Argentina Lithium & Vitality Corp. (TSXV: LIT) (FSE: OAY3) (OTC: PNXLF) (“Argentina Lithium” or the “Firm”) proclaims the completion of the primary exploration diamond drill gap at its Rincon West Venture in Salta Province Argentina and experiences constructive lithium analyses from brine samples collected over a 70 metre thick permeable interval with lithium grades starting from 225 to 380 mglitre. The Rincon West challenge covers 2,470 hectares of the salar basin, situated west of the adjoining Rincon Venture owned by Rio Tinto. 5 exploration holes are initially deliberate to check potential brine targets recognized with geophysics (see Might 2, 2022 Information Launch).
“The primary gap at Rincon West has revealed a permeable 70 metre interval with reasonable to high-grade lithium values. This validates our perception that the concentrated lithium brines mapped within the adjoining assets does lengthen beneath our property. We’re persevering with our exploration drilling to delineate this mineralization with the purpose of defining a mineral useful resource.” acknowledged Miles Rideout , V.P. of Exploration.
The outcomes of the brine analyses and the respective intervals are proven in Desk 1. Drill collar data is offered in Desk 2. Determine 1 presents a map of the Rincon West property displaying the positions of RW-DDH-001 and the following drill gap in progress, and 7 extra potential areas for future exploration drilling. The map presents these drill areas overlaid on the conductive zones delineated with geophysics, talked about above.

*Drill gap RW-DDH-001 was drilled vertically to a depth of 300m under floor; the salar strata is believed to be flat mendacity leading to reported intervals approximating true thickness
Gap RW-DDH-001 was executed with diamond drilling (HQ-size), allowing the extraction of core samples of the salar basin formations and assortment of brine samples the place doable. Drilling was carried out between Might 28 and June 17 , stopping at 300 metres depth in basement rock items. Ultimate sampling and lining the opening with 2″ diameter PVC filters and casing was accomplished on June 30, 2022 . Drilling was carried out by Salta-based AGV Falcon Drilling SRL, below the supervision of Argentina Lithium’s geologists.

Brine sampling was carried out utilizing a single packer sampling unit throughout drilling. A bailer was employed on two events when non permanent tools failure precluded sampling with a packer. Upon completion of the drilling, chosen intervals of the opening have been re-sampled with a double packer system, allowing isolation of sure intervals. The packer sampling technique permits the gathering of brine samples at particular depths whereas sealing the opening on the backside and on the high of the interval.
Core logs and the monitoring of drill mud conductivity indicated that the opening entered brackish-to-brine aquifer at roughly 45 metres depth. The preliminary gap was cased from floor to 42 m depth to stabilize the free higher formation sediments. Sand, black sand and gravel host formations have been logged between 50 and 76.3 m depth, with silt and traces of sulphates. From 76.3 m to 127.5 m , the core logs present interbedded sand and silt with sulphates. Gravels with sand have been logged from 127.5 m to 144.0 m , the place the drill entered ignimbrite (a welded pyroclastic rock), displaying various levels of fracturing and alteration. In consideration of the younger volcanos south of the property, drilling continued to 300 m , to guarantee that deeper permeable sediment items didn’t exist within the sequence within the space of RW-DDH-001.The outlet was stopped in granitic igneous items representing basement. All core samples recovered in drilling are retained for logging and can be found for subsequent laboratory analysis of things corresponding to whole and efficient porosity, permeability and different measureable traits of the aquifer formation.
Samples of brine have been submitted for evaluation to Alex Stewart Worldwide Argentina S.A., the native subsidiary of Alex Stewart Worldwide. an ISO 9001:2008 licensed laboratory, with ISO 17025:2005 certification for the evaluation of lithium and potassium. Alex Stewart employed Inductively Coupled Plasma Optical Emission Spectrometry (“ICP-OES”) because the analytical approach for the first constituents of curiosity, together with: boron, calcium, potassium, lithium, and magnesium. Measurements within the area included pH, conductivity, temperature and density. The standard of pattern analytical outcomes was managed and assessed with a protocol of clean, duplicate and customary samples included inside the pattern sequence. Variations between unique and duplicate samples and outcomes for requirements and blanks are thought of inside the acceptable vary for lithium. Two duplicates, one clean and two requirements have been included within the samples reported on this information launch.
Argentina Lithium has an choice to earn a 100% curiosity within the Rincon West challenge, as described within the Firm’s September 28, 2021 Information Launch.
