About the PAK Lithium Project

The PAK Lithium Project encompasses 26,774 hectares at the south end of Ontario’s Electric Avenue, which is the largest land package hosting lithium bearing pegmatites in Ontario. The Project covers 65km of Avenue length and remains largely unexplored; however, since 2013 the company has delineated two premium spodumene bearing lithium deposits located 2.3 km from each other at the southwestern end of the project. Recently, Frontier confirmed the presence of spodumene with the Pennock Lake pegmatite occurrence a further 30km along Frontier’s PAK Lithium Project.

The PAK deposit has a mineral reserve in proven and probable category of 5.77 MT averaging 2.06% Li₂O. The deposit hosts a rare technical/ceramic grade spodumene with low inherent iron (below 0.1% Fe₂O₃). The “2019 Discovery of the year award” winning Spark Deposit has a mineral resource estimate of 3.2 MT averaging 1.59% Li₂O in indicated and 12.2 MT averaging 1.36% Li₂O in inferred category, as per NI 43-101 Technical Report, “PAK prefeasibility study, Spark resource estimation” by WSP Canada Inc. and Nordmin Engineering Ltd., updated on March 23, 2020.
