Adit samples deliver high grade lithium in Namibia

Highlights

  • Underground adit sampling at Omaruru Project identifies extensive horizontal intersections of high-grade lithium mineralisation.

  • Best results returned from the adit sampling include:

  • 14m @ 1.21% Li2O (Adit JWA1)

  • 10m @ 1.35% Li2O (Adit JWA1)

  • 8m @ 1.11% Li2O (Adit JWA1)

  • A detailed soil sampling programme at Omaruru also outlines significant geochemical anomalies with characteristic pathfinder signatures for LCT pegmatites.

  • Grid-based surface sampling undertaken in locations along strike from mapped pegmatites and historical workings have generated subsurface extensions and several new positions of potential blind lithium mineralisation.

  • Shallow, walk-up targets have been identified across numerous prospects with scout RC drill testing of these targets scheduled for Q2 2023.

  • Phase 1 earn-in on Omaruru progressing efficiently and expected to be achieved in Q2 2023; Prospect investing US$1m over 12 months to reach initial 40% project interest.

  • Additional drilling is being planned at the Brockmans prospect, where thick, flat-lying, higher-grade lithium intersections were returned from Phase 1 drilling.

Prospect Resources Ltd (ASX: PSC, FRA:5E8) ( Prospect or the Company ) is pleased to provide an update on the results and interpretation of its recently completed, comprehensive surface geochemical soil sampling programme across several prospects at the Omaruru Lithium Project, located approximately 20km east of the regional centre of Karibib, in central Namibia.

Prospect’s Managing Director, Sam Hosack, commented:

“The high-grade lithium results returned from the adit sampling programme at the Karlsbrunn prospect are extremely promising, and underscore the prospectivity of that broad mineralised system.”

“Additionally, a systematic and extensive soil sampling program undertaken across the Omaruru Project has provided the sort of results that we were targeting from this exercise. It is very pleasing to have identified a number of potential ‘under cover’ lithium mineralisation targets for prompt drill testing.”

“The sizeable surface footprint and strong concentration of some of these geochemical anomalies is very encouraging for the prospects of further discoveries in the short term at Omaruru. We now look forward to drilling these targets as part of our upcoming next-phase RC drilling programmes at Omaruru.”

Project Background

The Omaruru Lithium Project, currently comprising the EPL 5533 tenement, is centred on the village of Wilhelmstal, east of Karibib in Namibia and covers 175 square kilometres (see Figure 1). The tenement is located near a number of advanced mining projects, including Osino Resources’ Twin Hills Gold Project and Lepidico’s Karibib Lithium Project.

EPL 5533 contains 60 visible outcropping LCT pegmatites, with historical artisanal workings for gemstones common throughout the tenement and considerable prospectivity for the identification of further lithium-enriched deposits occurring below cover in the region (see Figure 2).

Omaruru offers excellent potential for Prospect to delineate a maiden JORC reportable lithium Mineral Resource and identify new deposits to build a project of sufficient scale, as well as establishing a strategic position in Namibia, providing an attractive growth pipeline in the battery minerals sector and continued investment in a desirable jurisdiction of sub-Saharan Africa.

Prospect currently holds a 20% interest in Omaruru via its equivalent shareholding in Richwing Exploration (Pty) Ltd ( Richwing ), which is 80%-owned by Osino Resources Corp. (OSI.TSXV). Prospect is currently earning a further 20% interest in Richwing (and thus Omaruru) via a Phase 1 investment of US$1m over a 12 month period (refer Prospect ASX Announcement dated 29 September 2022).

Karlsbrunn Adit Sampling

The Company completed detailed sampling of several extensive underground adits at the Karlsbrunn prospect, which pass laterally through the deposit at several locations. These adits were developed historically to extract petalite and gemstones from the pegmatite, including beryl (see Figure 3).

All assay results have now been received and identified extensive horizontal intersections of highgrade lithium mineralisation (as petalite and lepidolite) in numerous locations within the five adits sampled (see Figure 4 below).

This data set will be used to complement the drill hole data, in completing a maiden Mineral Resource estimate for Karlsbrunn later this year.

The highest-grade, horizontal, continuous sections from the adit sampling included:

  • 14m @ 1.21% Li2O (Adit JWA1)

  • 10m @ 1.35% Li2O (Adit JWA1)

  • 8m @ 1.11% Li2O (Adit JWA1)

  • 4m @ 1.73% Li2O (Adit EBA1)

  • 4m @ 1.46% Li2O (Adit EBA1)

  • 5m @ 1.17% Li2O (Adit EBA3)

Geochemical Soil Sampling Programme

Prospect also completed a detailed geochemical soil sampling programme over eight separate grids at the Omaruru Lithium Project in January 2023, with all 1,243 sample assays having now been received, and evaluation and interpretation of the data completed (Figure 5).

The grids were aligned with the general southwest-northeast strike of the geologically mapped LCT pegmatite occurrences and historical artisanal gemstone workings at Omaruru, and designed to identify sub-surface extensions of the previously identified lithium mineralisation (see Figure 6).

The aim was to generate exploratory drill targets over potential buried or “blind” economic, hard rock lithium mineralisation, as is apparent in mapped outcrop elsewhere throughout the Project area.

Figure 6: Regional Soil Geochemical Sample grids targeted during recent campaign

Sample grids are located to the northeast of the Karlsbrunn ore system, southwest of Spirit, southwest of Hillside, southwest and northeast of Brockmans, northeast and southwest of Bergers and southwest of the Petalite prospect.

To the west, the Karlsbrunn NE and Hillside SW soil grids show very strong, cohesive and concordant lithium (Li), beryllium (Be), caesium (Cs) and rubidium (Rb) anomalies in positions several hundred metres from the main outcropping pegmatites (see Figure 7a). The Spirit SW grid showed weaker anomalies but rock strata here are folded to strike north-south, which is not considered optimal for pegmatite emplacement in this district.

To the east, the Petalite SW and Brockmans SW grids have produced two new exploration drilling targets located 500m apart, which show coherent Li, Cs and Rb anomalies, whilst Brockmans NE showed diffuse anomalies for those same pathfinder elements.

The Bergers SW and Bergers NE geochemical sample grids have generated strongly coherent Li, Be and Rb anomalies in a complexly folded area approximately 1.2km apart (see Figure 7b).

These latter regions have never had any modern exploration evaluation and are compelling new targets to potentially grow a significant lithium mineral resource position for Prospect at Omaruru, given the strike lengths over which they have been defined.

==> picture [180 x 38] intentionally omitted <==

Exploration Drilling Targets

Karlsbrunn NE

The encouraging geochemical results and resultant interpretation has indicated that a 200-250m long, open ended, north-easterly extension to the Karlsbrunn deposit is apparent and requires drill testing (Figure 8). If additional lithium mineralisation is proved up here, strike extensions to the existing geochemical soil grids would be considered further to the NNE and SSW, based on the inferred strike.

Hillside SW

To the southwest of Hillside, a coherent, new 150-200m long target zone has been delineated, which could represent a fault offset of the existing Hillside lithium mineralisation (Figure 9).

Petalite SW

Diffuse, 100-150m long open ended soil anomaly located at far northern end of the geochemical grid; requires limited drill testing (Figure 10) and is a likely extension of the existing mapped Petalite pegmatite, directly to the northeast. If mineralisation is proved up, then strike extensions of the current soil geochemical grid to the NE towards the existing pegmatite outcrop will also be considered.

==> picture [180 x 38] intentionally omitted <==

Brockmans SW

A strong coherent, multi-element anomaly over at least 200m strike has been identified (see Figure 11), along with an additional likely extension of the main Brockmans mineralisation, which will be tested as part of follow-up drilling to the encouraging RC drilling intersections recently discovered there (see Prospect ASX announcement dated 28 March 2023).

Bergers SW

Two separate, 150-200m long diffuse geochemical anomalies (both open ended) require limited drill programmes to test extent, dip and lithium grade (Figure 12), and lie along strike with the Bergers Workings.

Bergers NE

A well-defined coherent soil anomaly over at least 500m of strike, requires drill testing (Figure 13).

Priority 1 drill targets have been defined for Karlsbrunn NE, Bergers NE and Brockmans SW, whilst Priority 2 targets exist at Bergers SW, Petalite SW and Hillside SW.

Prospect now plans to target these positions with shallow scout RC drilling, as part of the Phase 2 programme to test extensions of the recently reported lithium intersections returned from the main outcropping Karlsbrunn and Brockmans mineralised ore systems at Omaruru. This programme is scheduled to commence during the current quarter.

Upcoming Programmes

Prospect expects to complete its Phase 1 earn-in to Omaruru during Q2 2023. Upcoming programmes over coming months will encompass infill and extensional RC drilling at the Brockmans deposit and limited drilling at Karlsbrunn to test extensions at further depth.

The Company is also set to complete first-pass, short-hole, scout RC drilling of the Priority 1 regional exploration targets identified from the geochemical soil sampling, as set out in this announcement.

Upon completion of the Phase 1 earn-in, Prospect will hold a 40% stake in Richwing (and thus the Omaruru Lithium Project).

Additional expenditure will then contribute to the Phase 2 earn-in at Omaruru, for which Prospect can spend US$560,000 over 12 months to gain a further 11% stake in Richwing, and thereby achieve a majority 51% ownership holding in that Namibian domiciled company (and the Omaruru Project).
