properties

The Shire project consist of 105 claims for 56 km2.

highlights

• Located in a very favorable zone for lithium pegmatites: 1) at the boundary between two geological subprovinces 2) within a swarm of favorable S-type granites 3) with abundant amphibolites as very favorable hosts for lithium deposits.
• Favorable tourmaline-beryl pegmatites previously found on the project not analyzed for lithium.
• Little previous exploration for lithium.
• Strong base metals (Zn-Cu-Au-Ag VMS) potential; O’Connor massive sulfide showing that returned up to 7.53% Zn (outcrop grabs) and 4.85 % Zn over 1.17 m (channels).
• Regional, 15 km long, exhalative horizon favorable for Zn-Cu-Ag-Au massive sulfides identified; strong, continuous anomalies on electromagnetic (EM) geophysics.
• Potential for Ni-Cu-Co mineralization, with ultramafics rocks having high MgO content.
• No previous drilling on the project.
