VANCOUVER — Ultra Lithium Inc. and North Canada Lithium Corp. have started exploration work which includes trenching, channel and bulk sampling, metallurgical testwork and diamond drilling at the Forgan Lake Lithium Property in northwestern Ontario

The trenching and sampling work has already been started and a 3,000-metre core drilling contract has been signed with Quebec-based Diafore Drilling Inc. who is preparing for mobilizing to the property, states a release. The drilling will be a combination of NQ and HQ size core drilling and the contract can be extended through mutual agreement.
