CDN Maverick Capital Corp. announced the mobilization of GroundTruth Exploration to conduct the Phase I reconnaissance of the Poncheville Lithium Prospects. These prospects span nearly 40,000 hectares across the Poncheville and Chabinoche properties and are located approximately 65 km northeast of the mining town of Matagami.

Maverick and the GroundTruth technical team have planned a comprehensive prospecting program to map and identify potential lithium pegmatite occurrences within this large land package. About 90 reconnaissance traverses spaced 1,000m apart for a total of approximately 400 linear kilometers had been planned over both properties. The team is equipped with SciAps 901Z LIBS analyzers, a tool that allows onsite lithium and pathfinder element testing and composite sample collection from prioritized outcrops.

This approach will assist in creating a preliminary geochemical map of the lithium bearing anomalies on properties. High-resolution (5cm-7cm pixel resolution) orthophoto and DEM on the first identified targets will be undertaken using drone-assisted orthoimagery and Lidar. Samples are prepared and dispatched from the exploration camp to the nearby SGS preparation facility in Val D'or on a weekly basis, after which they will be shipped to SGS lab in Burnaby, BC for assaying.
