Peloton Minerals Corporation (CSE: PMC) (OTCQB: PMCCF) is pleased to announce that it has staked and filed for recording an additional 90 mineral claims at its 100% owned North Elko Lithium Project located in north-eastern Nevada and immediately adjacent to property owned by Surge Battery Metals Inc. which has discovered a significant lithium deposit beside NELP. The surface data collection portion of a tTEM geophysical survey was also completed in December 2024.
The new claims are primarily located under the south-west (SW) portion of the NELP claim block and were staked following completion of extensive surface exploration work in 2024 which included a property-wide soil geochemistry survey, detailed geologic mapping, and X-Ray Diffraction analysis of over 400 samples that determined NELP was situated in a paleolake (historic lake) environment similar to neighboring Surge. The new claims are tied onto Peloton’s SW claim boundary and also to claims registered to Grid Battery Metals Inc. to the west. An updated map of the Peloton ground position is attached herein which also shows claim boundaries reported by Surge. Additionally, Peloton has discontinued certain claims that were no longer considered prospective, bringing the Company’s current total to 442 claims or approximately 37 square kilometers.
The surface data collection portion for a tTEM geophysical survey was completed by BGC Engineering of Calgary, Alberta, an international consulting firm that provides professional services in applied earth sciences. Data was collected over 37 line-kilometers and the data is now being processed for interpretation. The tTEM geophysical technique was used successfully by neighboring Surge to help map the depth and width of potential underlying lithium bearing clay layers.
Upon receipt of the geophysical report expected in February, the Company will finalize priority drilling targets and complete any drill permit amendments or applications necessary for an optimum maiden drilling program in 2025.
Mr. Edward (Ted) Ellwood, President and CEO commented, “Completing the geophysics successfully before the snow came was essential in enabling proper planning of the 2025 drilling program. We look forward to reviewing the interpretations after processing and gaining further insight into the underlying potential of the property.”
