Power Metals Corp. (TSXV: PWM) has intersected high-grade Li, Cs and Ta (Lithium, Cesium and Tantalum) mineralisation on the West Joe Dyke and Li and Ta mineralisation on the Main Dyke, Case Lake property, Cochrane, Ontario.
“These fantastic drill results continue to impress our strong geological team. Drilling is ongoing and we are extremely excited for the next round of assays to be received from the lab,” Chairman and CEO, Johnathan More, said.
The lithium mineralisation is mainly spodumene, but also lepidolite at West Joe and is spodumene on the Main Dyke. Cesium mineralisation is pollucite at West Joe and Ta mineralization is Ta-oxides at West Joe and Main Dykes.
- 1.11 % Li2O (lithium), 2.15 % Cs2O (cesium) and 365.46 ppm Ta (tantalum) over 6.84 m, PWM-22-128 (Figure 1)
- 1.28 % Li2O, 6.53 % Cs2O and 324.0 ppm Ta over 1.0 m, PWM-22-128
- 1.75 % Li2O, 0.06 % Cs2O and 221.0 ppm Ta over 1.0 m, PWM-22-129
- 1.74 % Li2O, 0.01 % Cs2O, 197.0 ppm Ta over 0.79 m, PWM-22-130.
Drill hole PWM-22-131 intersected biotite-rich metasedimentary host rock with elevated Li, Rb and Cs contents from 45.89-47.30 m, 1.41m interval with 0.49 % Li2O, 3094 ppm Rb and 0.47 % Cs2O. This metasomatized host rock can be used as a pathfinder to locate blind pegmatites on the property.
Assay highlights on Main Dyke include;
- 1.71 % Li2O and 240.77 ppm Ta over 12.0 m, PWM-22-132.
- 1.20 % Li2O and 218.68 ppm Ta over 19.0 m, PWM-22-133.
Power Metals’ 2022 summer drill programME is for 5,000 m and over 2,000 m has been completed to date. This press release reports assays received to date from drill hole PWM-22-128 to 131 on the West Joe Dyke and drill holes PWM-22-132 and 133 on the Main Dyke. The purpose of each drill hole was to infill on known mineralisation to aid in a future resource estimate.
