SAN JORGE: Lithium Brine Project, Argentina
==> picture [126 x 46] intentionally omitted <==
Location of the San Jorge lithium brine project
The San Jorge project[13, 15] consists of 15 granted Exploration Licenses (EL’s) covering some 36,000 hectares inclusive of the San Francisco Salar which covers some 2,800 hectares.
The San Jorge project has several key compelling characteristics including:
-
Well developed evaporite surface in the far north and northwest of the salar
-
In other parts of the Salar salt crust is present between areas of the volcanic ash/sand/silt/clay cover on the surface of the Salt Lake. Halite is present in the West and central part of the Salt Lake.
-
The nucleus of the salt lake, where it is anticipated lithium brine will be most concentrated is likely to be the centre of the salar or in the south as it appears the most significant surface inflows may be from the north towards the salt lake.

Tenure Map of the San Jorge lithium brine project
Planning an aggressive program for the balance of 2021.
The proposed program over the initial six months of exploration will consist of:
-
A passive seismic geophysical across the salar to define the thickness of the salar sediments and to target drilling and assist future resource estimation;
-
Electrical geophysics to map the extent of the brine body extending under gravel units around the salar;
-
Shallow auger drilling and pit sampling to collect brine samples for assaying, to determine the shallow concentrations of lithium and other elements; and
-
Possible targeted deeper drilling to obtain brine samples for evaluation of brine chemistry and to confirm the porosity and permeability characteristics to evaluate possible future production conditions.

MATERIAL TESTING AND QUALIFICATION
Product quality test results as per previous ASX announcements:
Tests confirm Concentrates as Industry Benchmark[5]
”Results concluded that the Graphmada concentrates are highly suitable for foundries, crucible and refractory applications due to their exceptional flake size, high resistance against oxidation, low LOI at 4200C, no carbonates, a very low Sulphur (SO3) content, and exhibit favorable flake ash melting temperatures.”
Test confirm Industry Leading Expandability for Graphmada[6]
“Expandability tests across all flake sizes delivered excellent results, with the maximum expansion volume of 510 cm3/g achieved with extremely large flakes > 400 microns. These results exceed typical concentrates currently available.”
Excellent Lithium-ion battery feedstock test results[7]
“Independent test work demonstrates Graphmada graphite concentrates as highly suitable for lithium-ion battery applications with a very high purity of 99.99 wt.% carbon achieved. All analyzed parameters including bulk density, tap density and surface area (BET) are similar to typical spherical graphite products in the market and meet leading battery anode manufacturer specifications.
Update - Advanced Materials[10]
“From premium, large flake graphite concentrates supplied from the Company’s wholly owned Graphmada Mining Complex, Urbix’s purification process delivered outstanding purification results exceeding 99.9% for >180 micron graphite flake and 99.7% for >300 microns graphite flake, with key deleterious elements all well below industry requirements.”

In 2019 the Company, with an extensive data set of historical exploration, announced a brownfields Exploration Target estimate of 86146 Million tonnes between 4-6% Total Graphitic Carbon (TGC), in accordance with the JORC Code (2012).
This Exploration Target is in addition to an already substantial regolith hosted large flake graphite Mineral Resource of 20.2 Mt @ at 4% TGC, estimated in accordance with the JORC Code (2012).
Important Notes:
An Exploration Target is a statement or estimate of the exploration potential of a mineral deposit in a defined geological setting where the statement or estimate, quoted as a range of tonnes and a range of grade, relates to mineralization for which there has been insufficient exploration to estimate a Mineral Resource. The potential quantity and grade of the Exploration Target is conceptual in nature, there has been insufficient exploration to estimate an additional Mineral Resource and it is uncertain if further exploration will result in the estimation of an additional Mineral Resource.
The Company confirms that it is not aware of any new information or data that materially affects the information in the relevant ASX releases and the form and context of the announcement has not materially changed. The Company confirms that the form and context in which the Competent Persons findings are presented have not been materially modified from the original market announcements.
