EXPLORATION ACTIVITIES

Decelles Acquisition

Immediately after listing, Winsome formed a partnership with Glenn Greisbach, a Quebec regional geology specialist, to expand its land portfolio by discovering and acquiring new properties in Quebec with a high degree of lithium potential.

This led to Winsome entering into an exclusive option agreement in late January 2022 to acquire 669 claims, totalling 385km2, in the prospective Decelles region of Quebec, Canada. Decelles is located close to the mining centres of Val-dÓr and RouynNoranda, approximately 600km from Montreal. The Company signed an exclusive option agreement to explore and subsequently acquire the claims over a 24-month period.

By entering into this agreement, the Company can more than double its land holding in Quebec and explore a new area of the province known for granitic and pegmatitic outcrops, located close to infrastructure and the major mining centres immediately adjacent to recent lithium discoveries (see Figure 1).
