Loyal Lithium has discovered multiple Spodumene Bearing Pegmatite Dykes Discovered at the Trieste Lithium Project, James Bay, Canada.
The exciting find of five spodumene-bearing pegmatite dykes aligned implied continuous outcrops, have been identified within a 6 km2 area to the south of the Trieste Greenstone Belt, situated in a metasediment host – leaving several high-value greenstone targets yet to be explored.
Loyal Lithium remains the single largest landholder within the highly prospective Trieste Greenstone Belt, with a land position of 251 km2.
Drilling activities are being bolstered and will commence with the existing in-field team from Dahrouge Geological Consulting (DGC) increasing to 19 field crew.
The field program will also be enhanced to include additional tasks such as channel sampling, LiDAR surveys and high-resolution geophysics.
Excitingly discovery marks the first occurrence along the Trieste Greenstone Belt outside of the known spodumene-bearing pegmatites of WinsomeResources’’ (WR1) Adina-Jamar discovery, located only 14km to the west.
Loyal Lithium Managing Director Adam Ritchie attributes its early exploration success to the comprehensive winter program that informed the design of the ongoing field operations.
“These discoveries are a true credit to the Loyal Lithium team and partners,”Mr Ritchie said.
“We are passionate about Lithium and on a mission to play a part in the North American Lithium supply chain.
“Although still very early, we are excited by the potential of this fertile area south of the Trieste greenstone. The discovery of five spodumene-rich dykes gives us great confidence as we accelerate our exploration activities and prepare for drilling” he added.
