Green Technology Metals Hits High Grade Spodumene at Root Project
THE DRILL SERGEANT: Green Technology Metals (ASX: GT1) rported the first assay results from the McCombe deposit within the company’s 100 per cent-owned Root project in north-west Ontario, Canada.
The Root project is located approximately 200 kilomteres west of Green Technology’s Seymour project.
The Root drilling is initially focussed on the McCombe LCT pegmatite system to delineate a maiden Mineral Resource.
Assays have been received for the first nine holes from the Phase 1 diamond drilling including:
RL-22-001
12.4 metres at 1.77 per cent lithium oxide (Li2O) from 11.8m;
RL-22-002
15.3m at 1.2 per cent Li2O from 42.2m, including 10.8 at 1.65 per cent Li2O;
RL-22-003
11.5m at 2.03 per cent Li2O from 72m;
RL-22-006
9.5m at 1.54 per cent Li2O from 21.7m;
RL-22-007
9.8m at 1.51 per cent Li2O from 64.9m, including 8m at 1.81 per cent Li2O; and
RL-22-008
8.8m at 1.8 per cent Li2O from 71.5m, including 8m at 1.94 per cent Li2O.
“Because Root hasn’t been properly explored since 1950, substantial opportunity exists to undertake systematic and modern exploration of this tenure,” Green Technology Metals executive officer Luke Cox said in the company’s ASX announcement.
“These initial assay results and intercept thicknesses from McCombe are outstanding, and together with mapping of new untested pegmatites, clearly justify the ramping up of our drilling and broader activities at Root over the coming months.”
