EV Resources Limited has announced the results of channel sampling at its Los Lirios Antimony Project, revealing high-grade antimony mineralization with grades up to 25.2% Sb. The systematic sampling confirms a continuous carbonate replacement deposit (CRD) system with strong structural control. The sampling method provides superior sample representativity, avoiding issues typical of diamond drilling. High-grade antimony is closely associated with feeder structures, providing a vectoring tool for future drilling phases. The results will be incorporated into a maiden JORC Resource Estimate, expected by Q4 CY2026. EVR plans to continue exploration with Phase 2 drilling to further evaluate the deposit.
Key Points
EV Resources Ltd confirmed high-grade antimony mineralization at Los Lirios Antimony Project with grades up to 25.2% Sb.
Systematic channel sampling across historical underground workings validated a continuous, structurally controlled CRD system.
The project targets high-grade antimony within a carbonate replacement deposit (CRD) unit, spatially related to feeder structures.
A total of 54 channel samples were cut perpendicular to mineralized faces within four principal underground adit systems.
The samples showed strong structural control, with mineralization hosted in a silicified limestone replacement unit beneath a gypsum capping layer.
EV Resources aims to integrate these results into a maiden JORC Resource Estimate by Q4 CY2026.
The successful sampling de-risks the geological model and provides a reliable baseline for future exploration and resource modeling.
Future plans include Phase 2 drilling to test vectoring structures and advance towards a resource estimation model.
