VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Feb. 28, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Dajin Resources Corp. (“Dajin”) (DJI.V) (DJIFF) (C2U1.F) management is pleased to report that LSC Lithium Corporation (LSC) has completed phase one surface exploration of the northwest portion of the San Jose/Navidad mina located on the Salinas Grandes salar in the Province of Jujuy, Argentina.  The mina forms part of a 93,000 hectare land package being earned by LSC (51%).  To fulfill the terms of the earn-in agreement LSC must complete CDN$2,000,000 in expenditures.  LSC is the operator of the exploration project.

The 25 shallow brine samples cover an area of 550 hectares (5.5 km²) in the northwestern corner of the 4,300 hectare (43 km²) San Jose/Navidad mina.  Concentrations range from 281 mg/l to 1,353 mg/l, averaging 591 mg/l Lithium.   Click here to see Geochemical Map

Exploration Methodology

The 25 sample points were pre-planned on a 500m east/west and north/south grid, utilising the company geographical information system and located in the field with a hand held GPS.  At each sample site an auger drill was used to excavate an 8 inch diameter hole to a depth of 2m.  Thereafter a bailer was used to extract brine 0.5m to 1.0m below the phreatic level after the brine had been given time to settle over a 30 minute period.  The bailed brine was then decanted into four sterilized plastic litre size bottles and sealed without any air being trapped in the bottle.  There after the samples were delivered to the laboratory for analyses.

Sampling and QA/QC

Argentina." data-reactid="17">Brine sampling involved collection of brine from the sample pits by a bailer and decanted into a 20-litre container, which was flushed with fresh brine several times prior to collection of the sample.  Brine was poured into 1-litre sample bottles which had been previously flushed with fresh brine from the 20-litre container several times.  Sample bottles were filled to the top to eliminate the inclusion of air and sealed with a leak-proof lid.  Samples were labelled and labels covered with clear tape to prevent erasure of sample information.  All samples remained in the possession of the site geologist until delivery to Alex Stewart Laboratory (ASA) in Jujuy, Argentina.
