Australian Critical Minerals Updates Cooletha Lithium Project and Rankin Dome Exploration Progress

Cooletha Lithium Project Sampling

Phase 1 Sampling marked a significant milestone for the Cooletha Project, spanning approximately 65 square kilometres and resulting in the successful collection of 251 rock samples, offering invaluable insights into the region’s geological composition.

Consulting geologists closely scrutinised the collected samples, identifying four priority areas within the Project, characterised by unique fractionation textures and spodumene content, indicating significant lithium potential.

The four pegmatite prospects named Bloodwood, Echo Valley, Burnt Ridge and Billy Creek have been identified as priority future work areas.

The pegmatites occur as dykes and broad pavements striking for several hundred metres and often with substantial widths. The pegmatites are hosted in the Tambourah Monzogranite which is a large domal batholith and part of the Split Rock Supersuite which regionally hosts lithium and tantalum bearing pegmatites.
