Pursuit Minerals Ltd. (ASX:PUR) is a top-tier lithium exploration and development company. The company is focused on its flagship Rio Grande Sur lithium project in the Salta Province of Argentina. The project is strategically located in an area known as the Lithium Triangle which hosts 50 percent of the global lithium resources and 40 percent of the current global lithium production. Argentina is the world’s third largest producer of lithium, behind Australia and Chile.
The project spans an area of 9,260 hectares on the Rio Grande Salar and is adjacent to several operating lithium mines and development operations, including Acradium Lithium’s Fenix lithium mine and the Olaroz lithium mine. The Rio Grande Salar holds a historical Ni 43-101 resource declared by LSC Lithium, formerly listed on the TSX prior to being acquired by Plus Petrol of 2.1 million tons (Mt) of lithium carbonate equivalent (LCE) with an average grade of 370 milligrams per litre (mg/L). This resource was mostly obtained from shallow drilling to 100 metres.
Pursuit delivered a maiden JORC Inferred Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE) of 251.3 kt LCE at 351 mg/L at the Rio Grande Sur project. The inferred resource relies on recent geophysical surveys and historical drilling, encompassing only a small portion of the known mineralization. Notably, excluding the highly promising Mito tenement from the current MRE highlights the unexplored potential for further resource expansion.
Pursuit has commenced its Stage 1 maiden drill program focused on upgrading the inferred resource. The drilling is anticipated to reach depths of 500 to 600 metres below surface, significantly deeper than the existing defined JORC mineral resource depth. Other companies in the region have obtained impressive results and grades of 900 mg/Li+ at depths of 500 metres, some of the highest known grades in Argentina. Pursuit expects a material resource upgrade in the second half of 2024 which will build on the inferred maiden resource.

In addition to having an attractive lithium resource, Pursuit is focused on the production of lithium carbonate to meet the supply side response to growing lithium demand. Recently, the company announced the first phase of operations of its 250 tons per annum (tpa) pilot plant to produce lithium carbonate. The plant will generate both technical and battery grade lithium carbonate at a purity of 99.95 percent, employing a conventional evaporation process.
Pursuit has submitted advanced environmental permits for the construction of the 250 tpa evaporation ponds and Stage 2 drill program at the northern tenement of the Rio Grande Sur project.
The establishment of the ponds is expected to take place in the latter part of 2024, pending environmental approvals. The ponds and the plant are planned to be situated on the Sal Rio 02 tenement enabling the possibility of initiating the first production of lithium carbonate on-site in 2025.
Pursuit is targeting continuous production at Rio Grande Salar and expects the current setup to be scalable to produce 15,000 to 20,000tpa of technical and battery grade lithium carbonate.

The company’s focus on Argentina has several advantages. The new government, led by its president Javier Milei has signaled a market-friendly and pro-business policy shift. This should be a positive development for lithium miners given that Argentina has one of the largest lithium reserves in the world. Argentina holds 21 percent of the world’s 105 million tons of lithium resources, second only to Bolivia, according to the United States Geological Survey’s Lithium Statistics and Information 2024 report.
Lithium is in great demand driven by the growth in electric vehicles (EVs). Bloomberg NEF estimates lithium demand to jump by 225 percent to 2.6 Mt of LCE by 2030, translating into a CAGR of 16 percent. In a net-zero scenario, Bloomberg pegs the demand at 3.6 Mt of LCE by 2030, a CAGR of 19 percent.
The company remains focused on project execution that will deliver long-term shareholder value, including the completion of stage 1 drilling, JORC resource upgrade, first production of lithium carbonate and increasing production capacity to 250 tpa, and receipt of environmental permits, all within the first half of 2024.
In addition, Pursuit has identified the following catalysts over the next 12 months:
The Rio Grande Sur is the company’s flagship lithium project. The project comprises five tenements that span 9,233 hectares and are located in Rio Grande Salar in Salta province, Argentina. The region has benefited from historical exploration that yielded an NI 43-101 resource of 2.19 Mt LCE @ 374 mg/L, at inferred category.
During Q4 2023, Pursuit announced a maiden JORC inferred mineral resource estimate of 251.3 kt LCE at 351 mg/L at the Rio Grande Sur project. Following this, Pursuit is currently undertaking a maiden drill program to upgrade the inferred resource. Stage 1 of the drill program will comprise four diamond drill holes on the southern tenements. The first two holes will be drilled at the Sal Rio II and Maria Magdelena tenements.
The drilling is anticipated to reach depths of 500 to 600 metres below surface, significantly deeper than the existing defined JORC mineral resource depth. The drilling commenced in Q1 2024, and Pursuit is targeting a material resource upgrade in the second quarter of 2024. Further drilling is expected following the completion of the Stage 1 program. The Stage 2 drilling program is anticipated to occur in the second half of 2024, after which Pursuit is targeting a feasibility study.

Saga Metals Corp. ("SAGA" or the "Company") (TSXV: SAGA) (OTCQB: SAGMF) (FSE: 20H) a North American exploration company focused on critical mineral discovery, is pleased to announce the official commencement of the maiden drill program at the Company's Radar Titanium-Vanadium (Ti-V) Project.
Drilling Commenced at Radar Titanium-Vanadium (Ti-V) Project in Labrador, Canada:
The Radar drill program is advancing at a strong pace as the team is currently drilling the 5 th of 7 planned drill holes in the Hawkeye zone. To date, the team has drilled over 1,000 meters of rock through the magnetic anomaly as identified the geophysical survey completed in Q4 2024 (see Figure 5 below).
Gladiator Drilling has been moving efficiently and effectively, not only through the rock with several 100+m of core drilled in a single shift, but also with well executed and clean drill moves.
"The rock has been great to drill through. The shear amount of magnetite in the rock has made for soft yet highly competent rock, with very high core recovery," stated Josh Blundell, Owner & Operator of Gladiator Drilling.
Michael Garagan, CGO & Director of Saga Metals Corp. discusses drilling strategy: " The magnetic inversions have been amazingly accurate. Our first hole was plotted to start right in the center of the magnetic anomaly, and I've been able to predict our intercepts with 10-20m accuracy based upon the inversion and surface structural measurements. The only surprise the team has had is with just how much magnetite is present in the system, both as groundmass and layering. I was expecting more silica rich/magnetite depleted zones between each geophysical high but what we have found is that the whole thing is full of magnetite. Its pretty remarkable. Additionally, our biggest intercept of magnetite layering was 150m long, with the most impressive being a 25m section containing at least 62 individual magnetite bands varying from 3 to 10 inches in width. It's easy to get excited when you see something like that, especially when you have both the geochemical and petrographic evidence that both the titanium and vanadium are hosted in the magnetite."

Key Maiden Drill Program Highlights:
Radar Ti-V Project – Labrador, Canada
The Radar Ti-V Property is located 10km south of Cartwright in Labrador, Canada. The project spans 17,250 hectares and benefits from road access, supporting efficient exploration and development. Radar's Hawkeye zone is the most prospective target on the property with detailed geophysics and surface samples completed to date. Results include 2.5 - 11.1% TiO2 and 0.2 - 0.66% V2O5 and are suggestive of a complex and multi-phased layered mafic intrusion that may be upwards of 1km wide, 4km long and potentially over 600m deep . Recent geophysics completed on the property show very detailed correlation to the rock samples and observed phase changes in the system.

Brunswick Exploration Inc. (TSX-V: BRW, OTCQB: BRWXF; FRANKFURT:1XQ; " BRW " or the " Company ") is pleased to announce its plans for the 2025 summer exploration program in Greenland as well as a mineral license expansion of the Paamiut project.
Mr. Killian Charles, President and CEO of BRW, commented: "Following strong metallurgical results and the start of drilling at the Mirage Project in Quebec, we are delighted to announce assay results from the Ivisaartoq discovery near Nuuk, the capital of Greenland. The assays confirm the presence of spodumene throughout the discovery dyke and demonstrates that it is part of an evolved trend which will require significant additional work to fully realize its potential. This highly prospective trend remains underexplored with dozens of pegmatites yet to be visited.
We are also very pleased and thankful for the Greenlandic Government's efforts in locating the original document that identifies the location of an unconfirmed historical spodumene showing, first identified in 1972 and wholly located within our Paamiut Project. In light of this new showing, we have significantly increased our licenses in the Paamiut region.
Brunswick Exploration is now one of the largest mineral license holders in Greenland and is the only company exploring for lithium, leveraging its first mover advantage in the country. With a strong mining regime alongside prospective geology and excellent outcrop exposure, we believe 2025 will be a key year for lithium in Greenland as we launch one of the largest regional exploration initiatives in the country."
2025 Greenland Summer Program
BRW will launch an aggressive regional-scale prospecting and mapping initiative on its extensive Greenland portfolio beginning in mid-June, using 4 crews and 2 helicopters for six weeks. In June, one team will focus on detailed mapping and sampling around the Ivisaartoq discovery and surrounding areas while the other will focus on the expanded Nuuk and Paamiut licenses. Starting in July, one team will focus on follow-up prosecting at the Nuuk and Paamiut projects based on results from June while the other team will focus on the recently acquired Disko Bay and Uummannaq projects (see news release of November 7, 2024). Results from the first six weeks will be used to plan advanced exploration programs in August and September 2025, across the entire portfolio.
Ivisaartoq Discovery Results
The company has received grab sample assays from its discovery dyke producing up to 2.40 % Li 2 O (Figure 1). The lithium-bearing dyke is within an evolved trend measuring roughly 3 kilometers by 1.5 kilometers and remains open in all directions with low Mg/Li and K/Rb ratios. To reiterate, the 2024 first pass prospecting focused on rapidly producing portable XRF K/Rb analysis on potassium feldspar crystals while the 2025 second pass will focus on detailed mapping and further sampling in the anomalous area. As these pegmatites are kilometric in scale, they will require systematic sampling and detailed mapping.
For whole rock analysis, the Mg/Li ratio is much more indicative of a favorable Li bearing outcrop or trend than field-generated feldspar K/Rb ratios. Mg/Li ratios in whole rock samples of

Historical Paamiut Lithium Reference Uncovered
As referenced in the press release dated October 30 th , 2024, a 10-kilometer greenstone belt hosted an unconfirmed and geographically uncertain historical database spodumene showing with a reported assay of 1.23% Li 2 O from the early 1970s. After numerous discussions with the Geological Survey of Denmark and Greenland (GEUS), an accurate location for the showing was ascertained to be roughly 4 kilometers from the previous incorrect location in the database. The area contains several dozen pegmatites which have been never been prospected. During the 2024 first pass, the Company sampled an evolved pegmatite (based on K/Rb) roughly 1 kilometer from the revised location of the historical lithium assay (Figure 2). The company is eager to visit this area in 2025 and has expanded its Paamiut land holdings accordingly.
Figure 2: Paamiut pXRF Data and Historical Lithium Showing
Paamiut Staking
The new licenses are located roughly 90 to 130 km from the coastal town of Paamiut, which is approximately 260 km south of the capital Nuuk (Figure 3). Paamiut is home to roughly 1,300 people. The new license area lies within the North Atlantic Craton specifically within the Bjornesund tectonic block. This block is composed of tonalitic and granodioritic orthogneiss as well as favourable Mesoarchean metavolcanic amphibolite belts. The North Atlantic Craton extends westwards into northern Labrador, Canada and eastwards into eastern Greenland.
Multiple metavolcanic amphibolite belts were acquired that are up to roughly 1.5 kilometers in width and 15 kilometers in strike length. The new claims have numerous mapped and interpreted pegmatite targets including nine that are between 500 and 900 meters in strike length for a total new license area of 20,785 hectares. Licences applications have been submitted and are awaiting government final approval.

This highly prospective trend remains underexplored with dozens of pegmatites yet to be visited.
We are also very pleased and thankful for the Greenlandic Government's efforts in locating the original document that identifies the location of an unconfirmed historical spodumene showing, first identified in 1972 and wholly located within our Paamiut Project. In light of this new showing, we have significantly increased our licenses in the Paamiut region.
Brunswick Exploration is now one of the largest mineral license holders in Greenland and is the only company exploring for lithium, leveraging its first mover advantage in the country. With a strong mining regime alongside prospective geology and excellent outcrop exposure, we believe 2025 will be a key year for lithium in Greenland as we launch one of the largest regional exploration initiatives in the country."
2025 Greenland Summer Program
BRW will launch an aggressive regional-scale prospecting and mapping initiative on its extensive Greenland portfolio beginning in mid-June, using 4 crews and 2 helicopters for six weeks. In June, one team will focus on detailed mapping and sampling around the Ivisaartoq discovery and surrounding areas while the other will focus on the expanded Nuuk and Paamiut licenses. Starting in July, one team will focus on follow-up prosecting at the Nuuk and Paamiut projects based on results from June while the other team will focus on the recently acquired Disko Bay and Uummannaq projects (see news release of November 7, 2024). Results from the first six weeks will be used to plan advanced exploration programs in August and September 2025, across the entire portfolio.
Ivisaartoq Discovery Results
The company has received grab sample assays from its discovery dyke producing up to 2.40 % Li 2 O (Figure 1). The lithium-bearing dyke is within an evolved trend measuring roughly 3 kilometers by 1.5 kilometers and remains open in all directions with low Mg/Li and K/Rb ratios. To reiterate, the 2024 first pass prospecting focused on rapidly producing portable XRF K/Rb analysis on potassium feldspar crystals while the 2025 second pass will focus on detailed mapping and further sampling in the anomalous area. As these pegmatites are kilometric in scale, they will require systematic sampling and detailed mapping.
For whole rock analysis, the Mg/Li ratio is much more indicative of a favorable Li bearing outcrop or trend than field-generated feldspar K/Rb ratios. Mg/Li ratios in whole rock samples of

Historical Paamiut Lithium Reference Uncovered
As referenced in the press release dated October 30 th , 2024, a 10-kilometer greenstone belt hosted an unconfirmed and geographically uncertain historical database spodumene showing with a reported assay of 1.23% Li 2 O from the early 1970s. After numerous discussions with the Geological Survey of Denmark and Greenland (GEUS), an accurate location for the showing was ascertained to be roughly 4 kilometers from the previous incorrect location in the database. The area contains several dozen pegmatites which have been never been prospected. During the 2024 first pass, the Company sampled an evolved pegmatite (based on K/Rb) roughly 1 kilometer from the revised location of the historical lithium assay (Figure 2). The company is eager to visit this area in 2025 and has expanded its Paamiut land holdings accordingly.

Paamiut Staking
The new licenses are located roughly 90 to 130 km from the coastal town of Paamiut, which is approximately 260 km south of the capital Nuuk (Figure 3). Paamiut is home to roughly 1,300 people. The new license area lies within the North Atlantic Craton specifically within the Bjornesund tectonic block. This block is composed of tonalitic and granodioritic orthogneiss as well as favourable Mesoarchean metavolcanic amphibolite belts. The North Atlantic Craton extends westwards into northern Labrador, Canada and eastwards into eastern Greenland.
Multiple metavolcanic amphibolite belts were acquired that are up to roughly 1.5 kilometers in width and 15 kilometers in strike length. The new claims have numerous mapped and interpreted pegmatite targets including nine that are between 500 and 900 meters in strike length for a total new license area of 20,785 hectares. Licences applications have been submitted and are awaiting government final approval.
