Commencement Of Drilling At The Gabriel Project


VANCOUVER - Tearlach Resources Limited has commenced Phase 1 core drilling on the Gabriel Lithium project, in Nevada. The drill program has been designed to confirm lithium mineralization intersected in holes drilled and to complete step-out holes for prospective locations throughout the Gabriel property. Material from mineralized intervals will be utilized for initial metallurgical testing.

The company plans to accelerate drilling from the collaborative nature of the Joint Venture. The initial holes Utilizing Blackrock Silvers existing drill pads to save time. Schedule is for there to be a 19 hole core drill, 3000 meters of HQ core drilling, to be completed in approximately 2-3 months. There will be ongoing concurrent metallurgical testing with further mapping and targeting for the extended drill program - wide pattern to confirm and significantly extend the previously drilled zones.

Morgan Lekstrom, CEO, said, “The depth and experience of our team is a key contributor to the speed in which we can execute from the project’s inception to drilling within a month.  We believe this is only one step in a multipronged approach that uses concurrent geological and engineering processes to drive our project forward quickly.  We are accelerating not only drilling and permitting but the ability to understand the larger picture for the Tonopah lithium district. We plan significant catalysts over the next few weeks and months that will provide a clear path forward for shareholders of Tearlach and our JV partner, Blackrock Silver. Being next to American Lithium and in a very mining-friendly jurisdiction has significant advantages as their resource size and potential district size makes what we believe Tonopah to be the fast-growing and future Lithium District in America.”
