SO disrespectful to Canadians.....
This is OUR company - NOT YOURS' !
PROPER ticker symbol = VLI
NOT ABEPF
Here we already have a processing plant for materials mined, We have millions in financing available for mining operations, We have in place a seller of materials that already exist. We have future financing available now that the ore has been found to be 99.9 percent pure iithium, we have the highest concentrations in the world. We still have a great share structure. And we are years into this already, LIthium reports show 2021 exploding in price for lithium purity for battery grade used in all electric vehicles,
According to the agreement, Nemaska Lithium will have a pre-emptive right to participate in any future equity financing as long as it holds at least 10% of Vision Lithium’s issued and outstanding common shares. In addition, Nemaska Lithium was granted the following additional rights:
• a right of first refusal to purchase any concentrate originating from the Sirmac Property for further processing at its Shawinigan hydro-metallurgical facility;
• the right to act as exclusive marketing agent for all lithium salts from concentrate originating from the Sirmac Property;
• the right to receive a 2% marketing fee, in cash, on the gross proceeds from the sale of lithium products derived from concentrate originating from the Sirmac Property sold by Nemaska Lithium (and from any concentrate otherwise sold by Vision Lithium that is not purchased by Nemaska Lithium); and
• a right of first refusal to reacquire the Sirmac Property in the event that Vision Lithium wishes to sell or otherwise assign and transfer its right, title and interest in and to the Sirmac Property.
Thanks, will check it out! I would PM you but I can't until happy hour lol, I think IMCI is also very likely to see dollar+ run this year
Add WCEXF, undervalued gem!
ZOM, ALPP, SIRC, ABEPF pennies to dollars and they just keep on coming lol. I think we will finish this year with 100x our capital or more.
lol alerted ZOM when it was 7 cents!
Blue...it's already happened. $ZOM went from $1 to $2.50.....ABEPF went from .05 to .50 just this week. Actually a MUCH better run than $ZOM.
ABEPF expecting ZOM type run
Huge News for our stock AMEPF!
Another phenomenal pick....already up 1000% from a couple weeks ago and the news is JUST HITTING NOW
Shares are still tight at 65 cents
WILD
wow!!! look at the pps OVER .62 I bought yesterday !!!!!! great news heading to 5.00 dollars now people!!!!
Monster news, should hit multi-dollars
NEWS: Vision Lithium Makes 99.99% Pure Lithium Carbonate from Sirmac Lithium Property https://markets.ft.com/data/announce/detail?dockey=600-202102110305CANADANWCANADAPR_C1423-1
VAL-D'OR, QC, Feb. 11, 2021 /CNW/ - Vision Lithium Inc. (TSXV: VLI) (OTC: ABEPF) (the "Company" or "Vision Lithium") is pleased to announce that it has produced lithium carbonate (Li2CO3) grading at 99.9% which was derived from lithium concentrate made from its 100% owned Sirmac lithium property at SGS Canada Inc. (SGS) at the Lakefield laboratory. SGS also produced the lithium concentrate sample grading 6.2% Li2O (see 2019 Q1 MD&A on SEDAR), which was used as the starting point for the lithium carbonate. The Sirmac property is located approximately 200 kilometres south of Whabouchi lithium mine and 180 kilometres by road north-west of Chibougamau, Quebec. It consists of 35 mining claims covering approximately 1,573 hectares.
Yves Rougerie, President and CEO of Vision Lithium commented, "This is a significant step in proving a battery grade lithium carbonate can made from lithium ore taken from the Sirmac project. It's an important technical milestone for any lithium company to show the full value chain is technically achievable."
Outcrop samples and drill core samples from the 2018 drilling program as well as from the Nemaska drilling program of 2012 on the main #5 dike were sent to SGS for metallurgical tests for a Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) level metallurgical test work program. The samples were combined into one Main Composite, one High Grade Composite, and three variability samples, based on instructions provided by Vision Lithium. The metallurgical test work program included sample preparation, mineralogical analysis, grindability, magnetic separation, heavy liquid separation (HLS), dense media separation (DMS), and flotation testing. The tests were successful in recovering 88.3% of the lithium at a grade of 6.23% Li2O. Following receipt of these excellent results, SGS produced an amount 91.9 grams of very high purity lithium carbonate in 2020.
The results from the lithium carbonate samples confirm that all specifications for trace elements are met and that this is a premium product. Specifications for the final lithium carbonate samples produced as shown in Table 1.
Table 1 – Lithium Carbonate Final Grade Specifications (CNW Group/Vision Lithium Inc.)
High-grade lithium carbonate production methodology
To produce high-grade lithium carbonate, the combined pregnant leach solution (PLS) from the water leach tests (WL-1 to WL-5) was first purified by primary and secondary impurity removal steps. Further purification to >99.5% was performed by ion-exchange (IX) followed by lithium carbonate precipitation. Finally, bicarbonate polishing was conducted to achieve battery-grade purity of >99.9%. The diagram of lithium carbonate production is shown on Figure 2.

wow some news must have just came out bid at .5499 for 1,355,076 millions shares GEEZ!!!! thats over 650,000.00 dollars on the bid !!!!
Go Vision Lithium!
Thank you for the alert... made the most in a day I have every made... newbie here so appreciate the insights
Awesome post, great DD, every ABEPF investors must read. A member mark for you!
I do not want to get ahead of the curve here too much, but ABEPF should be valued at no less than $20.00. Based on potential reserves in their Sirmac land holding alone, that figure is very conservative in my opinion compared to other Lithium stocks! When you figure the Li2O in the Sirmac site with the potential availability of 304000 metric tons and the average grade of the material, the reserves that this company holds just in this one holding, brings tremendous value to the company and the stockholders.

Vision Lithium Announces Proposed Acquisition of Godslith Lithium Property
Canada NewsWire
VAL-D'OR, QC, Oct. 22, 2019
VAL-D'OR, QC, Oct. 22, 2019 /CNW/ - Vision Lithium Inc. (TSXV: VLI) (OTC PINK: ABEPF) (the "Company" or "Vision Lithium") is pleased to announce that it has entered into a binding letter of intent with Messrs. James C. Campbell and Peter C. Dunlop (collectively, the "Vendors") and the Manto Sipi Cree Nation (the "MSCN"), on an arm's length basis, to acquire all of the right, title, and interest of the Vendors in and to the non-surveyed, unpatented mineral claim and mineral exploration licence covering approximately 5,107 hectares known as the Godslith lithium property (the "Property"). The Property is located within and surrounding the MSCN and its traditional territory, in the God's Lake area of the province of Manitoba (the "Transaction").
Pursuant to the terms of the Transaction, Vision Lithium will issue to the Vendors 4,000,000 common shares of the Company (the "Shares") and will grant the Vendors a 3% net smelter returns royalty (the "Royalty"). The Shares will be subject to escrow and released in four equal tranches of 1,000,000 Shares over an 18-month period. One-third of the Royalty (1%) may be repurchased by the Company for $1,000,000 and an additional one-third (1%) may be repurchased by the Company for an additional $2,000,000.
The Transaction will be carried out by way of a definitive purchase agreement to be entered into between the parties (the "Purchase Agreement") and an exploration agreement to be negotiated and entered into between Vision Lithium and the MSCN (the "Exploration Agreement") to establish a long-term, mutually beneficial, cooperative and respectful relationship based on trust and certainty concerning the exploration program to be carried out by Vision Lithium on the Property.
Historical Estimates for the Godslith Property
In connection with the Transaction, the Company has received an independent technical report on the Property (the "Technical Report"), dated August 26, 2009, that was prepared for First Lithium Resources Inc. by qualified person Mark Fedikow Ph.D., P.Eng., P.Geo., C.P.G. in accordance with National Instrument 43-101 – Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects ("NI 43-101").
The Company is pleased to present certain historical estimates and additional information on the Property based on work performed by Inco Limited between 1958-1961. The technical information discussed below is derived from the Technical Report and previous news releases of First Lithium.
The Technical Report details the geological setting of the Property's lithium-bearing pegmatite and reviews the historical exploration results obtained by Inco that indicated a historic resource of 4.8-million tons with a weighted average grade of 1.27% Li2O over a weighted average true width of 36.2 feet using a cut-off grade of 0.70% Li2O. Probable historic resource estimates were calculated at 4.6-million tons at an estimated grade of 1.14% Li2O. The Technical Report also provides recommendations for future exploration work and includes an initial program of prospecting and geological mapping followed by soil geochemical surveys designed to assess the area for additional pegmatite dykes and base and precious metals. A diamond drill program has also been recommended for the purpose of extending the Li-bearing pegmatite on the Property to depths below those indicated by the historic Inco drilling.
While the Company considers these historical estimates to be relevant to investors, as they may indicate the presence of mineralization, a qualified person has not done sufficient work for Vision Lithium to classify the historical estimates as current "mineral resources" or "mineral reserves" (as defined in NI 43-101). The foregoing historical estimates were calculated prior to the implementation of NI 43-101 and the Company is not treating these historical estimates as current "mineral resources" or "mineral reserves".
A Phase 1 program of diamond drilling would provide confirmation of the extent of the pegmatite at depth and provide the basis for information that could be used to expand diamond drilling and determine a current resource for the target.
Victor Cantore, Executive Chairman of Vision Lithium commented, "The Godslith project is an excellent addition to our lithium portfolio of properties and I am eager to validate the historical exploration work that has been done on the property to date. In our estimation, we see this project as having tremendous exploration upside. This is a very good time to accumulate lithium assets in excellent jurisdictions at favourable valuations and we will be opportunistic and continue to consider projects that are accretive to Vision Lithium's project portfolio."
The scientific and technical information in this release has been reviewed and approved by Yves Rougerie, Geologist, President and CEO of the Company. Mr. Rougerie is a "qualified person" as defined in NI 43-101.
Closing Conditions
The Transaction remains subject to a number of conditions, including:
completion of customary due diligence investigations to the satisfaction of Vision Lithium;
the signing of a definitive Purchase Agreement;
the negotiation and signing of the Exploration Agreement on terms and conditions mutually acceptable to Vision Lithium and the MSCN;
the approval of the Company's board of directors;
the appointment of Mr. James Campbell to the Company's board of directors;
Vision Lithium receiving a satisfactory title opinion on the Property;
receipt of all necessary consents and approvals, including the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange (the "TSXV"); and
standard closing conditions for transactions of this nature.
Completion of the Transaction is expected to occur no later than November 30, 2019.

ABEPF:Highest grade hard rock lithium deposit in the world
NEMASKA LITHIUM RELATIONSHIP
On December 14, 2017, Vision Lithium announced the signing of a definitive asset purchase agreement for a 100% undivided interest in the Sirmac Lithium Property from Nemaska Lithium Inc. Vision Lithium issued $250,000 cash payment and 15,000,000 common shares of Vision Lithium to Nemaska Lithium bringing its ownership of Vision Lithium to approximately 19.9% of Vision Lithium shares. In addition, Vision Lithium assumed a pre-existing 1% NSR on certain claims comprising the Sirmac Property.
According to the agreement, Nemaska Lithium will have a pre-emptive right to participate in any future equity financing as long as it holds at least 10% of Vision Lithium’s issued and outstanding common shares. In addition, Nemaska Lithium was granted the following additional rights:
• a right of first refusal to purchase any concentrate originating from the Sirmac Property for further processing at its Shawinigan hydro-metallurgical facility;
• the right to act as exclusive marketing agent for all lithium salts from concentrate originating from the Sirmac Property;
• the right to receive a 2% marketing fee, in cash, on the gross proceeds from the sale of lithium products derived from concentrate originating from the Sirmac Property sold by Nemaska Lithium (and from any concentrate otherwise sold by Vision Lithium that is not purchased by Nemaska Lithium); and
• a right of first refusal to reacquire the Sirmac Property in the event that Vision Lithium wishes to sell or otherwise assign and transfer its right, title and interest in and to the Sirmac Property.
Approval from the TSX Venture was received in January 2018.
GEOLOGY
The Sirmac property is located in the North-East part of the Superior geological province, in the Frotet-Evans volcano-sedimentary belt. Four types of rocks outcrop on the Sirmac property: quartz-biotite-hornblende schists, amphibolitized flows or mafic sills, syenite pluton, and pegmatites, some of which are spodumene-bearing. The main foliation strikes E-W and has a steep dip. More than twelve granitic pegmatite dykes, whose thickness ranges from 1 to 100 m, have been identified. All of these cut the host schists and generally strike NNW-SSE (315°/350°), with an apparent sub-vertical dip and steep contacts with host rocks.
MINERALIZATION
The type of deposit associated with the lithium mineralization of the Sirmac property is a granitic, rare element-bearing pegmatite due to the presence of spodumene. In dyke #5—the known deposit—spodumene crystals are euhedral, with color and size varying from white to greenish- or grayish-white and from 1 to 30 cm in size, with an average size of 10 cm. The amount of spodumene found in the pegmatite ranges from 5 to 30% in volume. In general, the crystals are slightly altered and frequently contain rounded inclusions of quartz. A historical resource estimate was performed on the deposit by Wrightbar Mines Ltd. in 1994, with results indicating a total of 314,328 tonnes grading 2.04% Li2O.
HISTORICAL RESOURCE ESTIMATE
In 2012, Nemaska Lithium conducted a successful exploration campaign. In total, 9 sites were mechanically stripped for a surface area of approximately 13,000 m2. There were 29 channels completed over 739 metres for a total of 506 samples (selected results below, for full results see the Nemaska Lithium news release dated November 5, 2012).
Also as part of the same exploration program, Nemaska Lithium completed a diamond drill campaign of 72 shallow drill holes (3,414.5 m). A total of 1,953 samples, including quality control samples (13%), were sent to the lab for assay (selected results below, for full results see the Nemaska Lithium news release dated November 13, 2012).
Drill results from this program reported multiple intersections over 2% Li2O. More specifically, Nemaska Lithium intersected mineralization of up to 2.98% Li2O. This grade approaches the grade found at the Greenbushes deposit, which is the highest grade hard rock lithium deposit in the world.
From this work a mineral resources estimate was produced:
Historical Estimates
The existing Technical Report includes the following historical estimates for the Sirmac Property:

Notes:
(1) Effective date of December 2013.
(2) The historical estimates were calculated using the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum (CIM) Definitions Standards for mineral resources in accordance with NI 43-101. Mineral resources which are not mineral reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability. Inferred mineral resources are exclusive of the measured and indicated resources.
(3) Bulk density of 2.70 t/m3 is used. Rounded to the nearest thousand.
(4) Ta2O5 mineralization has yet to demonstrate recoverability and potential for economic extraction.
While the Company considers these historical estimates to be relevant to investors, as they may indicate the presence of mineralization, a qualified person has not done sufficient work for Vision Lithium to classify the historical estimates as current “mineral resources” or “mineral reserves” (as defined in NI 43-101) and the Company is not treating these historical estimates as current “mineral resources” or “mineral reserves”.
All block modelling, 3D solid generation and geological interpretation was conducted by SGS Geostat. Modelling and block interpolation was done using Genesis © software. As of December 2013, no other deposit in the Sirmac Property has mineral resources stated or estimated. In order to limit the mineral resources representing “a reasonable prospect of economic extraction”, a Whittle © Pit optimization was completed using the Lerchs-Grossman 3D algorithm. Considering the blocks limited to the optimized pit shell and a cut-off grade of 0.50% Li2O, the Sirmac Property comprises 185kt of measured resources at 1.40% Li2O, 79kt of indicated resources at 1.40% Li2O, and 40kt of inferred resources at 1.10% Li2O (see Table 1 above). These historical estimates of mineral resources do not represent mining reserves since they have not shown economic viability.
The existing Technical Report confirms that all sample assay results were independently monitored through a QA/QC program including the insertion of blind standards, blanks and the reanalysis of duplicate samples at a second umpire laboratory. The results of the QA/QC program and the resampling program indicate that the sample database is of sufficient accuracy and precision to be used for the generation of the historical estimates.
WORK PLANNED
Vision Lithium intends to start a 2018 exploration program that includes:
• Conduct close-spaced high resolution Mag survey to better define the geometry and extent of the numerous pegmatite dykes on the property
• Create drill program to confirm known mineralization and test other dyke potential
• Metallurgy to confirm ore is amenable to 6% Li2O concentrate
• Metallurgy to confirm concentrate can produce battery grade lithium carbonate and lithium hydroxide
• Update resource calculation

The type of deposit associated with the lithium mineralization of the Sirmac property is a granitic, rare element-bearing pegmatite due to the presence of spodumene. In dyke #5—the known deposit—spodumene crystals are euhedral, with color and size varying from white to greenish- or grayish-white and from 1 to 30 cm in size, with an average size of 10 cm. The amount of spodumene found in the pegmatite ranges from 5 to 30% in volume. In general, the crystals are slightly altered and frequently contain rounded inclusions of quartz. A historical resource estimate was performed on the deposit by Wrightbar Mines Ltd. in 1994, with results indicating a total of 314,328 tonnes grading 2.04% Li2O.
HISTORICAL RESOURCE ESTIMATE
In 2012, Nemaska Lithium conducted a successful exploration campaign. In total, 9 sites were mechanically stripped for a surface area of approximately 13,000 m2. There were 29 channels completed over 739 metres for a total of 506 samples (selected results below, for full results see the Nemaska Lithium news release dated November 5, 2012).
Also as part of the same exploration program, Nemaska Lithium completed a diamond drill campaign of 72 shallow drill holes (3,414.5 m). A total of 1,953 samples, including quality control samples (13%), were sent to the lab for assay (selected results below, for full results see the Nemaska Lithium news release dated November 13, 2012).
Drill results from this program reported multiple intersections over 2% Li2O. More specifically, Nemaska Lithium intersected mineralization of up to 2.98% Li2O. This grade approaches the grade found at the Greenbushes deposit, which is the highest grade hard rock lithium deposit in the world.
From this work a mineral resources estimate was produced:
Historical Estimates
The existing Technical Report includes the following historical estimates for the Sirmac Property:
Table 1: Historical Estimates for the Sirmac Property with 0.50% Li2O Cut-Off Grade
Li2O%(1) Category(1)(2) Tonnage (t)(1)(3) Average Grade Li2O%(1) Average Grade Ta2O5 (ppm)(1)(4)
0.50 Measured 185,000 1.40 70
0.50 Indicated 79,000 1.40 80
0.50 Inferred 40,000 1.10 60
Notes:
(1) Effective date of December 2013.
(2) The historical estimates were calculated using the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum (CIM) Definitions Standards for mineral resources in accordance with NI 43-101. Mineral resources which are not mineral reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability. Inferred mineral resources are exclusive of the measured and indicated resources.
(3) Bulk density of 2.70 t/m3 is used. Rounded to the nearest thousand.
(4) Ta2O5 mineralization has yet to demonstrate recoverability and potential for economic extraction.
While the Company considers these historical estimates to be relevant to investors, as they may indicate the presence of mineralization, a qualified person has not done sufficient work for Vision Lithium to classify the historical estimates as current “mineral resources” or “mineral reserves” (as defined in NI 43-101) and the Company is not treating these historical estimates as current “mineral resources” or “mineral reserves”.
All block modelling, 3D solid generation and geological interpretation was conducted by SGS Geostat. Modelling and block interpolation was done using Genesis © software. As of December 2013, no other deposit in the Sirmac Property has mineral resources stated or estimated. In order to limit the mineral resources representing “a reasonable prospect of economic extraction”, a Whittle © Pit optimization was completed using the Lerchs-Grossman 3D algorithm. Considering the blocks limited to the optimized pit shell and a cut-off grade of 0.50% Li2O, the Sirmac Property comprises 185kt of measured resources at 1.40% Li2O, 79kt of indicated resources at 1.40% Li2O, and 40kt of inferred resources at 1.10% Li2O (see Table 1 above). These historical estimates of mineral resources do not represent mining reserves since they have not shown economic viability.
The existing Technical Report confirms that all sample assay results were independently monitored through a QA/QC program including the insertion of blind standards, blanks and the reanalysis of duplicate samples at a second umpire laboratory. The results of the QA/QC program and the resampling program indicate that the sample database is of sufficient accuracy and precision to be used for the generation of the historical estimates.

The Company has an interest or option to acquire an interest in the following properties:
https://visionlithium.com/sirmac/
-------------------------------------------
Dôme Lemieux, QC
The Dôme Lemieux is 100% owned. Consists of 225 map-designated claims totalling 12,056 ha or roughly 120 km2. The property is located in eastern Québec in the Gaspésie region, approximately 32 km SSE of the town of Sainte-Anne-des-Monts, Québec, as the crow flies. The Dôme Lemieux property has a rich history of low grade to high grade lead, zinc and copper discoveries. The Dome Lemieux property is located less than 200km north by road from the newly acquired New Brunswick, creating synergies for the exploration of both sites.
Accordingly, Vision Lithium has planned a 1,600 km helicopter-borne magnetic survey (MAG) in Q2. Interpretation of the survey will follow and be released in this quarter. These results will be correlated with historical work done on the property to identify drill targets. Following geophysics interpretation, the Company expects to launch a minimum of a 3,000-metre diamond drilling program, testing multiple deep porphyry copper targets and several shallower polymetallic (Cu-Zn; Zn-Pb-Ag, Au) targets.
New Brunswick Properties
Red Brook, NB Epithermal, NB and Benjamin, NB. The three contiguous Properties comprise 17 mineral claims covering 4,760 hectares (47.6 km2) located approximately 60 km West of the mining centre of Bathurst in Northern New Brunswick.
Wholly owned 100% Interest
On June 3 , 2020, Vision Lithium announced the signing of a definitive purchase agreement for the arm’s length
acquisition of a 100% undivided interest in the Red Brook, (Red Brook)-Epithermal and Benjamin mineral exploration properties from 9248-7792 Quebec Inc. and Prospect Or Corp. The three contiguous Properties comprise 17 mineral claims covering 4,760 hectares (47.6 km2) located approximately 60 km West of the mining centre of Bathurst in Northern New Brunswick. The Properties are easily accessible by year-round, well-maintained forestry road infrastructure. An additional 30 claim-units were added to the Epithermal group in the summer.
Under the agreement, Vision Lithium issued 6,000,000 common shares of the Company to 9248-7792 Quebec Inc. and 4,000,000 common shares to Prospect Or Corp and granted the vendors a 2% net smelter return royalty on the Properties, one-half of which may be repurchased by Vision Lithium for $1,000,000.
The Properties are located west of the Bathurst VMS District. A sequence of Ordovician and Silurian supracrustal rocks is intruded by Middle Devonian Granodiorite as well as other Siluro-Devonian felsic intrusions with which porphyry, skarn and other mineralization is genetically and spatially related. Similar Cu porphyry-base metal skarn related mineralization occurs at Gaspé-Needle Mountain porphyry copper deposit and at the Company’s Dôme Lemieux property associated with Devonian intrusives in the Gaspésie region of Quebec. Work on these properties was delayed due to COVID related access restrictions and significant work is now planned for the next fiscal year.
Red Brook Property
Following the discovery by prospectors of rocks with a high zinc content of up to 13%, a large stripping program was completed by previous operators on two highly altered zones (A and B). Zone “A” returned values of up to 15% Zn as well as gold and copper values up to 2.62 g/t Au and 0.5% Cu.
Best Selected Samples from Zone “A” on the Red Brook Property:
the Red Brook property has never been tested by drilling. In 2021 the Company was active on the Red Brook copper asset and flew a ~900 km helicopter-borne magnetic and electromagnetic survey (MAG-EM) flown at 50-metre spacings over the property. The survey was flown at low altitude and collected high resolution data which is now being interpreted and correlated with historical sample results and drilling to identify high-priority drill targets.
Geophysics results and details of a planned 1,500-metre drill program, testing targets will be released in Q2, with assay results to follow. Ground exploration of the Benjamin and Epithermal properties which are east of Red Brook is also planned for the summer. Groundwork will include prospecting, trenching, and sampling. Results are to be expected in Q3.
Epithermal Property
The Epithermal property is located in between and contiguous to both the Red Brook and Benjamin properties. It was only recently staked following construction of new forestry access roads. The vendors discovered a large outcrop of sericite-altered rhyolite with apparent breccia textures and quartz veins. A single sample assayed 40 ppb Au, indicating a fertile environment for gold mineralization. The occurrence has no reported prospecting or drilling history. Field work is required to advance this new and exciting prospect.
Benjamin Property
The Benjamin property is located east of the Epithermal property. The property covers approximately 15 sq. km. and is host to a copper-molybdenum porphyry type deposit in intensely altered and fractured granodiorite porphyry, part of a Devonian intrusive complex. Best historical intersections include 218m @ 0.22% Cu, 312m @ 0.12% Cu, 52m @ 0.20% Cu, 10m @ 0.39% Cu and 10m @ 0.30% Cu.
Stratmat first explored the area in 1954, followed by Soquem-Temex in the 1970’s. In the summer of 2019, the Vendors located two old trenches using a Lidar map, and resampled the old trench of hole 7014, as well as the old trench in the South C zone. The trenches exhibit altered and mineralized rocks. The trench along hole 7014 returned values of up to 1.14 g/t Au. The description of the drill hole in the Soquem report describes a 200m hole with mineralized rhyolite, which appears to coincide with the surface rocks found in the trench. Drill holes were not assayed for gold at the time of drilling. The core for several of the historic drill holes is preserved and may be available for resampling and assaying for gold.
The Benjamin property has been recognized as a porphyry copper-moly type. It is near a large granite intrusive. Only a relatively small area near the intrusive has been tested. A thorough prospecting program is recommended along with trenching and sampling and ground IP surveys. In addition, a review of the porphyry deposit is warranted to model the deposit, evaluate its potential at depth and its gold potential. The property warrants a further evaluation for porphyry deposits and contact related skarn deposits and their gold potential.
The Company is planning exploration programs for these Properties in 2021.
St-Stephen Property
The St-Stephen Property 50% owned, comprises 189 claims located near the town of St. Stephen in the southwest corner of New Brunswick. VLI staked the property in 2004 and 2005 and there are no underlying royalties. Indiana Resources (“IMX”) has acquired an initial 50% interest in the property following a 4-year, million-dollar expenditure on the claims. Indiana is the operator of the works.
The Property hosts numerous historic zones of magmatic Ni-Cu-Co mineralization, including several significant occurrences. The most significant zones are found at the Roger’s Farm deposit which was the object of underground development and exploration in 1959-1960. IMX drilled several historic and newly discovered zones and has expanded and enhanced their potential.
