Green Technology Metals Limited (ASX: GT1) continues to expand its flagship Seymour Lithium Project in Ontario, Canada, with positive new diamond drilling results.
“These intercepts significantly increase the targeted mineralised volumes in these areas of North Aubry, with the original interpretations suggesting much narrower thicknesses. Our drilling focus at Seymour now moves to testing for lateral repeats of the North Aubry deposit to the north and drilling the multiple mapped pegmatite targets across the Pye Complex. We are also gearing up for commencement of drilling at the Root Project, with known high-grade pegmatites ready for targeted resource definition drilling and Mineral Resource estimation.”
Further extensional intercepts at North Aubry
Diamond drilling has continued at the North Aubry deposit of GT1’s flagship Seymour Project since recommencement in June.
The sustained focus of drilling at North Aubry has been further expansion of the deposit dimensions, both along strike to the north and with further down dip extensions.
Hole GTDD-22-0323, which stepped out 60 metres northwest of the nearest previous hole, intersected two spodumene-bearing pegmatite intervals from 217.9m and 377.9m downhole with major intercepts of:
• 6.0m @ 1.37% Li2O (from 218.9m to 225.0m); and
• 3.6m @ 2.08% Li2O (from 378.3m to 382.0m).
These intersections were thicker than modelled and increases the mineralised volumes in this targeted strike extension of the North Aubry deposit.
Hole GTDD-22-0128 was completed approximately 230m down dip of hole GTDD-22-0323 and intersected two spodumene-bearing pegmatites from 252.3m and 312.0m downhole with major intercepts of:
• 2.8m @ 1.48% Li2O (from 253.3m to 256.2m); and
• 3.4m @ 0.86% Li2O (from 322.8m to 326.3m).
Hole GTDD-22-0320, our deepest hole targeting down dip extension intersect spodumene-bearing pegmatite from 458.1m to 468.8m returning 10.7m @ 1.49 % Li2O, highlighting the orebody continues at depth with consistent grade.
Additional exploratory holes have been drilled north-west of North Aubry, intersecting the boundary of the Seymour Syncline and delineating the western extent of the Pillow Basalts which host the pegmatites in the Aubry Complex. This is a key boundary for delineating the corridor for potential pegmatite emplacement.
