Standard Lithium Provides Update on Geophysical Survey at Bristol Lake Project

Standard Lithium Ltd. is pleased to announce positive results from the completed Controlled-Source Audio-Magnetotellurics / Magnetotellurics (CSAMT/MT) geophysical survey at the Company’s Bristol Lake Project, in the Mojave area of California.

The report produced by Hasbrouck Geophysics Inc. provided the following highlights:

  • Extensive low resistivity values across almost all of Standard Lithium’s 16,000+ acre claim package, suggesting that lithium brines are present beneath almost all of Standard’s claims;
  • Thick sequences of extremely low resistivity values (less than 1 ohm-metre), likely correlating with high concentration brines; and,
  • An increase in conductivity to the south and east, suggesting that brines extend fully across Standard Lithium’s claim package in parts of the basin which are currently not used for brine harvesting activities.

Jim Hasbrouck, President of Hasbrouck Geophysics commented “Resistivity values less than one ohm-metre are present throughout the Bristol Lake Project area with portions of the area having resistivities that approach an extremely low value of 0.2 ohm-metres.  These resistivities are the lowest that I have measured in the US for lithium-brine exploration and are similar to those seen in the lithium triangle of Chile, Argentina and Bolivia.

The data from this successful CSAMT/MT survey are now being combined with the results from the recent gravity geophysical survey to determine suitable locations for exploratory drilling, and Standard Lithium is in the process of retaining drilling contractors to allow for rigs to mobilise before the end of Q3.
