Atlantic Lithium (ASX:A11) hit whopping fertile pegmatite in West Africa
November 28, 2023Atlantic Lithium has confirmed 106m of continuous pegmatite loaded with visible spodumene at its flagship Ewoyaa Lithium Project in Ghana.
It is the longest continuous pegmatite interval from the company’s 2023 drilling programme, which is looking for extensions to add to its current mineral resource estimate of 35.3Mt @ 1.25 Li2O and Ore Reserves of 25.6Mt @ 1.22% Li2O.
Atlantic, developing Ghana’s first lithium mine, is understandably upbeat on the finding of numerous broad intervals of visible spodumene outside its project area.
