Niobium Potential at JSHG Properties

Mineral exploration company JSHG has completed an acquisition to secure full ownership of two Nemegosenda-based Niobium prospect properties, which it has named Prometheus and Vulcan.

Joshua Gold Resources Inc. (JSHG / OTC Pink Sheets) has secured full ownership of two niobium prospect properties near Lake Nemegosenda, in Northern Ontario. The properties, Prometheus and Vulcan, are in Collins and Chewett Townships, contiguous to claims owned by Sarissa Resources Ltd. patents ($SRSR). Plans include permit-pending exploratory drilling for later this summer.

Both properties are strong prospects for economic-grade niobium. Drilling took place on the properties in 1955 by Dominion Gulf, which produced impressive results according to the drill logs.

These reports were analyzed by JSHG Chief Geologist and Qualified Person (QP) Fred Sharpley, who said, “It will be interesting to confirm the Niobium mineralization discovered in 1955 by Dominion Gulf. I am more interested in going deeper than Dominion, as they only drilled to 60 meters. JSHG will drill 250 meters or deeper. Additionally, since Dominion never assayed for tantalum and rare earths, it will be fascinating to see if these elements are present, similar to the Sarissa Resources ‘South East Zone,’ roughly 600 meters to the south-east of JSHG’s Prometheus property.”

Based on the historical drill results from the site, JSHG is preparing drilling permit applications, and following that, will commence an exploratory drilling program later this summer. 

In 1955, Dominion Gulf’s four drill holes on JSHG’s Prometheus property revealed 0.3% to 0.5% Nb205 Niobium mineralization across approximately 15-meter intersections. Given the shallow depth of 60 meters, further deep exploration is justified.

While assays for rare-earth minerals were not completed in 1955, the JSHG geological team considers the area a strong prospect for them and will conduct assays as part of the upcoming drill program planned for this summer. 

Also in 1955, Dominion Gulf conducted an exploration of the Vulcan property, which sits directly to the east of Lake Nemegosenda. JSHG will attempt to confirm the intersections of pyrochlore mineralization obtained from Dominion Gulf’s “DDH-208-55-21” hole,  which was drilled to 1,400 feet (425 meters). Pyrochlore can be an indicator of niobium, as well as rare-earth minerals.

JSHG CEO Ben Fuschino commented, “Our years-long interest in niobium remains very high. We’re excited to have more exploration opportunities in the area. Given niobium’s versatility and importance to modern industries, we see this mineral playing a critical role as the world transitions to more energy-efficient technologies.”

Lithium One: JSHG Secures 100% Ownership

In lithium news, Joshua Gold Resources Inc. (JSHG / OTC Pink Sheets) has completed a transaction that gives the company 100% ownership of its Lithium One property. The acquisition provides JSHG full control of 40 contiguous mining claims, of which it previously owned 50%.

The 40 staked claims comprising Lithium One cover a group of three prominent areas, with an approximate land area of 1600 acres. The staked claims share a similar type of terrain where pegmatite outcrops containing spodumene have been identified on other potential lithium properties in the Gogama, Ontario area – which has been a hotbed of mineral exploration activity and home to a recent staking rush.

Lithium One is also located near another JSHG property named Lithium Two. When conditions are conducive, the company plans to conduct a ground sampling program at both sites. This is based on the recommendation of the company’s Chief Geologist and Qualified Person (QP) Fred Sharpley, who will also oversee the exploration program.

While on-site, JSHG’s team will conduct drone-based LiDAR surveys to help identify potential spodumene-bearing pegmatite outcrops.

This work will follow JSHG’s 2022 drone-enabled LiDAR surveying work at its Seymour Lake Extension property, adjacent to the lithium-producing Green Technology Metals (ASX: GT1) site. That expedition is believed to have earned the distinction of being the first-ever MNDM-approved mining survey results obtained using drone-based LiDAR in the province of Ontario.

Traditional LiDAR surveying typically relies on human-operated flights by plane or helicopter. This makes it a costly and time-consuming exploration method. By utilizing drone-enabled LiDAR, JSHG is able to complete airborne surveys while reducing costs by approximately 80%. This enables more investment into property exploration.

Drone-operated LiDAR also produces higher resolution imaging versus human-operated LiDAR flights. This is because drones are able to operate at much lower altitudes, thereby placing the scanning device several factors closer to the surface being surveyed.

The needs of the electric car battery industry in relation to lithium demand potentially make JSHG’s Lithium One and Two properties a great asset. Joshua Gold Resources CEO Ben Fuschino commented, “Lithium One and Lithium Two are situated in an area showing a lot of mineral potential. We are looking forward to getting our team on-site this spring to conduct critical, initial explorations at both properties. Using cutting-edge surveying technology, we will further demonstrate that JSHG is a leader in mineral exploration.”

‘Lithium Two’ is the Latest Property Acquisition by Joshua Gold Resources

For immediate release – In new lithium-related news, Joshua Gold Resources Inc. (JSHG / OTC Pink Sheets) has acquired full ownership of a series of 30 mining claims south of Timmins, Ontario, Canada, comprising approximately 1200 acres of potential mineral resources. The company has named it Lithium Two, partly for its proximity to its Lithium One property in which the company holds a 50% ownership stake.

The claims, located in Northrup and Robin Townships, sit atop what is known to be a granite-rich area. This is important because lithium minerals (particularly Spodumene) occur in granite pegmatites. According to JSHG’s Chief Geologist Fred Sharpley (QP) the 30 contiguous claims are “underlain by granite, which requires prospecting and sampling for lithium.”

Lithium Two sits in the area of Gogama, Ontario and shares a similar type of terrain where pegmatite outcrops containing spodumene have been identified on other potential lithium properties.

Gogama itself continues to be a hotbed of activity and has experienced a recent staking rush following findings of spodumene, a lithium-bearing mineral derived from pegmatite.

Much of the activity in Gogama is due to the increasing demand for lithium, which is a critical component in electric car batteries. Meeting the world’s lithium requirements means utilizing multiple sourcing methods, like deriving spodumene from pegmatite rock. Like Lithium One, this makes JSHG’s new property potentially very important to the lithium industry.

Joshua Gold Resources CEO Ben Fuschino commented, “Our teams continue to do very important work as the world recognizes the need to shift to more renewable energies. We look forward to conducting sampling on our Lithium One and Lithium Two properties in the near future, in hopes of enabling their development as sources of this valuable mineral.”

Lithium and Gold Results Warrant Additional Sampling

In both lithium and gold-related news, Joshua Gold Resources Inc. (JSHG / OTC Pink Sheets) is pleased to announce that results from two of its mining claim properties have each returned encouraging results.

JSHG’s lithium-related results come from a recent ground sampling program at its Seymour Lake Extension property. The property is notable for being adjacent to Green Technology Metals’ (GT1-ASX) lithium deposit, which has published excellent results in recent months.

Lab results of seven ground samples taken from JSHG’s Seymour Lake Extension property show lithium indicators that can be considered elevated. The values from the samples indicate that a more intensive exploration of the property is required, especially considering the vastness of the approximately 1100 acre property.

In addition to that, the lithium activity at the adjacent Green Technology Metals property, combined with the explosive growth of electric vehicles and the need for more lithium production also makes further exploration imperative.

JSHG CEO, Ben Fuschino said about the lithium results, “Combined with the recent lab results and our proximity to the Green Technology Metals active lithium deposit, our team remains highly focused on the continued exploration, and the economic potential of this JSHG property.”

Additionally, an October 2022 ground sampling program at the historic Champion Gold Mine, which JSHG acquired earlier that year, produced a number of lab results recently. These included two high-grade samples taken from within one of the mine’s shafts, which was assayed to contain 33.6 g/t Au and 123 g/t Au respectively.

Joshua Gold Resources’ Chief Geologist Fred Sharpley (QP) confirms, “Two high-grade grab samples 19483 and 19484 were about 3m and 5m down the shaft assayed 33.6 g/t Au and 123 g/t Au respectively in the quartz vein.” and he went on to say, “Additional sampling of the quartz veins on the property is required.”

The Champion Mine, first discovered in the late 1800’s, is located on JSHG’s Jaffrey Property, in Haycock Township which lies east of Kenora, along Highway 17 in northwest Ontario. Although the mine has been long-dormant, the Canadian Mining Journal has been cited as quantifying that the property produced approximately 1521 ounces of gold as of May 1936.

JSHG CEO Ben Fuschino commented, “The results from our current ground sampling program at the Champion Gold Mine are very interesting given the property’s documented history as a former gold producing mine. We’re excited to continue our exploration program based on that as well as the recent sampling results, especially considering the potential for more efficient extraction of gold using modern technologies.”

Stake in ‘Lithium One’ Property Taken by Joshua Gold Resources

In lithium-related news, Joshua Gold Resources Inc. (JSHG / OTC Pink Sheets) is pleased to announce it has acquired a 50% stake in a series of 40 contiguous mining claims comprising approximately 1600 acres of potential mineral resources. The company has named the property Lithium One.

The recently staked claims cover a group of three prominent areas, which share a similar type of terrain where pegmatite outcrops containing spodumene have been identified on other potential lithium properties in the Gogama, Ontario area.

Gogama itself has been a hotbed of activity and home to a recent staking rush following findings of spodumene, a lithium-bearing mineral derived from pegmatite rock.

To meet the ever-increasing demand for things like electric car batteries, producing enough lithium means relying on multiple sourcing methods, like deriving spodumene from pegmatite rock. This makes JSHG’s new property potentially very important to the lithium industry.

Joshua Gold Resources CEO Ben Fuschino commented, “Thanks in part to our great geological team, we are fortunate to have acquired an important stake in Lithium One in the growing Gogama lithium camp. JSHG’s active exploration of lithium demonstrates our company’s excitement, and the opportunities we see in helping the world shift toward more renewable sources of energy.”

In related lithium news, JSHG will soon share an important update from its Seymour Extension property, following a recent ground sampling program conducted there. That property sits adjacent to Green Metal Technologies (GT1-ASX) lithium property, a 9.9 million tonne deposit with lithium values of 1.04%.

Further, JSHG will be providing an update on another sampling program from the recently acquired Champion Mine in Haycock Township.

Lithium-bearing pegmatite exploration at JSHG property

Joshua Gold Resources Inc. is pleased to announce that its exploration team will be conducting an on-site sampling program of seven potential mineral outcrops at its Seymour Lake Extension property, which lies just 300 meters east of Green Technology Metals (ASX: GT1) lithium site.

JSHG’s on-site exploration plans follow recent LiDAR survey results that show seven potential mineral outcrops on the property. Once samples have been collected, lab analysis will be conducted which could reveal the presence of lithium-bearing pegmatite.

Using the survey data, JSHG’s Chief Geologist, Fred Sharpley (QP), was able to assess that the property appears to have a geological structure consistent with a potential lithium mineral deposit, along with the presence of indicator minerals, like pegmatite, suggesting the same:

“The lithium occurs in pegmatite related to the lenticular hornblende tonalite and granite batholith. The pegmatite deposits occur as:

  • Structural zones related to the contact of the granite and mafic volcanics.
  • North-South structural zones within the granite.”

The company’s exploration progress also follows recent news from the neighboring Green Technology Metals lithium property. The company reported that the site had doubled its interim mineral resource to 9.9MT @ 1.04% Li20 (a 105% increase over previous data).

The Green Metal Technology site’s indicated category mineral resource is also reported to have increased 2.5x to 5.2 Mt @ 1.29% Li20, and approximately 53% of total Seymour Mineral Resource is classified as Indicated.

In addition to their promising results, neighboring Green Technology Metals recently announced a strategic collaboration agreement (SCA) with the major North American lithium industry participant Lithium Americas Corp (TSX/NYSE: LAC).

Their agreement builds upon a previously created collaboration framework between the two companies. It also establishes a Strategic Management Committee to help govern the evaluation of joint exploration and development opportunities.

While not indicative of future performance, these are important steps in modern mineral exploration. Given the property’s proximity to the Green Technology Metals lithium site, and that company’s partnership announcement as well as the recent LiDAR exploration results it is particularly interesting for JSHG.

Regarding the exciting next steps at the Joshua Gold Resources property, along with the developments from the neighboring Green Technology Metals site, company President Ben Fuschino said:

“We are excited to be advancing into the next step of exploration of our Seymour Lake Extension property, especially as we receive updates from the adjoining Green Technology Metals site.

While still very early, at this stage it’s encouraging to see collaboration happening with important partners like Lithium Americas Corp. We look forward to reporting soon on the analysis of our own sampling program from the same area.”

In Likely First, Joshua Gold Resources Receives Approval of Drone LiDAR Results

Joshua Gold Resources Inc. (OTCMKTS: JSHG) is proud to announce that it has received what it believes is the very first government approval of mining survey results generated using drone-enabled LiDAR technology in the province of Ontario.

The 8-hour survey took place on May 27 and 28 of 2022 at Joshua Gold Resources’ McCool property, a gold prospect located in northern Ontario. The survey results received approval by MENDM (Ministry of Energy, Northern Development and Mines) on September 2, 2022.

LiDAR, which stands for Light Detection and Ranging, uses laser pulses to help generate precise, three dimensional information about the characteristics of the earth’s surface. It offers several advantages over other surveying methods, like the ability to penetrate tree canopy, making it extremely well suited to mineral exploration. Using LiDAR enables exploration teams to better assess surface features, and plays a critical role in dictating the next steps in exploration.

Until recently LiDAR surveying relied on human-operated flights by plane or helicopter, making it a costly and time consuming exploration method. By harnessing advancements in drone technology, the cost of completing a LiDAR survey has been reduced by approximately 80%. This is a major step forward for JSHG, our partners and the industry, and will enable more investment into property exploration.

On top of the substantial savings, drone-operated LiDAR also produces higher resolution imaging versus human operated LiDAR flights. This is because drones are able to operate at much lower altitudes, thereby placing the scanning device several factors closer to the surface being surveyed.

While JSHG is confident that this survey was the first of its kind to receive approval by MENDM, it isn’t the first time the company has commissioned this innovative technology.

Prior to the McCool property survey, drone-enabled LiDAR was first used to complete a survey at the company’s Seymour Lake Extension property, a potential lithium deposit located in Northern Ontario. These results received approval by MENDM on September 12, 2022.

Located approximately 60 Kilometers north of Thunder Bay, Ontario, JSHG’s Seymour Lake Extension property, covers 1371 acres, and sits just 300 meters east of Green Technology Metals’ (ASX: GT1) Seymour Lake lithium deposit – a site estimated to have a total mineral resource tonnage of 9.9 Mt @ 1.04% Li2O, and an indicated category mineral resource of 5.2 Mt @ 1.29% Li2O.

Using the LiDAR survey results, JSHG’s geological team, headed by Chief Geologist Fred Sharpley (QP), was able to assess that the property appears to have a geological structure consistent with a potential lithium mineral deposit, along with the presence of indicator minerals, like pegmatite, suggesting the same:

“The lithium occurs in pegmatite related to the lenticular hornblende tonalite and granite batholith. The pegmatite deposits occur as:

  • Structural zones related to the contact of the granite and mafic volcanics.  
  • North-South structural zones within the granite.

On the Seymour Extension property, a LiDAR Survey over parts of the property identified two mineral outcrops that are interpreted as pegmatite related to a north-south structure primarily within the granite at Seymour Lake.

An exploration program of prospecting and sampling is recommended.”

Regarding the LiDAR survey, Joshua Gold Resources President Ben Fuschino said, “I am proud of our geological team for deploying new innovative technology, reducing our exploration costs while at the same time increasing JSHG’s mineral exploration productivity.”

Conducting this LiDAR survey by drone comes at an exciting time for JSHG. In addition to this provincial first, the mineral exploration company recently named Peter D’Jay as an Independent Director, launched a brand new website and announced the acquisition of a new potential gold property located in northern Ontario.

Potential Lithium Indicators Surveyed on Joshua Gold Resources Property

Joshua Gold Resources Inc. (JSHG / OTC Pink Sheets) is pleased to share lithium-related news from its Seymour Lake Extension property, following an update from Fred Sharpley, JSHG Chief Geologist and QP (Qualified Person).

Located approximately 60 Kilometers north of Thunder Bay, Ontario, JSHG’s 100% owned Seymour Lake Extension lithium prospect property consists of 27 unpatented claims, covering 1371 acres. It is situated within the Caribou-Marshall Lake Greenstone Belt, and is 300 meters east of Green Technology Metals’ (ASX: GT1) Seymour Lake lithium deposit – which is estimated to contain 2-3 million tons of 1.25% lithium.

Mr. Sharpley remarks that the property appears to have a geological structure consistent with a potential lithium mineral deposit, along with the presence of indicator minerals, like pegmatite, suggesting the same:

“The lithium occurs in pegmatite related to the lenticular hornblende tonalite and granite batholith. The pegmatite deposits occur as:

Structural zones related to the contact of the granite and mafic volcanics.
North-South structural zones within the granite.

On the Seymour Extension property, a LIDAR Survey over parts of the property identified two mineral outcrops that are interpreted as pegmatite related to a north-south structure primarily within the granite at Seymour Lake.

An exploration program of prospecting and sampling is recommended.”

This assessment is based on the recent survey of the Seymour Lake Extension property, and is backed up by Mr. Sharpley’s 60 years of experience working around the world in resource exploration.

Mr. Sharpley, who holds a B.A.Sc. from the University of Saskatchewan, has worked for an impressive list of companies, including Keevil Mining Group, Temagami Mining Company Ltd. and Lacana in Mexico on the La Encantada Project.

He also spent a brief period working at Silverfields in Cobalt, Ontario as well as two years in Bathurst, New Brunswick, where he was engaged in general exploration.

In addition to JSHG, Mr. Sharpley has explored gold opportunities for other Canadian mining companies including Opawica Explorations Inc., Pelangio Mines Inc.,Detour Gold Corp., Wolfden, Sabina, NFX and Mistango River Resources Inc.

Joshua Gold Resources CEO Ben Fuschino adds, ”Lithium is one of the metals that is the future of new-energy technology. We are happy to have such a prospect in our property portfolio, and are looking forward to the results from our exploration team.”
