RETRANSMISSION: Origen Acquires Additional Land at Los Sapitos Lithium District in Argentina

18.04.2023  |  Newsfile

Vancouver, April 18, 2023 - Origen Resources Inc. (CSE: ORGN) (FSE: 4VXA) (the "Company" or "Origen") is pleased to announce it has added to its large land package at its 100% owned Los Sapitos Lithium Project in San Juan Province, Argentina. Origen has applied for 6,200 hectares just south east of the main Los Sapitos area, covering a shallow basin.

Thomas Hawkins, Managing Director, notes: "We are very excited about what we are seeing in San Juan and having a top-notch team in Argentina has allowed us to quickly move to add to our substantial land holdings. Our field crews have just completed their work at Los Sapitos, so they can now be dedicated to the new Los Toritos area to identify further priority areas."

Origen's two field crews have just completed sampling and mapping work on the four priority areas initially outlined at Los Sapitos. The Company currently plans to follow this field work with geophysical surveys and is still on-track for the initial drill testing program planned for the second half of this year.

Origen's Los Sapitos Lithium Project is located in the northern part of the San Juan Province in Argentina. Discovered by Origen during a global search for lithium occurrences, the most prospective part of Los Sapitos consists of 26,962 hectares of contiguous exploration licences, covering a lithium-rich brine occurrence, with an additional 6,200 hectares less than 10 km away. Our lithium exploration team has theorized that like at Clayton Valley, the brines are contained at depth in dipping aquifers controlled by faults and therefore have never formed a conspicuously visible salt lake. Preliminary water sampling in Los Sapitos indicated lithium levels similar to some established lithium salars - as high as 390 mg/l (see news release dated October 13, 2021). This crucially demonstrates that Los Sapitos has inflows with the right chemistry to generate lithium brines. Ulexite (a boron evaporite mineral) has also been identified at Los Sapitos and indicates that concentrated boron-bearing brines have been present.
