The Bianco Carbonatite Project is situated approximately 12½ km southwest of the Kingfisher Lake First Nation and 156 km north of Pickle Lake, Ontario. It comprises 85 single cell mining claims, encompassing approximately 3,735 hectares (9,229.3 acres), and is characterized by a geophysical magnetic anomaly consistent with carbonatite complexes observed in the region

Originally identified and mapped during an Ontario Geological Survey (OGS) in the 1970’s, Bianco lies within an area known for significant Nb mineralization. The Project is strategically located between the Big Beaver House and Schryburt Lake Carbonatite projects. Historical results from these nearby projects include assays of 2.92% Nb₂O₅ over 1.6 meters and 1.05% Nb₂O₅ over 2 meters at the Big Beaver House property, as well as sampling results of 1.82% Nb₂O₅ from a grab sample and 0.40% Nb₂O₅ over 2.43 meters at the Schryburt Lake Carbonatite property.
Notably, no prior exploration activities have been conducted at Bianco, highlighting its potential as a promising target for future mineral discovery.
Mineralization at nearby or adjacent projects is not necessarily indicative of mineralization hosted on the Company’s projects.
