The Route Du Nord project appears to be situated within a prospective structural corridor for lithium, which is on trend with the well documented regional discovery known as the Whabouchi Deposit1. The structural corridor contains high levels of lithium in both till and lake sediment samples with respect to the surrounding areas. Elements such as beryllium, cesium, rubidium, and tungsten are also found elevated within the Valiquette Pluton making it a fertile source for the fractionation of LCT pegmatites. The Valiquette Pluton lies within Discovery’s
“The Whabouchi Deposit1 occurs within a regional thrust fault that extends and terminates in the Valiquette Pluton,” notes
