Ultra Lithium Sampled Up to 1270 Ppm Lithium at Salar Laguna Verde in Catamarca Argentina
21 Febrero 2018 - 8:00AM
Ultra Lithium Inc. (TSX-V:ULI) (“ULI” or “the Company”) has
received complete assay results of the second round of sampling
work carried out in December 2017 on the Salar Laguna Verde
Discovery Zone in Catamarca Province, Argentina.
Assay
results indicate lithium values in the range of 34.2 to 1,270
milligrams per liter (mg/L) or parts per million (ppm), magnesium
values less than one ppm to 7,920 ppm, potassium 804 ppm to 15,800
ppm, and boron 65.5 to 2,190 ppm. The Laguna Verde area is marked
by low magnesium to lithium ratios, in the range of zero to
10.2.
Highlights:
- Lithium values up to 1270 ppm, potassium 15,800 ppm
(1.58%), and boron up to 2,190 ppm.
- Fourteen samples in the central part of the Salar have
lithium values greater than 500 ppm.
- Average values of lithium in all samples is 526 ppm,
boron 673 ppm, magnesium 1,916 ppm, potassium 7211 ppm and sodium
86,081 ppm.
- Average magnesium to lithium ratio is 3, a very
favourable factor for shorter evaporation time and potential lower
lithium carbonate production costs.
Dr. Weiguo Lang, CEO of Ultra Lithium, stated
that, “We are very pleased with the success of our Argentinian
exploration work to date. The Company is planning to commence
geophysical surveys in the coming weeks. We will also
commence evaporation process testing of lithium brines. These are
the next big steps in moving the Laguna Verde Discovery Zone
project forward.”
A total of 36 samples were collected from
surface and shallow sub-surface brines down to a depth of one meter
or less. Hand tools, such as hammers, and shovels were used to
break the surface salt / sediment layers to access the
brines. Brine samples were collected in clean plastic bottles
which were rinsed with brine before sampling. Field parameters of
each sample were recorded which include: depth of water table from
surface, total dissolved solids, temperature, conductivity,
salinity, pH, and density. All samples were shipped to SGS
Laboratories in Buenos Aires, while four duplicate samples were
sent to Alex Stewart Laboratories in Jujuy, Argentina which were
reported in December 22, 2017 news release. Two field blank and
three field duplicate samples were also shipped to SGS as part of
quality assurance and quality control purposes. SGS is a global
chain of independent certified laboratories. The samples were
assayed by SGS method ME. 113 based on SM 3120, 23rd Edition.
Qualified PersonThe technical
information contained in this news release has been reviewed and
approved by Afzaal Pirzada, P.Geo., a qualified person, as defined
by NI 43-101 who works as Vice President Exploration of the
Company.
