ROUYN-NORANDA, QC, June 8, 2022
/CNW Telbec/ - X-Terra Resources Inc. (TSXV: XTT) (FRANKFURT: XTR)
("X-Terra") is pleased to announce it has acquired another Lithium
property immediately east of the Lithium Metal Tech Ltd Adina
Lithium project located in James
Bay, Québec. This is in addition the recently acquired claim
blocks totalling over 10,000 hectares located in the James Bay region of northern Québec that are
collectively known as the Triple Lithium Project (see press release
dated June 2, 2022).
X-Terra received confirmation from the Ministère de l'Énergie et
des ressources Naturelles du Québec (the "MERN") for 38 designated
claims adjoining to the east the Lithium Metals Tech Adina project.
The area covers approximately 2,018 hectares located about 60
kilometres south of the Trans-Taiga Highway.
The geological context of where these claims are located was
recognized by provincial geological mapping as a contact between a
volcanic unit to the south (Trieste Formation) and a tonalite and
granodiorite intrusions (Joubert
Suite). The Adina Lithium bearing pegmatites, found
approximately 2.5 kilometres along strike to the west, is located
very close to this contact. According to the Sigéom database, the
Adina Lithium pegmatite system was discovered in 2014 during a
regional mapping program by the MERN. At that specific location,
the initial survey highlighted the indication of multiple dykes
which are scattered over an area of about two square kilometres.
The lithium mineralization is represented by spodumene, associated
by varied accessory minerals such as tourmaline and apatite.
X-Terra has secured control of approximately three kilometres of
the targeted contact. And upon further examination of
high-resolution aerial imagery, the area presents numerous
prospects for large pegmatite intrusions.
Michael Ferreira, President and
Chief Executive Officer of X-Terra commented: "Adding another
promising Lithium project to our property portfolio expands our
diversification strategy and continues to add opportunities for our
shareholders. We look forward to beginning our exploration on our
newly acquired lithium properties in the coming weeks."
