Vital Battery Metals Commences Schofield Lithium Work Program in Northwestern Ontario - Seite 2

Adrian Lamoureux, Vital’s Chief Executive Officer and President, comments, “We are looking forward to sampling and mapping the numerous pegmatite outcrops on the Schofield Project during the Program. Once complete, Vital will have a key understanding of the Project’s geology and the potential of lithium bearing pegmatites.”

The Project is located within the Quetico Subprovince and contains a variety of evolved S-type granitoids and pegmatites hosted by metamorphosed sediments (paragneisses) and metavolcanics. The Quetico Subprovince is host to several pegmatite swarms such as Georgia Lake, Lowther and Wisa Lake. The pegmatites in the Quetico Subprovince are hosted by medium-grade unmigmatized metawacke with subordinate interbedded metapelite (e.g., spodumene-subtype Wisa Lake pegmatite and albite spodumene-type Georgia Lake pegmatites) and by their parent granite (e.g. petalite-subtype MNW pegmatite and lepidolite-subtype Lowther Township pegmatite) (Pye 1965; Breaks, Selway and Tindle 2003a, 2003b).
