ExoSphere supports Q2 Metals’ expanded mineralisation at Cisco Project

Reporting results from three drill holes, Q2 Metals’ identified high-grade mineralisation at CS25-036, CS25-038, and CS25-039 – reinforcing the district-scale potential of one of Canada’s most promising emerging lithium regions.

The Cisco Lithium Project, located within the Eeyou Istchee James Bay region of Quebec, spans over 41 000 hectares with district-scale potential and initial exploration target ranging 215–329 million t at a grade between 1–1.38% lithium oxide. With mineralisation confirmed across multiple wide pegmatite zones, the project has the potential to become a cornerstone in efforts to strengthen the resilience of North America’s lithium supply chain.

In its recent announcement, Q2 Metals reported CS25-038 delivered 17 separate intervals, the widest being 66.5 m at 1.55% Li2O and 58.9 m at 1.09% Li2O, while CS25-039 showed 12 separate intervals, including 108.5m at 1.62% Li2O, 71.0m at 1.84% Li2O, 77.7m at 1.48% Li2O, and 107.4m at 1.87% Li2O – underscoring the significant size and continuity of the mineralised zone. The Cisco Lithium Project has been recognised by the Association de I’exploration minière du Québec (AEMQ) as a finalist for the Discovery of the Year Award.

Enhancing its targeting with the real-time multiphysics imaging enabled by Fleet Space’s ExoSphere platform, Q2’s drill results for CS25-036 expanded the known mineralisation zone, resulting in nine intervals, its widest being 272.5m at 1.61% Li2O, which continues open at depth and along strike – an indication of strong expansion potential. A fourth drill rig will start in October 2025 to support Q2’s efforts to deliver an initial Mineral Resource Estimate in the first half of 2026.

Recently, Fleet Space opened its new 5300m² global headquarters and advanced manufacturing facility in Adelaide, marking the company’s 10-year anniversary. For accelerating orebody knowledge and resource development while reducing environmental impact of exploration for the global mining industry with ExoSphere, the Australian Financial Review named Fleet Space Australia’s Most Innovative Company of 2025.

"Around the world, agile geoscience is helping exploration teams move from insight to results with unprecedented speed, precision, and reduced environmental impact,” said CEO & Co-Founder of Fleet Space, Flavia Tata Nardini. “With global mining leaders using ExoSphere’s real-time subsurface intelligence to refine drill targeting, we’re enabling faster, smarter, and more sustainable outcomes across the exploration and resource development cycle. We’re proud to support Q2 as they advance a project that has the potential to meaningfully strengthen the resilience of the Americas’ lithium supply chain."
