Toronto (Canada) – JOURDAN RESOURCES INC. (TSXV: JOR; OTCQB: JORF; FRA: 2JR1) (“Jourdan” or the “Company“) is pleased to announce that Prime Minister Justin Trudeau toured North American Lithium Inc.’s (“NAL”) lithium complex on Monday, April 3, 2023. Jourdan entered into an earn-in and joint venture agreement with NAL respecting a portion of its Valle property, which is directly east of the NAL complex. Jourdan owns a total of 16,000 hectares of land east of the NAL complex. NAL is a majority-owned indirect subsidiary of Sayona Mining Ltd. (ASX: SYA; OTCQB: SYAXF) (“Sayona”). Mr. Trudeau met with Brett Lynch, Sayona’s CEO, and the Sayona team, in recognition of the NAL complex starting production, giving NAL the distinction of becoming Canada’s only lithium producer.
Mr. Lynch stated, “We were honoured to have Prime Minister Trudeau come and visit the operating NAL complex. He understands the importance of lithium as a critical mineral, and he was anxious to come and see Canada’s only lithium operating mine. We made note that we are partnered with Jourdan, a proud Canadian company with long roots in Quebec, with whom together we plan to undertake a drill program on adjacent claims to NAL’s properties set to start in May 2023.”
Mr. Richard Quesnel, Jourdan’s Executive Chairman stated, “We appreciate the Prime Minister’s visit to the NAL complex. It signals to Canadians the significance of lithium as an energy storage component, especially in a province rich in renewable energy generated from hydroelectric resources. We are proud to have a joint venture with our neighbour North American Lithium, which owns the only operating lithium mine in Canada. Together, we look forward to contributing to the lithium market.”
