The company has unique exposure to green metals, including lithium from its Rio Negro Project in Argentina, and uranium, vanadium, nickel, phosphate, and rare earths from its Berlin Project in Colombia.<\/p>\n<p>The company is currently advancing its newly acquired, district-scale Rio Negro Project, which hosts prospective lithium ground across Rio Negro, Chubut, and Neuqu\u00e9n Provinces in Argentina. The project consists of approximately 500,000 hectares of staked and granted claims and covers areas of known lithium pegmatite occurrences discovered and sampled in the 1960s by the Argentinian government, plus an additional tens of kilometres of prospective strike containing areas with similar geological and geophysical signatures.<\/p>\n<h3>Early mover advantage for hard rock lithium in Argentina<\/h3>\n<p>Argentina is one of the top lithium-producing countries in the world and produces approximately 10% of the world\u2019s lithium from the Lithium Triangle, known for lithium-bearing brines. Producing mines in this area have attracted major investments from automakers, including BMW and Toyota.<\/p>\n<p>Argentina is highly geologically prospective and, as such, has only recently been explored for its hard rock lithium potential. Lithium found in \u2018hard rock\u2019 is part of minerals hosted in pegmatites. Pegmatites are intruding rock units which form when mineral-rich magma intrudes from magma chambers into the crust. As the last of this magma cools, water and other minerals become concentrated. Green Shift\u2019s Rio Negro Project is located on a known pegmatite belt.<\/p>\n<p>Hard rock lithium and brine are two different sources of lithium. The choice between the two methods ultimately depends on factors such as the geological characteristics of the deposit, the cost of extraction, and environmental considerations.<\/p>\n<p>Green Shift\u2019s Rio Negro Project is focused on hard rock pegmatite, which takes into consideration the following advantages:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Higher purity: Lithium extracted from hard rock sources tends to have higher purity levels compared to lithium extracted from brine sources, which can contain impurities such as magnesium,\u00a0potassium, and sodium;<\/li>\n<li>Lower environmental impact: Hard rock mining has a lower environmental impact compared to other mining methods, such as open-pit mining or mountaintop removal mining. The small\u00a0footprint of underground mines reduces the impact on local ecosystems and communities;<\/li>\n<li>Lower water requirements: The mining process for hard rock lithium typically requires less water compared to brine extraction, which can be advantageous in regions with water scarcity;<\/li>\n<li>More stable supply: Hard rock lithium deposits are typically more geologically stable and less vulnerable to weather events such as droughts or floods, which can impact brine extraction operations;<\/li>\n<li>More diversified sources: Hard rock lithium deposits are found in a wider range of locations compared to brine deposits, which are primarily concentrated in South America\u2019s Lithium Triangle. This diversification can help mitigate geopolitical risks associated with relying on a single source of lithium;<\/li>\n<li>More predictable production: Because hard rock pegmatite deposits are typically located in stable geological formations, production can be more predictable compared to other mining methods, which may be subject to fluctuations in weather or climate; and<\/li>\n<li>Better supply chain control: Hard rock pegmatite mining operations tend to have more direct control over their supply chains compared to other lithium sources, which may rely on more complex supply chains involving multiple countries and stakeholders. This can help ensure a more stable and reliable lithium supply for end users.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>As the demand for lithium continues, Green Shift believes that hard rock lithium opportunities will continue to be at the forefront of supply.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_32311\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-32311\" style=\"width: 1920px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-32311\" src=\"https:\/\/www.innovationnewsnetwork.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Image-2.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.innovationnewsnetwork.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Image-2.jpeg 1920w, https:\/\/www.innovationnewsnetwork.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Image-2-300x169.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.innovationnewsnetwork.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Image-2-1024x576.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/www.innovationnewsnetwork.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Image-2-768x432.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.innovationnewsnetwork.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Image-2-1536x864.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/www.innovationnewsnetwork.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Image-2-696x392.jpeg 696w, https:\/\/www.innovationnewsnetwork.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Image-2-1068x601.jpeg 1068w, https:\/\/www.innovationnewsnetwork.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Image-2-100x56.jpeg 100w, https:\/\/www.innovationnewsnetwork.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Image-2-200x113.jpeg 200w, https:\/\/www.innovationnewsnetwork.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Image-2-400x225.jpeg 400w, https:\/\/www.innovationnewsnetwork.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Image-2-800x450.jpeg 800w, https:\/\/www.innovationnewsnetwork.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Image-2-747x420.jpeg 747w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-32311\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Rio Negro Project consisting of 500,000 hectares of staked and granted claims, covering known occurrences of known lithium pegmatite across Rio Negro, Chubut, and Neuqu\u00e9n Provinces in Argentina<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h3>Large and prospective land position<\/h3>\n<p>The Rio Negro Project consists of approximately 500,000 Ha of staked and granted claims stretching through the provinces of Chubut, Rio Negro, and Neuqu\u00e9n. The property covers a large portion of an intrusive belt known to host lithium mineralisation in pegmatites. Historic work on granitic stocks in the Manuel Choique (MC) area by the Argentine State in the 1960s identified 19 separate pegmatite bodies where assay results from 60 rock chip samples ranged from 0.6% Li<sub>2<\/sub>O to 4.1% Li<sub>2<\/sub>O, averaging 2.0% Li<sub>2<\/sub>O. Green Shift has not independently verified these reported grades; therefore, they cannot be relied upon until these areas are resampled.<\/p>\n<p>Over 800 structures (possible pegmatite bodies) have been mapped through satellite image interpretation in the MC pegmatite field. This work showed that the identified structures have a total strike length of over 100km. A recent field visit confirmed the existence of many of the target structures identified on satellite imagery. Many of the trenches sampled by the State in the 1960s are still open and accessible for resampling in the planned exploration programme.<\/p>\n<p>The project is located in an area of good, all-season access and extensive infrastructure. Permitting required for systematic exploration is underway.<\/p>\n<p>Green Shift plans to mobilise field crews to Rio Negro to commence its three-month Phase 1 exploration programme immediately. The plan of work consists of prospecting, rock chip sampling and trenching on the highest priority areas located in the Rio Negro Project. Using a Laser Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy (LIBS) analyser provides a real-time estimate of lithium grade. It, therefore, is an invaluable tool for the field teams to assess potential and prioritise targets for further work. After the estimation of grade by the LIBS analyser, the field teams then channel sample the priority areas for determination of lithium grade by an independent, certified laboratory. Official assays typically take approximately six weeks at certified labs.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_32312\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-32312\" style=\"width: 1920px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-32312\" src=\"https:\/\/www.innovationnewsnetwork.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Image-4.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.innovationnewsnetwork.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Image-4.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/www.innovationnewsnetwork.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Image-4-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.innovationnewsnetwork.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Image-4-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.innovationnewsnetwork.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Image-4-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.innovationnewsnetwork.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Image-4-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.innovationnewsnetwork.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Image-4-696x392.jpg 696w, https:\/\/www.innovationnewsnetwork.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Image-4-1068x601.jpg 1068w, https:\/\/www.innovationnewsnetwork.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Image-4-100x56.jpg 100w, https:\/\/www.innovationnewsnetwork.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Image-4-200x113.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.innovationnewsnetwork.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Image-4-400x225.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.innovationnewsnetwork.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Image-4-800x450.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.innovationnewsnetwork.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Image-4-747x420.jpg 747w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-32312\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Map of the Rio Negro Project, Argentina<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The Phase 1 work programme is expected to focus on areas surrounding the township of Comallo in Rio Negro Province.<\/p>\n<h3>In-country technical team in place, supported by strong capital markets, and mining expertise<\/h3>\n<p>Green Shift has a dedicated technical team in Argentina with combined experience of over 150 years.
