Two Phase Geophysics Program At Edwards Creek


VANCOUVER - Ameriwest Lithium Inc. that the Edward’s Creek Valley, Nevada (ECV) staking program positions it to have effectively tied up the entire valley, an area roughly 8.25 miles long and 3.25 miles wide in size. The Company believes the mineral claims are highly prospective for the discovery of lithium brines deposits. Following the staking, Ameriwest has initiated a 2-phase geophysical program at ECV. Phase 1 consists of a gravity survey of approximately 250 stations (800 by 800-meter grid) over the entire Property. Gravity surveys are carried out to map subsurface density contrasts caused by geological structures. The gravity survey is expected to be completed shortly. The collected gravity data will then be immediately processed and interpreted.

This will be followed up by a Phase 2 Magnetotelluric (MT) survey conducted by Zonge International Inc. that consists of four profiles for a total of 22.4 kilometers of MT line’s. The MT geophysical survey method combines measurements of the earth’s electric field and magnetic field over a wide band of frequencies. Low frequencies sample deep into the earth and high frequencies correspond to shallow samples.
