Arcadia Minerals Ltd (ASX:AM7) (Arcadia), the diversified exploration company targeting a suite of projects aimed at Tantalum, Lithium, Nickel, Copper and Gold in Namibia, is pleased to announce initial drilling results from follow-up drilling at the Swanson Tantalum Project.


HIGHLIGHTS

  • 83% (19 holes representing 907m of 1,100m) of the 27-hole drilling program1 completed
  • Sample analyses of 4 holes received
  • Holes confirmed open-cast potential of the E7 pegmatite
  • Assayed core confirms high grade intercepts with an average thickness of 2.31 m (from 1.40m to 3.67m) and a weighted average grade of 559 g/t Ta2O5 (479 to 705 g/t Ta2O5)
  • Further assay results from 15 holes completed are expected early in Q1 2022
  • Final ten holes of the 1,100m drilling program are expected to be completed early in Q1
  • An updated Mineral Resource to compliment the maiden JORC Mineral Resource of 1,2Mt2 (at an average grade of 412g/t Ta2O5, 76g/t Nb2O5 and 0.29% Li2O), previously derived from 23 drillholes completed over 3 pegmatites in September 2020, is expected to be declared soon after completion of the drilling program
  • Following receipt of a potentially enlarged Mineral Resource, a full feasibility study will be commenced on the project to investigate the economic potential of producing a 25% Ta2O5 concentrate at Swanson.

Arcadia Minerals Ltd (ASX:AM7) (Arcadia or the Company) is pleased to announce that 83% of the extended 1,100m drilling program at the Swanson Tantalite project, which was commenced within August 2021, have been completed.

Philip le Roux, the CEO of Arcadia commented:

We are optimistic that the encouraging results received so far will be replicated in the remaining drill holes, and thattheCompanycouldexpectsimilarmineralisationtrendsasthosethatwereevident from the assays of drill cores which contributed to the maiden Mineral Resource. As a result, we are hopeful to significantly extend the Mineral Resource. If the Mineral Resource is extended, the Company would contemplate immediately conducting the necessary studies to complete a full feasibility study over the extended Mineral Resource resident at Swanson.”

The extended drilling campaign is aimed at possibly increasing the opencast and up- dip extensions of 11 of the 15 pegmatites at the Swanson project and, if successful, to expand the maiden Mineral Resource announced on 23 September 2021 by the Company.
