Lithium In Water Analyses Over 220 Feet At Gemini Lithium Project


VANCOUVER - Nevada Sunrise Gold Corp. reported that highly-significant values of lithium have been detected in water samples collected from boreholes GEM22-01 and GEM22-02, drilled in the inaugural 2022 drilling program at its Gemini Lithium Project located in the Lida Valley basin in Esmeralda County, Nevada. The water samples from both boreholes contain dissolved lithium in a calcium/magnesium carbonate-type brine that was not easily recognized on site during the drilling program due to the presence of high levels of suspended solids.

Water samples from borehole GEM-22-01 averaged 327.7 milligrams per liter ("mg/L") lithium over 220 feet (67.07 meters) from 600 to 820 feet with a peak value of 519 mg/L lithium. Water samples from borehole GEM22-02 returned an average of 116.28 mg/L lithium over 460 feet (140.24 meters) from 600 to 1,120 feet (201.22 to 341.46 meters) with a peak value of 286.0 mg/L lithium.
