Infinity Stone Ventures Corp (CSE:GEMS) said it has acquired an additional 5,961 hectares over 102 cells in two blocks at the company's Galaxy lithium project near Mont Laurier, Quebec.
The Vancouver-based company said its expanded claims were prospective for lithium-cesium-tantalum (LCT) pegmatites during its October 2022 exploration program that included sampling, hand stripping, channel sampling, as well as blasting of the 30 identified pegmatites.
The company plans to do an airborne geophysical survey of the Galaxy project, beginning November 14. This will include an electromagnetics survey and radiometric survey. Part of the goals of the airborne radiometric survey will be to confirm historical reporting finding anomalous niobium levels near the south end of the project, according to Lithium Stone.

Infinity Stone CEO Zayn Kalyan said the company continues to find further prospective ground as they continue to explore the Galaxy project.

Our expanded footprint and presence in the province, including our new regional office in Montreal, are key to our growth strategy," Kalyan said in a statement.

The new northern block covers 4,144 hectares, located 17 kilometres to the north of the Lac Petagawa block.
