Reach Resources Limited (ASX: RR1 & RR1O) (“Reach” or “the Company”) is pleased to advise that Strike Drilling and DDH1 Drilling have both mobilised their drill rigs and crews to the Company’s 100% owned Morrissey Hill Lithium Project, late last week.

  • Morrissey Hill is located adjacent to Delta Lithium’s (ASX: DLI) Malinda Lithium Project, Yinnetharra WA
  • The maiden drill campaign consists of a proposed ~2500 RC (Strike Drilling) and ~2000 diamond drill hole (DDH1) program, concentrated on the Bonzer Pegmatite Field

The maiden drill program will consist of a proposed ~2500m RC and ~2000m diamond drill hole program concentrated on the Bonzer Pegmatite Field but may include reconnaissance holes at the Malibu Lithium prospect, the Swallowtail Copper prospect and further south of the Bonzer Pegmatite Field where a large number of outcropping pegmatites have been recently mapped and heritage cleared.

The program will include ~8-10 RC holes to approximately 100m to 300m depth and another 8-10 DDH to similar depths for ~4500m drilling in total. Holes are planned to assess grade, size and scale of the mapped pegmatites and test for the presence of “blind” sub-surface pegmatite bodies.
