Zenith Minerals Limited (“Zenith” or “the Company”) is pleased to advise that a program of shallow drilling has commenced at the Zacatecas Lithium Project in central Mexico. The program, fully funded by the Bradda Head Ltd under the American Lithium Joint Venture was bought forward as a suitable drill contractor became available in the project area. The aim of this short hole auger drill program is to provide an initial test for lithium in near surface brines and sediments of the San Juan salt pans where recent systematic, infill sampling returned highly encouraging surface sediment results up to 1046ppm lithium (Figure 1). As previously advised (ASX Release 24th May 2017) the surface sampling program has to date, outlined a large 4km by 2km strong lithium anomaly (values greater than 300ppm lithium) on the San Juan concession (Figure 2).
