Noram Expands Sampling and Geological Mapping on Spartan Portion of its Lithium Project in Nevada’s Clayton Valley

Vancouver, British Columbia (FSCwire) - Noram Ventures Inc. (TSX-Venture: NRM and Frankfurt: N7R) (“Noram” or the “Company”) is pleased to report a more extensive sampling and geological mapping program is underway on its Spartan claim group to better understand and expand on initial exploration results, and define which areas contain the highest lithium values.

The Spartan claim group, along with the contiguous Zeus and Hades claim groups, form Noram’s 100% owned South Block Extension that consists of 550 claims covering approximately 14,000 acres in the heart of the lithium-producing area of Nevada’s Clayton Valley (see Figure 1). The South Block Extension, which Noram recently acquired by staking through its wholly owned subsidiary Green Energy Resources, is located east of Pure Energy’s lithium project and within 2 kilometers of Albermarle’s Silver Peak mine that has been in production since the mid 1960s and is the only lithium brine operation in North America.

According to Noram’s independent technical consultant, Bradley Peek, MSc and Certified Professional Geologist:

“Recent sampling on the Spartan claim group has shown that there is a layer of tan colored sediments which lies on top of the green lithium-rich sediments. Lithium values ranging from 140 ppm to over 1,000 ppm with an average grade of 700 ppm lithium were recently reported on the McGee claims located just north of the Spartan claim group. It has now been supported that the green lithium-rich volcanic claystones dip beneath the tan surface sediments on the Spartan claims. This discovery, along with the discovery of high lithium values in the borehole on the adjacent Hades claim group, now extends the area of lithium-rich sediments to approximately 10 kilometers in a NNE-SSW direction. Geologic reconnaissance has shown that the thickness of the green sediments of the Esmeralda Formation is greater than 40 meters, at least in some areas, and the base of the unit has not yet been found.”

Once the geological mapping and sampling phases have been completed, shallow core drilling (60–80 feet or 18–24 meters) has been recommended on the Spartan, Hades and Zeus claim groups to provide a more in-depth understanding of the geology, lithium grades and thicknesses. Drill collar locations and the numbers of holes are currently being assessed by our onsite geological team.
