Q Precious and Battery Metals Corp. (CSE:QMET) has provided an update on diamond drilling targeting at their La Corne South project near Val d'Or, Quebec. The company reports that previous drilling (hole 24LCS-01) revealed VMS-style mineralization with elevated copper, zinc, silver, and gold.
Further drilling is planned for early 2025, focusing on TDEM anomalies EMG-1 and EMG-2, which may be located within the same volcanic horizon. The geophysical surveys indicate a potential corridor of magnetic and electromagnetic anomalies spanning two kilometers, which remains open to the northwest.
The company has submitted 278 core samples from the first three holes to ALS laboratory in Val d'Or for analysis, including tests for 48 elements and precious metals. Quality control measures include blanks, standards, and duplicates inserted every 10 samples.
Q Precious and Battery Metals announces the resumption of diamond drilling at their La Corne South project near Val d'Or, Quebec for winter 2024-2025. Previous drilling results from hole 24LCS-01 showed significant VMS-style mineralization with:
- 1.8% copper equivalent over 6.1 metres, including 2.56% copper equivalent over 3.95 metres
- 0.83% copper equivalent over 25.45 metres total mineralized zone
The company plans to continue testing geophysical anomalies, with a primary target located 215m below surface. The exploration corridor extends over two kilometers and remains open to the northwest. Results from holes 24LCS-02 and 24LCS-03 are pending.
Q Precious and Battery Metals Corp. (CSE:QMET)(OTC:BTKRF) announces that its Lorrain claims are situated within the new hydrogen exploration area in Quebec's Ville-Marie region. The 11 claims, totaling 633 hectares, are located 2km north of Béarn and 5km east of Ville-Marie. The property, staked in 2020, contains geological features favorable for hydrogen exploration, including Cobalt Group sedimentary rocks, Nipissing mafic dykes, and sills that can act as impermeable barriers for hydrogen trapping. The area has seen increased interest following Quebec Innovative Materials Corp's discovery of elevated hydrogen gas in soil.
Q Precious & Battery Metals Corp. (CSE:QMET, OTC:BTKRF) announced significant results from its first drill hole at the La Corne South project in Val d'Or, Quebec. Hole 24LCS-01 revealed robust VMS-style mineralization with high-grade intercepts including:
- 4.2% copper, 4% zinc, 0.17 ppm gold, and 30.3 ppm silver over 0.55 meters
- 1.8% copper equivalent over 6.1 meters
- 0.83% copper equivalent over 25.45 meters
The company completed three drill holes totaling 426 meters, testing a 50-meter strike length of a TDEM conductor and magnetic high. Results from the other two holes are pending. QMET plans to drill 5-6 additional holes along a 2-kilometer corridor targeting strong TDEM conductors.
Q Precious and Battery Metals Corp. (CSE:QMET, OTC:BTKRF) has announced progress in its drilling program at the La Corne South project near Val d'Or, Quebec. The company has completed three drill holes totaling 426 metres, all intersecting disseminated to massive sulphide mineralization including copper and zinc minerals. These findings confirm the TDEM survey conductive bodies as sulphide mineralized targets.
Key highlights:
- Drill hole 24LCS-01 revealed significant mineralized bands 2-5 metres wide
- Hole 24LCS-02 showed disseminated sulphide mineralization with some semi-massive sulphide up to 2 metres width
- Hole 24LCS-03 intercepted semi-massive pyrrhotite and chalcopyrite over a 5-metre interval
The company plans to continue drilling to test other TDEM anomalies along a 2-kilometre corridor, with 7-9 drill holes planned. Core samples are being analyzed to verify metal content, including potential Cu-Zn-Ag-Au mineralization.
Q Precious and Battery Metals Corp. (CSE:QMET) has intersected volcanogenic massive sulphides in the first drill hole at its La Corne South project near Val d'Or, Quebec. Drill hole 24LCS-01, completed at 144 meters depth, revealed several mineralized bands 2-5 meters wide, containing pyrrhotite, chalcopyrite, and sphalerite. The company plans to test a 2-kilometer corridor with 7-9 drill holes averaging 120-150 meters depth. Core samples will be analyzed to verify metal content, including potential Cu-Zn-Ag-Au. QMET's geologic team is encouraged by these initial results, which support their VMS exploration model for the area.
Q Precious and Battery Metals Corp. (CSE:QMET) has commenced diamond drilling at its La Corne South project in Val d'Or, Quebec. This campaign targets a TDEM conductive anomaly and a magnetic high with historic intersections of copper, silver, zinc, and gold. The drilling involves 7-9 holes, each 120-150 meters deep, aimed at massive sulphide potential.
Explo-Logik Inc. will oversee drilling and core sampling. The results will guide future drilling plans. QMET holds a 100% interest in various Quebec properties, focusing on critical and precious metals, including La Corne South, McKenzie East Gold, Pontax Lithium, and Versant REE properties.
Q Precious and Battery Metals Corp. (CSE:QMET, OTC PINK:BTKRF, FRA:ONB) has mobilized a diamond drill for its La Corne South project north of Val d'Or, Quebec. The drilling will commence shortly, targeting a TDEM conductive anomaly and a magnetic high, both associated with significant historic copper, silver, zinc, and gold mineralization. The company, with the assistance of Explo-Logik Inc., will handle drill core logging and sampling at their Val d'Or facility. Recent geological findings indicate strong potential for Volcanogenic Massive Sulphide (VMS) mineralization in the area. QMET holds 100% interest in various mineral claims across Quebec, including the La Corne South VMS + Pegmatite Lithium Project, McKenzie East Gold property, and the newly acquired Pontax Lithium and Versant rare earth element properties. Dr. Mathieu Piché, OGQ, supervises the exploration programs.
Q Precious and Battery Metals Corp. (CSE:QMET) has begun constructing drill pads and access routes for its La Corne South project near Val d'Or, Quebec, targeting multi-element Volcanic Massive Sulphide (VMS) deposits and lithium-bearing pegmatite. The June 2024 drilling program will commence with 10 drill pads, including areas previously drilled by Falconbridge in 2004, which reported significant mineralization of copper, silver, zinc, and gold. Recent TDEM surveys by QMET indicate potential massive sulphide mineralization east of the 2004 drill sites. Additionally, the project aims to explore elevated lithium levels found in coarse-grained granite. Dr. Mathieu Piché oversees the exploration program, scheduled to begin immediately after the construction of the drill pads.
Q Precious and Battery Metals Corp (CSE:QMET) has contracted Explo-Logik Inc to provide geological services for their projects in Quebec, notably the La Corne South project near Val d'Or. Explo-Logik, known for managing mining exploration projects with specialized equipment, will collaborate with QMET's team to commence drilling operations after an initial project review. QMET's exploration programs, overseen by Dr. Mathieu Piché, target critical and precious metals, with interests in multiple Quebec properties including La Corne South, McKenzie East Gold, Pontax Lithium, and Versant rare earth elements.
