Battery Age Minerals Ltd (ASX: BM8) has made an excellent start to its maiden summer fieldwork programme at the company’s Falcon Lake Lithium Project in Ontario, Canada with a significant early discovery made by the fieldwork team.
Surface mineralization has now been confirmed across the entire 5km length of the property following the discovery of outcrop R23FL-PS06, which contains 15-20% visible spodumene1 and is located on the eastern extent of the previously unexplored 2.5km prospective corridor.
Hights from the fieldwork programme include the discovery of pegmatite outcrop hosting 15-20% visible spodumene at the eastern extent of the Falcon Lake Project has extended the prospective mineralized corridor at the project to 5km.
Additionally, the company has discovered nine new pegmatites, including five containing visible spodumene ranging from 5 to 20% content.
The Summer fieldwork programme only commenced 11 days ago with the BM8 exploration team continuing to deploy systematic techniques to uncover additional high-priority drilling targets over the coming weeks.
Battery Age managing director Gerard O’Donovan commented: “This is an exciting development, particularly coming so early in the summer fieldwork programme. Summer is the time when we are able to conduct extensive fieldwork to expand the scale of the Project by unearthing highly prospective new pegmatite targets for follow-up drilling.
“This significant discovery on the eastern flank of the project has confirmed that the prospective mineralised corridor extends for at least another 2.5km, giving us confidence in the scale of the system we may have at Falcon Lake.
“We will continue to explore and define additional high-priority targets to strengthen our drilling pipeline into the future.” The data collected from these additional summer fieldwork activities will play a pivotal role in identifying other potential exploration targets and will assist in prioritizing them for upcoming drilling campaigns.
