Lithoquest Diamonds Commences 2018 Drill Program on the North Kimberley Diamond Project
Identifies Three New High Priority Targets
VANCOUVER, B.C., July 31, 2018 – Lithoquest Diamonds Inc. (TSX-V: LDI) (“Lithoquest”, or the
“Company”) today announced that it has initiated the 2018 drill program on its 100% owned North
Kimberley Diamond Project located in Western Australia.
A truck mounted diamond drill rig has arrived on site and has been deployed to Target 702 where the
Company recovered micro-diamonds from a small sample of outcrop (see April 2, 2018 news release).
Lithoquest anticipates drill testing targets 701 and 702 during the program. The drill rig is configured to
recover HQ and NQ sized core suitable for geological interpretation and diamond analysis, with the
results to be released as they become available.
In addition, field work currently underway on the property has identified three new high-priority kimberlite
targets. The targets are characterized by coincident ground geophysical anomalies and are supported by
historical results which include kimberlite indicator minerals as well as diamonds. An application for a
Program of Work to drill the new targets has been submitted to the Western Australia Department of
Mines, Industry Regulation and Safety. Field work to identify additional targets of interest will continue
through August.
