the Gullwing Lake-Tot Lake LCT outcrops
- Historical sampling and mapping to be validated, along with identification of priority targets for the summer drilling campaign
- The work program will initially focus on the previously mapped, spodumene bearing Gullwing and Tot pegmatites - both demonstrate scale potential due to the size and width of outcrops
- Gullwing-Tot prospects add immediate growth potential to the Mavis Lake Project, in parallel with ongoing infill and extension drilling of the Mavis Lake Resource
Spring Field Work Program
The initial stage of the 2023 spring program is designed to confirm spodumene mineralisation across known pegmatite showings, validate historical mapping of known LCT-Type pegmatites, identify regional trends of pegmatites along the prospective area, and identify priority targets for the summer drilling campaign.
Field work will include geological mapping of outcrops and bedrock sampling. Field work is being guided by historical exploration data as well as more recent remote sensing interpolation to identify additional outcrop locations.
The field teams’ immediate focus is on the known spodumene-bearing pegmatites Gullwing Lake and Tot Lake, which can be seen in Figures 1 and 2 respectively.

About the Gullwing-Tot Prospects
The Gullwing-Tot prospects are located with the Sioux Lookout Terrane of the Superior Province. Pegmatites in the Gullwing-Tot Property are found within an E-NE trending cluster that has an approximate width of 0.8-2.2km and extends laterally over 8km. This prospective area consists of multiple mapped pegmatite dykes including the namesake Gullwing Lake spodumene pegmatite swarm and Tot Lake spodumene pegmatite and can be seen in Figure 3.
