Patriot Battery Metals (OTCQX: PMETF) has announced a groundbreaking discovery at its Shaakichiuwaanaan Project, confirming the world's largest pollucite-hosted caesium pegmatite deposit. The maiden Mineral Resource Estimate reveals impressive figures across two zones: Rigel Zone with 163,000t at 10.25% Cs2O, and Vega Zone with 530,000t at 2.61% Cs2O Indicated and 1,698,000t at 2.40% Cs2O Inferred.
The company's consolidated Mineral Resource Estimate now stands at 108.0 Mt Indicated at 1.40% Li2O, 0.11% Cs2O, 166 ppm Ta2O5, and 66 ppm Ga, plus 33.4 Mt Inferred at 1.33% Li2O, 0.21% Cs2O, 155 ppm Ta2O5, and 65 ppm Ga. The discovery is particularly significant as caesium is a rare, high-value critical mineral with potential applications in next-generation solar panel technology.
Patriot Battery Metals (OTCQX:PMETF) has initiated work programs to unlock tantalum as a high-value by-product at its Shaakichiuwaanaan Property in Quebec. The project ranks as a top-5 tantalum pegmatite globally, with an Indicated Resource of 108.0 Mt at 1.40% Li2O and 166 ppm Ta2O5, and Inferred Resource of 33.3 Mt at 1.33% Li2O and 156 ppm Ta2O5.
Initial test programs have successfully produced ~19% Ta2O5 tantalite concentrate. The company plans to incorporate tantalum recovery into its operations using conventional methods, following the completion of its lithium-only Feasibility Study in Q3 2025. High-grade drill intersections include up to 2,307 ppm Ta2O5, demonstrating significant potential for tantalum recovery as a by-product.
Patriot Battery Metals has reached significant milestones in the permitting process for its Shaakichiuwaanaan Lithium Project in Quebec. The company has formally initiated the Federal permitting process by submitting its Initial Project Description to the Impact Assessment Agency of Canada (IAAC), which will run parallel to the ongoing Provincial process. The project's Environmental and Social Impact Assessments (ESIA) are on track for submission in late 2025.
The Shaakichiuwaanaan Property contains a substantial resource with 80.1 Mt at 1.44% Li2O Indicated and 62.5 Mt at 1.31% Li2O Inferred. The CV5 Spodumene Pegmatite, which comprises most of the Mineral Resource Estimate, is accessible year-round and located just 14 km from a major hydroelectric powerline. The company has completed three years of environmental baseline data collection and community consultations to support the ESIA submissions.
Patriot Battery Metals (PMETF) has confirmed a significant cesium discovery at its Shaakichiuwaanaan Property in Quebec, with two distinct zones identified at the CV13 Pegmatite: the Vega Zone and Rigel Zone. The Vega Zone spans ~600m x 400m with thicknesses of 1-2m to >10m, while the Rigel Zone covers ~200m x 80m up to ~5m thick.
Key drill intercepts include:
- Vega Zone: 18.1m at 2.71% Cs2O (including 7.4m at 5.45%)
- Rigel Zone: 5.9m at 11.19% Cs2O (including 1.0m at 22.69%)
The discovery adds potential value to the existing lithium project, which has a Mineral Resource Estimate of 80.1 Mt at 1.44% Li2O Indicated and 62.5 Mt at 1.31% Li2O Inferred. The cesium mineralization could become a meaningful by-product to future lithium operations, given cesium's high value and rarity in global markets.
Patriot Battery Metals (TSX: PMET) has announced the immediate appointment of Frederic Mercier-Langevin as Chief Development / Operating Officer (CDO/COO). He will lead the development of the company's Shaakichiuwaanaan Project.

The appointment aims to strengthen the executive team's capabilities as they progress toward completing the Feasibility Study and ESIA for the Shaakichiuwaanaan Project. His extensive experience in commissioning and operations, particularly in large-scale mining in the North, coupled with his knowledge of Quebec conditions, positions him as a strategic addition to the company's leadership.
Patriot Battery Metals (TSX: PMET) has announced the discovery of a new spodumene pegmatite cluster, CV15, at its Shaakichiuwaanaan Property in Quebec. The discovery features multiple pegmatite outcrops over a 400m x 200m area, with outcrop sample assays of up to 2.11% Li2O.
The CV15 discovery extends the prospective 'Mickel Trend' to ~5.5 km in length, surpassing the CV5 Pegmatite (4.6 km). The property currently hosts a Mineral Resource Estimate of 80.1 Mt at 1.44% Li2O Indicated and 62.5 Mt at 1.31% Li2O Inferred.
Additional discoveries include a new LCT pegmatite outcrop ~525m from CV8 Spodumene Pegmatite with 2,282 ppm Ta2O5, and multiple mineralized boulders suggesting potential undiscovered spodumene pegmatites near the CV5 Deposit.
Patriot Battery Metals (TSX: PMET) has discovered a significant cesium mineralization zone at its CV13 Pegmatite in the Shaakichiuwaanaan Property, Quebec. The primary enrichment zone, coinciding with the high-grade lithium Vega Zone, spans approximately 600m x 400m and remains open.
Key drilling results include:
- 10.4m at 1.30% Cs2O (including 4.0m at 2.02% Cs2O) at CV5
- 10.6m at >1.00% Cs2O at CV13
- 17.1m at >1.00% Cs2O at CV13
- 10.5m at 9.58% Cs2O at CV12
The property currently holds a Mineral Resource Estimate of 80.1 Mt at 1.44% Li2O Indicated and 62.5 Mt at 1.31% Li2O Inferred. Pollucite, a rare cesium ore mineral, has been identified through XRD analysis and could potentially become a valuable by-product to future lithium operations.
