Frontier Lithium Provides Additional Drilling Results Indcicating Bolt Pegmatite Is Up to 75M Wide
Surficial detailed mapping at Bolt is currently underway and includes channel sampling. Access in the area is hindered by underbush and deciduous regrowth in the overburden regions of the pegmatite and mafic exposures. Initial results are encouraging extending the surficial pegmatite outcroppings southwest above drillhole intersections
As previously reported, there may be continuity between the Bolt pegmatite and the Spark deposit located 200m to the NW, but that continuity is undetermined and will require additional drilling. Bolt mineralization currently extends to within 100m of the Spark pitshell. The pegmatite appears to be cutoff along strike to the southeast but remains open at depth. Pegmatitic intersections in DDH PL-111-23 and PL-112-23 with horizontal widths of 75 and 60m respectively, are encouraging and correspond to the recent surficial mapping. A series of widely spaced single condemnation holes were drilled mainly in areas of planned infrastructure, including the region between PAK and Bolt, to confirm the absence of mineralized pegmatites near surface. The drill program encompassed three drillholes at Spark, drilled in late March and concluded in July, with a fourth drill hole spanning 550 meters. The primary focus of these endeavors was to explore the western extension of the Spark pegmatite. Spodumene-bearing pegmatite was intersected in all holes. The Phase XIII drilling is now complete for the year as assays results continue to come in.
