Infinity Mining (IMI) has recommenced exploration at its South Tambourah lithium project in Western Australia’s Pilbara region.
The program will aim to identify further lithium-bearing pegmatites and rare earth elements through field mapping and sampling.
The work will follow up on previous high-grade rock chip assays of up to 3.86 per cent lithium oxide, 338.5 parts per million caesium, 174 parts per million niobium, 3013.5 parts per million rubidium and 233.7 parts per million tantalum.
Infinity said the rock chip samples collected from the area also supported the area’s prospectivity.
Ongoing work at Tambourah is also scheduled to involve an ambient noise tomography survey, which will aim to map the pegmatites at depth, identify any pegmatite bodies lying flat and map possible host geology and structures.
“In conjunction with this, we will be doing maiden ground survey work on the newly-acquired South Tambourah E45/5720 which is situated adjacent to E45/4848,” Infinity Mining CEO Joe Groot said.
“This first quarter program for hidden pegmatite units as well as new surface expressions of pegmatite units will guide the second quarter drilling campaign.”
Infinity Mining shares were trading at 18 cents at 10:57 am AEDT.
