J.C. St-Amour, President of Infinite Ore commented, "This property acquisition enhances our land position in a burgeoning lithium camp. We are pleased to be able to provide our shareholders with exposure to lithium, gold and base metals exploration through our Jackpot and Eastern Vision properties."

The claims contain lithium showings based on historical work including a pegmatite dyke that ranges in thickness up to 14 m and has been traced intermittently for 427 m. The core of the dyke was sampled in 1956 and was found to average 1.5% Li2O over a 122 m strike having widths up to 9 m.
