HMW Project Mineral Resource Estimate

The first HMW Project Mineral Resource Estimate was created by SRK and was updated on 17 November 2020. Then, SRK considered fresh information obtained from exploration operations finished in 2021–2022, and they also thought about buying the Casa del Inca I tenement.

Concerning the Pata Pila, Rana de Sal, Casa del Inca, and Del Condor tenements, fifteen (15) drillholes totalling 4,384 metres were used to gather geological and geochemical data for the revised Mineral Resource estimate. The estimation was built on a total of 236 brine assays, all of which were examined at the Alex Stewart International laboratory (Jujuy).

Backgrounder

The Pata Pila, Rana de Sal, and Casa del Inca tenement holdings at Hombre Muerto West served as the basis for the initial Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE), which was performed by SRK Consulting in March 2020. The interpretation of Controlled Source Audio-Frequency Magnetotellurics (CSMAT) and Transient Electromagnetic (TEM) geophysical profiles was used to confine the hydrogeologic domains to logged units inside the drillholes. Lithium (reported as Li2CO3 equivalent) and potassium (KCl equivalent) mineral resource estimates were finished by SRK.

The HMW Project DFS is now anticipated to be released in Q1 2023. In response to the improved HMW Resource Estimate, prospective increases to the initially anticipated production parameters have been explored.
