FE Battery Metals Corp. announced it has entered into an agreement for the Pontax West Lithium Property ("PWL") in the James Bay lithium region of northern Quebec. The newly acquired land package consists of 72 mining claims within an extremely active hard rock lithium district.

The James Bay region is now one of Canada's best-known regions for lithium with several known deposits, numerous spodumene showings, and a continuous array of new discoveries. Prospecting and initial cursory field work has identified over 20 pegmatite outcrops on the claims and a total of 117 samples have been collected from the property. Unlike many of the projects in northern Quebec, the PWL claim group are highly accessible as the area, which covers over 3,800 hectares, straddles an 8km stretch of the James Bay Road (Route Billy-Diamond Highway) which is maintained year-round and offers one of the only routes into the James Bay region of Quebec.

The PWL property is underlain by rocks of the Neoarchean age Nemiscau Subprovince which is composed mainly of metasedimentary rocks migmatized to different degrees, as well as intrusions of tonalitic, granitic to granodioritic composition and known large masses of pegmatite.
