Patriot Files NI 43-101 Technical Report on the Shaakichiuwaanaan Mineral Resource Estimate, Quebec, Canada
Rhea-AI Summary
Patriot Battery Metals (OTCQX:PMETF) has filed a NI 43-101 Technical Report for its Shaakichiuwaanaan Project in Quebec's James Bay Region. The report, prepared by independent consultants BBA Inc. and Primero Group Americas Inc., covers the updated Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE) for the CV5 and CV13 LCT Pegmatites, including the Rigel and Vega caesium zones.
The company clarified two significant MRE updates in 2025: A May update focused on CV5 and CV13 spodumene pegmatites, and a July update revealing the world's largest known pollucite-hosted caesium pegmatite Mineral Resource at the Rigel and Vega zones. While the May update wasn't considered a "material change," the July discovery triggered the requirement for this Technical Report filing.

Clarification Regarding the Mineral Resource Estimate Updates in 2025
Since the beginning of the 2025, the Company has disclosed two updates of the Mineral Resource Estimate ("MRE") at the Property, the results of which are included in the Technical Report. The Company would like to provide the following clarifications regarding these updates.
The first update, announced on May 12, 2025, in the press release titled "Significant Mineral Resource Upgrade at Shaakichiuwaanaan Lithium Project to Underpin Impending Feasibility Study" (the "May 12 PR"), disclosed an updated Consolidated MRE at the Property focused on the CV5 and CV13 spodumene pegmatites. While the May 12 PR constituted material information warranting timely disclosure, a careful assessment by the Company of its impact on operational planning, economic outlook, and strategic direction led management to conclude that it did not constitute a "material change" in respect of the Company for Canadian securities law purposes. While the resource category tonnes upgrade from inferred to the indicated category were important, they did not alter the Project's execution timeline, capital allocation priorities, or underlying technical assumptions to that already described in the public domain. As a result, the Company determined that it was not required to file an updated technical report under NI 43-101 in connection with the May 12 PR.
Conversely, the Company considers the updates contained in its press release dated July 20, 2025, titled "World's Largest Pollucite-Hosted Caesium Pegmatite Mineral Resource Defined at Shaakichiuwaanaan" (the "July 20 PR"), to be material given that the Company disclosed for the first time a maiden caesium resource at the Rigel and
