Volta Metals CEO Kerem Usenmez joined Steve Darling from Proactive to share news the company has acquired a 100% interest in the strategic ZigZag Lithium property, adjacent to its Falcon West Lithium Project in northwestern Ontario. This acquisition expands Volta Metals’ land portfolio within the emerging Seymour-Falcon Lithium Belt, totaling 8,287 hectares across its ZigZag, Falcon West, and Crescent Lake Lithium Projects.
The ZigZag Project, spanning 2,710 hectares, includes the high-grade Dempster East Lithium Showing, which returned lithium oxide (Li₂O) values as high as 3.67%, and presents strong potential for additional lithium, cesium, tantalum, gallium, and niobium mineralization. With lithium occurrences now extending over a 10 km strike length, Usenmez highlighted that the Dempster East pegmatite, located centrally within the ZigZag property, showcases exciting prospects for further exploration and resource expansion.
Usenmez explained the approach: focusing on already identified high-grade pegmatites while leveraging geophysical surveys to uncover additional targets. The company, guided by technical advisor Dr. Fred Briggs, aims to maximize early-stage findings and enhance geological understanding.
