92 Resources Corp. Discovers Lithium-bearing Pegmatite at the Pontax Property, Quebec
Vancouver, October 25, 2018 – 92 Resources Corp. (the “Company”) (TSX.V: NTY) (OTCQB: RGDCF) (FSE:
R9G2) is pleased to announce that the 2018 surface exploration at the Pontax Property has resulted in
the discovery of lithium-bearing pegmatite. The Pontax Property (the “Property”) is wholly owned by the
Company and is located in the James Bay Region of Quebec, proximal to the all-season James Bay Road
and powerline infrastructure. The Property is also situated approximately 90 km west of Nemaska
Lithium’s Whabouchi Project, which is currently advancing through the construction phase towards
production.
The 2018 surface exploration at the Pontax Property consisted of reconnaissance-scale prospecting and
rock sampling over an approximate one (1) week period. The program targeted areas of interest identified
through historic work, satellite imagery review, and airborne geophysics with the primary objective to
discover lithium-bearing pegmatite occurrences of significance.
The Company is now pleased to report that the field program was highly successful and has resulted in
the discovery of a new lithium-bearing pegmatite occurrence on the Property (claim Block C). Two grab
samples (129364 and 129366) of the pegmatite returned assays of 0.94% Li2O and 520 ppm Ta2O5, and
0.72% Li2O and 87 ppm Ta2O5, respectively. Spodumene is indicated to be the primary lithium-bearing
mineral present based on other occurrences in the area.
Surface exploration on Block C of the Property was limited to a single ground traverse with the mineralized
samples separated by approximately 0.6 km. The outcrop where sample 129364 (0.94% Li2O and 520 ppm
Ta2O5) was collected has estimated dimensions of 40 m x 100 m; however, satellite imagery suggests
several outcrop occurrences are present along trend towards sample 129366 (0.72% Li2O), which may
indicate a larger, more continuous body is present under a thin veil of overburden. Further highlighting
the potential of the discovery is another grab sample of outcrop assaying 631 ppm Ta2O5, with associated
anomalous lithium (0.02% Li2O), which was collected a further 1.3 km along strike to the northeast. Due
to the limited length of the field program, further constrained by regional forest fires which prevented
access over several areas of the Property, no follow-up ground work has been completed. A map outlining
the sample locations is presented below.
Map of Discovery Area
Company President and CEO Adrian Lamoureux comments: “the Pontax Property is a grassroots lithium
exploration project in which acquisition was predicated on the potential to host lithium occurrences of
interest, and is based on the Property’s geologic setting as well as the known presence of spodumene-
bearing pegmatite along trend. The discovery this summer of lithium-bearing pegmatite with strong
associated tantalum, situated wholly on the Property, is very exciting and represents a solid target for
focused exploration moving forward. We continue to be encouraged by the prospects of the Pontax
Property and look forward to advancing this discovery”.
In addition to the lithium exploration, an initial reconnaissance-scale prospecting of gold targets,
generated from the recently completed heliborne high-resolution magnetic survey, was also carried out
during the program. Assay results ranged from nill to 141 ppb Au with the peak assay returned from a
gossanous wacke rock type. Several areas of the Property, as well as geophysical targets, remain to be
assessed.
The exploration program was carried out by Dahrouge Geological Consulting Ltd, with field operations
managed out of Quebec. All samples collected were sent to laboratories at SGS Canada Inc. (Lakefield) for
lithium analysis by sodium peroxide fusion with ICP-AES finish (package GE ICP91A), as well as for 37 -
multi-element analysis, including tantalum, by sodium peroxide fusion with ICP-MS finish (package GE
IC90M). All samples were also analyzed for gold by fire assay (package GE FAA313).
