AM Resources Identifies 49 New Pegmatites on its Significant Land Package in the Austrian Pegmatite Belt
March 28 2024 - 5:00AM
AM Resources Corporation (“
AM
Resources” or the “
Company”) (TSXV: AMR)
(Frankfurt: 76A), a dynamic junior mining company focused on the
exploration and development of high-potential pegmatite lithium
deposits, is pleased to announce the discovery of 49 new pegmatites
within an area of 12,32 km2. These pegmatites consolidate the
Company’s strategic position in one of Austria’s most prospective
lithium areas.
AM Resources’ 1,500
km2 land package
Valerie PropertyLocated just 1
km southwest of the Frederick property, the Valerie property hosts
27 pegmatites over an area of 7.2 km2. The average pegmatite length
is 203 metres and the longest one measures 447 metres.
Emilia PropertyLocated 8 km
southwest of the Frederick property, the 5.12 km2 Emilia property
hosts 22 pegmatites with the longest pegmatite measuring 505
metres long and 110 metres wide, showcasing the large scale
potential of the Austrian Pegmatite Belt.
Total length of pegmatites – a marker of
potential The cumulative length of pegmatites across the
Valerie and Emilia properties amounts to 8 km, indicative of the
substantial prospective lithium opportunity at hand.
David Grondin, CEO of AM Resources commented:
“The added strategic value of our Emilia and Valerie properties
cannot be overstated, with 8 km of pegmatite bodies to explore.
Combined with the 112 pegmatites on the Frederick property, we
could not be more excited to begin our exploration campaign.”
“In terms of logistics, we have the strong
advantage of having our technical team, led by Julien Desrosiers,
our COO Europe, all based in Europe, which will have a positive
impact on costs and acquisition opportunities. In addition, our
team has a strong understanding of the permitting and regulatory
process in Austria and has access to the necessary resources and
equipment to explore and develop our projects,” added Mr.
Grondin.
Geological setting, the importance of
the mica schists bodies1The geology of
the Austrian Pegmatite Belt is similar to geological formations in
Canada. The presence of mica schists is significant. Mica schists
are metamorphic rocks that have undergone high-temperature and
pressure changes. These conditions are favorable for the formation
of certain minerals, including spodumene, from the breakdown of
Li-bearing alumino-silicate mineral staurolite, which can contain
significant amounts of lithium (up to 0.3% Li2O). The breakdown of
staurolite can release lithium into the surrounding rock, where it
can be incorporated into pegmatites.
The partial melting of rocks is crucial for the
development of pegmatites in the Austroalpine Unit of the Eastern
Alps, where albite-spodumene pegmatites are associated with
metamorphic events. The evidence suggests pegmatites are derived
from the anatexis of Al-Li-rich metapelites under upper amphibolite
facies conditions.
Location, location, locationAs
previously reported, the AM Resources team has been actively
assembling a massive prospective land package with four key
elements at the core of its strategy: proven geology, proximity to
key markets, historical expertise, and a clear, proven mining code.
AM Resources’ Austrian properties are located within 620 km
of 14 planned battery plants and have direct access to an
extensive rail system.
