Latest Lithium Exploration News

Chariot Corporation has completed its Phase 2 drilling at the Black Mountain lithium project in Wyoming, revealing a more intricate pegmatite system with modest lithium grades and outlining clear targets for further exploration.

Anson Resources has expanded its Green River Lithium Project in Utah by acquiring 100 new placer claims, increasing the landholding by 10% and identifying promising re-entry targets in historical wells to potentially enhance lithium resource estimates.

IRIS Metals has expanded its lithium exploration footprint in South Dakota by acquiring the 752-hectare Tin Mountain Extension, advancing its position as a leading US lithium explorer. Phase II drilling is underway, with assay results and a maiden resource estimate expected by late 2025.

Critical Resources Limited has unveiled final assay results from its 2024 drilling campaign at the Mavis Lake Lithium Project, revealing high-grade spodumene mineralisation beyond its current resource estimate and highlighting significant expansion potential.

Charger Metals NL has secured a significant farm-in agreement with Rio Tinto Exploration to fund up to $43.7 million at its Lake Johnston lithium project, while confirming high-grade spodumene discoveries at multiple prospects. The company also highlights promising exploration potential at its Bynoe Lithium Project in the Northern Territory.

Astute Metals has reported its broadest lithium mineralisation intersection to date at the Red Mountain Project in Nevada, with a standout 95-metre intercept grading 1,340ppm lithium. These results reinforce the project's potential as a high-grade lithium clay deposit in a prolific US lithium region.

Lithium Energy Limited has completed a 38km passive seismic survey at its White Plains Lithium Brine Project in Utah, revealing a promising Half Graben Basin structure up to 600 metres deep. This milestone sets the stage for advanced geophysical surveys and targeted drilling to define lithium resources.

Charger Metals secures $500,000 from Rio Tinto and advances a $1.1 million exploration program at Lake Johnston, boosting its cash position and drilling activity in Western Australia’s lithium hotspot.

Anson Resources reports a significant 44% increase in lithium assay values at its Green River Lithium Project, driven by aquifer 'clean-up' during brine extraction. This improvement promises enhanced resource potential and cost efficiencies ahead of a planned JORC upgrade.

IRIS Metals has reported promising high-grade lithium intersections from its Phase I drilling at the Edison Project in South Dakota, reinforcing its strategy to develop a centralized lithium processing hub in the US.

Perpetual Resources has commenced its first-ever drilling program at the Igrejinha Lithium Project in Brazil’s renowned Lithium Valley, targeting high-grade spodumene mineralisation. Results from this initial phase are expected from July 2025.

Lightning Minerals has advanced its lithium exploration at the Dundas project in Western Australia through a detailed infill soil sampling program, revealing promising lithium concentrations that refine existing targets.
