Scotch Creek Ventures Inc. (SCV) has retained Tom Carpenter, consulting geophysicist, to conduct a gravity survey at Highlands West Project.

The gravity survey will be carried out to map subsurface density contrasts caused by geological structures on a portion of Scotch Creek’s 5,960-acre Highlands West Project which lays adjacent to Albemarle’s Silver Peak mine, the only lithium producing mine in the United States.

Scotch Creek Geologist, Robert D. Marvin, commented, “Our Highlands West Project is situated in a very strategic part of Clayton Valley. The gravity grid we are surveying right now on the project is designed to map deeper sections of the target Esmeralda Formation in Clayton Valley.”

“In addition to the gravity work, a detailed seismic survey is planned for Highlands this spring to map these faults beneath gravel cover, to better understand the project’s subsurface geology,” added Marvin.

  • At or near station 2205 to a depth of approximately 600 metres.
  • At or near station 2303 to a depth of approximately 400 metres.

Scotch Creek is a mineral exploration company, focused on the acquisition, exploration, and development of lithium projects located in tier-one North American mining jurisdictions.
