[{"type":"text","content":" VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Aug. 29, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Foremost Lithium Resource & Technology Ltd. (NASDAQ: FMST) (CSE: FAT) (“Foremost Lithium”, “Foremost” or the “Company”), a North American hard-rock lithium exploration company, has undertaken an extensive summer exploration program on its “Lithium Lane Properties”, near the historic mining center of Snow Lake, Manitoba. Fig. 1 Lithium Lane Claim Map Dahrouge Geological Consulting Ltd. (“DGC”), is conducting a large-scale surface exploration program on Foremost’s four Lithium Lane properties for Lithium Cesium Tantalum (“LCT”) pegmatites which includes: Targeted geochemical sampling and geological mapping Prospecting and rock sampling over priority target areas MMI-soil or till sampling of target areas lacking outcrop Detailed geological mapping in highly prospective zones, and data captured using ESRI Field Maps. DGC has applied its established targeting methodology to Foremost’s extensive geological database, integrating historical and recent exploration records to highlight high-priority targets. The program's focus includes properties that are either under-explored or have good potential for discovering additional LCT pegmatites. Jason Barnard, Foremost President, and CEO comments “Preliminary assessment on our Lithium Lane Properties provided from Dahrouge are encouraging for discovery of further LCT pegmatites. The properties are certainly not short on potential targets, and we look forward for results of this exploration program to help delineate drill targets on all our Lithium Lane Properties”. Peg North Property The Peg North Project consists of 28 contiguous claims, totaling 16,697 acres/6,757 hectares. Peg North hosts significant potential for lithium mineralization, given its proximity to the Wekusko Pegmatite Fields and its position along strike of the Thompson Brothers Lithium Deposit and the Crowduck Bay Fault (“CBF”). Spodumene-bearing LCT pegmatite has been historically associated with the CBF. High-resolution magnetic data acquired and processed by EarthEx Geophysical Solutions has identified a substantial sinistral fault on the eastern side of the property, accompanied by a magnetically depleted zone at its southern boundary. Notably, this fault has not been documented in regional government mapping. The structure attains a width of approximat...
