FCM-Report-The-Big-Four-How-we’re-moving-towards-drilling.pdf

You may have noticed that we put a news release out last week. It was a pretty wide-spanning one, after all.
 
Indeed, we provided an update on our activities across almost all of our projects, including…
 
…Zigzag, where reconnaissance has returned lithium and tantalum grades of up to 1% and 198ppm respectively;
 
…Esa, where we’re planning an extensive soil sampling campaign to build on last year’s success, with assay results pending;
 
…Sunbeam, where we’ve completed historic data and core reviews and rediscovered a 3m-wide quartz vein; and
 
…North Hemlo, where we’ve launched into a new round of exploration focused on the Dead Otter trend.

Now, it’s obviously great to share that we’ve kicked off the 2023 field season at such a great pace. And I’m really proud on the progress our teams our making on the ground.

But the real point I wanted to zone in on today is that the work also puts us well on our way to achieving our stated goal for the current field season….
 
To bring these four key projects to drill ready status and – permits notwithstanding – to drill at least one of them.

This is, of course, ambitious. But it’s also essential.
 
After all, we’re in this game to make mineral discoveries. That’s how you create major long-term value for your shareholders.
 
However, you can’t make a discovery without getting the drill bit turning. That’s just a fact.
 
The good news is, I’m confident we can do it.
 
Not only has work got off to a great start this year…
 
But the impressive rate at which we were able to progress our projects last year has provided “proof of concept” for both our approach and the teams we use.
 
In other words: if we keep doing more of the same, then we are poised to continue advancing rapidly down the road to drill-ready status.
 
That’s why we’ve prepared this brand-new, exclusive report. See below. 

It offers a deep dive not just at the progress we’ve already made at Zigzag, Esa, Sunbeam, and North Hemlo…But it also looks at why we’re so excited about the projects in the first place and where we plan to focus next.
 
In the meantime, as always, if you have any questions about what we’re doing, please don’t hesitate to get in touch.
