First Lithium Minerals (CSE: FLM) this morning is reporting that it has substantially expanded its Lidstone exploration project in Ontario. The expansion follows a Recommendations For Exploration report issued by the Ontario Geological Survey, which highlighted the Witchwood and Morden Lake areas, which are found in the immediate area of the Lidstone project.
The report, which is based on the Resident Geologist Program, highlighted the potential for lithium-cesium-tantalum pegmatite potential in the immediate region. The recommendation is said to be based on field work and sampling conducted in the area last year by the Ontario Geological Survey, as well as historical data for the region. Pegmatite samples collected at surface are said to have been coarse muscovite with possible apatite.

“While we have long recognized the Lidstone project area as an attractive exploration target for lithium and potentially copper, the recent Ontario Geological Survey report on recommendations for exploration in the Lidstone project area solidified our belief and made our project even more exciting,” commented CEO Rob Saltsman.

The expanded project comes as a result of staking, with First Lithium having staked an additional 547 claims in the region, expanding the project area by 11,105 hectares to a total size of 12,830 hectares. The new claims are adjacent to the existing Lidstone claims, found in the Witchwood and Morden Lake areas, approximately 120 kilometres northeast of Armstrong, Ontario in the Thunder Bay Mining Division.
Exploration for 2024 is set to include geologic mapping, geophysical and geochemical surveys, and reconnaissance exploration.
