Global Lithium Resources Limited (ASX: GL1) has commenced CY2023 exploration activities across its wholly-owned Marble Bar Lithium Project (MBLP) in Western Australia.
MBLP has demonstrated there are multiple prospective lithium bearing corridors potentially as large as the current Archer resource area still to be explored. This year’s exploration programs are based on findings from the CY2022 programme with up to 20,000m of drilling to be used to explore the lithium and gold targets across MBLP.
Two-Stage Exploration Strategy
Firstly, exploration drilling will continue to test and expand known lithium mineralized areas and prospective lithium corridors that were identified in the CY2022 exploration programme. These lithium corridors are spread out along a prospective strike length of 25km and up to 16,000m of RC drilling has been planned to explore the lithium bearing potential of these areas with provisions in place to extend this programme further if required, based on results.
Secondary, a Reverse Circulation (RC) drilling programme of up to 4,000m will be completed on the Twin Veins Gold and base metal anomaly 13km to the north of the Archer Lithium Deposit.
The drilling will commence once the Dipole Dipole Induced Polarisation (DDIP) Electromagnetic survey has been completed. This DDIP survey will highlight any chargeable anomalies that will be the subject of this year’s targeted exploration programme.
“I am pleased GL1 has commenced the CY2023 exploration programme at the wholly-owned Marble Bar Lithium Project,” General Manager Exploration, Stuart Peterson, said.
“We have only explored about 6km of the projected 25km lithium prospective strike length, so I believe that MBLP could hold additional lithium discoveries as we progress exploration further.
“Also, being able to explore the potential of the Twin Veins gold and base metal anomaly in this year’s programme is very exciting and I look forward to providing regular updates as results become available.”
