Update on Botswana Lithium Exploration
Arkle Resources PLC (AIM:ARK), is pleased to provide an update on its lithium exploration programme in Botswana.
The four wide spaced TEM (Transient Electromagnetic) lines have been completed across the two Makgadikgadi blocks, which cover almost 1,000 sq kms. Analysis of the results indicate the presence over the blocks of a conductive layer averaging 30 metres deep. This is expected to be brines.
Samples of the brines will be collected and analysed for lithium content.
John Teeling, Chairman of Arkle, commented "We are very pleased with this outcome. The TEM lines have indicated a structure across the blocks which averages 30 metres in depth. All indications are the structure is composed of brines. Now we need to sample the brines to see if they contain lithium. Sample collecting will commence shortly."
