Cat Lake Mineral Project

QMC Quantum Minerals Corp News Release September 7, 2017 reported:

“Between 1953-1954, the Lithium Corporation of Canada Limited drilled 25 holes into the Irgon Dike and reported a

historical resource estimate of 1.2 million tons gr ading 1.51% Li20 over a strike length of 365 meters and to a depth of

213 meters (Northern Miner, Vol. 41, no.19, Aug. 4, 1955, p.3). This historical resource is documented in a 1956

Assessment Report by Bruce Ballantyne for the Lithium Corporation of Cana da Ltd. (Manitoba Assessment Report No.

94932). This historical estimate is believed to be based on reasonable assumptions and the company/QP has no reason

to contest the document’s relevance and reliability.”

The property lies within the east -trending Mayville-Cat-Eculid Greenstone Belt (“MCEGB”) located along the northern

contact of the Maskwa Lake Batholith. This northern greenstone belt has a similar structural geological setting as the

Bird River Greenstone Belt (“BRGB”) which is located along the s outhern contact of the same batholith, and is parallel

to and approximately 18km to the south of the MCEGB. The property is located 20km north of the Tanco Mine

Property. The BRGB hosts the world -class Tanco rare element -bearing pegmatite dike. The Tanco M ine went into

production in 1969 and produced tantalum, cesium and lithium concentrate. It was previously North America’s largest

and sole producer of spodumene (Li), tantalite (Ta) and pollucite (Cs).
