First Energy Metals Ltd. (CSE: FE) (OTCQB: FEMFF) (WKN: A2JC89) is pleased to announce it has entered into an agreement to acquire two properties covering approximately 2,480 hectares approximately 175 kilometers north of Red Lake, Ontario.

The newly acquired land package, named the North Spirit Lithium Project, contain two prospective claim groups located directly adjacent to Frontier Lithium’s Electric Avenue projects that include the PAK and SPARK lithium pegmatite deposits, a premium lithium jurisdiction.

First Energy’s project is within a region that plays host to a crustal scale structure that is traceable for over 400km from Ontario through Manitoba which is associated with the emplacement of peraluminous fertile granites and spodumene-rich lithium bearing pegmatites. The PAK Lithium pegmatite occurrence was originally discovered in the early 1990’s by the Ontario Geologic Survey and work in the surrounding area continues to uncover additional Lithium bearing pegmatite occurrences.

The SPARK pegmatite was just recently discovered in 2018 and along with the PAK and newer discoveries since then, the area was deemed the ‘Electric Avenue’ as it contains some of North America’s highest-grade lithium-bearing pegmatites. Since discovery, Frontier has continually reported positve drill results for the SPARK pegmatite and, at present, the company reports resources of 14.4 MT of 1.40% Li2O Indicated and 18.1 MT of 1.37% Li2O in the Inferred category for SPARK.
