VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Nov. 08, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- QMC Quantum Minerals Corp., (TSXV:QMC) (FRANKFURT:3LQ) (OTC PINK:QMCQF) (“QMC” or "the Company"). Crews have begun to re-locate and re-sample at the anomalous (>2,000ppm Li2O) sites identified within the company’s Irgon Lithium Mine Property, located in the Winnipeg River Pegmatite Field in S.E. Manitoba. The anomalous sample results were reported in the Fogwill Assessment Report which was based on the 2011 assessment work (Manitoba AR #52L13324) and was noted in the company’s news release of October 18, 2017. These samples will be assayed to determine the concentration of Li2O as they will be obtained from lithium-bearing pegmatitic dikes, other than the Irgon dike, that are known to occur on the property. The size and continuity of these dikes will be evaluated and if results merit, these lithium-bearing dikes will be more fully explored during the 2018 exploration program.
The Fogwill assessment report documented eight grab samples, from the 2011 assessment work program that returned with lithium values greater than 2,000 ppm. Sampling also indicated dikes with elevated rubidium (greater than 2,000 ppm), beryllium (greater than 1,000 ppm) and tantalum (to 280 ppm) which suggests that other dikes on the property will require additional evaluation.
