The 560 acre Raleigh Lake Lithium property is located 22 kilometres west of the town of Ignace in the Raleigh Township of Kenora Mining Division, Province of Ontario. The Raleigh Lake Lithium property is ideally located 5 km south of the Trans Canada Highway equidistant between the towns of Dryden and Ignace, Ontario. Accessibility to the property is also readily available with infrastructure and power nearby. Raleigh Lake lithium bearing pegmatites have been known in the area since the 1960's. Provincial government mapping in the 1990's identified a 'Pegmatite Field' trending through the area. A modest drilling program by Avalon Ventures Ltd. in 1999 and 2000 defined several stacked shallow dipping (20-30 degrees) tantalum-lithium bearing dikes in several drill holes. Thicknesses ranged from 1 to 8 metres and were shown to continue 450 metres down dip. Drill holes were relatively shallow and broadly spaced. The pegmatites appear very uniform at the spacing used and occur in volcanic rock flanking granitic intrusions. Only 4 to 5 shallow holes were drilled on the Raleigh Lake property. Historic data available in the Ontario Government geological files reflect certain intersections below. Hole # RL 99-01 0.56% Li (lithium) over 3.2 metres Hole # RL 99-04 1.00% Li over 4.1 metres Hole # RL 99-05 1.50% Li over 6.9 metres In the fall of 2009 a crew was mobilized to the Raleigh Lake Lithium project. The initial exploration program consisted of compilation of previous data from a modest drill program that was completed in 1999, locating of drill collars in the field and the re-logging of existing core. A detailed mapping program of abundant lithium bearing pegmatite outcrops located on the Raleigh Lake property and a tightly spaced detailed magnetometer program to better define the known geological structures will also be completed. Drilling on the Raleigh Lake Lithium and Tantalum zone is underway. A phase one drill program consisting of 6 holes totalling approximately 1400 metres will be carried out by Rodren Drilling of Winnipeg, Manitoba. A detailed magnetometer survey was completed across the entire property in November 2009. Structural interpretations from the magnetic data are being used in targeting of the drill holes on the property. | |||||
