Commencement Of RC Drilling At Manono Northeast Project
VANCOUVER - AJN Resources Inc. has commenced reverse circulation (RC) drilling on its Manono Northeast Project (PR 15282). Hub Drilling Limited, a South African based drilling company, has been contracted to follow up on drilling data received from the ongoing percussion drilling programme. The percussion drilling programme identified three zones of alluvial sediment adjacent to the granite contact zones, which are interpreted to overlie the continuation of the Manono pegmatites onto PR 15282. These target zones were identified along two section lines as shown in Figure 1 and will be tested across the full 7km extent of the property including samples with anomalous lithium and tin, which were identified in the southern portion of PR 15232. The RC drilling programme will be revised once the Company has a better understanding of the distribution of lithium bearing pegmatites within the licence area. The Company intends to give regular updates with respect to the progress of the RC drilling and commencement of the diamond drilling programme on the project area.
The percussion drilling further confirmed that the PR 14537 property, which borders PR 15282, is underlain by granite and has no economic potential. The company has since withdrawn its interest and will not continue exploring on this licence.
CEO and President Klaus Eckhof, "We are extremely excited to commence this next phase of our exploration programme at the Manono Northeast Project. The RC drilling will allow us to better understand the geological structures and potential mineralisation at deeper levels within our licence area. Our initial percussion drilling has provided valuable insights, and we look forward to expanding on this knowledge with more detailed drilling, sampling and analysis."
