Join us as we speak with Phil Thomas, Executive Chairman at Patagonia Lithium (ASX:PL3), to explore the latest updates from the Formentera Lithium Project in Argentina’s Lithium Triangle and discuss key developments in drilling, brine testing, and geological interpretation.
Key topics discussed:
- First packer brine extraction test from 98–104m depth at well JAM 25-05, including flow rate (1,286 L/hr), specific gravity readings, and conductivity results.
- Geological and lithological insights from early core samples—high-porosity sands, volcaniclastic components, gypsum occurrences, and implications for lithium-bearing brines at greater depths.
- Upcoming fieldwork, including deeper drilling to 600m, additional packer tests, core porosity analyses, and planned seismic and gamma porosity surveys ahead of a future mineral resource estimate update.
About the guest and company:
