DIOS undertakes exploration work on five James Bay properties, Quebec
Montreal, Quebec, Canada – Dios Exploration starts, as planned, follow-up field work
on wholly-owned LeCaron, Lithium-Nord, East-Clarkie, Nemiscau-Nord and Pontax-Nord
properties in James Bay Lower Eastmain greenstone belt.
"We are enthusiastic about this exploration campaign, allowing us to make up for lost time
during last summer forest fires. We will explore strategic areas of newly acquired
properties with attractive potential for critical elements." said MJ Girard, President of Dios.
Exploration follow-up will focus on first-priority Lithium-Nord and LeCaron projects.
Other follow-up work will target intermediate-priority work on East Clarkie and Eastern
LeCaron including newly acquired claims. A first reconnaissance is planned on Pontax-
Nord and follow-up on Nemiscau-Nord. Large part of claims remains to be explored.
Focus is on Lithium-bearing pegmatites (LCT type) on selected favourable target-areas.
Rocks with fertile signature are observed in northwestern-most part of Lithium-Nord,
where anomalous values were also obtained (March 1, 2024 press release): Nb/Ta versus
Mg/Li ratios values corresponding to fertile magma (Selway et al. 2005). This corresponds
to the western periphery of Uskawasis3 unit as mapped by Quebec Government, just south
of lake sediments yielding high lithium values. That sector may be favourable for LCT
pegmatites occurrences or at least more evolved magma.
Due to forest fires and limited time, helicopter & ground access, last Fall field program
covered less than 12% of claims on 4 projects. We are quite happy to start new field work.
Gold potential on Clarkie and LeCaron
Dios had discovered a Wacke unit on Clarkie with up to 8.88 g/t gold and 6.8 g/t gold in
association with 2 percent pyrite and quartz veinlets (see August 8, 2022 release).
Dios reported on LeCaron the Conductor showing discovery in 2010 with 2.074 g/t gold
over 4.5 m in channel sampling, 1.286 g/t Au over 2.5 m and 9.64 g/t Au over 0.7m
(Government files, SIGEOM).
Gold follow-up on Au33-Lithium33 (Heberto Gold extents)
Gold exploration follow-up is also studied on Au33-Heberto gold discovery and extents:
