Venus Metals has launched an RC drilling program at new targets at its wholly owned Youanmi lithium project in WA’s Murchison region, about 480km north-east of Perth.
The drilling will test lithium soil and rock chip anomalies for pegmatite-hosted lithium-caesium-tantalum, or “LCT” mineralisation in the bedrock.
The company was encouraged from assays of 158 soil samples, 40m by 80m spacing, collected as part of a regional reconnaissance geochemical program together with three rock chip samples from the sub-cropping pegmatites.
