Aruma Resources Confirms Mt Deans Lithium and Rubidium Grades
THE DRILL SERGEANT: Aruma Resources (ASX: AAJ) released first assay results from a recently completed drilling program at the company’s Mt Deans lithium-rubidium project near Norseman in Western Australia.
Aruma Resources carried out broad spaced drilling and surface sampling that identified a thick vertical sequence of lithium and high-grade rubidium bearing pegmatites over a strike length of about 1.5 kilometres.
The company declared assays have confirmed high lithium and rubidium grades from the first two holes received of:
MDRC11
7 metres at 2.03 per cent lithium and rubidium (Li2O+Rb2O) from 26m; and
MDRC09
9m at 1.23 per cent Li2O+Rb2O from 32m and 5m at 1.05 per cent Li2O+Rb2O from 45m.
“The program extended the lithium and high-grade rubidium intersected in the thick vertical pegmatite in Aruma’s first phase of drilling in the central part of the project area, and a subsequent rock chip sampling program,” the company said in its ASX announcement.
