Force Energy Corp maintains a 100% working interest in the Zoro 1 Lithium Property in the Snow Lake area of west-central Manitoba, Canada.
The Zoro 1 property is a 52 hectare (128 acre) tract of land located near the East Shore of Wekusko Lake in west-central Manitoba, Canada. There are seven zoned pegmatite dykes on the property. The main, most westerly dyke is 4.5 to 6 m high, 27 m wide and 183 m long.
A historic reserve estimate for Li2O has been calculated on limited drilling on a single dyke on the Zoro 1 property. Drilling indicated reserves coupled with data from trenching have been calculated with a total undiluted tonnage given as 1,727,550 at 0.945% Li2O. The deposits are of significant merit but will require further exploration and work. Force Energy plans to explore and develop its Zoro 1 Lithium property.
According to the United States Geological Survey (USGS), global end-use markets for lithium include ceramics and glass, batteries, lubricating greases, air treatment, continuous casting and primary aluminum production. Batteries, especially rechargeable batteries, are the market for lithium compounds with the largest growth potential as major automobile companies pursue the development of lithium batteries to power hybrid electric cars.
