[{"type":"text","content":" Block “C” pegmatite has now been traced for at least 1.6 km of strike length, which is located about 5 km to the south of the world class Corvette lithium deposit 443 soil samples were collected and sent to the lab for analysis on the MegaLi Block “C”, Lithium Grande 4 Block “A”, Block “D” and Block “E” VANCOUVER, British Columbia, July 24, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- SPOD LITHIUM CORP. (CSE: SPOD; OTCQB: SPODF), (the “Company” or “SPOD”) is pleased to announce the completion of a second phase field program on its MegaLi and Lithium Grande 4 properties composed of six claim blocks adjacent to the Patriot Battery Metals Inc.’s (“Patriot”) Corvette project located in the James Bay area, Quebec, Canada. Along with its Quebec projects, SPOD is also exploring its promising projects in the province of Ontario. Mathieu Couillard, SPOD’s CEO commented, “We are delighted with the outcome of our 2024 program. We have proven the presence of multiple pegmatites on our property package as well as the continuity of our 2023 lithium results. We also now know that the geology of blocks “A”, “B” and “D” is similar to the Corvette trend where pegmatites are hosted in amphibolite. Additionally, the northern contact of Block “C”, where we have identified a large pegmatite hosting lithium anomaly, is an area of particular interest given its proximity with Patriot’s CV5 deposit. Future exploration including mechanical stripping and drilling will be planned once results from soils samples and channel samples have been received.” Summer program over the pegmatites A total of 443 soil samples have been collected by the ExploLogik team, which provides exploration services to the Company, aimed at three objectives: identification of spodumene bearing phase inside the known MegaLi project Block “C” pegmatite, testing the ground about 3km along strike from the initial target, and evaluating the lithium potential of Block “A”, Block “D”, Block “E” on the Lithium Grande 4 project. On Block “C” (MegaLi project), 316 soil samples were collected over the pegmatite trend, covering a surface of about 1.7 km by 4.8 km. For reference, Patriot’s CV5 spodumene deposit is located about 5 km north of the Block “C” pegmatite, following a parallel structural trend. Observations done so far on Block “C” have indicated that the crystallization texture and struc...
