We look forward to further drill testing some of these high priority areas at depth, below the weathering surface, particularly the new target Nira.\u201d<\/em><\/div>\n<p>For more information on previous exploration results at Solon\u00f3pole, refer to Oceana\u00b4s ASX Announcements 7 August 2023, 3 November 2023 and 5 January 2024. The status of the large-scale infill soil sampling program that commenced in March 2023 relative to the location of the main exploration areas is shown in Figure 1 below. <\/p>\n<p>As at 31 January 2024, over 8,300 soil samples had been collected from Solon\u00f3pole and analysed by X-Ray Fluorescence (XRF) for Lithium-Caesium-Tantalum (LCT) pathfinders, of which 1,908 soil samples now have lab results validated by Oceana\u00b4s internal QA\/QC. These results show a median lithium value of approximately 42 ppm and an average lithium value of 69 ppm (background). Anomalous lithium values above 100 ppm and up to 631 ppm were found in 383 soil samples within existing and new target areas. Please refer to Appendix 1 (Table 4.1 to Table 4.6) for soil sample results and coordinates. <\/p>\n<p>Oceana has integrated these soil sample results with other datasets from geophysics, geological mapping (125 line km), trenching and RC drilling (~2,000m). The combined datasets confirmed several swarms of pegmatite bodies striking in a NE-SW direction and identified high priority areas showing more than one lithium bearing pegmatite. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p><strong>Click here for the full ASX Release<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/p>\n<div>This post appeared first on investingnews.com<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Oceana Lithium Limited (ASX: OCN, \u201cOceana\u201d or \u201cthe Company\u201d) hereby reports soil sample results from its Solon\u00f3pole Lithium Project in Cear\u00e1 State, Brazil, with 383 samples returning anomalous lithium values in soil above 100 ppm and up to 631 ppm.
