DIOS acquires Pontax-North Lithium property
Montreal, Quebec, Canada – Management of Dios Exploration Inc . is very pleased to
report Dios acquired the Pontax-North lithium property within James Bay prolific
lithium region of central Quebec, Canada. It is located north of Pontax River and some
23km south of KM381 facilities.
Pontax-North lithium is also located some 6 km north (and west) of Pontax-Lithium
prospect (1.16% Li2O over 30.55m) of Striae Resources and about 23 km due south of
Galaxy Resources James Bay/Cyr lithium deposit (40.3Mt @1.40%Li2O resource) for
which Canada Environment federal minister just gave its approval on January 16 to start
this new lithium mine in James Bay.
The Pontax-North lithium project covers favourable rocks (paragneiss) along the margins
of a 23 by 5-10 km magnetic felsic pluton with a prospective section some 10-11 km long.
Pontax-North claims are also located in the axis of SW-NE glacial movement and along
a cluster of lithium metal lake sediment anomalies combined with useful other anomalous
critical elements.* The claims are also located in the vicinities of several magnetic features
intersecting the general SW-NE magnetic trend. Pontax-North lithium totals 33 wholly-
owned claims for 1760 hectares. Field work is planned in 2023.
Geochemical signature is comparable to Pivert-Rose deposit and Pontax-Lithium prospect
with even higher values in secondary environment. Pontax-Lithium (lithium-tantalum-
bearing pegmatite dikes) was discovered and successfully drilled in the scope of former
joint Dios/Sirios Resources exploration project under supervision of Harold Desbiens
