from the town of Snow Lake. The property consists of 16 claims

totaling 3,603 hectares. Following on from an extensive diamond drilling program in the winter of 2018-19, the main focus in late 2019 and 2020 was a program of mineralogical characterization and preliminary beneficiation test on material from Dyke 1 on the Zoro Property. This dyke is one of 13 lithium-bearing pegmatite dykes identified on the property to date. A portion of Dyke 1 hosts an NI 43-101

magnetic separation. These results confirm the quality of the resources defined to date and provide encouragement for further work to enlarge the resource base on the project lands and potentially elsewhere in the region. A key to the further advancement of the project is its location proximal to the town of Snow Lake with excellent
