Noram Receives Results for CVZ-66: High of 1540 ppm Intersection of 220ft (67.1 m) Averaging 1124 ppm of Lithium
Noram Ventures Inc. has successfully completed drilling core hole CVZ-66 at a depth of 462 feet, significantly expanding its lithium resource at the Zeus Property in Clayton Valley. The drilling revealed an interval thickness of 220 feet with mineralization still present at depths of 500 feet. The company reports some of the deepest and thickest high-grade lithium intersections in the area, with consistent lithium grades across various claystone types. Current estimates show 124 million tonnes at 1136 ppm lithium as Indicated Resource and 77 million tonnes at 1045 ppm as Inferred Resource.
- Successful completion of CVZ-66 drilling, expanding lithium resource.
- Encountered high-grade lithium mineralization at significant depths.
- Current resource estimates indicate 124 million tonnes at 1136 ppm lithium.
- None.
VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / March 2, 2021 / Noram Ventures Inc. ("Noram" or the "Company") (TSXV:NRM)(Frankfurt:N7R)(OTCQB:NRVTF) is pleased to announce the successful completion of CVZ-66. The Company completed core hole CVZ-66 at a depth of 462 feet (140.8 m). An interval thickness of 220 ft (67.1 m) was intersected from 212 ft (64.6 m) to 432 ft (131.7 m).
"We are incredibly proud of our progress to date and in particular this phase of drilling. The current resource has been expanded exponentially by successfully drilling previously unexplored areas of the Zeus Property to depths of 500 ft and still ending in mineralization. As far as we are aware, these are some of the deepest and thickest high grade intersections encountered in Clayton Valley" comments Anita Algie, CFO and Director.

"I am very encouraged by the consistent thickness and grade of the claystones encountered in our Phase V drilling. While the color of the claystones may vary, the high lithium grades have been constant thus far and each drill hole is adding tens of millions of tons to Noram's next resource estimate", comments Brad Peek, consulting geologist on all five phases of Noram's Clayton Valley exploration drilling.
