ROUYN-NORANDA, QC, July 15, 2024 /CNW/ - Comet Lithium Corporation (TSXV: CLIC) (FSE: 8QY) ("Comet Lithium" or the "Corporation") is pleased to announce that it has entered into a Purchase and Sale Agreement on July 12, 2024 with Troilus Gold Corp. ("Troilus Gold") (the "Agreement") pursuant to which the Corporation will acquire from Troilus Gold three prospective lithium projects located in the James Bay region, namely, the Mercator, Monarch and Elmer East projects (the "Transaction").
Vincent Metcalfe, President and CEO commented, "The acquisition drives further consolidation in the James Bay area, enhancing our strategic land positions and providing significant optionality for Comet shareholders. By securing these prospective assets, we are making investments at opportune prices. The well-located and highly prospective projects we are acquiring will be instrumental in our future growth and further enhance our position within the highly active and strategic Trieste Lithium Greenstone Belt".
Mercator Project Summary
The Mercator Project is located 40 kilometres southeast of Comet's Liberty property and Winsome Resources' Adina project (ASX: WR1). It is comprised of 29 mining claims covering approximately 14.91 km². These mining claims are adjacent to Winsome Resources' Tilly Project and Loyal Lithium's Trieste Project (ASX: LLI).
The Mercator Project is predominantly covered by sediments with large, mapped, identified pegmatite dykes, in a favorable geological environment for LCT pegmatites. The Mercator Project area is primarily underlain by the Archean Salomon River Formation, which is interpreted to unconformably overlay the greenstones of the adjacent Trieste Formation. The lithologies are primarily metasedimentary, including biotite, amphibole, garnet, and sillimanite paragneisses, as well as metatexites and local iron formations.
Monarch Project Summary
The road-accessible Monarch Project is comprised of 39 mining claims covering approximately 20.61 km². These mining claims are surrounded by Cygnus Metals' Auclair Project (ASX: CY5) and on trend with the recent pegmatite discoveries, located 60 kilometres north-east of the Whabouchi lithium mine owned and operated by Arcadium Lithium (NYSE: ALTM and ASX: LTM) ("Arcadium"). The Monarch Project is less than one kilometre west to Cygnus Metals' Auriga Discovery, with high grades of up to 6.5% Li2O and intersections of up to 13.9 metres @ 1.3% Li2O from 42.8 metres. Recent results at Auriga covers a strike length of 1.9 kilometres, with multiple parallel pegmatites intersected and mineralisation remaining open in all directions under shallow glacial cover. The Monarch Project is also on trend with the Pegasus pegmatite discovery on Cygnus Metals' Auclair Project of 43.7m @ 1.15% Li2O below 10 metres of glacial overburden was intersected. A third discovery, the Lyra discovery also on Cygnus Metals' Auclair Project, trend with the Monarch Project, Lyra has planned drilling, and exhibits both scale (up to 15 metres wide) and grade (up to 6.7% Li2O) (please refer to Cygnus Metals Limited press releases (ASX announcements) dated November 28, 2023, January 10, 2024 and May 17, 2024). All three spodumene discoveries to date fall within a highly prospective 10 kilometres LCT fractionation corridor, identified through the discovery and sampling of pegmatites, with assays returning favourably low K/Rb ratios.
The Monarch Project is well-located in the hinge-zone of a refolded fold, it is also highly prospective geology for orogenic gold and VMS potential. Previous work by Troilus Gold returned strong soil anomalies in Li, Ta, Cs, and Be, which are all on trend with Auclair's pegmatites discovery. Previous historical work completed by Virginia Mines with a focus on gold mineralization discovery, included a geophysical magnetic survey in 1996, several drill holes campaigns in 1996, 1997 & 2010 and a gold grain survey in 2005. The work followed the discovery of the Golden Butterly showing located in the center of the Monarch Project.
Elmer East Project Summary
The Elmer East Project is comprised of 32 mining claims covering approximately 16.7 km². Elmer East Project is located 20 km south west of Arcadium's Galaxy project. Arcadium's Galaxy project is the former James Bay Lithium Project of Allkem Limited, who merged with Livent Corporation in January 2024 to form Arcadium. The Elmer East Project is located directly north of Azimut Exploration's Wapatik Project (TSX:AZM) where eight multi-kilometre target areas have thus been defined, including at least 30 distinct outcropping targets likely corresponding to pegmatites. Several of these outcrops are anomalous in lithium, cesium and tantalum ("LCT"), as well as other associated pathfinder elements for LCT pegmatites (rubidium, gallium, tin). The Wapatik Project also displays potential for intrusion-related nickel-copper mineralization and shear-related gold mineralization, based on the results of exploration programs conducted by Azimut and Mont Royal since 2021 (please refer to Azimut Exploration's press releases dated December 7, 2021, June 29, October 3, 2022, October 27, 2022, April 24, and September 19, 2023).
Terms of Acquisition
Pursuant to the Agreement, upon closing of the Transaction Comet Lithium will be required to:
The Transaction remains subject to regulatory approval, including that of the TSX Venture Exchange.
The closing of the Transaction is expected to occur in the third quarter of 2024.

About Comet Lithium Corporation
Comet Lithium is a dynamic lithium-focused exploration company active in the prolific James Bay District of Quebec. Comet Lithium's flagship asset is its 100%-owned Liberty Property contiguous to Winsome Resources' Adina lithium deposit, a growing high-grade lithium discovery. Comet Lithium is advancing its Liberty Property to first-ever drilling.
Cautionary Note regarding the JORC Data
The JORC Code has been accepted for current disclosure rules in Canada under NI 43-101. There are no technical report supporting the presented results as this is not required under JORC Code. Readers must be aware that the technical information relating to Cygnus Metals has been obtained from several press releases of Cygnus Metals (the "Cygnus Press Releases") and such information has not been verified by the Corporation's Qualified Person but is believed to be reasonably reliable. While Comet Lithium has determined that the results are relevant to the Monarch Project given that the Monarch Project and the Cygnus's Auclair project are adjacent to each other and Monarch Project is on strike with Cygnus' mineralized pegmatites in addition that Cygnus has identified pegmatite targets located less than 500 m away from the Auclair-Monarch claim border. Readers are cautioned to not place undue reliance on the results as it is not indicative of the mineralization of the Monarch Project and the Cygnus result do not mean or imply that mineralization exist on the Monarch Project.
