ABSTRACT:Galan Lithium Limited (ASX:GLN) (Galan or the Company) is pleased to announce that field measurements indicate that the upper levels of a brine bearing aquifer have been encountered in the third drillhole, C-03-19, at the Candelas Lithium Brine Project located on the Hombre Muerto salar in Argentina. The brine was intercepted from depths of approximately 280 metres to the current depth of ~309m and is located approximately 2.5kms southeast of the maiden drillhole which provided outstanding results including an intercept of 192m @ 802 mg/l Li with low impurities (ASX announcement 11 March 2019). The geological sequence largely replicates that observed in the maiden drillhole incorporating a thick layer of ignimbrite lying below surficial alluvial cover. The hole then encountered a sequence of sands and clays hosting salty waters which then, at ~280m, turned to brines hosted within a permeable breccia-conglomerate. Conductivity measurements from brine samples exceeded the 200 millisiemens/cm limits of the field recording instrument whilst specific gravity was recorded at 1.13 g/cm3 . Brine temperatures are below 20° c confirming that the aquifer intercepted in the second drillhole, where aquifer temperatures reached in excess of 55° c located ~7km to the south, has likely been diluted with localised hydrothermal waters.
