Pursuit Minerals posts 809mg/L lithium grade at Rio Grande Sur

Pursuit Minerals (ASX:PUR) announced its deepest lithium grade at the Salta project in Argentina, reporting a result of 809mg/L lithium. The company extracted this figure from DDH-3, where packer testing occurred between depths of 399.2m and 404.0m. This measurement marks a significant increase compared to shallower results from the same interval, which yielded 298.4mg/L. Consequently, the deeper sample represents roughly 2.7 times the concentration of the upper test. Testing stopped at approximately 560m after identifying multiple brine-bearing geological units. Over 20 additional packer samples are currently undergoing laboratory analysis, extending depths to about 550m below the highest grade interval. Mito operates as a primary growth area within the northern section of the Rio Grande salar. Initial sampling in July confirmed highly saline formation brine, though lithium assays for that earlier test remain pending. Geophysical reprocessing previously defined a conductive system spanning from about 250m to over 1km deep.
