The 2,421-hectare Quiron II property, located in the Salar de Pocitos, Salta Province, Argentina is located approximately 12 kilometres from Liberty One Lithium's flagship asset \"Pocitos West Salar\", where brine sample drilling is ongoing and lithium concentration findings from depth are expected in the near term.InvestmentPitch Media has produced a \"video news alert\" which provides a brief overview of the company.

The survey program, with 18 vertical electrical sounding stations, delineating a North-South and East-West axis, and delimitating the confines of a structural high that potentially dives the basin in the northwestern part of the Pocitos Salar into two depocentres. In a 2016 report, Dr. Garcia described two aquifer systems and their respective area of intersection as relevant for the property and per extension to the hydraulic dynamic of the entire basin in terms of fresh water contribution. Dr. Garcia further detected very low resistivity at 65-70 meters downwards in the Northeast flank of the Pocitos Salar including the area of Quiron II, which can be attributed to sand layers saturated with brines.Conhydro will perform the survey in order to explore the hydrogeological ambient of the property's subsurface, that is, define the potency, thickness and resistivity values of layers, aquifers and related intersections. The method of Vertical Electrical Soundings has been widely used by other companies for the groundwater prospecting in the Pocitos Salar in order to discern fresh water from potentially lithium bearing brine interfaces.
