About the PAK Rare Metals Project
The PAK Rare Metals Project lies close to the boundary between two geological sub-provinces of the western Superior geologic province in northwestern Ontario and hosts a rare metals pegmatite deposit. The deposit is an LCT (lithium- cesium- tantalum) classified pegmatite. These rare types of deposits have been the principal source of hard rock lithium, tantalum, rubidium and cesium ores mined in the world.
HLM is actively exploring its 100% owned and optioned project which contains the Pakeagama Lake pegmatite. The deposit is one of the highest grade deposits in North America which has a current Inferred Resource of 6.89 million tonnes of 1.86% Li2O Eq[1] which has a technical/ceramic grade spodumene with low inherent iron (below 0.1% Fe2O3). Within the deposit, the pegmatite uniquely hosts an Upper Intermediate Zone of 1.17million tonnes grading 3.44% Li2O. A 9-hole, 1,500m Phase II diamond drill program was completed in late March 2014 which and has not yet been considered in a resource calculation. As a result of the drill program, the pegmatite now has a 400m strike length with an estimated width varying from 10m to 125m with a sub-vertical orientation. The resource remains open to depth and along strike to the northwest and southeast.
