[AIS-TSXV; AISSF- OTCQB] reported seismic testing has detected three distinct aquifers over a broad area at its Chiron Project in the Pocitos Salar, Salta Province, Argentina. AIS has also completed the mass balance chem- istry and process engineering that will be used to determine the raw materials used to purify the lithium brines from its Guayatayoc Project. The data will be used in the design, engineering, and construc- tion of an 8-10,000-tonne lithium carbonate plant. The analysis used fractional crystal- lization and ion exchange resins to purify the lithium carbonate to higher than 99.5% lithium carbonate. The work was conducted in Salta and will be replicated at Guayatayoc to ensure that the reduction in air pressure has no material impact. Alba Minerals Ltd. [AA-TSXV; AXVEF-OTC] is exploring its 2,421-hect- are Quiron II property in the Pocitos Salar, Salta Province, Argentina. The com- pany identified a probable lithium brine aquifer at the road-accessible Quiron II property through interpretation of a Vertical Electrical Sounding (VES) survey. Alba has an option to earn a 100% inter- est in the 2,843-hectare Chascha Norte Project in the southeastern part of the Salar de Arizaro, Argentina, the largest yet unknown Salar in this district. Argentina Lithium & Energy Corp. [LIT-TSXV; PNXLF-OTCQB; OAY1-FSE] has an option to earn a 100% interest in the 20,500-hectare Arizaro Project in northwest Argentina. The road-acces- sible project is near power and rail. Geochemical, electrical surveys and three test holes have been completed. The com- pany has a 100% interest in the Incahuasi Project in Catamarca Province, Argentina with another 10,000 hectares under appli- cation. These projects are being prepared for drilling programs. Dajin Resources Corp. [DJI-TSXV; DJIFF-OTC; A1XF20-FSE] has a strategic partnership with LSC Lithium Corp. in Argentina and has over 93,000 hectares of land holdings. Under the agreement, LSC Lithium has access Enirgi Group's state- of-the art Direct Xtraction Process (DXP) technology for lithium brines The Enirgi Group has a demonstration plant at Salar del Rincon, Argentina that produces lithium carbonate. Surface sampling on the Salinas Grandes LSC/Dajin JV property of San Jose/Navidad has been completed. Surface pit sampling was conducted as part of the first phase of exploration. High grades were confirmed with concentrations rang- ing from 281 milligrams per litre (mg/L) to 1,353 mg/L lithium, averaging 591 mg/L. A total of 60% of assays were over 500 mg/L LITHIUM LEFT: Drilling operations at Neo Lithium's Tres Quebradas 3Q lithium brine project on the Puna Plateau, Catamarca Province, Argentina, Photo Courtesy Neo Lithium Corp.
