Ameriwest further announces the State has also approved the second Geologic Field Operation Plan for the Thompson Valley property. This approved plan allows for an expanded surface sampling program with subsequent laboratory assays. The initial plan was limited to 50 samples (see news release dated June 7, 2022), and the new plan allows additional sampling, expected to be approximately 300 samples. The continued surface sampling and assays will allow Ameriwest to expand upon its positive results announced last month (see news release dated Aug. 10, 2022) wherein significant lithium concentrations were discovered.
David Watkinson, President and CEO of Ameriwest, stated, "After a highly successful initial surface sampling program at our Thompson Valley property which led to the discovery of surface or near surface lithium bearing clays, we are moving forward with an expanded surface sampling program that will allow Ameriwest's technical team to better characterize this sedimentary clay deposit. The data from the expanded surface sampling program will be used to define drill targets and allow the Company to move forward with permitting process for a drill program. The goal of the drilling program will be to determine the depth of lithium bearing strata and to start the process of delineating potential lithium resources on the property, subject to exploration success."
Ameriwest also announces it has completed and filed NI 43-101 Reports for each of the ESN Gold project in Nevada and the Koster Dam Gold project in Central British Columbia. These gold projects form the assets of Ameriwest's wholly owned subsidiary, ISM Resources Corp. ("ISM"). Ameriwest announced on July 11, 2022, that it had received approval from the Supreme Court of British Columbia of a statutory Plan of Arrangement, pursuant to which Ameriwest and ISM will separate into two independent companies. Ameriwest will continue to trade on the Canadian Securities Exchange (the "CSE") and ISM is applying to have its common shares listed for trading on the CSE. Assuming that the remaining conditions to closing are satisfied and the necessary regulatory approvals are obtained, it is expected that the closing of the Plan of Arrangement will be completed in the third quarter of 2022.
Greg Bell, P.E. (Arizona), a qualified person under the NI 43-101 instrument, has reviewed and approved the technical content of this release. Note no mineral resources or reserves have yet been delineated on the Thompson Valley Property that meet National NI 43-101 Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects or CIM Definition Standards.
