Williamson is a geologist with 20+ years' experience and a M.Sc. in Structural Geology; his past work includes 3D litho-structural modelling at Red Lake, Matagami and other districts, and roles that contributed to the confirmation and expansion of the Nisk copper-nickel deposit and discovery of the polymetallic Lion zone (2019–2024).
The company said Williamson will lead 3D modelling and drill targeting across its 100 kilometer Nemaska belt land position, with a winter drill program on the Rose West lithium discovery expected to commence shortly after freeze-up.
Critical Elements (OTCQX:CRECF) reported 2025 summer exploration results on its 100%‑owned Nemaska Belt properties in Eeyou Istchee, Québec, with selective rock grab highs including 5.70% Cu, 0.82% Ni, 0.17% Co, 0.39 g/t Pt, 2.0 g/t Pd, 14.8 g/t Au, > 100 g/t Ag and up to 2.10% Li2O. The program collected 1,091 rock samples (452 assays pending) guided by VTEM conductors and high‑resolution magnetics; mineralization is sulfide‑dominated (pyrrhotite/pyrite with chalcopyrite/pentlandite). The company plans winter drilling to test targets and will continue expansion drilling near the Rose West lithium discovery within 10 km of the Rose project.
