Atlantic Lithium Limited (AIM: ALL | ASX: A11 | OTCQX: ALLIF), the African-focused lithium exploration and development company targeting to deliver Ghana’s first lithium mine, has received further assay results from its resource and exploration drilling programme at the Ewoyaa lithium project, Ghana, West Africa.
5,444m of infill and exploration reverse circulation (RC) drilling has been completed at Ewoyaa as part of the broader 18,500m 2023 planned drilling programme.
Executive chairman of Atlantic Lithium, Neil Herbert, commented, “We are pleased to report ongoing drilling assay results across the Ewoyaa lithium project, which have returned high-grade infill and extension intersections. These include some significant apparent widths and grades from relatively shallow depths,”
“Results are from the Ewoyaa South-2 deposit, where we are infill drilling to convert inferred to indicated resources to provide optionality for future mine scheduling, and from the Ewoyaa North-East deposit, where mineralization has been confirmed outside of the current resource envelope and at depth.”
Multiple high-grade drill intersections included highlights at a 0.4% Li2O cut-off, and a maximum 4m of internal dilution of:
- GRC0928: 23m at 1.75% Li2O from 184m
- GRC0911: 15m at 1.3% Li2O from 68m
- GRC0911: 14m at 1.27% Li2O from 48m
- GRC0927: 9m at 1.57% Li2O from 263m
- GRC0912: 14m at 0.99% Li2O from 6m
- GRC0910: 11m at 1.22% Li2O from 65m
- GRC0914: 13m at 0.97% Li2O from 96m
- GRC0935: 10m at 1.22% Li2O from 202m
- GRC0918: 9m at 1.33% Li2O from 94m
- GRC0915: 11m at 0.98% Li2O from 106m
Mr. Herbert continued, “A total of 18,500m of infill, extensional and exploration RC drilling has been planned for 2023. These programmes are intended to grow and improve the confidence of the Ewoyaa resource, in turn, improving the economics of the project.”
