Si6 Metals is launching its third concurrent drilling program in Brazil's Lithium Valley, with 20 auger holes planned at Padre Paraiso to follow up lithium and rare earths anomalies thrown up by earlier soil sampling. The holes will be spaced 400m apart to an average depth of around 12m, chasing a 103ppm lithium hit in the north-east of the prospect and a 710ppm TREO result in the south-east, while also profiling the regolith over previously identified thorium anomalies. Managing director Jim Malone points to the project's position roughly 40km from Sigma Lithium's Grota do Cirilo operation, with three of the company's ten Brazilian JV projects now being drilled simultaneously.
