Peloton Minerals Corporation (CSE Symbol: PMC) (OTCQB Symbol: PMCCF) has received the results from an airborne geophysical survey conducted earlier this year on the Company’s North Elko Lithium Project (NELP) located in northeastern Nevada. Receipt of this data will enable the Company to incorporate the information into the selection of drill locations.
In summary, the airborne geophysical data shows north to north-east (NNE) high angle faults and north-west (NW) through-going structures in the subsurface that are coincident with NW ridges with hectorite and other hydrothermal minerals at surface, as corroborated by mapping, airborne hyperspectral imaging, outcrop and soil chemistry, and extensive XRD mineralogy.
The airborne survey conducted was a high-resolution, fixed-wing geophysical survey recording Horizontal Magnetic Gradient, Radiometric (gamma ray) and VLF-EM including resistivity data over NELP and some surrounding areas. The survey covered the same area as an earlier airborne hyperspectral imaging survey, with 63 north-south traverse lines flown at 200-meter spacings and 5 east-west control lines at 2,000-meter intervals, together totaling 535.5-line kilometers.
Peloton President and CEO Edward (Ted) Ellwood commented, “This survey is part of a systematic surface exploration program conducted over the past two field seasons at NELP. The data collected will be invaluable as the company moves toward the drilling phases of the project.”
NELP is located immediately adjacent to a high-grade lithium deposit discovered in 2023 by Surge Battery Metals in north-eastern Nevada. NELP is about 37 square kilometers (14.25 square miles) in size and is 100% owned with no royalties outstanding. Peloton exploration work to date is comprised of an airborne hyperspectral survey, airborne Magnetics, Radiometric and VLF-EM surveys, geologic mapping, soil geochemistry over a 32 square kilometre grid, prospecting, XRD analysis on over 1,000 surface samples, and surface tTEM geophysics. Peloton plans to begin drilling at NELP later this month and will make a further announcement about that program when drilling commences.
