Forrestania Resources Limited announce the completion of its maiden lithium-focussed reverse circulation (RC) drilling at its Forrestania lithium project, in WA's Wheatbelt region. The company drilled 13 RC holes across three key prospects for 2,198m to test geochemical lithium anomalies and the extension of pegmatites intersected in historic drilling. 13 holes for 2,198m were completed as part of the Company's maiden lithium drill program.

Three holes were drilled at the Bounty East prospect, seven at Bannon and three at Gemcutter. Drill holes were completed to a minimum depth of 100m. The RC drilling focussed on testing geochemical anomalies and the extension of historic pegmatite intercepts at Bounty East and Bannon.

At Gemcutter, the drilling was designed to test an area between historical pegmatites recorded in RAB holes drilled at the Gem Mine and a diamond hole GCDD0001 located 150m to the east which intersected 2m @ 0.4% Li2O. The drilling also tested a gold target at the Gemcutter prospect. Favourable geology was intercepted as pegmatites at both Bounty East and Bannon prospects.

A total of 16 intervals up to 3m thick were logged as pegmatite within five of the drill holes. Further drilling is planned at each of the prospects as additional approvals and results become available. POW approval is already in place at Bannon and further drilling will be considered, pending assay results.
