X-TERRA RESOURCES ACQUIRES CLAIMS EAST OF ADINA LITHIUM PROJECT
ROUYN-NORANDA, QC, June 8, 2022 /CNW Telbec/ - X-Terra Resources Inc. (TSXV: XTT) (FRANKFURT: XTR) ("X-Terra") is pleased to announce it has acquired another Lithium property immediately east of the Lithium Metal Tech Ltd Adina Lithium project located in James Bay, Québec. This is in addition the recently acquired claim blocks totalling over 10,000 hectares located in the James Bay region of northern Québec that are collectively known as the Triple Lithium Project (see press release dated June 2, 2022).
X-Terra received confirmation from the Ministère de l'Énergie et des ressources Naturelles du Québec (the "MERN") for 38 designated claims adjoining to the east the Lithium Metals Tech Adina project. The area covers approximately 2,018 hectares located about 60 kilometres south of the Trans-Taiga Highway.
The geological context of where these claims are located was recognized by provincial geological mapping as a contact between a volcanic unit to the south (Trieste Formation) and a tonalite and granodiorite intrusions (Joubert Suite). The Adina Lithium bearing pegmatites, found approximately 2.5 kilometres along strike to the west, is located very close to this contact. According to the Sigéom database, the Adina Lithium pegmatite system was discovered in 2014 during a regional mapping program by the MERN. At that specific location, the initial survey highlighted the indication of multiple dykes which are scattered over an area of about two square kilometres. The lithium mineralization is represented by spodumene, associated by varied accessory minerals such as tourmaline and apatite.
X-Terra has secured control of approximately three kilometres of the targeted contact. And upon further examination of high-resolution aerial imagery, the area presents numerous prospects for large pegmatite intrusions.
Michael Ferreira, President and Chief Executive Officer of X-Terra commented: "Adding another promising Lithium project to our property portfolio expands our diversification strategy and continues to add opportunities for our shareholders. We look forward to beginning our exploration on our newly acquired lithium properties in the coming weeks."
