Galaxy Resources (ASX:GXY) is continuing to intersect high-grade lithium from its 2017 drilling campaign at the James Bay Project in Quebec, Canada.
Highlights from the most recent stage of drilling includes:
32.1 metres at 1.83% lithium from 55.45 metres;
98.8 metres at 1.62% lithium from surface; and
68.9 metres at 1.55% lithium from 16.15 metres.
The company had commenced a circa 31,000-metre diamond drilling campaign in late March to extend and develop the existing resource at James Bay.
29,300 meters of drilling has been completed to date, with the entire program expected to be completed by the end of August 2017.
There are visible pegmatite deposits at the surface and the drill program has been targeting circa 1,850 meters of pegmatite to the west of the James Bay Highway.
The ongoing successful drilling at James Bay has demonstrated the significant scale of the project.
Importantly, the results of the campaign will provide the essential inputs to the James Bay resource upgrade, as well as the feasibility studies to be completed.
The project will leverage off the existing infrastructure in Quebec, which is a premier location for an integrated upstream and downstream operation to be developed.
