Recent Business Update

Recently, the company had announced the signing of a definitive agreement to expand its strategic land position west of the Shaakichiuwaanaan Property through the acquisition of the Pikwa Property in Quebec’s James Bay region. Under the agreement, PMET will acquire a 100% interest in the Pikwa Property from Azimut Exploration Inc. and SOQUEM Inc., both well-established Quebec-focused mineral exploration entities. This transaction boosts PMET’s regional footprint and aligns with its ongoing exploration and development objectives in one of Canada’s most prospective mining jurisdictions.

The Pikwa Property consists of 509 Exclusive Exploration Rights covering roughly 10 kilometres of highly prospective greenstone belt terrain directly adjoining PMET’s flagship Shaakichiuwaanaan Property. The geological setting at Pikwa is considered favourable for a broad range of commodities across several deposit types, including orogenic gold, porphyry-style gold-copper-silver systems, and lithium-cesium-tantalum pegmatites. With the acquisition completed, PMET now holds more than 70 kilometres of continuous greenstone trend across its Shaakichiuwaanaan, Pikwa and Pontois properties. This trend already hosts significant LCT pegmatite occurrences, including the major CV5 and CV13 deposits situated on the Shaakichiuwaanaan Property.

Historical work at Pikwa further supports its potential, with spodumene-bearing pegmatite identified at surface and spodumene grains found in till samples. In addition to its lithium prospects, the property also contains several base and precious metal targets, notably the Hyperion and Copperfield prospects, which were the focus of earlier exploration programs.
