Naughty Ventures Launches Maiden Exploration Program At Green Lightning Lithium Project
Naughty Ventures Corp. has announced the launch of its maiden exploration program at its Green Lightning Lithium Project, a 7,207-hectare claim package strategically located in the Frotet-Evans Greenstone Belt of Quebec, directly adjoining Second Quarter Metals Corp.’s Cisco Lithium Project. The Green Lightning property is situated within the Eeyou Istchee James Bay territory and benefits from year-round ground access via the Billy Diamond Highway and the regional forestry road network. The CN rail terminus at Matagami lies approximately 150 km to the south, providing logistical connectivity to the Bécancour battery materials hub. The Company has engaged VoiseyScore Geoscience Inc. to lead the exploration program and to coordinate the NI 43-101 Technical Report supporting the property. The Green Lightning Lithium Project directly adjoins the eastern boundary of Second Quarter Metals Corp.'s Cisco Lithium Project. On April 20, 2026, Second Quarter Metals announced an inaugural Inferred Mineral Resource Estimate at Cisco of 295 million tonnes at 1.36% Li2O. The Cisco mineralized zone extends over 1.5 kilometres of strike length and remains open at depth and along strike. The broader Frotet-Evans Greenstone Belt is a recognized lithium-bearing pegmatite province, also hosting the Sirmac and Moblan lithium deposits, and is endowed with multiple commodity systems including: Lithium: Cisco (Q2 Metals), Sirmac, and Moblan pegmatite deposits. Gold: Sumitomo-Kenorland Minerals’ Regnault deposit (14.5 Mt at 5.47 g/t Au for 2.55 million ounces, Inferred, December 2025) and the past-producing Troilus Au-Cu mine. Rare Earth Elements: The Montviel Carbonatite Complex (Geomega Resources Inc.), which hosts a historical estimate of 82.4 million tonnes Indicated grading 1.51% TREO and 184.2 million tonnes Inferred grading 1.43% TREO. Nickel-Copper: Multiple Ni-Cu occurrences associated with mafic-ultramafic intrusions throughout the belt. Zinc: The Matagami VMS camp to the south, one of Canada’s historic zinc districts. The Company cautions that the mineral deposits, mineral resources, mineral occurrences, past production and exploration results described above in respect of the Cisco, Sirmac, Moblan, Regnault, Troilus, Montviel and Matagami properties, and of the broader Frotet-Evans Greenstone Belt, occur on adjacent or nearby properties in which the Company has no right, title or interest. Mineralization hosted on adjacent or nearby properties is not necessarily indicative of mineralization on the Green Lightning Lithium Project. The planned program is designed to systematically evaluate and advance the Green Lightning claims using proven and modern exploration techniques to generate ranked exploration targets with an accompanying NI 43-101 Technical Report, qualifying as $150,000 of CSE exploration expenditure. Phase 1 — Exploration Data Compilation & Geological Analysis and Modeling: Compilation and modern re-processing of available geological raw data (SIGEOM datasets, assessment reports, regional prospect data, airborne magnetic and EM grids). LiDAR acquisition and interpretation for outcrop probability and structural lineament extraction, satellite-based mapping (Sentinel-2, ASTER, ALOS PALSAR), satellite-derived gas estimation for pathfinder signatures beneath glacial cover, integrated structural synthesis, and AI/ML prospectivity modeling against known regional pegmatite and gold occurrences. Phase 2 — Bottom-of-Till Verification: Targeted prospecting and till-bedrock interface sampling at the highest-ranked targets, subject to budget remaining after Phase 1 desktop workstreams. Program Completion — Ranked drill-ready target generation, 3D target model with drill target recommendations, and NI 43-101 Technical Report submission. The technical content of this news release has been reviewed and approved by Clyde McMillan, P.Geo. (OGQ #02193), Principal Geologist of VoiseyScore Geoscience Inc. and a Qualified Person under National Instrument 43-101. Mr. McMillan is independent of Naughty Ventures Corp.
