Q2 Metals Drills 188.6 M Interval of Continuous Spodumene-Pegmatite and Concludes the 2024 Summer Drill Campaign at its Cisco Lithium Property, James Bay Quebec Canada
Q2 Metals Corp. (TSXV:QTWO)(OTCQB:QUEXF) has concluded its Summer 2024 Drill Campaign at the Cisco Lithium Property in Quebec, Canada. The campaign completed 5 drill holes totaling 2,609.9 meters, bringing the total drilling since May 2024 to 6,359.7 meters over 17 holes. All holes intercepted pegmatite with visual indications of spodumene mineralization.
Key highlights include:
- Drill hole CS24-022 encountered 14 spodumene-pegmatite intervals, with the widest continuous interval of 52.3 meters.
- Drill hole CS24-023 encountered 15 spodumene-pegmatite intervals, with the widest continuous interval of 188.6 meters.
The campaign focused on exploring the connection of wide, continuous pegmatite zones encountered in previous holes. Samples have been sent for mineral analysis to confirm the presence of lithium. The company awaits results from 13 drill holes yet to be reported.

VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / September 24, 2024 / Q2 Metals Corp. (TSXV:QTWO)(OTCQB:QUEXF)(FSE:458) ("Q2" or the "Company") is pleased to provide an update on the Summer 2024 Drill Program at the Cisco Lithium Property (the "Property" or the "Cisco Property") located within the greater Nemaska traditional territory of the Eeyou Istchee James Bay region of Quebec, Canada.
The Summer 2024 Drill Campaign at the Cisco Lithium Property has concluded with a total of five (5) drill holes for approximately 2,609.9 m completed. Since May 2024, the Company has drilled a total of 6,359.7 m over 17 holes. All drill holes intercepted pegmatite with visual indications of spodumene mineralization identified.
"To say it's been a very productive first drill season for Q2 Metals at our Cisco Lithium Property is an understatement," said Q2 Metals President and CEO Alicia Milne. "The property continues to deliver, and we are pleased with what we're seeing and are eagerly awaiting the results from the now 13 drills holes that are yet to be reported."
"We have been incredibly fortunate to be able to have built as much value in an early-stage project in four months. We have just started on the Cisco Project and look forward to receiving the assays on the holes drilled as we continue to move forward with Cisco," said Q2 Metals VP of Exploration Neil McCallum.
The Summer 2024 Drill Campaign was focused on exploring the connection of the wide, continuous pegmatite zones that were encountered in holes CS24-010, CS24-018 and CS24-021. The last two holes of the season continued to confirm and expand the understanding of the main pegmatite zone.
The geological team has completed the core cutting and logging of the last two (2) drill holes (CS24-022 to 023) of the Summer 2024 Campaign and the samples have been dispatched to the SGS Canada preparation laboratory located in Val-d'Or, QC for mineral analysis to confirm the presence of lithium. The visual results of drill holes CS24-022 and CS24-023 are herein reported.
Summer 2024 Drilling Update
Figure 1. Map of Drilling area, Cisco Property
Drill hole CS24-022 was drilled on the same line as hole CS24-018 and collared 200 metres behind it, encountering 14 individual spodumene pegmatite intervals. Nine (9) intervals were greater than 10 m wide, with the widest individual interval measuring 52.3 m.
CS24-023 was drilled at the same collar location as hole CS24-020 in order to test the southern strike direction of the main large continuous pegmatite zone. Drill hole CS24-023 encountered 15 individual spodumene pegmatite intervals of which eight (8) intervals were greater than 10 m wide, with the widest individual interval measuring 188.6 m.

The mineralized intervals in all the holes are not necessarily representative of the true width and the modelled pegmatite zones are being refined with every additional hole.
Cautionary Statement: The presence of pegmatites does not confirm the presence of lithium (spodumene or other lithium minerals). Pegmatites are fractionated coarse grained igneous rocks commonly associated with lithium mineralization; however, many pegmatites do not contain mineralization. The presence of any mineralization can only be confirmed with assaying.
About the Cisco Property
The Cisco Property is comprised of 222 mineral claims and is 11,374 hectares in size. It is located less than 10 km east of the Billy Diamond Highway, and is approximately 150 km north of Matagami, a small town that contains the closest rail link to much of James Bay. The Property lies within the greater Nemaska Community lands of the Eeyou Istchee Territory, James Bay, Quebec.
The Property is situated along the Frotet Evans Greenstone Belt, comprised of a volcanic package dominated by mafic to felsic metavolcanic rocks, of the southern James Bay Lithium District, the same belt that hosts the Sirmac and Moblan lithium deposits, located 130 km and 180 km away, respectively.
Sampling, Analytical Methods and QA/QC Protocols
All drill core samples are shipped to SGS Canada's preparation facility in Val D'Or, Quebec, for standard sample preparation (code PRP92) which includes drying at 105°C, crushing to
A Quality Assurance / Quality Control (QA/QC) protocol following industry best practices was incorporated into the sampling program. Measures include the systematic insertion of quartz blanks and certified reference materials (CRMs) into sample batches at a rate of approximately
