Brunswick Exploration (TSX-V:BRW) has identified Greenland’s “largest spodumene-bearing pegmatite trend,” via expanding the Ivisaartoq lithium pegmatite field first discovered in 2024 on the Nuuk licence.
The company reveals the trend now extends over a 2km strike length after discovering eight new pegmatite outcrops that occur within a corridor measuring 2,000m long by 300m wide which remains open in all directions.
Brunswick Exploration is currently designing and evaluating the opportune time to begin a comprehensive drilling program at Ivisaartoq.
The spodumene corridor is within a larger, highly favourable, geochemically anomalous envelope measuring roughly 3km by 1.5km. The envelope contains numerous additional, highly fractionated pegmatites.
Brunswick Exploration believes that there is potential to host further spodumene pegmatites at surface and at depth within the corridor, the larger geochemically anomalous envelope, as well as the entire south Ivisaartoq belt.
“The discovery of this 2km by 300m area of spodumene-bearing dykes is a testament to Brunswick Exploration’s systematic and efficient approach,” CEO Killian Charles says.
Further, grab and channel samples are being sent for analysis to ALS in Dublin, Ireland, and thin section samples will be prepared and examined for mineralogical understanding. The size, orientation, and overall grade of the pegmatite outcrops will be better established as the drilling program progresses.
The Ivisaartoq pegmatite field – part of the larger Nuuk license – is hosted within the Ivisaartoq Greenstone Belt. The trend is located 90km northeast of Nuuk, the capital of Greenland, on the Western central coast of the country.
Lithium is a critical mineral for producing electric vehicle batteries and a host of other applications that are propelling the global shift towards decarbonisation and renewable sources of energy.
Trading Economics reports that lithium carbonate prices rose past CNY$75,000 ($16,005) per tonne in August, nearly erasing this year’s slump to the highest since March as the possibility of lower output from key mined countered oversupply worries.
Brunswick Exploration is a Canadian explorer and developer focused on its underexplored pegmatite fields across Canada and Greenland.
