Key Points
- Brunswick Exploration Inc., a royalty partner of Globex Mining Enterprises Inc., reported significant lithium oxide (Li2O) intersections on Globex’s Lac Escale (Mirage project) royalty claims in Quebec’s Eeyou Istchee James Bay region. Notable intersections include up to 1.55% Li2O over 93.45 meters and 1.05% Li2O over 34.05 meters in the Central Zone of the Lac Escale.
- The winter drilling program highlighted various intersections across multiple drill holes, indicating promising lithium concentrations. Drill core samples were collected under strict supervision, transported, logged, photographed, and split before sampling. Quality assurance and quality control (QA/QC) measures were rigorously implemented, including the insertion of blanks and certified reference materials for lithium every 20 samples.
- The scientific and technical information in Brunswick’s press release was reviewed and approved by Mr. Simon T. Hebert, VP Development for Brunswick Exploration, and Mr. Jack Stoch, President and CEO of Globex, who served as the Qualified Person (Q.P.) under National Instrument 43-101. The press release emphasizes adherence to industry standards and regulatory requirements in reporting drilling results.

QA/QC
As per Brunswick, all drill core samples were collected under the supervision of BRW employees and contractors. The drill core was transported by helicopter and by truck from the drill platform to the core logging facility in Val-d’Or. Each core was then logged, photographed, tagged, and split by diamond saw before being sampled. All pegmatite intervals were sampled at approximately 1-meter intervals to ensure representativity. Samples were bagged; duplicated on one-fourth core splits, blanks and certified reference materials for lithium were inserted every 20 samples. Samples were bagged and groups of samples were placed in larger bags, sealed with numbered tags, in order to maintain a chain of custody. The sample bags were transported from the BRW contractor facility to the ALS laboratory in Val-d’Or. All sample preparation and analytical work was performed by ALS by ICP-AES according to the ALS method ME-MS89L. All results passed the QA/QC screening at the lab and all inserted standard and blanks returned results that were within acceptable limits. All reported drill intersections are calculated based on a lower cut-off grade of 0.3% Li2O, with maximum internal dilution of 5 meters. Host basalts adjacent to the dykes may grade up to 0.3% Li2O but were excluded from the reported intersections.
