QPM Precious and Critical Minerals Project Portfolio:
Gold and Lithium:
QPM holds a highly prospective land package covering approximately 70,900 hectares largely within the emerging James Bay gold camp. The road-accessible Sakami project is host to a 23 kilometre (km) long gold-bearing structural corridor. Drilling to date at the La Pointe and La Pointe Extension targets within this trend has identified gold mineralization across widths of up to 75 m and to a depth of up to 500 m with reported intercepts of 2.51 g/t gold (Au) over 54.65 m from drill hole EX-10; 9.22 g/t Au over 12.55 m from drill hole EX-19 and 2.52 g/t Au over 48.55 m from drill hole PT-16-92. The identified gold mineralization at both La Pointe and La Pointe Extension remains open to depth and along strike. Further south along the same gold-bearing structure lies an intriguing undrilled coincident gold in soil geochemical anomalies and Induce Polarization (IP) geophysical chargeability anomaly with similar signature to the La Pointe and La Pointe Extension targets.
The Elmer East project is host to an undrilled 4.2 km long east–west oriented gold and base metal bearing structural trends known as the Lloyd showing where grab samples have returned results of up to 68.10 g/t gold, 7.99% Zinc and 7,660 ppm Copper.
Spodumene bearing pegmatites have been identified throughout the QPM land package with a recently completed drilling campaign at the Ninaaskumuwin project where +20 m spodumene bearing pegmatites with vertical continuity of up to 150 m were intercepted in drilling late 2024 (analytical results are pending at this time).
Rare Earths
The Heavy Rare Earth Elements (HREE) Kipawa project (68% QPM, 32% Investissement Québec), 50 km east of Temiscaming in southwestern Quebec, is host to a historical 2013 Proven and Probable reserves of 19.8 million tonnes grading 0.411% total rare earth oxides (TREO). The road accessible project covers an area of 4,300 hectares with good access to local infrastructure.
