Galinée Property Highlights

Galinée hosts wide, high-grade lithium-bearing pegmatites adjacent to Winsome’s Adina deposit. At a broader scale, Galinée features multiple well-defined prospects, with recent till sampling leading to the discovery of new spodumene-bearing boulders and delineating two additional highly prospective target areas.
