Executive Summary

  • Lancaster Resources Inc. acquired 100% interest in the “Lac Iris 4” mineral claim package (~1,175 ha) at its Lac Iris Polymetallic Project in Quebec’s James Bay region.
  • The new land brings the total contiguous acreage of the Lac Iris project to ~1,870 ha—a ~170 % increase – and is located within 10–11 km of Power Metallic Mines’ Nisk and Lion discoveries and near the Whabouchi lithium pegmatite deposit.
  • The acquisition expands Lancaster’s exploration footprint in a geologically prospective corridor for both precious (gold) and critical metals (nickel, copper, lithium), complementing its existing projects in Canada and Australia.

Key Details

  • Acquisition Scope: 100 % interest in “Lac Iris 4” claims; ~1,175 ha added to the Lac Iris Project.
  • Total Project Size: Approximately 1,870 ha of contiguous land after acquisition (≈170 % increase).
  • Location Advantages:
