AM Resources Identifies 26 New Pegmatites for a Total of 187 Pegmatites on its 1,500 km² Land Package in Austria
First Group
The Company has identified 8 large pegmatites with lengths varying between 329 metres and 887 metres, with the most extensive pegmatite measuring an impressive 281 metres in width.
Second Group
An additional 18 pegmatites ranging from 102 metres to 560 metres in length were discovered, with the thickest pegmatite reaching 195 metres in width. This group's diversity in size and shape adds to the prospectivity of AM Resources’ holdings. Many of these pegmatites are located within mica schists, a geological setting favorable for the presence of lithium-bearing minerals.
David Grondin, CEO of AM Resources commented: “Since the acquisition, we've been compiling the data available to us in preparation for our upcoming exploration program scheduled for June. We are very pleased with the number and size of the pegmatites found so far. Once we finish compiling the data, we'll have a better picture of the work that needs to be done to fully evaluate the lithium potential of our properties.”
Location, Location, Location
As 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.

Large New Lithium and Gold Anomalies Identified Over Highly - Prospective Cave Hill Greenstone Belts
- Highly-anomalous lithium and gold targets identified from soil sampling across the Company’s extensive 700 square kilometres (sq.km) Cave Hill Project tenements in WA’s world-class Eastern Goldfields gold, nickel and lithium province (see Figure 1).
- The largest new lithium anomaly, located in the southern part of E15/1844 (Figure 1), is over 5km x 5km and is associated with a northeast-trending fault corridor intersecting an extensive buried greenstone corridor identified from magnetic imagery (Figure 2). This is a similar setting to other high-grade lithium deposits in the region, including the Kangaroo Hills discovery which has produced lithium-spodumene intersections of up to 29m @ 1.36% Li2O1, and the Mt Marion Project which has a large Mineral Resource of 71.3Mt @ 1.37% Li2O2 (see Figure 1).
- Several highly-anomalous gold results also produced from this broad 400m x 400m sampling program, including values of up to 32ppb Au - more than 10 times background in this soil covered area (see Figure 3).
- This extensive and highly prospective >100km strike-length greenstone corridor remains virtually untested and is a continuation of the belt which hosts the Kangaroo Hills lithium discovery1, the 2.8Moz2 Coolgardie Goldfield and the Nepean Nickel Mine (1.1Mt at 3.0% Ni produced3) (Figure 1).
- Extensive infill and extension soil sampling is set to commence to better define targeting for an initial aircore drilling program, to be followed by RC and/or diamond drilling to test for lithium-bearing pegmatites in bedrock and/or greenstone-hosted gold deposits.
SABRE RESOURCES CEO JON DUGDALE COMMENTED:
“The large lithium and gold soil anomalies we have identified across our extensive Cave Hill tenements indicate that the large, untested, greenstone corridor discovered within the project is highly-prospective for lithium-bearing pegmatites, as well as gold deposits.
“The Company will immediately commence infill sampling, and new sampling programs on other recently granted tenements, to define aircore drilling targets for lithium and gold deposits in the underlying greenstone lithologies.
“The Company has over 100km of strike of granted tenements over this newly identified greenstone corridor. The corridor is along strike and parallel to other greenstone belts which host major lithium, gold and nickel deposits in the region, such as the Mt Marion lithium deposit, the 2.8Moz Coolgardie Goldfield and the Nepean nickel mine. The only difference appears to be that the Cave Hill greenstone corridor is under shallow cover, which is why it has remained largely un-explored.
“We look forward to further defining these highly-anomalous lithium and gold zones and testing the bedrock potential for new lithium, gold and nickel sulphide discoveries”.

The results have been received from a further 876 auger soil samples collected on a 400m x 400m grid, mostly from the largest and most prospective tenement, E15/1844 (see Figure 1). An extensive greenstone belt has been identified from magnetics within this tenement and a series of northeast-trending faults are interpreted to intersect the soil-covered greenstone lithologies, which could host lithium-bearing pegmatites (see Figure 2 below).
