Battery and advanced materials company Talga Group Ltd (ASX:TLG) has kicked off a new drill programme at the company’s Vittangi Graphite Project in northern Sweden.
The new programme builds on the results from the latest SkyTEM survey and successful 2021 Vittangi drilling.
The 30-hole diamond drillhole program will test the electromagnetic (EM) conductors and JORC exploration targets linking the Company’s Niska South and Niska North resources.
“Talga’s Vittangi Graphite Project is a world-class Tier-1 asset for battery anode production whose scale remains to be fully defined,” Managing Director, Mark Thompson, said.
“We are excited to start drilling the Niska Link prospect to support future expansion options, aligned with our customers’ battery production roadmaps and strong graphite anode demand.”
A revision of Talga’s Vittangi graphite resources, based on the completed 2021 Vittangi drill programme, is already underway and planned for completion in late Q2 2022.
The new drill programme is expected to be completed in May 2022, after which Talga will further revise its graphite resources towards the end of 2022.
The resource revisions aim to expand what is currently Europe’s largest and highest-grade defined graphite mineral resource to support and optimise future anode production expansions. For further information please visit: https://www.talgagroup.com/
