Trieste – Gold with Lithium potential

  • Newly recognized lithium potential associated along a structural contact of mafic volcanic rocks and granitoid rocks.
  • The property is situated 25km Southwest along strike from Winsome Resources lithium discovery at Adina, highlighted by 1.34% LiO2 over 107.60 m
  • Gold mineralization is associated with metamorphosed BIF’s with magnetic highs
  • Gold is found within quartz sulphide (pyrite, pyrrhotite, arsenopyrite and chalcopyrite) veins

Joubert - Gold
