Pursuit Minerals
Overview
Pursuit Minerals Ltd. (ASX:PUR) is a top-tier lithium exploration and development company. The company is focused on its flagship Rio Grande Sur lithium project in the Salta Province of Argentina. The project is strategically located in an area known as the Lithium Triangle which hosts 50 percent of the global lithium resources and 40 percent of the current global lithium production. Argentina is the world’s third largest producer of lithium, behind Australia and Chile.
The project spans an area of 9,260 hectares on the Rio Grande Salar and is adjacent to several operating lithium mines and development operations, including Acradium Lithium’s Fenix lithium mine and the Olaroz lithium mine. The Rio Grande Salar holds a historical Ni 43-101 resource declared by LSC Lithium, formerly listed on the TSX prior to being acquired by Plus Petrol of 2.1 million tons (Mt) of lithium carbonate equivalent (LCE) with an average grade of 370 milligrams per litre (mg/L). This resource was mostly obtained from shallow drilling to 100 metres.
Pursuit delivered a maiden JORC Inferred Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE) of 251.3 kt LCE at 351 mg/L at the Rio Grande Sur project. The inferred resource relies on recent geophysical surveys and historical drilling, encompassing only a small portion of the known mineralization. Notably, excluding the highly promising Mito tenement from the current MRE highlights the unexplored potential for further resource expansion.
Pursuit has commenced its Stage 1 maiden drill program focused on upgrading the inferred resource. The drilling is anticipated to reach depths of 500 to 600 metres below surface, significantly deeper than the existing defined JORC mineral resource depth. Other companies in the region have obtained impressive results and grades of 900 mg/Li+ at depths of 500 metres, some of the highest known grades in Argentina. Pursuit expects a material resource upgrade in the second half of 2024 which will build on the inferred maiden resource.

In addition to having an attractive lithium resource, Pursuit is focused on the production of lithium carbonate to meet the supply side response to growing lithium demand. Recently, the company announced the first phase of operations of its 250 tons per annum (tpa) pilot plant to produce lithium carbonate. The plant will generate both technical and battery grade lithium carbonate at a purity of 99.95 percent, employing a conventional evaporation process.
Pursuit has submitted advanced environmental permits for the construction of the 250 tpa evaporation ponds and Stage 2 drill program at the northern tenement of the Rio Grande Sur project.
The establishment of the ponds is expected to take place in the latter part of 2024, pending environmental approvals. The ponds and the plant are planned to be situated on the Sal Rio 02 tenement enabling the possibility of initiating the first production of lithium carbonate on-site in 2025.
Pursuit is targeting continuous production at Rio Grande Salar and expects the current setup to be scalable to produce 15,000 to 20,000tpa of technical and battery grade lithium carbonate.
250-ton lithium carbonate pilot plant
The company’s focus on Argentina has several advantages. The new government, led by its president Javier Milei has signaled a market-friendly and pro-business policy shift. This should be a positive development for lithium miners given that Argentina has one of the largest lithium reserves in the world. Argentina holds 21 percent of the world’s 105 million tons of lithium resources, second only to Bolivia, according to the United States Geological Survey’s Lithium Statistics and Information 2024 report.
Lithium is in great demand driven by the growth in electric vehicles (EVs). Bloomberg NEF estimates lithium demand to jump by 225 percent to 2.6 Mt of LCE by 2030, translating into a CAGR of 16 percent. In a net-zero scenario, Bloomberg pegs the demand at 3.6 Mt of LCE by 2030, a CAGR of 19 percent.
The company remains focused on project execution that will deliver long-term shareholder value, including the completion of stage 1 drilling, JORC resource upgrade, first production of lithium carbonate and increasing production capacity to 250 tpa, and receipt of environmental permits, all within the first half of 2024.
In addition, Pursuit has identified the following catalysts over the next 12 months:
- Q3/Q4 2024: start of evaporation pond construction at Rio Grande, off-take agreement, relocation of 250 tpa pilot plant to Rio Grande.
- Q4 2024/Q1 2025: Detailed mineral resource study for commercial scale lithium carbonate operation; stage 2 drilling and JORC resource upgrade; first production from 250 tpa plant could commence as early as Q4 of 2025.
Company Highlights
- Pursuit Minerals is an ASX-listed company focused on advancing a pre-production lithium brine operation in Argentina.
- The company’s flagship Rio Grande Sur project covers 9,233 hectares on the Rio Grande Salar, in the Salta Province of Argentina located in the Lithium Triangle. The region is home to 50 percent of global lithium resources and 40 percent of world production.
- The acreage owned by Pursuit is situated within an Ni 43-101 inferred resource of 2.1 million metric tons of lithium carbonate equivalent (LCE), with an average grade of 370 milligrams per litre (mg/L) extending to a depth of 100 metres.
- Pursuit delivered a maiden JORC Inferred Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE) of 251.3 kt LCE at 351 mg/L at the Rio Grande Sur Project. With its current Stage 1 drilling program currently underway, Pursuit is targeting a material resource upgrade in the second quarter of 2024, which will build on the recent inferred maiden resource.
- The company has commenced the first phase of operations to produce lithium carbonate at its recently commissioned pilot plant, which is expected to achieve an operational capacity of 250 tons per annum (tpa). This is a significant milestone in the journey to advance toward the first production at Rio Grande Sur.
- Despite temporary fluctuations in lithium carbonate prices, the market continues to demonstrate resilience, with long-term projections indicating a significant 225 percent surge to reach 2.6 million tons of LCE worldwide by 2030.
Key Project
Rio Grande Sur Lithium Project
The Rio Grande Sur is the company’s flagship lithium project. The project comprises five tenements that span 9,233 hectares and are located in Rio Grande Salar in Salta province, Argentina. The region has benefited from historical exploration that yielded an NI 43-101 resource of 2.19 Mt LCE @ 374 mg/L, at inferred category.
During Q4 2023, Pursuit announced a maiden JORC inferred mineral resource estimate of 251.3 kt LCE at 351 mg/L at the Rio Grande Sur project. Following this, Pursuit is currently undertaking a maiden drill program to upgrade the inferred resource. Stage 1 of the drill program will comprise four diamond drill holes on the southern tenements. The first two holes will be drilled at the Sal Rio II and Maria Magdelena tenements.
The drilling is anticipated to reach depths of 500 to 600 metres below surface, significantly deeper than the existing defined JORC mineral resource depth. The drilling commenced in Q1 2024, and Pursuit is targeting a material resource upgrade in the second quarter of 2024. Further drilling is expected following the completion of the Stage 1 program. The Stage 2 drilling program is anticipated to occur in the second half of 2024, after which Pursuit is targeting a feasibility study.

ACME Lithium to Acquire 90% interest in Cimarron Gold Project in Nye County, Nevada and Provides Corporate Update
ACME Lithium Inc. (CSE: ACME) (OTCQB: ACLHF) (the "Company", or "ACME") is pleased to announce that it has signed a purchase agreement for a 90% interest in 31 unpatented lode mining claims comprising the Cimarron Gold Project ("Project") in Nye County, Nevada from Crestview Exploration Inc. (CSE: CRS) ("CRS"). The Project is a high grade, highly prospective exploration opportunity with a drill-indicated historic gold resource, and a second target area with mineralized drill intercepts that remain open in several directions.
ACME's 90% interest in the Project will be acquired for aggregate consideration of US$149,000 in cash and 1,000,000 Shares (collectively the "Purchase Price"), delivered as follows:
- ACME has paid CRS the sum of US$124,000 and will issue 500,000 Shares on closing; and
- ACME will pay to CRS an additional US$25,000 and deliver an additional 500,000 Shares within six months of closing.
Upon payment of the Purchase Price in full, ACME will own a 90% interest in the Project, and CRS will own a 10% interest in the Project. Thereafter, ACME will be responsible for all exploration and development costs of the Project up to and until such time as it has received a Preliminary Economic Assessment pertaining to all or any part of the Project (the "Trigger Date"). Until the Trigger Date, ACME will have full discretion as to operations involving the Project, including any disposition thereof.
After the Trigger Date a joint venture will then be formed between ACME and CRS and an accompanying definitive agreement governing the same will be entered into by the Parties for further ownership and development of the Project (the "Joint Venture"), which agreement will include the following basic terms:
- Initial ownership will be held 90% by ACME and 10% by CRS;
- Each party will be responsible for its pro-rata share of expenses from and after the Trigger Date;
- ACME's deemed capital contributions to the Joint Venture as of the Trigger Date ("ACME's Contributions") will be the aggregate amount it has paid toward the Purchase Price hereunder together with all costs and expenditures subsequently incurred toward exploration and development of the Project (with an amount equal to 10% thereof as administrative costs); and CRS's deemed capital contributions as of the Trigger Date will be an amount calculated as: ACME's Contributions / 0.9 - ACME's Contributions;
- ACME will be the operator of the Project; and will be solely responsible for determining work programs and budgets, and will continue to have full discretion as to operations involving the Project, including any disposition thereof;
- Following the Trigger Date, any failure of a party to contribute its pro-rata share of expenses will result in dilution of such party's interest; and
- At any time, ACME may acquire one-half of CRS's interest, being 5% in the Joint Venture (to hold a 95% interest) for USD $500,000.
- The 31 claims are subject to a 2.5% net smelter royalty (NSR) being retained by Nevada Select Royalty Inc. on production from (i) 13 claims and any property within a one mile area of interest; and (ii) 18 claims staked by Crestview.
THE PROJECT
Located at the north end of the San Antonio Mountains in the historic San Antonio (Cimarron) Mining District, the Project is approximately eighteen miles north of Tonopah in Nye County, Nevada. It comprises 31 unpatented lode mining claims near the historic San Antonio Mine workings and immediately adjacent ground. The prospect has drill ready targets, subject to permitting, and offers a significant opportunity to establish a NI43-101 compliant gold resource.
Regionally, the Project is at the intersection of two prominent gold trends: the Walker-Lane trend which runs approximately NW and hosts a number of mines including Bullfrog, Goldfield, and Rawhide; and an approximately NNE trend of gold mines including Manhattan, Gold Hill, and Kinross's "world-class" Round Mountain, which is located 28 miles away, and recorded over 15 million ounces of gold as of 2021.
Project Highlights:
- The Project includes an extensive historic record of drill results (190 holes), with high grade intercepts which included 11 meters of 4.46 g/t, 23 meters of 4.49 g/t and 46 meters of 3.94 g/t
- Past drilling outlined a historic gold resource starting at surface of approximately 50,000 ounces (1987 non NI43-101 compliant)
- The Project has good access near infrastructure and has a number of drill sites already built
- Mineral intercepts remain open in several directions
- The target is a shallow, low sulfidation oxide gold system with strong structural control.

Exploration by both major and junior mining companies from 1980 through 2004, including Newmont and Echo Bay, identified gold mineralization in three discrete areas in the immediate Cimarron Mine area.
Sampling of surface outcrops and underground adits by previous explorers reported gold assays from quartz-adularia-quartz veining as high as 107 g/t and 30.2 g/t (3.12 and 0.88 oz/ton, respectively). Table 1 lists examples of high-grade assays collected by the various mining groups (Bullion River Gold Corp., Feb. 2004).

This resource is not considered to be compliant with NI 43-101 standards. Additional drilling with application of proper standards and check assays would be required to verify this historical estimate. A qualified person has not done sufficient work to classify the estimate as a current mineral resource or mineral reserve. ACME is not treating this historical estimate as a current mineral resource or mineral reserve.
In 2021, Crestview drilled 4 diamond core holes in the known resource area. All of the holes intercepted anomalous mineralization. SA-01 and SA-03 were drilled approximately 200 meters apart and each intercepted significant zones of gold mineralization which may represent a wide area of oxide, heap-leachable gold mineralization starting at or near surface.
