Arwen zone: New spodumene-bearing pegmatite discovered on Elrond
This spodumene -bearing pegmatite outcrop discovered on Elrond . Named the Arwen showing , it is
exposed over an area of approximately 250 metres by 100 metres and is shallowly dipping to the north.
This spodumene-bearing pegmatite remains open in all directions.
The Arwen showing exhibits strong mineralization, with spodumene crystals observed throughout the
entire outcrop, including a higher -grade zone measuring approximately 75 metres by 15 metres and
containing up to 30% spodumene. The spodumene crystals are well formed and reach up to 30
centimetres in length.
This new discovery lies within a larger a rea where other differentiated barren pegmatites are found .
Laboratory assay results are pending. Brunswick is planning to drill-test these new showings in 2024.

the Elrond project.
