Pegmatite pods were\nintersected in every hole. On December 12, 2022, Durango reported\n \n \n elevated lithium, rubidium and cesium levels\nwere intersected in holes 1, 2 and 4. Lithium-bearing pegmatite pods\nwere intersected in each of the drill holes and assayed values up to\n748 parts per million (ppm) lithium, 3,830 ppm rubidium and 436 ppm\ncesium.\n \n \n All drillholes are dipping at 45 degrees\nwith an azimuth of 360 or 340 degrees.\n \n \n \n \n Durango has received additional partial assay results\nfor hole 3 which is 100m away from hole 2 which reported the 748ppm\nlithium as per above. The pegmatite was intercepted at a downhole\ndepth of 72m to 109m and returned values of 412ppm lithium, 3,340ppm\nrubidium and 360ppm cesium including an average of 233ppm lithium over\n4m from 108m-112m downhole depth. These enriched zones were found as\nhaloes surrounding the pegmatite dykes. Anomalous cobalt of up to\n53.6ppm was detected and seems to be associated with elevated vanadium\nvalues of up to 354ppm, tantalum of up to 57.6ppm and copper of up to\n1,210ppm. Cerium, lanthanum, and neodymium levels also returned\nelevated levels. Twenty eight percent of the samples assayed returned\nlithium values greater than 100ppm as outlined in the table excerpt\nbelow:\n \n \n \n \n \n \n Analyte Symbol\n \n \n \n \n Cs\n \n \n \n \n Li\n \n \n \n \n Mn\n \n \n \n \n Rb\n \n \n \n \n \n \n Unit Symbol\n \n \n \n \n ppm\n \n \n \n \n ppm\n \n \n \n \n ppm\n \n \n \n \n ppm\n \n \n \n \n \n \n Detection Limit\n \n \n \n \n 0.1\n ...
