Infinity Mining (ASX:IMI) reports that it has received its Programme of Works (PoW) approval to launch a maiden reverse circulation (RC) drilling program at its 100% owned Tambourah South Lithium Project in Western Australia.
The upcoming RC drilling campaign, comprising 25 RC drillholes for 2,500m, has been approved by the Western Australian Department of Mines Industry Regulations and Safety (DMIRS) and will target identified staked pegmatite units to determine the depth of the exposures.
Addressing the drilling campaign, Infinity Mining CEO Joe Groot stated: “All field work and government approvals are now in place for Infinity to test the surface outcrops for deeper Lithium mineralisation on the Tambourah South Tenement.
“All field work and government approvals are now in place”
The Tambourah South drilling campaign will follow the release of over 200 rock chip samples we are endeavouring to fast track through the assay laboratory.
The combination of assay rock sample results and the planned drilling program have the potential to significantly enhance this project both in terms of scale and prospectivity.”
The company also notes that recently conducted field exploration, including pegmatite surface mapping and sampling, demonstrate evidence of a spodumene rich lithium system at the Tambourah South tenement.
In addition, the identified pegmatites have been observed at surface, with a stack of units of up to 30 metres wide being the initial targets for the maiden drilling program.
The Tambourah South Lithium Project is located within the east Pilbara region of Western Australia and covers a total land tenure of 15.92km-square, with Infinity Mining owning 100% of all associated tenements.
The project is host to lithium bearing pegmatites within various rock types that have returned positive and promising results, including up to 1.47% Li2O, as well as gold, copper, and nickel mineralisation.
With approval for commencement of the maiden RC drilling campaign now delivered, Infinity Mining announces that it has moved forward with the completion of a cultural heritage survey to support ground disturbances around the initial drilling target areas.
