Codelco signs early agreement with Salvador mine supervisors
The 36-month agreement will start on May 1, 2025.
CALGARY, Alberta, Jan. 26, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Pan American Energy Corp. (the “Company” or “Pan American”) (CSE: PNRG) (OTC PINK: PAANF) (FRA: SS6) is pleased to announce the Company has committed to drilling eleven (11) high priority drill targets for an estimated budget of C$1.5M starting February 2023 at its 17,334 acres Horizon Lithium Project (“Horizon”). RESPEC Consulting Inc. (“RESPEC”), Pan American’s strategic technical partner for Horizon, has been commissioned to design, manage, contract, and run the drilling program.
Pan American’s CEO, Jason Latkowcer, commented, “Our prior preparation leading up to this fully funded drilling program has instilled tremendous confidence in our chances of success. RESPEC recently completed a drilling program at a nearby lithium venture and is currently engaged to perform an independent analysis of American Battery Technology Corp’s exploration results to quantify the magnitude of their lithium-bearing resource immediately adjacent to Pan American’s Northern border. Upon completion, this program is designed to further quantify the existence of a valuable lithium deposit at Horizon. We will focus on overburden assessment, concentration of lithium, depth of mineralization, thickness of the ore zone, and the breadth of the resource.”
The Company is currently permitted for nineteen (19) drill holes and has submitted an amendment application to the Bureau of Land Management (“BLM”) to increase to a total of twenty-two (22) as seen in Figure 1. Drill targets will be re-evaluated upon the completion of the initial 11 high-priority drill holes.
