Bastion Minerals Ltd. provided a due diligence update subsequent to the recent optioning of the Pakwan East Lithium property in Canada. The property is located adjacent to properties hosting the high-grade PAK and Spark Lithium projects held by Frontier Lithium Inc. Review of government geological data has identified a series of mapped pegmatite clusters in the property, including two clusters measuring more than 1km2. Over 45 (forty five) pegmatite clusters were mapped within the project area, 27 (twenty seven) (10h) of which have been identified as a high priority.

Bastion will continue to review each target as part of its due diligence and is encouraged by these early results. These pegmatites suggest the granitoid complex is highly evolved and there is potential for pegmatites in the area to contain lithium. Similar pegmatites are mapped in other areas of the North Spirit Lake geological map sheet, outside of the Pakwan East properties.

However, the Pakwan East properties cover one of the major area of clusters. Host rocks are mapped as foliated porphyritic biotite trondhjemite, biotite-hornblende trondhjemite and granodiorite and biotite trondhjemite. Clusters are composed of quartz feldspar pegmatites and muscovite garnet pegmatites in government mapping.

The Frontier Lithium pegmatites are hosted in metasediments and metavolcanics within the Bear Head Fault Zone (BHFZ or Bear Head) along an important boundary between geological sub provinces. This is a major fault system with multiple outcropping pegmatite discoveries, and is a prime location for lithium pegmatites. Frontier Lithium is actively conducting regional exploration activities along the fault zone3.

The BHFZ is mapped on the North Spirit Lake geological map as the North Spirit Lake Fault, however this is the same as what Frontier Lithium refer to as the BHFZ.
