Charger Metals’ Post

🚨Lake Johnston Drilling update ⚫️All assay results have been received for the maiden Reverse Circulation (RC) drill programme at the Medcalf West and Mt Gordon Prospects of the Lake Johnston Lithium Project, Western Australia. ⚫️First drill-holes at the Medcalf West Prospect successfully intersected spodumene-bearing pegmatites, including 18m @ 1.46% Li₂O (CLMRC042). ⚫️Next phase of RC drilling expected to commence shortly to test orientation and extensions of Medcalf West and Medcalf spodumene mineralisation, focussing on the area where the two potentially intersect. ⚫️Drilling permits (PoW) have been applied for at the Mt Day Prospect and new priority target areas at the Mt Gordon Prospect, with drilling to commence as soon as approvals are received. Charger’s Managing Director, Aidan Platel, commented: “We were encouraged by the confirmation of spodumene-bearing pegmatites over a significant strike length at the Medcalf West Prospect, particularly given the close proximity of the Medcalf and Medcalf West Prospects. Further drilling is required to better understand the extent, thickness and orientation of this high-grade lithium mineralisation, especially given the significant deformation via folding and faulting events that has occurred in the Medcalf area. With seasonal weather conditions improving, we are preparing for the next phase of drilling at Medcalf and Medcalf West and, subject to finalising the planned programme with RTX, we expect to start that drilling in the coming weeks. We have also applied for drill permits at priority targets at both Mt Gordon and Mt Day, and look forward to drilling those targets as soon as the requisite approvals are received.” 🗞️Read the full ASX announcement here: https://lnkd.in/gnuDzA78 #CHR #ChargerMetals #lithium #WesternAustralia #exploration #ASXNews
