Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - July 3, 2024) - AJN Resources Inc. (CSE: AJN) (FSE: 5AT) (AJN or the Company) is pleased to announce that the Company's recent drilling program has intersected a highly weathered, 80 to 100m wide pegmatitic zone in granite on its Manono Northeast Project (PR 15282) that is clearly identified in two diamond drill holes completed on Line 4800N as shown in Figure 1. Spodumene and minor lepidolite mineralisation were identified in each of the diamond drill holes. The pegmatitic zone is flat dipping to the southeast and exposed over a minimum of 300m at surface as interpreted from reverse circulation (RC) drilling shown in section in Figure 2. Both diamond drill holes were stopped at the intersection of an interpreted intrusive sill, which was also intersected in the RC drill holes on lines 2800N and 4800N. It is likely that the sill intruded at a later stage within or at the base of the pegmatitic zone, the former suggesting broader widths of pegmatite can be expected below the intrusive. The drilling programme has been stopped and will recommence once all drill results have been received, which will guide the infill drilling programme going forward.
溫哥華,不列顛哥倫比亞省--(新聞稿 - 2024年7月3日) - AJN 資源公司 (CSE: AJN) (FSE: 5AT) 很高興地宣佈,公司最近的鑽探計劃在其 Manono 東北項目 (所有板塊) 中的花崗岩上,已經與一個高度風化的80至100米寬的鉀長花崗岩帶相交,如圖1所示,其在4800N線上完成的兩個金剛石鑽孔中清晰地顯示出來。兩個金剛石鑽孔中都發現了鋰輝石和小量雲母礦化。從逆循環鑽探(請參考圖2所示的剖面)中解釋,這個鉀長花崗岩帶向東南翻平,露出一個至少300米的表面。兩個鑽孔都停在了一個被解釋爲侵入的巖體的交叉處,這個侵入的巖體還出現在2800N和4800N行的逆循環鑽探中。很可能這個 sill 在鉀長花崗岩帶的內部或底部後期侵入,前者暗示着更寬的鉀長花崗岩帶可望在侵入下面。鑽探計劃已經停止,並將在收到所有化驗結果後重新開始,這些結果將指導以後的補充鑽探計劃。AJN或公司很高興地宣佈,本公司在馬諾諾東北項目上的最近鑽孔計劃中,在花崗岩中穿過了一塊麪積爲80到10000萬的高度風化的柱狀花崗岩帶。PR 15282兩個金剛石鑽孔中都發現了鋰輝石和少量雲母礦化。鉀長花崗岩帶向東南翻平,在地表露出至少300米,並在地質剖面圖中顯示,如圖2所示。RC兩個鑽孔都停在一個被解釋爲侵入的石英二長玢岩的交叉處,這個侵入的石英二長玢岩也出現在2800N和4800N行的逆循環鑽探中。很可能這個 sill 在鉀長花崗岩帶的內部或底部後期侵入,前者暗示着更寬的鉀長花崗岩帶可望在侵入下面。

CEO and President Klaus Eckhof commented: "We are extremely excited that our drilling has uncovered a significant pegmatitic zone on the same trend as the high-grade lithium resources at Manono on our Manono Northeast Project. The zone lies in a similar geological setting to the Manono pegmatites being close to the granite contact and flat dipping to the southeast. We are further encouraged by the apparent occurrence of spodumene, which we expect will be confirmed via deeper drilling below the weathered zone and from assay results. The drilling has now brought us to the end of our due diligence phase and once all results have been reported, the Company expects that it will be in a good position to commit to the project and proceed to earn its initial 60% project interest."
首席執行官兼總統 Klaus Eckhof 評論道:我們非常高興地發現,在我們的馬諾諾東北項目上鑽探出了一個顯著的柱狀巖帶,這個巖帶與馬諾諾高品位鋰資源的走向相同。該區域處於類似於馬諾諾岩脈的地質環境中,靠近花崗岩接觸帶,向東南方向平坦傾斜。我們更加鼓舞人心的是發現了鋰輝石的存在,我們預計通過更深的鑽孔和化驗結果將會進一步確認。現在我們已經完成了盡職調查階段,一旦所有結果得到報告,公司有望承諾該項目,並着手開始賺取其60%項目權益。
Fifteen RC drill holes were completed for 982m, two diamond drill holes for 282m and 83 rotary air blast (RAB) drill holes for 1,313m. The RC and diamond drill holes were designed to follow up on prospective areas identified in the RAB drilling, interpreted to coincide with the continuation of the Manono pegmatites onto PR 15282. The Company's RC and diamond drilling work has tested 2km of potential extension of these pegmatites at two different locations. Only quartz with grain sizes varying from medium to blocky was recovered within in the RC drilling programme and is interpreted to represent the pegmatite zone, which is highly weathered in the upper 50 - 60m zone and is shown in section in Figure 2. The Company expects that the extent of mineralised pegmatites will be better defined from reported assay results when received. Granites were clearly identified at shallow levels when present in both the RC and RAB drilling.
15個 RC 鑽孔完成了 982 米,2個金剛石鑽孔完成了 282 米和 83 個旋轉氣力(RAB)鑽孔完成了 1,313 米。RC 鑽孔和金剛石鑽孔旨在跟進與 Manono Pegmatites 帶上有關的前景區域,這些區域經過解釋與 PR 15282 上的主 Manono Pegmatites 延伸相一致。該公司的 RC 鑽探和金剛石鑽探工作,在兩個不同的位置測試了這些鉀長花崗岩帶潛在延伸的 2km。只有從中/粗和塊狀的石英在 RC 鑽探計劃中恢復,據推斷,這些石英代表的是鉀長花崗岩帶,在上部的 50-60 米中高度風化,並在 Figure 2 中以剖面顯示。預計獲得的化驗結果將更好地定義礦化鉀長花崗岩的範圍。當出現時,花崗岩在 RC 鑽探和 RAB 鑽探中在淺層明確地被識別出來。83個旋轉氣力(RAB)鑽孔

Spodumene was identified within the weathered drill core as shown in Figure 3. The property's true lithium potential is expected to be realised in future drilling, which will target fresh, unweathered pegmatites at deeper levels.
如圖3所示,在風化的鑽孔巖芯中發現了鋰輝石。該物業的真正鋰潛力預計將在未來的鑽孔中實現,將針對更深層的新鮮未風化的柱狀巖體。公司計劃在馬諾諾東北項目上進行額外的工作計劃,該項目具有與馬諾諾鋰產出相似的特點。未來需要進行更深入的鑽探計劃,以在深處穿過潛在的新鮮柱狀巖體。

One RC hole, KLRC015, which was drilled under alluvial artisanal workings on line 1000N (Figure 1), intersected 25m of massive quartz from surface. Results from grab samples collected from the workings reported lithium grades of up to 0.04% lithium and up to 0.18% tin in highly weathered pegmatite boulders. The assay results and abundance of quartz in the drill chips suggest a second pegmatite zone potentially exists within granites to the east of the interpreted continuation of the main Manono pegmatites.
KLRC015孔鑽進了位於1000N線上全uvial artisanal workings下的區域,從表層起鑽探出25米厚的緊密石英。從工作中收集的抓樣結果顯示,高度風化的鉀長花崗岩石塊中的鋰品位高達0.04%,錫品位高達0.18%。化驗結果和鑽屑中石英的豐富程度表明,在主要的 Manono 鉀長花崗岩帶向東的花崗岩中,可能存在第二個鉀長花崗岩帶。
All samples are currently being prepared and will be submitted to COAL laboratories in Lubumbashi for sample preparation with a 100g sample to be sent to ALS Global in Ireland for analysis. Assay results are due within the next 4-6 weeks.
目前所有樣品正在準備,並將提交到位於盧本巴希的 COAL 實驗室進行樣品製備,將送到愛爾蘭的 ALS Global 進行分析。化驗結果預計將在接下來的4-6周內出具。
The Company intends to plan additional work programmes on its Manono Northeast Project, which has similar hallmarks to the Manono lithium occurrences. A future deeper drilling programme is required to intersect potential fresh pegmatite at depth.
公司計劃在其馬諾諾東北項目上制定額外的工作計劃,該項目具有類似於馬諾諾鋰產出的特徵。未來需要進行更深入的鑽探計劃,以在深處穿過潛在的新鮮柱狀巖體。
