Quebec Pegmatite Corporation ("QPC"), a subsidiary of the Company, currently holds Quebec MERN mineral claims prospective for lithium in Quebec at their Vieux Comptoir Lithium Project and the Mazerac Lithium Project.
靠近Comptoir锂项目位于两者之间the Corvette Property of Patriot Battery Metal Inc. ("Patriot Battery") and the Adina Project of Winsome Resources Ltd. ("Winsome Resources"). The project area was targeted by the Company and the claims were acquired to obtain a strategic land position within the lithium prospective James Bay region. The Vieux Comptoir Lithium Project is adjacent to established lithium pegmatite occurrences and active successful projects:
- Approximately 45 km east of Patriot Battery's Corvette Property where numerous Spodumene bearing pegmatites have been discovered, and recent drilling includes intersections up to 1.25% Li2O and 194 ppm Ta2O5over 58.1 m. (https://patriotbatterymetals.com/portfolio/corvette/); and
- Approximately 45 km west of Winsome Resources's Adina Project where early-stage explorations have identified outcropping pegmatites across the property returned results up to 4.89% Li2O.

The Vieux Comptoir Lithium Project is located approximately 35 km from the nearest road and airstrip with property access by float plane or helicopter.
Corvette Property - Patriot Battery (TSXV: PMET)
Patriot Battery's Corvette Property is reported to be a large lithium discovery in James Bay region of Quebec.
On December 13, 2022, Patriot Battery reported an update on their Corvette Lithium Project:
“爱国者“导弹发射连金属有限公司(“公司”或“帕特riot") (TSXV: PMET) (ASX: PMT) (OTCQB: PMETF) (FSE: R9GA)is pleased to announce core assay results for twelve (12) additional drill holes (CV22-046, 055, and 057 through 066) from its 2022 drill campaign at its wholly owned Corvette Property (the "Property"), located in the James Bay Region of Quebec. The primary drill area is focused at the CV5 Pegmatite, located approximately 13.5 km south of the regional and all-weather Trans-Taiga Road and powerline infrastructure.
Blair Way, Company President, CEO and Director, comments:
"The Corvette Property continues to deliver with these latest assay results, which include some of our highest grades to date. In addition, the strike length of the CV5 Pegmatite system remains open in all directions with wide widths and strong grades encountered along its currently defined 2.2 km length. I am happy to be back on track with regular news releases of our assay results from the summer-fall drill program. With 38 holes yet to be received from the lab, and re-commencement of drilling in January, we will have continuous news flow on the Property for some time."

Adina Project -Winsome (ASX:WR1)
On January 6, 2023, Winsome provided an update on its Adina Project with respect to its initial assay results from its drill hole AD-22-005. The intial assay results confirm the following significant lithium intercepts in drill hole AD-22-005:
- 1.34% Li2O over 107.6m from 2.3m to 109.9m, including:
- 1.52% Li2O over 20.7m from 2.3m to 23.0m
- 2.21% Li2O over 30.0m from 41.0m to 71.0m
- 1.05% Li2O over 26.5m from 71.0m to 97.5m
- 0.96% Li2O over 6.9m from 103.0 m to 109.9m
- 0.70% Li2O over 52.1m from 124.9m to 177.0m, including:
- 1.08% Li2O over 30.0m from 147.0m to 177.0m
Winsome Resources Managing Director, Chris Evans said:
"It is fantastic to see these impressive levels of lithium mineralisation in drill hole AD-22-005 which provide proof of the Company's previous visual estimates of mineralisation. Having an average of 1.34% Li2O for over 100m of pegmatite from surface speaks of a world-class lithium project and paves the way for the much expanded drill program we now have planned at Adina. It is also very encouraging for the other impressive pegmatite intersections and visual estimates from drilling of subsequent holes up until the Christmas break. We look forward to releasing these assays to the market as soon as they become available."

Summary of Mazerac Lithium Project
On July 25, 2022, Coloured Ties reported that the Company had acquired 108 mineral claims, covering 55 square kilometers in the Cadillac-Pontiac region, about 50 km southwest of Val-d'Or. The claims are immediately adjacent to claims currently held by Winsome Resources and Vision Lithium Inc., a TSXV listed Lithium explorer. The Mazérac claims are accessible by a dense network of trails and other logging roads. The area also accessible through boat or seaplane within watershed of Decelles water reservoir, hosting the Rapid-7 hydroelectric dam of Decelles.
The general area has recently attracted many lithium prospecting and exploration companies such as Brunswick Exploration Inc. (TSXV: BRW), High Tide Resources Corp. (CSE: HTRC), Medaro Mining Corp. (CSE: MEDA), NeoTerrex Corporation (private company), Renforth Resources Inc. (CSE: RFR), Sayona Mining Limited (ASX:SYA), Vision Lithium Inc. (TSXV: VLI), and Winsome Resources.
The Cadillac-Pontiac area has gained attention due to recent discoveries of several high-grade spodumene prospects. The latest discovery of high-grade lithium prospects by Vision Lithium Inc, spurred several other exploration and drill programs within the Cadillac area. Since December 2021, approximately 4000 new claims have been registered in the greater Mazerac area and the Pontiac Sub province region, south of Val-d'Or and Rouyn-Noranda.
