The pegmatites in this region of southeast Manitoba are describ ed as being a part of the Winnipeg
River Pegmatite Field. Several la rge lithium-bearing pegmatites exist in this regi on and exploration
activity in the region is increasing. This pegmatite field is h ost to the world-class Tanco Pegmatite,
which is a highly fractionated Lithium-Cesium-Tantalum (LCT Typ e) pegmatite and has been
mined in varying capacities since 1969. The LCT-type pegmatites can contain large amounts of
Spodumene (one of the primary ores used in hard rock lithium ex t r a c t i o n ) a n d a r e a p r i m a r y
geological target in hard rock li thium exploration. They also c an contain econom ic qualities of
tantalum and cesium as well as other lithium bearing minerals such as mica.
The acquisition of this new project and other recent acquisitio ns has made the New Age
Metals/Azincourt Energy Joint Ven ture the largest claim holder for Lithium Projects in the
Winnipeg River Pegmatite Field. At present, the Joint Venture has eight projects totalling over
14,000 hectares in the Winnipeg River Pegmatite Field.
Work Program Update
Preliminary field work and additional ground proofing is curren tly underway on the Lithium 2
Project. Field work here, and on all of the targeted projects, consists of prospecting, mapping and
sampling that will generate data on the lithium-bearing properties of the pegmatites contained in the
New Age/Azincourt project portfolio.
A primary objective of this work at Lithium 2 is to finalize dr ill plans and ini tiate the 2018 drill
program. A 3000-meter preliminary drill program is scheduled t o commence this summer at both
the Lithium 1 and Lithium 2 projects. Management of both compan ies plan to update their
shareholders and interested parties with regular updates from the ground over the coming weeks and
months.
Terms
This addition to the original JV agreement with New Age Metals commits Azincourt to an
additional $250,000 worth of explor ation spend over the life of the partnership and has increased
the 2018 exploration budget by $100,000. New Age Metals will a lso receive and additional
250,000 shares of Azincourt as part of the terms of the deal. For complete terms of the existing
agreement please refer to the Azincourt news release dated January 15, 2018.
