Mining
Harfang Exploration intends to continue exploration of the Milou area, which was recently discovered within the Serpent-Radisson project.
The company claims to have achieved grades of 2.97%, 2.17% and 2.03% of lithium oxide at the new Milo area of its Serpent-Radisson project, after analysing the first batch of samples from the property’s summer 2024 mining programme.
Harfang Exploration assumes that the Milo discovery indicates a potential series of low-slope pegmatite spodumene dikes, and the company intends to test this hypothesis by studying a potential 400-500 metre wide corridor in the field, which could increase the potential for additional lithium discoveries on the property.
“This is an important development for our exploration efforts in the James Bay area. The ice discovery extends the mineralized system to the north and provides additional information about the potential stacking of spodumene-bearing pegmatite dykes. Our team is very encouraged by these results and we look forward to furthering our understanding of the lithium potential in the area,” Vincent Dube-Bourgeois, interim president and CEO of Harfang Exploration, said in an emailed press release.
The company also claims that first drilling activities in the summer of 2024 at the Serpent-Radisson property have discovered important and strategic elements, including lithium and beryllium, in pegmatite dykes on the ground.
