Aruma Resources Limited (ASX:AAJ) has intersected further high-grade lithium-rubidium mineralisation in the final batches of assays from its recently completed drilling program at the Mt Deans lithium-rubidium project near Norseman, Western Australia.
The results were from the remaining 19 holes of a 21-hole second phase reverse circulation program which drilled 1,409 metres, plus results from seven re-assayed historical holes.
Lithium-rubidium grades more than two per cent were returned, while twelve of the intersections graded at greater than 1.5 per cent lithium-rubidium.
Highlighted results include:
- 8 metres at 1.89% lithium-rubidium from 26 metres;
- 5 metres at 1.51% from 55 metres;
- 2 metres at 1.51% from 26 metres;
- 7 metres at 1.60% from 26 metres;
- 5 metres at 1.56% from 55 metres;
- 1 metre at 1.90% from 68 metres;
- 6 metres at 1.52% from 12 metres, and 1 metre at 2.63% from 23 metres;
- 5 metres at 1.98% from 4 metres; and
- 2 metres at 1.70% from 4 metres, and 8 metres at 1.60% from 20 metres.
The drilling has confirmed and extended the lithium and high-grade rubidium intersected in multiple pegmatites in Aruma’s first phase of drilling in the central part of the project area, and a subsequent rock chip sampling program.
