Maiden Drilling Campaign Discovers Lithium At Halo Project

VANCOUVER - POWR Lithium Corp. reported the initial results from a four-hole, 2,899 feet (883.9-metre) HQ core program. The Halo project is located less than 3 kilometres northwest of Tonopah, NV and surrounded by several lithium-exploration companies with published resources or, at least, discoveries. Results from the first drill hole reveal lithium concentrations as high as 1,735 ppm Li. Lithium-bearing claystone and siltstone were intersected in a 125.4 ft (38.2 m) thick (true thickness) package with an average grade of 938.1 ppm Li, starting at 187.0 ft (57.0 m). The initial hole was drilled to a total depth of 503.9 ft (153.6 m). Interval contained within broader envelope between 92.8 to 331.0 feet (28.3 - 100.9m) of >400ppm Li.

CEO Matt Chatterton, said, “We are very pleased with these first results.”The inaugural work program on the Halo property consisted of four drill holes, ranging from 503.8 to 804.9 feet (153.6 - 245.4m) in depth. Drill Hole No. Halo-001-23, shown in Figure 1, was positioned closest to the basin’s current margin and bottomed in lithic tuff with Li values <100ppm Li. Hole Nos. Halo-002 thru -004 are located further west and north revealing greater sediment thickness and, hence, hole depths, i.e. to 770.8 feet (235m). These greater sediment thicknesses are consistent with results reported by both American Lithium and American Battery Technology located to the north and west, respectively. The importance of this observation will be more carefully considered once all the results have been received. The Company anticipates the assay results for the remaining three holes early in 2024. Upon receipt and quality assurance review of the outstanding assays, the Company will complete a comprehensive review and analysis of the results. These results are encouraging. They show a substantial sequence of finely laminated lithium-bearing claystone and siltstone.”
