both regions being highly prospective for lithium and showing encouraging geology, ACME is taking the steps to be at the forefront of lithium exploration in central Canada. In northeastern Saskatchewan, ACME has just completed a summer exploration program in partnership with AXIOM Exploration Group. The summer exploration program consisted of 1,166 line-km of helicopter borne tri-axial gradiometer magnetics, radiometrics, and LiDAR as well as prospecting for additional drill targets which included 336 rock samples collected for geochemical analysis. Samples have since been sent to SGS Canada Inc. for testing with results expected in Q4 2023. The exploration program expanded on 22 2023-2024 Northern Prospector

ACME Lithium is made up of a team of experience professionals who have successfully built and financed resource companies around the world. Along with holding its two projects in central Canada, ACME holds two mining project areas in one of the most exciting mining jurisdictions in the world: Esmeralda County, Nevada. In the epicentre of lithium brine development and production, Clayton Valley, ACME has just completed a successful pumping test at its lithium brine project as part of a Phase 2 exploration program. This successful 2023 campaign is waiting on further results that could lead to a potential initial resource.
