Tantalex Intercepts 99.5 Metres of Spodumene Bearing Pegmatite in First Drillhole at Buckell Lithium Property

25.04.2018  |  GlobeNewswire

TORONTO and MUNICH, Germany, April 25, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Tantalex Resources Corp. (CSE:TTX) (FSE:1T0) (“TANTALEX” or the “Corporation”), is pleased to announce that the first hole of a 2,000-metre drilling program at its Buckell Lithium project, has intercepted multiple, parallel spodumene-bearing pegmatite bodies totalling 99.5 metres in apparent thickness.

Multiple pegmatite sections were intersected in hole BMDD001 on the contact between a schistose and granite unit. Note the location of hole BMDD001 on the inset airborne radiometric map (potassium channel) in the image above.


Dark green spodumene and green mica intercepted in hole BMDD001.


The pegmatite intruded on the contact of schistose and granitic unit, comprises of dark green mica and spodumene with varying amounts of quartz, albite feldspar and black tourmaline. It is regarded as similar in geological setting and thickness to that of the nearby Kitotolo pegmatite.

This first phase of drilling consists of 2,000 metres targeting the northeastern part of the property that lies on strike with the Kitotolo pegmatite, located 7 km to the northeast. In previous exploration work including sampling and pitting, results from laboratory analysis (SGS Labs) confirmed positive identification of pegmatite extensions below the soil cover. Nico Scholtz, VP Exploration of Tantalex, used the pitting results received to date, coupled with visual ground investigations, as well as airborne geophysical, data to plan the drill collars. In addition, his observations of spodumene and lithium alteration products in the drill core of hole BMDD001 is used to plan additional drill collars along strike with the Kitotolo pegmatite.

Dave Gagnon, Chief Executive Officer explains, “This is a turning point for Tantalex with our first hole intercepting multiple spodumene bearing pegmatite bodies. We are in a highly prolific area for lithium and I am excited by the width and potential mineralization of this first drill hole. We are continuing to drill along strike to identify further mineralization and should be reporting these results as we receive them”.
