Anson Resources shifts into high gear at Green River with new resource drilling program
Anson Resources Ltd (ASX:ASN) is preparing a new drilling program at its Green River Lithium Project in the Paradox Basin in Utah, USA, as it shifts into high gear to prove up a JORC-compliant mineral resource for the newly-acquired land.
This new program is the second phase of the company’s resource definition strategy at Green River, on top of its plan to sample a historical oil well to test the project’s supersaturated brines announced last week.
The Green River Lithium Project is an exploration target 50 kilometres northwest of Anson’s flagship Paradox Lithium Project in Utah.

Anson has submitted three Notices of Intent (NOIs) to the Utah Division of Oil, Gas and Mining (UDOGM), Minerals Division, covering three drill targets in three separate land parcels in two different counties.
Additionally, it has submitted a requisite Application Permit to Drill (APD) to UDOGM due to the planned depths of the wells to about 3,292 metres to sample both the Mississippian units and Clastic Zones.
The Mississippian units and Clastic Zones have been reported to contain supersaturated brines, but no assaying for lithium has been carried out to date.
Anson is targeting to drill to a total vertical depth of 10,800 feet under the new mineral resource drilling program.

The drill program is designed to have as little impact on the environment, social and recreational activities as possible.
As the targets are located on flat, sparsely vegetated ground that will require only minor earthworks and site preparation prior to drilling, there should be minimal new ground disturbance.
As well, the areas abutting the drill targets have previously been subject to significant ground disturbance.
Anson’s use of these existing areas for its exploration activities is part of the company’s plans to develop a sustainable project with minimal impact on the environment.
