Tearlach Resources Limited (TSXV: TEA) (OTC: TELHF) (FRANKFURT: V44) (“Tearlach” or the “Company”) is pleased to provide an update on progress with its summer exploration program on the Georgina Properties, Jellicoe, northwestern Ontario. The Properties, consisting of the Georgina Stairs, Georgina East and newly staked claims, cover approximately 239 square kilometres (Figure 1) and are being explored for pegmatite-hosted lithium mineralization similar to that hosted on Rock Tech’s Georgia Lake Property to the west. Fieldwork consisting of geological mapping and outcrop sampling commenced in mid-May, and to date, approximately 20% of the Properties have been covered.
Highlights:
A key milestone is the discovery of eleven pegmatite outcrops, including both sodium and potassium-rich varieties. These are the first documented pegmatites on the property, and the presence of both sodic and potassic types indicates that fractionation of the pegmatite melt has occurred, which could generate lithium-rich end member components. Tearlach’s ongoing geochemical sampling program will focus on establishing geochemical and mineralogical vectors towards possible lithium-enriched areas of the system.
