Q2 Metals' New Financing & Exploration Target | Alicia Milne & Neil McCallum

Q2 Metals' New Financing & Exploration Target | Alicia Milne & Neil McCallum

Author: rockstockchannel July 28, 2025 Duration: 27:41
In this episode, Howard and Matt sit down with Alicia Milne, CEO of Q2 Metals, and Neil McCallum, VP of Exploration, for an in-depth discussion on recent developments at the company's flagship Cisco lithium project in Quebec’s James Bay region. Key topics discussed include Q2's recently announced exploration target, estimating lithium mineralization at Cisco between 215 and 329 million tons grading between 1% and 1.38% Li₂O, making it potentially one of the largest undeveloped lithium projects globally. We also explore Q2's successful upsized financing of CAD $26 million through a charitable flow-through structure—a transaction significantly oversubscribed by institutional investors and notably executed without warrants or hold periods, highlighting strong investor interest. Neil provides detailed insights into the geology of the Cisco project, discussing current drilling plans, expected timelines for a maiden resource estimate, mineralization extent, and logistics advantages due to Cisco’s proximity to existing rail infrastructure. The discussion offers clarity on Q2’s pathway to ownership of the property and addresses investor questions around potential future dilution and upcoming milestones.
