Critical Resources Limited (ASX:CRR) (“Critical Resources” or “the Company”) is pleased to advise that it has executed a binding purchase and sale agreement with TSX-V listed Power Metals Corp (TSX-V:PWM) (“Power Metals”) to acquire Power Metals’ Gullwing-Tot Lakes property.
Highlights
- Critical Resources to acquire 100% of the Gullwing-Tot Lakes property from TSX-V listed Power Metals Corp (TSX-V:PWM)
- Gullwing-Tot Lakes property comprises 358 individual claims totalling ~7,518 hectares, located approximately 5.5km northeast of the Mavis Lake ‘Main Zone’ where the Company has been successfully drilling since April 2022
- The Gullwing-Tot Lakes property is considered to be highly prospective for lithium mineralisation, with historical exploration identifying multiple spodumene-bearing pegmatites over the project area, with rock-chip samples returning grades up to 6.78% Li2O
- 416 individual claims, combining for a total area of 8,736 hectares has also been staked and registered directly by the Company's wholly owned subsidiary, Canada Critical Resources Corp
- The under acquisition and staked claims, in conjunction with the Mavis Lake Lithium Project, will form a single contiguous block covering ~22,984 hectares over a highly prospective geological setting for lithium
- The acquisition and organic growth, underpinned by continued positive drilling results, strongly align with the Company’s development focus for the Mavis Lake Lithium Project
Additionally, the Company has directly staked, at minimal cost, a further 8,376 hectares of claims. This new combined area of the Mavis Lake Project is fully contiguous and has increased by 324% now sitting at ~22,984 hectares.
Critical Resources’ Managing Director Alex Cheeseman said:
“This significant increase in land position is naturally aligned to the Company’s focus on Mavis Lake.
Planning has already begun to undertake exploration efforts on the newly-acquired area in 2023, as we leverage synergies with our existing Mavis Lake exploration team and build upon recent exceptional drilling results.
To secure a significant increase in ground, contiguous with our current land holding, in a highly prospective area with known spodumene-bearing pegmatites, running along the same geological trend as Mavis Lake is an outstanding outcome for the Company and strengthens our already impressive Mavis Lake Project.”
Property Details
The Gullwing-Tot Lakes property, along with the Mavis Lake Lithium Project and recently staked ground, will form an enlarged contiguous project area of approximately 30 km long and 9.5km wide, with a total area of 22,984 hectares (“Mavis Lake Project Area”). The Mavis Lake Project Area can be seen in figure 1, the entire Mavis Lake Project area lies within the prospective Sioux Lookout Domain in the Wabigoon Subprovince. Figure 1 also identifies the two pegmatites that were subjects of historical exploration efforts by Power Metals.
