Loyal Lithium Limited (ASX: LLI) has initiated a comprehensive exploration programme at its recently acquired Hidden Lake Lithium Project, with 315 untested individual outcrops identified via high-resolution satellite imagery. These untested pegmatite targets are in addition to the four main spodumene rich dykes, which have a drill and channel tested cumulative strike length of 2,250m, and remain open along strike and depth. Dahrouge Geological Consulting (DGC) has been engaged as lead geological consultant to conduct the field works. Airborne surveys, LIDAR survey and a High-Resolution Aeromagnetic/Radiometric and Orthophoto survey, will also be conducted, aiming to identify additional drill targets ahead of Loyal’s 3,300m drill program scheduled for the upcoming Canadian Winter.
Loyal Lithium’s managing director, Mr Adam Ritchie, commented: “It’s been a pleasure to spend some valuable time in Yellowknife over the last few months and meet so many passionate locals. Sharing the Loyal Lithium story and vision ahead of this exploration programme has provided us with a great opportunity to understand the history and status of the Yellowknife region. We look forward to working with the First Nations as well as all other levels of the local community to uncover the potential of the Hidden Lake Lithium Project and lithium in the Northwest Territories,”
“With the first phase of our exploration program now underway, we can immediately see the potential of this underexplored project. The impressive historical metallurgical results are likely a product of the metasediment geological setting, with simple minerology resulting in large spodumene crystals throughout the pegmatites.”
