Jourdan Resources (JOR) has confirmed high-grade lithium in a bulk sample at its Vallee property in Quebec.

The findings stem from assay results from the second batch of samples from the bulk sample.

The samples came in with grades of over 1.5 per cent Li2O.

Highlights from both batches totaling 47 samples received:

  • Lithium values were in the range of 6,120 ppm to 8,190 ppm with an average of 7,212 ppm
  • Lithium oxide values averaged 1.55 per cent and ranged from 1.31 per cent to 1.76 per cent
  • Beryllium values averaged 291 ppm, cesium averaged 7.36 ppm and niobium averaged 104 ppm
  • The rubidium average was 1,566 ppm with a tantalum average of 36 ppm and a barium average of 60 ppm

Rene Bharti, Jourdan’s CEO, commented,

“The second set of results validates the high lithium grades and provides further confidence in the lithium assets of Jourdan. The company plans to use the information gathered from the bulk sample to begin preparing for a summer drill program.

We anticipate that all of these activities will lead to defining an initial resource estimate at our Vallee property. Jourdan believes that it is on a strong path towards recognizing its goal of being a near-term lithium producer in Quebec.”

Jourdan Resources is a Canadian junior mining exploration company with properties in Quebec.

Jourdan Resources (JOR) is up by 27.27 per cent and is currently trading at $0.07 per share as of 9:30 am ET.
