VANCOUVER, Sept. 18, 2018 /CNW/ - Advantage Lithium Corp. (the "Company" or "Advantage Lithium") (TSX Venture: AAL) (OTCQX: AVLIF) is pleased to provide this update on the brine sampling of diamond core holes CAU20 and CAU21 in the NW Sector of the Cauchari JV property located in Jujuy Province, Argentina.
These results from CAU20 and CAU21 demonstrate the Phase III infill drilling and resource conversion program is on track to deliver Measured and Indicated Resources by early 2019
Systematic brine sampling completed in holes CAU20 and CAU21 respectively averaged 629 mg/l lithium and 4,537 mg/l potassium from 113-318 m depth and 607 mg/l lithium and 4,691 mg/l potassium from 125-265 m in the north of the NW sector
Drill holes encountered predominantly sandy sediments and gravels that are expected to have high drainable porosity and excellent permeability to support high pumping rates
Holes confirm the continuity of the brine body between previous drill holes in the NW Sector CAU17, CAU18, CAU07 and CAU16
Very low Mg/Li ratios of 2.1:1 and 2.2:1 respectively, and low SO4/Li ratios of 24:1 and 23:1 respectively, similar to that demonstrated during pumping of CAU07 – excellent for conventional brine processing
CAU24, completed in the southern portion of the NW Sector, confirms that brine resources continue over a 20 km distance north to CAU18 and are generally contained in the permeable sand dominated units.
