I know i'm not Pal but here are the things to look forward to in the coming months. In regards to management ramping up, PR previously was one of the few criticisms some holders had of DC, in saying that the bloke is a geo and doesn't mind getting his hands dirty and donning the fluro and knows what he's doing. @galaxy1
Marvis Lake Lithium Project
Drilling to identify new, and further define known, spodumene occurrences. Work programs are scheduled to start in June 2016
Phillips River Lithium Project
Following the grant of the tenements, expected during the third quarter of 2016, work programs are likely to include:
Further multi‐element geochemistry to constrain what are presently large, open targets;
Aeromagnetic surveys. Pegmatites are much less magnetic when compared to the host mafic volcanic country rocks;
Mapping within resultant targets. Much of the tenement area has been cleared for cropping, making access easy; and
Drilling following the grant of the tenements.
Donnelly Lithium Project
Following the grant of the tenements, expected during the third quarter of 2016, work programs are likely to include:
Multi‐element geochemistry initially along the numerous forestry tracks to confirm and constrain the current, anomalous regolith samples;
Aeromagnetic surveys. Pegmatites are much less magnetic when compared to the host mafic volcanic country rocks; and
Mapping where creeks have incised the lateritic mantle to generate drill targets
Pioneer Dome Lithium Project
Pioneer’s initial evaluation will consist of soil geochemistry programs, with priority orientation samples taken over targets referred to as PEG004, PEG006, PEG009 and PEG012 to provide base‐line information. This will establish thresholds for lithium by chemical analysis, plus rubidium and niobium (pathfinder elements likely to be detectable using a pXRF). Concurrently, old drill holes will have pegmatite intervals re‐sampled and assayed for lithium. The proposed soil geochemistry program will see 4,000 samples taken, with initial assays expected before the end of May 2016.
ACRA Gold Project
Pioneer is progressively evaluating targets in a sequence reflecting the priority attributed to each, and accordingly, further drilling is scheduled later this year at Kalpini South. Planned work programs include:
Soil geochemistry: In‐house programs provide a quick, cost‐effective means of appraising new ground. 5 targets are currently scheduled for sampling within the Acra Project area;
Aircore drilling: Programs target geochemical and structural targets on an iterative basis. Infill drilling improves definition of anomalies prior to more expensive RC and diamond core drilling;
RC drilling: Used to target supergene mineralisation at the Kalpini South Prospect;
Diamond core drilling: Will further test the Kalpini South Prospect for high grade gold lode ‘down plunge’ of the known gold mineralisation; and
RC drilling: Programs will follow up aircore drilling program results, where warranted
