Dart Mining commenced diamond drilling of their Lithium- Caesium-Tantalum (LCT) bearing pegmatites in an initial 3,000m Phase 1 diamond drill program, testing five pegmatite targets along the northern portion of the Dorchap Lithium Project.

  • Drilling iunderway on the first diamond drill hole at the Eagle Dyke with pegmatite intersected from 77.6m down the hole with a planned hole depth of 250m.
  • Rock chip highlights from Eagle Dyke: 10m @ 0.9% Li2O and duplicate sample 10m @ 1.0% Li2O
  • The Dorchap Lithium project is fully funded by Dart Mining’s joint-venture partner, Sociedad Química y Minera (SQM), under a A$12m / 6-year earn-in agreement.

Chairman, James Chirnside commented: We are working closely with our joint venture partner SQM to efficiently progress the drilling of these LCT pegmatite targets, and at the same time  maintaining rock chip sampling crews in the field, who are mapping and sampling additional LiDAR pegmatite targets
