European Metals Holdings Limited (LON:EMH) has kicked off an infill drilling programme at Cinovec South in the Czech Republic
Six core drill holes for 2,800m are planned in areas where there is limited amount of data and 'gaps' in the resource model occur.
Results will form part of the study to optimise the current mine plan for the Cinovec lithium deposit.
Keith Coughlan, managing director, said: “The program will close two gaps in our newest block model, where 'n' blocks were established in the new block model due to paucity of data.
“This drilling program will convert the no-class blocks and a good part of the Inferred blocks into Indicated category, which will make them available for mine plan optimization.
“Based on geologic model, the no-class blocks are mostly in greisen and greisenized granite, which means we can expect higher Li [lithium] and Sn [tin] grades.”
