ASX Release
5 April 2023
DART MINING DRILLING INTERSECTS LCT PEGMATITE FROM 77.6M
Dart Mining NL (ASX:DTM) (“Dart Mining” or “the Company”) has commenced diamond drilling of LithiumCaesium-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 (Figure 1).
-
Drilling is currently underway on the first diamond drill hole at the Eagle Dyke with pegmatite intersected from 77.6m down hole with a planned hole depth of 250m (Photograph 1).
-
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

Dorchap Lithium Project Summary
Dart Mining geologists first identified the lithium prospectivity of pegmatite dykes in the Dorchap Range in 2016 and set about acquiring exploration leases across the region ( Dart ASX May 2016 ; Dart ASX August 2016 ). These are the first recorded lithium pegmatites identified in Victoria, and are believed to have been sourced from the nearby Mount Wills Granite. A regional sampling program consisting of 826 samples has identified a strong fractionation trend across the Dorchap Range, resolving a 20×12 km zone of strongly fractionated pegmatites bearing enriched Li, Cs, Ta, Be and Sn mineralisation ( Dart ASX July 2021 ).

About Dart Mining
Dart Mining (ASX: DTM) has the aim of evaluating and developing several historic goldfields, as well as substantiating a new porphyry province in Northeast Victoria. The area is prospective for precious, base, and strategic metals. These include Lithium, Gold, Silver, Copper, Molybdenum, Zinc, Tungsten, Tin, Tantalum, and a host of other important minerals. Dart Mining has built a strategically placed gold exploration footprint in the Central and Northeast regions of Victoria, where historic surface and alluvial gold mining indicates the existence of potentially significant gold endowment.
