Aurumin (AUN) has completed a four-hole diamond drill run at its Mt Palmer lithium project in Western Australia.

The run targeted lithium-bearing pegmatites, drilling for a total of 994 metres.

Samples are currently being prepared for delivery to assay laboratories.

“We are pleased to have completed drilling and look forward to updating the market with the results,” AUN Managing Director Brad Valiukas said.

Mr Valiukas described the drill run at Mt Palmer as “unfinished business” for the company.

“Mt Palmer is prospective for lithium mineralisation and has been unfinished business for the company since we announced results from orientation drilling in June last year.”

Geotechnical experts are currently working on the logging of the drill cores, with the drilling program guided by early geochemical testing.

Aurumin shares last traded at 2.7 cents.
