Driving exploration for metals crucial to our clean energy future

The Waratah Well project is located approximately 20km northwest of the regional town of Yalgoo in the Murchison Region of Western Australia.

Tantalum and locally lithium bearing pegmatite sills and dykes crop out over a 3km x 2km area with a range of dips. Lithium rock chip sample grades up to 2.09% Li2O in the north-western portion of the target area. The key lithium target is the blind lithium spodumene mineralisation beneath the tantalum bearing dykes, a geological architecture similar to that noted at the Bald Hills lithium mine and a similar picture that can be noted at Liontown’s Kathleen Valley lithium project whereby relatively narrow surface pegmatite dykes merge at depth to form a thick flay lying lithium spodumene rich sill.
