DPDH028 (53.5m @7.79% CuEq) and DPDH029 (157m @ 2.16%CuEq) are large step-outs from previously intercepted mineralization.
DPDH028 is deeper and to the west of all previous holes and is open in all directions.
Drilling to date has now encountered mineralization over a minimum north-south extent of just over 1km from DPDH025 in the north to DPDH029 in the south, a minimum vertical extent of just over 1km and a minimum east-west extent of also just over 1km.—That's a lot of Rock—and Copper! 🪨

Tianqi Lithium Corp.will pay $4.1 billionto buy Nutrien Ltd.'s 24 percent stake in Soc. Quimica & Minera de Chile SA, or SQM, in a deal that will entangle the biggest and fourth-biggest producers of the battery metal. The transaction could theoretically give Tianqi half of the board seatsThe transaction could theoretically give Tianqi half of the board seats, though other major shareholders who've historically guarded their interests have opposed such a path.
Here's how the lithium carbonate market is structured at present: North Carolina-based Albemarle Corp. is the market leader, with an 18 percent share, followed by Jiangxi Ganfeng Lithium Co. on 17 percent; SQM on 14 percent; and Tianqi on 12 percent.
