Hole CV22-042 returned a continuous pegmatite interval of 159.7 metres grading 1.65% lithium oxide from 131.8 metres depth, including 9.0 metres of 4.12% from 249.5 metres. It was completed as a follow-up along strike eastwardly of the 2.22% lithium oxide over 70.1 metres intercept in drill hole CV22-017, which the company released on May 24.
Patriot also said hole CV22-044 was completed as a step-back to prior hole CV22‑017 to test the high-grade zone at depth and returned 86.2 metres grading 2.13% lithium oxide from 244.4 metres depth, including 18.0 metres of 3.07% from308.5 metres deep.
