Brunswick Exploration Identifies Seven New Spodumene Targets and Stakes Additional Claims at Anatacau Main
MWN-AI** Summary
Brunswick Exploration Inc. has announced the identification of three new high-priority lithium spodumene targets at its Anatacau Main Project in Quebec’s Eeyou-Istchee James Bay region. This discovery aligns with ongoing drilling efforts, enhancing the project's profile as one of Brunswick's key assets. Situated near a major lithium structural corridor that includes Rio Tinto's Galaxy Project, the Anatacau Main Project has proven to be promising, as indicated by President and CEO Killian Charles.
The recent exploration efforts revealed three unverified spodumene showings near the Anais discovery site, significantly expanding known lithium exploration zones. The Company identified over 200 pegmatite outcrops here, with the largest stretching approximately 500 by 200 meters. In a strategic move, Brunswick also staked claims surrounding the project to cover additional spodumene showings and 150 more pegmatite outcrops. This indicates a potential secondary lithium trend correlated with existing mineral infrastructure.
Furthermore, the Pontax trend has emerged as a substantial NE-SW lithium structural corridor within the property, boasting over 13 highly fractionated pegmatites with favorable K/Rb ratios. This trend underscores the exploration potential within the larger Anatacau project area, which also neighbors other active lithium projects.
Brunswick's ongoing exploration is part of a broader strategy to solidify its position in the lithium market, vital for global energy transition efforts. The company's commitment to assessing these new findings will advance their exploration initiatives once conditions allow. As Brunswick Exploration continues to focus on grassroots exploration, its portfolio remains one of the most extensive in the lithium sector across Canada and beyond.
MWN-AI** Analysis
Brunswick Exploration Inc. (TSX-V: BRW, OTCQB: BRWXF) has made significant strides in its exploration endeavors, particularly at the Anatacau Main Project in Quebec. The identification of seven new spodumene targets highlights the potential of this project to become a substantial player in the lithium market, crucial for the ongoing energy transition.
The strategic location of the project, adjacent to major lithium assets like Rio Tinto's Galaxy Project, enhances its appeal. Investors should monitor the outcomes of the ongoing drilling program closely, as positive results could catalyze a price uptick in Brunswick's stock. The company's commitment to conducting extensive prospecting campaigns post-drilling indicates a proactive approach to exploration, which is reassuring for potential investors.
Further, with the identification of over 200 pegmatite outcrops in proximity to the Anais discovery, Brunswick is strategically positioning itself within a promising lithium-rich corridor. The potential for these showing developments to yield commercial-grade lithium can significantly bolster the company’s valuation.
Investors should also consider the broader lithium market dynamics. With global demand surging due to a shift towards electric vehicles and renewable energy storage solutions, companies engaged in lithium exploration and production are well-positioned for growth. Brunswick's extensive grassroots exploration portfolio, which includes other projects in Greenland and Saudi Arabia, underscores its ambition to capitalize on this trend.
In conclusion, Brunswick Exploration's recent discoveries are promising indicators of its potential growth trajectory. Investors should keep an eye on upcoming drill results and market conditions while considering a position in BRW as part of a diversified portfolio focused on renewable resource investments. However, they must also remain cautious of potential risks associated with mineral exploration, including regulatory hurdles and market volatility.

MONTREAL, Feb. 19, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Brunswick Exploration Inc. (TSX-V: BRW, OTCQB: BRWXF; FRANKFURT:1XQ; “BRW” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce it has identified three new high priority lithium targets (area A, B and C in Figure 1) at the Anatacau Main Project, where drilling is currently underway, located in the Eeyou-Istchee James Bay region of Quebec. The Project is strategically situated 22 kilometers east and along strike of a major proven lithium-bearing structural corridor also hosting Rio Tinto’s Galaxy Project and Brunswick’s Anatacau West Project.
Mr. Killian Charles, President and CEO of BRW, commented: "Anatacau is rapidly proving to be one of the most exciting projects in our portfolio alongside Mirage with the addition of these seven potential spodumene showings within larger packages of highly evolved and favorable pegmatites. These high priority targets were the result of additional compilation work in preparation for the ongoing drill program and highlight the significant exploration potential of the Project. Following the drill program at Anais, Brunswick will commence a major prospecting campaign to rapidly evaluate these new targets once ground conditions permit field activities."

Anais Discovery Targets
Between two and five kilometers south of the Anais showing where the Company is currently drilling, three unverified spodumene showings were identified through compilation work. These showings significantly expand the exploration potential surrounding the Anais discovery (area A in Figure 1). Over 200 pegmatite outcrops have been identified through satellite imagery in this area with the largest measuring approximately 500 by 200 meters.
Newly Staked Targets
Contiguous and located immediately west to the Anatacau Main Project, BRW recently completed staking covering an additional three unverified spodumene showings and 150 pegmatite outcrops (area B in Figure 1). The largest identified outcrop measures 800 by 100 meters. It is possible that the potential spodumene showings, alongside the southern most targets in area A, form a new secondary trend to the lithium-bearing structural corridor hosting Rio Tinto’s Galaxy Project and Brunswick’s Anais showing.
Pontax Trend Targets
The Pontax trend is an emerging major NE–SW regional lithium-bearing structural corridor extending over 20 kilometers across the southern portion of the Anatacau Property. Brunswick Exploration has identified over 13 highly fractionated pegmatites with highly favorable K/Rb ratios (below 30 and as low as 14) and mineralogy within the Pontax trend (area C in Figure 1) within over 90 pegmatite outcrops where the largest visible outcrop measures approximately 200 by 50 meters. These high priority targets neighbor one potential spodumene showing controlled by BRW. This corridor continues to the southwest where it hosts Cygnus Metals’ Pontax Lithium Project and Li-FT Power’s Pontax Project.
