READ: Galan Lithium to survey shallow brines at Argentine lithium project
Galan recently commenced a new round of geophysical surveys aimed at extending brine units at its Salar de Hombre Muerto Lithium Project in Argentina’s Catamarca Province.

The work will consist of controlled source audio-frequency magnetotellurics (CSAMT) resistivity surveys which will add to the results of earlier surveys conducted along the Candelas channel.

Salar is in the world-class ‘lithium triangle’ region of Argentina, adjacent to projects operated by Galaxy Resources Ltd (ASX:GXY) and FMC Lithium Corp (NYSE:FMC).


Recent name change from Dempsey Minerals Ltd
Earlier this month Galan Lithium changed its name and ticker code from Dempsey Minerals Ltd (ASXMI).

The name change came about after the company’s recent Blue Sky acquisition in June 2018 which resulted in the company refocusing as a lithium explorer and developer in Argentina.

Blue Sky is the owner of the rights, interests and title to the Hombre Muerto mining tenements.

The project is located within the South American Lithium Triangle in the Hombre Muerto Basin, one of the most important and prolific salt flats in Argentina and indeed the world.
