Further Catalysts
Diamond drill rig to mobilise late September. Initial plan for 20 holes (for 2,000m) to test known pegmatitic bodies for spodumene and tantalum, and test spodumene values. Torque recently completed its first diamond drilling program at Paris and Observation prospects, which confirmed the existence of high-grade gold mineralised zones in all four drillholes. Up to 185 g/t Au. Diamond core samples are currently undergoing metallurgical analysis, Gold results are anticipated to be available in the coming weeks.
Further Positives
‘Visual inspection on initial site visits clearly identifies the presence of spodumene-rich pegmatites, some containing tantalite. Stockpiles of this material are present on site.’Initial rock chips(up to 6.092%) were taken with the aim of confirming the presence of spodumene and thus lithium. (Pure spodumene contains 8.03% 2 )
