Jourdan Resources (JOR) is planning a summer exploration program on its Baillargé property in Québec.

The Baillargé property consists of 35 claims. The area comprises 12.9 sq. km. in total. The known four Lithium-bearing pegmatites at the property were exposed along strike during last summer’s mapping and soil sampling campaign. These pegmatites are scheduled to be extensively drilled during the 2023 summer campaign. Jourdan has obtained permits for 20 drillhole sites, which are intended to test the four different pegmatites with known spodumene occurrences.

Four known pegmatite dykes with spodumene minerals will be targeted by the 20 drillholes with a total of 3,000 metres of diamond drilling.

Executive Chairman Dr. Andy Rompel commented on the campaign. “As we see similar potential to our flagship Vallée project with its highly prolific pegmatite swarm. We have already identified four individual pegmatites laden with spodumene (up to 50 cm in length), and this area is known by us to have high-grade lithium assay results, and we have secured the requisite permits to drill.”

Rene Bharti, Jourdan’s chief executive officer added that having such a relatively large land position allows the team multiple areas to explore, in addition to the extensive work being conducted with North American Lithium on a portion of the Vallée property.

“We are very encouraged by the initial work completed at Baillargé and look forward to an extensive drill program to establish an initial mineral resource estimate.”

Jourdan Resources Inc is an exploration-stage mining company focused on acquiring and exploring mining properties in lithium and other minerals.
