VANCOUVER, BC / May 29, 2024 / Spark Energy Minerals Inc., (“Spark” or the “Company” (CSE: EMIN) (OTC: MTEHF) (Frankfurt: 8PC)
announced today that the Company has commenced an exploration program over its strategic Brazilian tenement portfolio. Spark Energy Mineral’s tenement portfolio covers an area of over 103k Ha across the mineral rich states of Minas Gerais (66k k Ha), Ceara (16k Ha) and Rio Grande de Norde (21k Ha). In Minas Gerais, the Company has consolidated its position of contiguous tenements within the prospective “Lithium Valley” of the Eastern Brazilian Pegmatite Province.
This “Lithium Valley” is considered as one of the world’s premier lithium bearing pegmatite provinces with numerous spodumene (and other related lithium minerals) deposits already in production (Sigma Lithium Corp.) and/or being developed (Lithium Ionic Corp., Atlas Lithium Corp.). The province is also considered prospective for other important and related elements including Niobium – Tantalum and Tin, Gemstones, Industrial Minerals and Rare Earth Elements.
Jon Hill, VP Exploration commented “we are highly motivated to commence exploration and advance towards drilling. The proximity and apparent equivalence of the geological setting of Spark´s extensive contiguous tenement (66 kHa), less than 25km from Sigma Lithium’s “Groto do Cirilo” mine supports the potential for discovery in this area.”
To complement its cornerstone assets in Minas Gerais, the Company is also well positioned with large contiguous tenement packages in the newly emerging pegmatite provinces of Ceara and Rio Grande de Norde.
Eugene Hodgson, Chair & CEO stated, “The Company aims to progress generative exploration to the point of initial drill targeting in the “Lithium Valley” over the next 12 months”. A multi-disciplinary work program has been designed which will combine analysis and interpretation of geographically appropriate multi-spectral remote sensing techniques, public domain geochemical and geophysical databases with “boots on the ground” mapping and sampling. Initial results from the reprocessing and reinterpretation of public domain geophysics data and remote sensing are expected within the next 4 weeks. Logistics for mobilizing field teams for initial field target validation, mapping and geochemical sampling have commenced, which are scheduled to start early in the third quarter of 2024.
