Vancouver, June 28, 2023 - Foremost Lithium Resource & Technology Ltd. (CSE: FAT) (OTCQB: FRRSF) (FSE: F0R0) (WKN: A3DCC8) ("Foremost Lithium", "Foremost" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has engaged Dahrouge Geological Consulting Ltd ("Dahrouge Geological, or "Dahrouge") to undertake all further exploration and drill programs on the company's Lithium Lane properties as well it's most recent acquisition Lac Simard South in Quebec. Dahrouge Geological have a proven track record of lithium discovery, with a related company being the original vendor of Patriot Battery Metal's Corvette Property in Quebec. Dahrouge has already commenced work with analysis of Foremost's extensive data room, compiling and analyzing historical data from previously completed exploration and drilling. Dahrouge intends to utilize this data compilation to assist with current and future programs in consultation with Foremost's Vice President of Exploration, Mark Fedikow.
Jason Barnard, Foremost's President and CEO comments, "Our Company has been fortunate to work with Jody Dahrouge and his team on previous projects. Their company has had a consistent presence in Quebec over the last 15 years, and the breadth of contacts makes an ideal team to lead our exploration in that province. Through this strategic collaboration, we look to expand upon all our previous exploration work to maximize our resource potential."
Jody Dahrouge states, "We are very excited to assist with Foremost's Lithium Lane Porperties, where exploration opportunities range from grass roots to advanced. By example, The Grass River Property has numerous surface outcrops of spodumene pegmatite, which have never been effectively drill tested, while past drilling at Zoro has produced a small but open resource."
