The system is open in both directions.\n \n \n The largest pegmatitic outcropping is ~350 m long by ~70 m wide with full size unknown.\n \n \n Beryl, tantalum oxides and further coarse-grained tantalite have been identified throughout the system, confirming that the White Willow system is highly evolved as coarse–grained tantalite will be present in the most fractionated zone of an LCT-system where spodumene, if present, is anticipated to occur.\n \n \n The Company has also completed a historical data compilation that further demonstrates the White Willow system is very evolved, as very anomalous cesium (>50 ppm) and lithium (>300 ppm) were identified in 36 and 45 samples, respectively, with 6 samples above 1,000 ppm Li up to 0.5% LiO2.\n \n \n The presence of very anomalous lithium and cesium indicates that the samples were collected from within the outer zone of a fertile LCT-system which is where spodumene, if present, is anticipated to occur.\n \n \n The Company also announces ...
