Zulu Lithium and Tantalum Project Update
Excellent Lithium Grades in the First Results from the Drilling Programme
Premier African Minerals Limited (AIM: PREM), the London quoted mining exploration and production company, is pleased to report that significant lithium grades have been recorded from the current 2,500 metre drilling programme at the company's Zulu Lithium and Tantalum Project ("Zulu") in Zimbabwe.
Highlights:
-- Greater than 2% Lithium (as Li(2) O) grades reported over bore hole intersections of up to 20 metres.
-- Massive lithium enriched mineralised intersections in all 8 holes drilled to date.
George Roach, Premier's CEO, commented:
"These early lithium results have confirmed the historic data and our expectations that Zulu has the hallmarks of a significant lithium and tantalum enriched pegmatite. Lithium grades of up to 2.67% and enriched drill core lengths of up to 5 metres, contained within a 38 metre wide zone with over 20 metres grading in excess of 2%, are seldom seen. This data supports our belief that Zulu is potentially amongst the best hard rock lithium exploration projects at this time."
