Pan Asia Metals secures options in Chile’s Tama Atacama lithium project Pan Asia Metals (ASX:PAM) announced last week that it has secured the option to buy Chile’s Tama Atacama lithium project. Tama Atacama project is a lithium brine project that is considered to be one of the largest South American lithium resources. The project which covers around 1200 km2 is over three salt flats and consists of Dolores North, Dolores South, Pozon and Pink project. In addition to this Pan Asia is also acquiring the north half of the Ramatidas project. In the next 5 years, multiple structure payments will be involved in this acquisition, as well as it is expected that this deal will catalase several strategic moves at the Chilean lithium stage. Such moves involve the recent purchase of early-stage Li brine assets by Eramet SA, CODELCO – Corporación Nacional del Cobre de Chile’s acquisition of Lithium Power International Ltd (ASX: LPI). and its Maricunga Li brine assets, moves by Australian and Chinese processors to build lithium conversion plants in the South American country, and recent indications from BASF, BYD, and tsingshan holding group that they plan to build lithium conversion plants in Chile. Tama Atacama is considered a high lithium concentration deposit with a strategic positioning that has been indicated by Paul Lock: “The Tama Atacama Lithium Project has the potential to be one of the largest lithium brine projects in the global peer group. Surface assays for lithium are extremely high and the project has enviable strategic positioning, with all infrastructure requirements satisfied.” Geophysics and drilling is expected to start in the early 2024. The company currently holds talks with potential strategic partners and expects to establish communication with the Chilean government which recently formed a new state-controlled lithium partnership. The Partnership combines assets of CODELCO – Corporación Nacional del Cobre de Chile and SQM. The partnership is the idea of Chile’s President Gabriel Boric for greater public control over the lithium deposit. At this point, we would like to inform and invite everyone to the CESCO Week which will be held 15-19.04.2024 in Santiago de Chile. CESCO it is one of the leading copper mining events globally, which brings together the highest authorities and leaders of the industry each year. Morover the WMC/IOC meeting will take place on 14.04.2024 in Santiago de Chile. #mining, #miningindustry , #lithium, #chile

The initial Preliminary Economic Assessment mining plan allowed for a Phase 1 production commencing in 2026 with Phase 2 average production of 525,000 tpa SC5.5 and 159,000 tpa SC3 commencing 2029. The increase of MRE will now include a phase 3 extension and expansion to production which will be evaluated in the DFS. #LRS’ Managing Director, Christopher Gale, commented: "What a great effort from our exploration team. Another significant milestone met with our upgraded MRE to over 70Mt. This Project is fast becoming a Tier One lithium resource as we predicted. We are also very encouraged by the consistent uplift in grade as we infill drill. This is a great sign of a quality mineral resource. “The increase in size of the JORC resource will have an extremely positive impact on our DFS economics as the resource increase allows us to evaluate building phase 3 of the project lifting output significantly.” Full announcement: https://loom.ly/819qMNU #LatinResources #ASX

🇨🇦 ⛏️ Noble Mineral Exploration (TSX-V: NOB) and Canada Nickel Company (TSX-V: CNC) Announce Spin-out of Mann Twp JV and Acquisition of Eastern Exploration Properties Highlights 🔸Noble has exercised all underlying options with Optionors on the Mann Twp properties 🔸Consolidation of the Canada Nickel-Noble joint venture in Mann Township into a single private company for a future public listing 🔸Transfer by Canada Nickel of several exploration properties east of Timmins 🔸Transfer by Noble of several mining claims and patented mineral properties to Canada Nickel, as well as the right acquire surface rights that could be used within and around the Crawford Project 🔸Provision of certain non-dilutive exploration funding requirements to be provided to the private company by Canada Nickel 🔸Both Canada Nickel and Noble will retain their respective NSR’s and NSR buy back rights where applicable Vance White, CEO of Noble said, “We felt that consolidating the eastern properties into a separate exploration company would maximize the value of the Mann Twp properties without incurring significant upfront dilution to Noble, and at the same time gain exposure to additional identified nickel sulphide targets in the Timmins camp in which Noble currently has no interest. ExploreCo will control ~1,989 mining claims totaling over 42,000 ha and will include Reaume, Mann and Newmarket Townships as well as McCool, Moody, Galna and other properties currently held by Canada Nickel. Noble will vend its interest in Project 81, together with the right to acquire surface rights over Project 81. For properties transferred from Noble to Canada Nickel, Noble will retain a 5-year exploration right to any non-nickel exploration target therein. This 5-year exploration right will be subject to an annual exploration right thereafter upon both parties’ consent. Noble intends to use its best efforts so that -upon ExploreCo going public, a portion of Noble’s holdings in ExploreCo will be distributed to Noble shareholders in order that they may have a direct benefit as ExploreCo advances all underlying properties to the development stage, although that is a future event and we cannot provide any assurances that this will be done”. 📈TSX-V 🇨🇦 NOB - OTCQX 🇺🇸 NLPXF - FRA 🇩🇪 NB7📈 #Nickel #Mining #Exploration #Canada #Basemetals #CriticalMinerals #BatteryMetals #Miningstocks #Stockstowatch #Smallcapstocks #Stockmarketinvesting #Investments #Investors #TSXV #Stocks #Resource #Investing #Juniormining For more information visit https://lnkd.in/gF9i8Z95

Had an awesome chat with Bart Jaworski CEO at Group Eleven Resources a Canadian Listed Mining "Exploration" Company looking for base metals in Ireland! An exploration company searches for; and identifies areas of land which are prospective for natural resources to be mined in the future. They drill exploration holes looking for things like stratigraphy (layering), faulting and if lucky, presence of resources. Bart co-founded Group Eleven 9 years ago and it's showing promising results so far with a big Zinc discovery in Limerick! Companies like Group Eleven have huge potential now due to the commodities bull market and the ever increasing demand for green tech. Whilst exploration companies are not without their risks, they have huge upside potential for investors if you chose the right ones - a great team and a steady stream of drilling results (which Group Eleven has in store in 2024) is a good sign.

We are pleased to be advising on forward initiatives around Kincora Copper Limited's very significant copper-gold asset portfolio in the world-class Southern Gobi copper belt, Mongolia. This region is a rapidly emerging source of new copper supply and with an existing 426Kt copper and 437Koz gold resource inventory, plus significant exploration target, on a small portion of one of three underexplored porphyry complexes, this portfolio offers genuine Tier-1 potential. Coupled with a fully operational mining camp, Mongolia based team on the ground and large scale walk up drill targets (both green and brownfield) the portfolio offers unique leverage to the copper price moving forward and it would be hard to find a better in-country entrée than this on a global basis.   Key highlights include: • 100% interest and district-scale project portfolio (175sqkm) • Three underexplored, large and near surface porphyry intrusive complexes (smallest > 2.5 x 4.5km) • Maiden 194Mt JORC Mineral Resource Estimate and further 100-300Mt exploration target on a small, and considered less prospective, section of one of these intrusive complexes • Oxide resource on a mining license offering near term development potential • Established in-country team of experienced geologists with supporting infrastructure and Ulaanbaatar office • Year-round field camp • One of, if not the largest, proprietary databases held by a western group for new opportunities in Mongolia A high impact, modest cost 2024 field program is proposed, including resource expansion and new discovery drilling, coupled with gaining a second mining license and advancing desktop studies for an open cut oxide development project. This opportunity presents as a potential ‘company maker’ for the right group. With Kincora’s focus on progressing their core Australian assets there is flexibility for how new groups might be involved in taking the opportunity forward.   A comprehensive slide deck is available at https://lnkd.in/gxJ_gfJY
