02.02.2023 | 16:49 Uhr | Newsfile

Vancouver, February 2, 2023 - Lithium One Metals Inc. (TSXV: LONE) (FSE: H490) (the "Company" or "LONE") is pleased to announce it has entered into an option agreement (the "Option Agreement") to acquire an additional lithium property in the Red Lake Mining Division in northwest Ontario. The Pinto project is prospective for high-grade lithium and is located 15 km south of Green Technology Metals' McCombe lithium deposit. The new property adds 2,700 ha to LONE's portfolio of lithium properties in Northwest Ontario for a total of 25,950 ha. The Company also holds an interest in 6,500 ha of lithium properties in James Bay, Quebec.

Acquisition Highlights

  • The Pinto Lithium Property. The Pinto property is located approximately 15 km south of the Root Project, owned by Green Technology Metals who recently announced a 24,000 m drill program on their 2Mt McCombe lithium deposit averaging 1.3% Li2O.
  • Prospective Geology for Lithium Exploration. All seven properties in northwestern Ontario are located near geological subprovince boundaries and feature mapped pegmatites with peraluminous S-type fertile granites. These terrane boundaries are deep seated sutures that act as conduits for fertile peraluminous granites, and lithium projects in Ontario are overwhelmingly located within 20 km of a terrane boundary.
  • Planned Work Programs. In Spring 2023, the Company will commence an exploration campaign, with the initial focus on prospecting, mapping, and sampling pegmatites to generate drill targets.

Dominic Verdejo, Chief Executive Officer of the Company commented, "Pinto is the latest addition to our carefully selected portfolio of lithium projects, which together comprises an extensive land position in Canada's rapidly growing lithium districts. Each project has been chosen for high levels of prospectivity and also proximity to existing discoveries and deposits. Going forward, we will utilize our strengths as multi-project explorers and roll out work programs across our portfolio, with the first activity commencing this Spring."

Pinto Lithium Property

The Pinto Lithium property is comprised of seven multi-cell mining claims located 70 km north of Sioux Lookout, Ontario, with good highway and logging road access. The property is underlain by an S-type peraluminous fertile parental granite in contact with metasedimentary rocks, which is an ideal environment for pegmatite formation. The Pinto property is 14 km south of the terrane boundary between the Uchi and English River subprovinces, and 15 km south of the Root Lithium Project which has a resource of 2 Mt at 1.3 Li2O%.
