Anson Resources begins lithium resource drilling at Green River

Anson Resources Ltd (ASX:ASN, OTCQB:ANSNF) has kicked off a resource drilling program with the Bosydaba 1 well at the Green River Lithium Project in the Paradox Basin, in south-eastern Utah, USA.

The well will be drilled to a total vertical depth of 10,800 feet (3,292 metres) on the company’s recently acquired industrial-use land at the project, as the first stage of Anson’s JORC mineral resource definition drilling.

Drilling is targeting both the Clastic Zones and the Mississippian Units that contain previously recorded supersaturated brines, enabling brines to be sampled from all evaporite layers. Coring will be carried out on the major horizons of interest and will be used for laboratory test-work.

Core will also be collected to assist the assessment of porosity, permeability and other key factors from which Anson plans to confirm a maiden JORC mineral resource.

The drilling program is the first new well that Anson has drilled in the region, with the well being next to the company’s planned Utah sample demonstration plant (USDP) and the on-site visitor centre.

Drilling is expected to be completed in the current quarter.
