Everest Metals Corporation (EMC) has announced that Stage Two Reverse Circulation (RC) drilling has commenced at its Mt Edon LCT Project.

The project is located 5km southwest of Paynes Find, in the Midwest region of Western Australia.

Key details of the operation: 

  • Up to ten hole drill campaign, commencing on 27 July 2023
  • Drilling to follow up previous drilling results (40m at 0.26 per cent Rb2O from 49m – including 19m at 0.33 per cent rubidium oxide [Rb2O] and 0.1 per cent lithium oxide [Li2O] from 51m)
  • Drilling to test multiple pegmatite targets previously identified through the Deep Ground Penetration Radar (DGPR) geophysical survey 

EMC Chief Operating Officer, Simon Phillips, said that the EMC geological team continues to systematically work its exploration program at the Mt Edon Mining Lease. 

“Each program brings us closer to the source of rich lithium and rubidium which has been shown at surface through our rock chip program.”
