E3 Lithium Reports 16.0 Million Tonnes Of LCE Measured And Indicated At Lithium Brine Project

E3 Lithium (TSXV: ETL) has a new mineral resource estimate in hand for its Bashaw District lithium brine asset. The estimate was established following drilling conducted last year coupled with “ongoing reviews and analyses of core samples.”

At a high level, the revised estimate consisted of 6.6 million tonnes of lithium carbonate equivalent (LCE) in the measured category, and 9.4 million tonnes of LCE in the indicated category, resulting in a total of 16.0 million tonnes of measured and indicated lithium carbonate equivalent.

The resource was further broken down into two zones, including the Clearwater Area, which is said to feature 4.3 million tonnes of LCE on a measured and indicated basis at 74.5 mg/L, and the remaining Bashaw District, which contains 11.7 million tonnes of LCE on a measured and indicated basis, also at 74.5 mg/L.

The revised resource is said to make the project one of the largest direct lithium extraction brine projects globally, with hard rock deposits in Canada currently amounting to 3.2 million tonnes of measured and indicated resources on a combined basis.

“This resource upgrade is the largest of its kind in Canada and is significant on a global scale. The amount of data and geological work required to upgrade resources of this magnitude is significant and further increases our understanding of the Leduc Aquifer and as a result, our technical confidence in our commercialization plans,” commented CEO Chris Doornbos on the results.

E3 Lithium last traded at $2.30 on the TSX Venture.
