After completion of construction of roads and drill pads, Dajin will start a four-hole drill programme at the project to identify lithium-bearing aquifers to depth.
The new wells will follow-up on the favourable surface lithium brine results that the company announced in June 2016.
Being permitted under the Nevada Division of Water Resources (State Engineer) and holding water rights at the field, Dajin has proposed the pump-test volumes for the wells up to 20 acre-feet per well.
Drilling deep wells with the capacity to discharge will enable the company to identify the concentration of lithium in the subsurface aquifer.
