VAL-D'OR, QC, Dec. 11,
2023 /CNW/ - We are proud to share the highly
promising results of the maiden mineral resource estimate (MRE) for
our Adina Lithium Project (Adina), located in the Eeyou Istchee
James Bay region of Quebec.
This first MRE of 59Mt at 1.12% Li2O confirms the
exceptional lithium potential of our claims and confirms Winsome
Resources' (Winsome's) place among the world's major lithium
players.
This MRE positions Winsome as one of the top 5 lithium projects
in Quebec, among the top 10 in
North America, and globally in the
top 20.
"The announcement of our maiden MRE marks a significant
milestone for the Adina Lithium Project and is an historic moment
for Winsome Resources. Just over a year ago, our first sampling
expedition began at Adina, and it is a remarkable achievement by
our exploration team to have since declared one of the largest hard
rock MREs in North America," said
Chris Evans, Managing Director.
These results are the fruit of our team's expertise,
particularly our field team's ability to target sites of interest
for the drilling campaign, as well as the valuable collaboration
developed with the Eeyou Istchee James Bay community in
Quebec.
The announcement of the MRE is an important milestone, paving
the way for other milestones to come, including the preliminary
economic assessment and the pre-feasibility study, which are
expected in the second half of 2024.
With these excellent results, Winsome is well positioned to meet
the growing global demand for lithium and is more determined than
ever to play a leading role in Quebec and Canada's strategy for critical and strategic
minerals.
Winsome remains committed to acting in a spirit of collaboration
and sharing with local communities, and to setting exemplary
industry standards in environmental protection.
