SnapshotIn September 2024, Winsome announced the results of the Adina Lithium Project Scoping Study, based on the scenario of mineralised material being mined at Adina and transported to the Renard operation for processing.

Renard Operation is the former diamond mine located 60km from Adina and has a convertible processing facility, existing permits and established infrastructure including roads, rail, and an airport. Renard processing Plant was put into care-and-maintenance after shutting down in 2020 and never restarted.

Winsome Resources acquired an option to purchase the Renard Mine. During the option period Winsome will confirm the feasibility of repurposing Renard for lithium production.

On January 24, 2025 Lithium announced that it has submitted the Preliminary Information Statement for its Adina Lithium Mining Project with the Ministère de l’Environnement, de la Lutte contre les changements climatiques, de la Faune et des Parcs.

Deposit type

  • Pegmatite

Summary:

The mineralisation encountered at the Adina project is typical of a LithiumCaesium-Tantalum (LCT) type of pegmatite. The pegmatite body is oriented sub-parallel to the general strike of the host rocks. The host rocks are composed of Archean Lac Guyer greenstone rocks, which include mafic and ultramafic rocks interlayered with horizons of metasedimentary and felsic volcanic rocks.

Dimensions
The approximate dimensions of the Adina deposit as modelled is 2,300m east – west, 750m north-south, with drilling intersecting mineralisation to a depth of 350m below surface. The resource has been reported within the Adina claims and truncated at claim boundaries where intersected.
