EXPLORATION POTENTIAL

Chabinoche and Poncheville provide CDN Maverick with a large, 100%-owned exploration position in Québec’s James Bay region. Together, the project areas offer exposure to three prospective mineral systems—polymetallic VMS mineralization, lithium-bearing pegmatites, and Ni-Cu-PGE mineralization. The exploration opportunity is supported by historical work, ongoing modern data analysis, and the near-term advancement of Nottaway within the broader James Bay portfolio.

DISTRICT SCALE

Over 56,947.85 hectares of contiguous claims in a highly prospective region of James Bay.

MULTIPLE TARGETS

Exposure to lithium, VMS base/precious metals, and nickel-copper-PGE systems.

CATALYST PATHWAY

Nottaway is drill-permitted, target-defined, and advancing toward first-pass drill testing.

JAMES BAY DISTRICT CONTEXT

The Chabinoche and Poncheville projects sit within CDN Maverick’s broader James Bay strategy. The region hosts active exploration for lithium, VMS, and critical minerals, with good infrastructure, regional geological potential, and year-round access.

Together with Nottaway, the three project blocks form a large, contiguous and 100%-owned land position of roughly 56,947.85 hectares across 1,046 claims, located about 75 km north-northeast of Matagami, Québec. The projects are supported by historical exploration, modern data analysis, and a near-term catalyst at Nottaway.

Key district attributes:

  • 100% owned — ~1,046 claims across ~56,947.85 hectares
  • ~75 km north-northeast of Matagami, Québec — road-accessible and operable year-round
  • Three contiguous project blocks: Chabinoche, Nottaway, and Poncheville
  • Prospective for lithium pegmatites, polymetallic VMS, and Ni-Cu-PGE systems
  • Nottaway drill-permitted and target-defined, with an NI 43-101 technical report available
  • Exploration driven by AI-assisted targeting, modern geophysics, and field validation

NOTTAWAY

Near-term catalyst area with historical drilling, untested geophysical conductors, and drill permit authorization.

Focus: VMS-style base/precious metal targets.

 

CHABINOCHE

Northern claim group positioned near active lithium exploration in the Pontax-Evans / James Bay district.

Focus: Target ranking, structural interpretation, field validation.

PONCHEVILLE

Large southern block around Poncheville Lake with mapped pegmatite dykes and lithium-pathfinder indicators in historical datasets.

Focus: Lithium pegmatite targets and regional structure.
