Li-FT Power Hits 1.65% Lithium at BIG East With Mineralisation Open at Depth
Li-FT Power's latest drill results at the Yellowknife Lithium Project confirm grades above 1% Li₂O across three pegmatite targets — with mineralisation open at depth and to the south, pointing to potential resource expansion.
Key Takeaways
- Li-FT Power has confirmed grades above 1% Li₂O across three separate pegmatite targets — BIG East, Fi Main, and Ki — from 20 drill holes totalling 5,324 m at the Yellowknife Lithium Project.
- The best single intercept, YLP-0312 at BIG East, returned 26 m at 1.29% Li₂O including a high-grade core of 17 m at 1.65% Li₂O, demonstrating the system can deliver above-average grades within the broader mineralised corridor.
- Mineralisation at BIG East remains open to the south and at depth, with the most southerly hole (YLP-0320) hitting 17 m at 1.32% Li₂O at 200 m depth — a direct pointer to potential resource expansion beyond the October 2024 inferred estimate.
- Three deeper BIG East holes returned negligible spodumene, flagging grade variability at depth as a risk factor that future drilling will need to resolve before the resource can be upgraded.
- Geotechnical data collected from Fi Main and Ki during the 2025 summer programme supports future mine planning studies, marking a step beyond pure exploration toward early-stage development work.
