Perpetual Resources' successful exploration in Brazil

Perpetual Resources (ASX:PEC) has successfully completed Phase 1 of its exploration program at the Isabella Lithium Project in Brazil's Lithium Valley. This phase focused on identifying spodumene-bearing pegmatite trends, which are key indicators of lithium mineralization. The exploration revealed multiple spodumene occurrences with mineralized trends extending over 1km, indicating further lithium potential.

Outlook and future plans for Isabella Project

Perpetual Resources has identified promising lithium mineralization at the Isabella Lithium Project, with spodumene-bearing trends over 1km. The company plans to conduct additional reconnaissance trips in November, targeting further exploration and initiating environmental and landowner approvals. The aim is to commence a maiden drilling campaign in the first half of 2025. The proximity to major lithium projects enhances the project's strategic importance. Perpetual is focused on developing critical minerals, aligning with global energy demands.

Executive commentary on exploration success

Artisanal workings have been instrumental in guiding exploration and providing access to subsurface geology. The findings suggest the potential for parallel structures outside the main exploration corridors, indicating further lithium occurrences within the license area.
