Cadence Minerals (AIM: KDNC; OTC: KDNCY) is pleased to note that ASX listed Evergreen Lithium Limited (“Evergreen”) (ASX: EG1) has announced the commencement of the next round of field work at its highly prospective Bynoe Project directly east of Core Lithium’s Finniss Mine. The commencement of the 2024 field program follows the approval of its Mine Management Plan (MMP), enabling EverGreen to commence high impact exploration activities at its flagship Bynoe project.

This initial auger program will operate for approximately eight weeks with samples analyzed in the field by pXRF. RAB/AC drilling contractors have been secured and are expected to commence drilling shortly to test higher priority areas for prospective for LCT pegmatites.

Geochemical, geophysical and mapping activities completed to date demonstrate the potential for lithium bearing LCT pegmatite style mineralisation within EverGreen’s EL 31774 lease.

Highlights:

• Following receiving approval for its Mine Management Plan (MMP) auger sampling has commenced at the Bynoe Project.
• RAB/AC Drilling contractors have been secured and are scheduled to commence shortly.

Evergreen Exploration Manager Andrew Harwood commented: “Following the receipt of the approved MMP, our exploration team is now in the field undertaking the planned exploration program. The active auger program will help us explore under the thin cover layer and assist us to locate extensions of the pegmatite units identified by Core Lithium to our west.”

“With field conditions continuing to dry out following a record wet season, the team is also keen to get the RAB/AC drill rig into the field in the coming weeks. This drilling unit is quick and efficient at testing large areas of our high potential ground and will also be used to delineate shallow LCT pegmatite targets.”
