TSX-V- and ASX-listed Patriot Battery Metals has commenced the 2024 winter drill campaign at its Corvette property, in James Bay, Quebec, which the company says is the most aggressive to date.
The drill programme will increase to ten drill rigs by the end of January until late April, and will target at least 45 000 m over the winter period.
The primary objective of the programme is infill drilling to improve the confidence of the CV5 pegmatite's geological model to support an upgrade in the confidence of the maiden mineral resource estimate from the inferred category to the indicated category.
"We have another huge year ahead of us with this aggressive drill campaign to upgrade the resource and continue to de-risk the project. It is an exciting time for the company,” says president and CEO Blair Way.
