DIOS acquires Lac LeCaron lithium project, James Bay, Quebec

 Montreal, Quebec, Canada – Management of Dios Exploration Inc. is very pleased to report Dios acquired Lac LeCaron lithium project within James Bay prolific lithium region of central Quebec, Canada.  It totals some 57 claims for 3000 hectares (30 sq.kilometers) north of LeCaron Lake, about 15 km north-northeast of Eastmain-1 powerhouse and facilities. It is located within LaGrande geological subprovince, 15km from Opinaca subprovince boundary.Pegmatite pockets and dykes within pegmatitic pluton

Wholly-owned Lac LeCaron lithium claims cover a 12km-long prospective eastwest section hosting a pegmatitic pluton (granite/granodiorite) with pegmatite pockets and dykes (5-30%) at the margins of a northeast meta-sedimentary & volcanic rock band.

Lithium metal anomalous signature occurs in two different secondary environments

LeCaron lithium claims occur along a cluster of lithium metal lake sediment anomalies (Li values between 8 and 10.5 ppm in this secondary environment) combined with anomalous proprietary Dios’ sampled glacial tills of 27.4, 27.9 & 29.5 ppm Li in heavy mineral fraction.  Other anomalous critical elements (such as cesium over 2ppm, up to 5ppm) were observed in lake sediments.

Magnetic features targeted

The claims are also located in the vicinities of several magnetic eastwest & west-northwest features cutting through the general NE-SW magnetic trend.

Geochemical signature is comparable to Pivert-Rose deposit and Pontax-Lithium prospect.  Pontax-Lithium (lithium-tantalum-bearing pegmatite dikes) was discovered and drilled in the scope of former joint Dios/Sirios Resources exploration project under supervision of Dios’ VP Harold Desbiens M.Sc. P.Geo & 43-101 QP, who prepared this release.

 

ERIC LEMIEUX, MINING & EXPLORATION ANALYSIS

Dios Exploration Inc. reported on February 16, 2023 that it has acquired the Lac LeCaron  lithium project within Eeyou Istchee James Bay prolific lithium region of central Québec.  The new acreage totals some 57 claims for 3000ha north of LeCaron Lake, ~12 km NNE of  Eastmain-1 powerhouse and facilities. It is located within LaGrande geological subprovince, 15km  from Opinaca subprovince boundary.The Lac LeCaron acreage is located north of Dios’ Lithium33  and Au33 properties and Critical Elements Lithium Corp. (CRE-V) property hosting advanced  Pivert-Rose lithium and tantalum deposit (https://www.cecorp.ca/en/) and further south the Nemaska lithium deposit (Wabouchi) located near Nemiscau. Sayona’s Moblan project is located  further south on the Route du Nord (see: https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/sayona-mining-limited sya-asx-otcsyaxf-reports-new-lithium-lemieux/).  

Potentially well located: The LeCaron lithium claims occur along a cluster of lithium metal lake  sediment anomalies (Li values between 8 and 10.5 ppm in the James Bay secondary environment)  combined with anomalous proprietary Dios’ sampled glacial tills of 27.4, 27.9 & 29.5 ppm Li in  heavy mineral fraction. Other anomalous critical elements (such as cesium over 2ppm, up to 5ppm)  were also observed in lake sediments.  

The 100%-owned Lac LeCaron lithium claims cover a 12km-long prospective E-W section hosting  a pegmatitic pluton (granite/granodiorite) with pegmatite pockets and dykes (5-30%) at the margins  of a NE meta-sedimentary and volcanic rock belt.  

The claims are also located in the vicinities of several magnetic E-W and WNW magnetitic features  cutting through the general NE-SW magnetic trend.
