    Galan Lithium identifies conductive brines over 154 metres at Candelas Lithium Brine Project

    01:33 10 Apr 2019
    High conductivity levels ranged from 183 to more than 200 mS/cm with geophysics and further sampling being undertaken.

    The fourth drill hole, C-04-19 will be drilled soon

    Galan Lithium Ltd (ASX:GLN) has identified highly conductive brines over 154 metres in the third drill hole, C-03-19 at the Candelas Lithium Brine Project southeast of Hombre Muerto salar in Argentina.

    The drill hole was completed at 430 metres after encountering fractured basement at 398 metres about 2.5 kilometres south of the maiden drill hole (C-01-19).
    The geological sequence largely replicates that observed in the maiden drill hole, comprising a thick layer of ignimbrite lying below surficial alluvial cover.

    The hole then encountered a sequence of sands and clays hosting salty waters, which at about 276 metres turned to brines hosted within a permeable breccia conglomerate and from 398 metres within fractured basement.

    The company plans to case the hole and conduct geophysical logging and further sampling of the brine.
    Following this work, the rig will be moved to a new location to undertake drilling of the fourth drill hole as the company awaits the permitting for further drill holes at Candelas beyond the initial five holes approved by the Catamarcan authorities.
