Lincoln Minerals continues graphite hunt on the Eyre Peninsula of South Australia

Lincoln Minerals is moving graphite focused exploiron ore prices chartration ahead at speed on the Eyre Peninsula of South Australia, with the company already having bulk samples of flake graphite from two deposits.

The samples are from the historic Koppio Graphite Mine and Kookaburra Gully graphite deposits. Metallurgical testwork in Germany and Austria but have been assayed at grades ranging up to, respectively, 32.0% and 28.6% TGC.

Lincoln has now also commenced airborne electromagnetic surveys over the company's Koppio-Kookaburra Gully and Cockabidnie-Campoona graphite projects, which will take around a week - weather permitting - with results taking another 4 to 6 weeks to be received.

Graphite has been widely identifiable from these types of surveys in the past due to its high electrical conductivity.

The data and maps will facilitate detailed mapping of the highly conductive graphite horizons to delineate additional exploration drilling targets.

The Koppio-Kookaburra Gully survey is located on southern Eyre Peninsula 35 kilometres from the port of Port Lincoln, and will be a detailed 100 metre line-spaced survey over the historic Koppio Graphite Mine and Kookaburra Gully graphite deposits.

The Cockabidnie-Campoona survey is located northwest of Cleve on central Eyre Peninsula and is a larger 400 metre line-spaced survey covering the entire exploration license EL 4883.

The survey is supported by a South Australian Government PACE grant and covers the extensions of Archer Exploration Campoona and Sugarloaf Hill EM anomalies and Monax Mining Jamieson Tank EM anomaly.
