    About Maple Gold

    Maple Gold Mines Ltd. is a Canadian advanced exploration company focused on advancing the district-scale Douay and Joutel gold projects located in Québec’s prolific Abitibi Greenstone Gold Belt. The projects benefit from exceptional infrastructure access and boast ~400 km2 of highly prospective ground including an established gold mineral resource at Douay with significant expansion potential as well as the past-producing Telbel and Eagle West mines at Joutel. In addition, the Company holds an exclusive option to acquire 100% of the Eagle Mine Property, a key part of the historical Joutel mining complex.

    The district-scale property package also hosts a significant number of regional exploration targets along a 55-km strike length of the Casa Berardi Deformation Zone that have yet to be tested through drilling, making the project ripe for new gold and polymetallic discoveries. The Company is currently focused on carrying out exploration and drill programs to grow mineral resources and make new discoveries to establish an exciting new gold district in the heart of the Abitibi.

    Refer to the full report for the price target, fundamental analysis, and rating.

    Key priorities for 2024 and 2025. Aurania appears to be making significant progress on key 2024 and 2025 priorities that were highlighted by Dr. Keith Barron, CEO and Director, during the company’s annual general meeting in June. These include: 1) exploration at the Lost Cities project in Ecuador, 2) advancing the company’s application for an exploration license in the Brittany Peninsula of northwestern France, 3) advancing joint venture and strategic partnership discussions, and 4) expanding community access agreements and community projects in Ecuador.

    Exploration program. While Aurania’s exploration program is flexible, the company intends to complete an induced polarization (IP) geophysical survey this year at the Kuri-Yawi epithermal gold target followed by a drill program that will likely commence in the first quarter of 2025. An Anaconda mapping program has been completed in the southern part of Aurania’s Awacha porphyry copper target area and exploration teams are wrapping up a mapping program in the northern portion of the property with the goal of preparing it for drilling in the future. Fieldwork is also expected to continue at Crunchy Hill during the third quarter.

    Century Lithium Corp. (CYDVF) – Getting Close to Producing Battery Grade Lithium On-Site


    Wednesday, September 04, 2024

    Mark Reichman, Managing Director, Equity Research Analyst, Natural Resources, Noble Capital Markets, Inc.

    Lithium carbonate production at the pilot plant. Century Lithium successfully added a lithium carbonate stage at the company’s lithium extraction facility which is part of the company’s Angel Island Mine project. Previously, concentrated lithium solutions from the pilot plant were treated by Saltworks Inc. at their facility in Richmond, British Columbia to produce samples of battery grade lithium carbonate. Century Lithium is now able to do this at the pilot plant and demonstrate it has an end-to-end process to produce lithium carbonate.

    Assay results. Century Lithium released assay results from the first lithium carbonate produced at the newly commissioned lithium carbonate stage at the company’s lithium extraction facility. Assays received for the initial five individual lots of lithium carbonate produced indicated purity of the lithium carbonate ranging from 98.2% to 99.2%. While lithium carbonate greater than 99.5% purity is typically considered battery grade, the company has identified steps to improve the purity level.

    Release – Century Lithium Produces Lithium Carbonate Onsite At Pilot Plant

    Research News and Market Data on CYDVF

    August 6, 2024 – Vancouver, Canada – Century Lithium Corp. (TSXV: LCE) (OTCQX: CYDVF) (Frankfurt: C1Z) (Century Lithium or the Company) is pleased to report the successful addition of a lithium carbonate stage at the Company’s Lithium Extraction Facility (Pilot Plant) in Amargosa Valley, Nevada, USA, part of the Company’s 100%-owned Angel Island Mine (the Project). Prior to this addition, concentrated lithium solutions from the Pilot Plant were treated by Saltworks Inc. at their facility in Richmond B.C. where samples of battery quality lithium carbonate were produced. During the first days of startup of the lithium carbonate stage, Century’s team at the Pilot Plant successfully treated 200 liters of concentrated lithium solution and produced 20 kg of high-grade lithium carbonate onsite.       

    “At this point in time, the ability to make lithium carbonate at our Pilot Plant is an important step forward, in line with recommendations from our recently completed Feasibility Study” commented President and CEO Bill Willoughby. “The drop in lithium prices over the last year has taken a toll on the share price of all lithium companies. Despite the downturn, domestic production is still key to the security of supply in the U.S. While it is becoming well known that a vast amount of lithium is contained within the claystone deposits of Nevada, the benefit in unlocking these resources is the ability to produce a battery quality lithium product onsite and thereby reducing or eliminating the need for downstream processing.”

    The Company continues work at the Pilot Plant, utilizing the Company’s patent-pending process for chloride leaching combined with Direct Lithium Extraction (DLE) to generate data as the Company works to identify further technological breakthroughs to make the extraction of lithium from clay more economic. Adding the lithium carbonate stage at the Pilot Plant is one of the recommendations made in the Feasibility Study, not only to further demonstrate that battery quality lithium carbonate can be made, but to better understand and minimize the recycle streams from the DLE stage through to final product in the process. With the assistance of engineers from Hargrove Engineers and Constructors, Century’s team configured equipment to run 40-liter batches of concentrated lithium solution though precipitation, washing and drying steps. Final assays on the lithium carbonate are pending.
