Wildcat Resources Reports Further Tabba Tabba Lithium Hits

THE DRILL SERGEANT: Wildcat Resources (ASX: WC8) reported the second batch of assay results from the opening drilling program at the company’s Tabba Tabba lithium project in Western Australia.

Wildcat Resources has received assay results from a further 32 RC holes of the program, claiming them to confirm Tabba Tabba hosts multiple pegmatite clusters containing high-grade lithium mineralisation over broad and continuous intervals.

Best results from drilling at the Leia Pegmatite in the project’s Central Cluster included:

TARC131
52 metres at 1.3 per cent lithium oxide (Li2O) from 117m (est. true width);

TARC024
35m at 1.5 per cent Li2O from 200m (est. true width) within 53m at 1 per cent Li2O from 190m; and

TARC088
68m at 1 per cent Li2O from surface (down hole length).

Best results from The Hutt Pegmatite in the Northern Cluster included:

TAR082
16m at 1.3 per cent Li2O from 39m (est. true width) within 22m at 1 per cent Li2O from 37m.

Wildcat explained the Leia Pegmatite to be greater than 1.5km in strike length, has true widths over 130m wide, and remains open along strike and at depth.

The company added that adjacent parallel bodies (Chewy and Boba Pegmatites) add to the scale potential of the Central Cluster.

Wildcat has now commenced diamond drilling at the Leia Pegmatite, targeting dip and plunge extensions of thickest lithium zones.

“The second batch of assay results reinforces our belief that we are onto a terrific lithium discovery at Tabba Tabba,” Wildcat Resources managing director Samuel Ekins said in the company’s ASX announcement.

“The system is showing it has significant scale, we are seeing impressive intersections at multiple locations and the central pegmatite cluster seems to be getting better with depth.

“We are very excited about the potential and look forward to more results as we continue to aggressively explore the project.”
