Champion Electric Metals Mobilizes Crew for Field Program Following Recent Lithium Discovery at Its Lithium Property in James Bay, Quebec

04.06.2024  |  Newsfile

Toronto, June 4, 2024 - Champion Electric Metals Inc. (CSE: LTHM) (OTCQB: CHELF) (FSE: 1QB0) ("Champion Electric" or the "Company") is pleased to report that it has commenced preparations for the spring field program following discovery of lithium in its maiden drilling program at its Lithium Property in James Bay, Quebec, with the crew on its way to the site.

The maiden field program led to the discovery of the first buried lithium pegmatite on the western portion of the property by following up on the discovery of spodumene in till samples. Drill holes EIQ24-007 and EIQ24-008 passed through shallow glacial cover and encountered significant intervals of coarse spodumene crystals and potentially economic lithium mineralization over two to three metres (see Figure 1). Given that pegmatite dykes occur in clusters and that this initial drilling may have just cut the narrow tail of much larger dykes, the Champion Electric technical team has designed a follow-up field program to target the likely continuation of the pegmatite mineral system.

Champion Electric's field work will commence immediately to the northeast of the recently discovered mineralized pegmatite with prospecting, mapping, geophysics, and excavation and channel sampling. The team will also continue with additional till sampling along the pegmatite trend. Field crews will be clearing overburden and road building to prepare for the next round of drilling, for which permits have been received and drill contracts assigned.

Jonathan Buick, President and CEO, commented: "Our team has previously used prospecting, mapping, and geophysics to identify two parallel corridors of pegmatite stretching for more than 5 km, and the geochemistry along those trends is favourable for more lithium mineralization. The field season in 2023 was dramatically shortened by the fires, and we are armed with new high-resolution LiDAR imagery and a number of pegmatite discovery stories where subtle spodumene-bearing outcrop was identified by tenacious geologists and prospectors. We are determined to test this fertile environment as exploration moves along those corridors. Now that we have seen till sampling successfully lead us to spodumene, we are also continuing our systematic till sampling in the covered areas of this vast property. We can already envision new drill targets kilometres away, but we are initially focused on the continuation of the known targets along trend where they remain open."
