Canada and Lithium
Just look at 92 Resources (TSX.V: NTY). Its share price was a star performer last week (up over 175% at
one point) on very heavy volume. Speculators were fired-up about some very high-grade, lithium-rich rocks
that the company had found in Canada’s Northwest Territories (NWT).
The news came more as a vote of confidence for the company’s Hidden Lake project, rather than a
complete shock. After all, the northern Canadian property is situated at the heart of an old lithium mining
camp from a bygone era — one that’s not far from Yellowknife. (This unheralded rare earth metal was
briefly mined for its use in nuclear power plants in the 1950s.)
Furthermore, Hidden Lake is known for being a geologically-fertile environment for finding richly-
mineralized hard rock sources of lithium. This helps explain why the company found a handful of grab
samples (rocks at surface) that have assayed as high as 3.06% lithium oxide, and collectively average
2.54%.
These results compare very favourably with the first batch of grab sample results announced by Canada’s
most successful lithium explorer/developer — Nemaska Lithium. Long before Nemaska proved-up its CDN
$1.9 billion Whabouchi lithium deposit in northern Quebec, it announced 9 grab samples averaging 2.88%
lithium oxide.
