- Historic Drill Holes: Over 190 historic drill holes are expected to accelerate the project's development.
Australian Projects
- Geophysical Surveys: Gravity surveys have been completed at the Yumbarra and Fowler projects in South Australia.
- Target Identification: Based on new gravity data and existing aeromagnetic and VTEM survey data, prospective drill targets for nickel, copper, and PGE have been identified.
- Drilling Plans: Planning for drilling operations has commenced, following the post-quarter announcement of the uranium potential at the Fowler project.
Salt Wells Lithium-Borate Project in Nevada, USA
- Survey Completion: Gravity surveys have been finished, with the data set to be integrated with existing historical geophysical and geological data.
- MT Survey: A planned Magneto-Telluric (MT) survey aims to map aquifers hosting potentially lithium-bearing brines.
