Q2 Metals Cisco lithium property

More ‘upside potential exists’ at Q2 Metals’ Cisco

Q2 Metals (TSX-V:QTWO) plans to continue growing the “already very large” mineralised system at the Cisco Lithium Property, located within the greater Nemaska traditional territory of the Eeyou Istchee James Bay region of Québec, Canada. 

Reporting further assay results from the 2024 drilling campaign at Cisco, the company says all drillholes intersected pegmatite with visual indications of spodumene mineralisation identified.

Vice President of Exploration Neil McCallum says the results of hole 23 confirmed the continuity of spodumene mineralisation over the 850m strike length and, combined with drillhole 22, which underscores the down-dip continuity between holes 13, 17, 18, and 22, reinforces confidence in the scale of Cisco

“Significantly more upside potential exists, and we plan to continue growing the already very large system to both the south and the east in our upcoming winter exploration program,” McCallum says.

A total of 6,359.7m over 17 drillholes was completed during the 2024 drill campaign at Cisco. Analytic results for drillhole CS-24-020 remain to be reported.

The most recent analytical results reported represent 1,188.1m of drilling over two holes during the 2024 drill campaign.

Drillhole CS-24-022 was collared 200m behind and on the same line as drillhole CS-24-018 to test the continuity of the mineralised system to the southeast. 

A total of 10 individual spodumene pegmatite intervals were encountered in drillhole CS24-022. The drillhole confirmed the continuity of the mineralised system to the southeast with three separate intervals grading at or over 1.55% Li2O.

Drillhole CS-24-018 was the first hole with analytic results that confirmed the large, mineralised zone to the south with a 215.6m interval grading 1.69% Li2O, including 64.6m at 2.29% Li2O.

Drillhole CS-24-023 confirmed that the main large continuous pegmatite system continues to the south.

Q2 Metals is a Canadian mineral exploration company focused on unlocking its portfolio of lithium projects in the Eeyou Istchee James Bay region that includes both its 100% ]owned Mia and the Cisco lithium properties.

Cisco Lithium is located approximately 150km north of Matagami and comprises 767 mineral claims and is 39,389ha in size.

The company will be exhibiting at this year’s Prospectors & Developers Association of Canada (PDAC) event being held from 2-5 March in Toronto, Canada.

The annual award winning convention brings together up to 30,000 attendees from over 130 countries for its educational programming, networking events, as well as business and investment opportunities.
