Galan Lithium Drills HMW Project Extensions

THE DRILL SERGEANT: Galan Lithium (ASX: GLN) has its latest drilling campaign underway at the company’s 100 per cent-owned Hombre Muerto West lithium project (HMW) located on the Western Basin of the Hombre Muerto salar in Catamarca Province, Argentina.

The first diamond drillhole of the program, PP-02-22, was completed at Pata Pila to a final depth of 450m.

The hole was designed to extend the company’s knowledge in the Pata Pila licence area to enable it to build-out the hydrogeological models required to confirm Reserve estimates at the HMW project.

The drillhole was designed to provide key geological data for testing extension to the existing HMW project Mineral Resource, in both horizontal and vertical dimensions, from the salar limits.

Galan Lithium declared the results from PP-02-22 delivered substantial confirmation of, and further potential upside to, the existing Mineral Resource estimate at the HMW project.

These results are set to be incorporated into an updated Mineral Resource estimate for the HMW project, which is on track for completion during Q3 CY2022.

“This exploration diamond hole has further unlocked the potential of the world-class lithium brine resource held at the HMW project,” Galan Lithium managing director Juan Pablo (JP) Vargas de la Vega said in the company’s ASX announcement.

“The results have enhanced our hydrogeological modelling, a key to confirmation of Reserve estimates, and delivered further Mineral Resource upside at HMW.

“Following the new exploration target areas identified by the recent TEM geophysical survey, we now look forward to aggressively drilling these additional potential HMW Mineral Resource expansion zones from this quarter through the rest of 2022.”
