28.05.2024  |  CNW

Highlights

  • Mineral Resource increased 33% to 77.9Mt at 1.15% Li2O at Winsome's flagship Adina Lithium Project (Adina) in the Eeyou Istchee James Bay region of Quebec, Canada

  • Mineral Resource corresponds to 2.21Mt Lithium Carbonate Equivalent (LCE) and confirms Adina's positioning as one of the largest undeveloped lithium deposits in the world

  • 61.4Mt at 1.14% Li2O in the higher confidence Indicated category derived from systematic drilling is a strong foundation for long life project feasibility studies

  • The Adina Mineral Resource outcrops at surface and includes 48.7Mt at 1.20% Li2O in the top 150m from surface (vertical depth) allowing it to be mined by open pit methods.

  • Near surface Main Zone resource now stands at 36Mt at 1.23% Li2O (Indicated and Inferred

  • Ongoing exploration drilling focussed on testing extensions to mineralisation is expected to support continued resource growth with the potential inclusion of mineralisation intersected in drilling west and southwest of Adina Main.

  • This new Mineral Resource update and current metallurgical testwork will underpin both Greenfield and Brownfield project studies on track for completion 2H 2024.

  • Simultaneous technical studies, permitting support studies, and environmental and social impact assessments for Adina underway in parallel with Project project development studies ongoing, including comprehensive environmental baseline work and infrastructure planning.

  • Dense Media Separation (DMS) testwork results provides encouragement for a strong business case for Adina1 .

  • Due diligence work continues on the option to acquire nearby Renard Operation and associated infrastructure with project studies including Renard as an operating scenario

  • Appointment of Ms. Kim-Quyen Nguyen as VP Projects to lead project studies and Mr. Walter Mädel, an internal hard rock lithium processing expert, to support the project team in assessing the potential repurposing of the Renard process plant
