anomalous lithium brine deposits
Colombus marsh
In 2016 Caeneus discovered highly anomalous concentrations of lithium brines within a shallow aquifer at the Columbus Marsh Project. Columbus Marsh contains a large mature saline basin surrounded by epithermal hot springs.
- The Columbus Salt Marsh and nearby Fish Lake Valley were found to contain waters having relatively high lithium and potassium concentrations
- Part of these waters is likely derived from leaching of tertiary rocks containing saline minerals
- Reconnaissance sampling indicated anomalous amounts of lithium in shallow ground waters in the South-West of the playa
- Highest concentrations of lithium in ground water samples is 64mg/1
rhodes marsh
The Rhodes Marsh basin is located approximately 15km north to the NW of the company’s Columbus Marsh Project. The Company believes that the Rhodes Marsh Project holds many similarities to such basins as Columbus Marsh and the Clayton Valley, and is therefore highly prospective for Lithium Brines
