The 2025 Nunavik Mining Workshop will be held from April 1 to 3 at the Kattitavik Town Hall in Kuujjuaq.
Wednesday April 2, 2025 11:30am - 12:00pm EDT
Whiterock Lithium Corp. is a junior mineral exploration company focused on finding critical minerals and elements on their properties in Quebec, Canada. In 2023 several Lithium-Cesium-Tantalum (LCT) pegmatite clusters were discovered on their Sacred Banana project located in Nunavik and their subsurface continuation drill tested in 2024. The results indicate that the presence of several flat laying, large LCT pegmatites dikes starting at surface which could be a major source for raw materials that provide critical elements needed in clean energy solutions. The LCT pegmatite system discovered is characterized by simple mineralogy of dominantly spodumene as lithium-bearing phase, and quartz plus feldspar as major gangue minerals. It was conceptually demonstrated that it is viable to produce a high-grade (6% Li2O) mineral concentrate with low Fe2O3 content. The focus in the future will be to work towards a mineral resource estimate and start environmental baseline studies.
