CV13 Pegmatite
Best drill hole of 2023 program at the CV13 Spodumene Pegmatite.
28.7 m at 1.49% Li2O, including 20.4 m at 2.03% Li2O (CV23-311).
Represents new zone at shallow depth along the pegmatite’s eastern arm.
Represents area of significant pegmatite stacking.
Continued strong assays from western arm at CV13.
20.2 m at 1.16% Li2O, including 15.4 m at 1.49% Li2O (CV23-324).
Through 2023, the CV13 Spodumene Pegmatite has been traced by drilling over an approximate 2.3 km strike length and remains open along strike at both ends and to depth.
Core assay results are reported herein for the remaining 20 drill holes completed in 2023 at CV13.
An updated mineral resource estimate (“MRE”) for the Corvette Project, including both the CV5 and CV13 spodumene pegmatites, is planned for Q3 2024. The MRE update will focus on an increase in confidence from the inferred to indicated categories for CV5, as well as a maiden estimate for CV13.
CV9 Pegmatite
Wide intervals of variably mineralized spodumene-bearing pegmatite intersected in maiden drill program at the CV9 Spodumene Pegmatite.
99.9 m at 0.39% Li2O, including 30.6 m at 0.80% Li2O (CV23-345).
15.7 m at 0.76% Li2O, including 10.8 m at 1.00% Li2O (CV23-267).
17.9 m at 0.69% Li2O, including 8.6 m at 1.03% Li2O (CV23-310).
7.7 m at 1.35% Li2O (CV23-333).
The CV9 Pegmatite remains open along strike and at depth, with true widths of
