Metal Energy Corp. announced that the planned diamond drill and brine testing program has started at the SourceRock lithium brine project near Thunder Bay, Ontario. The drill program has been planned for one initial drill hole down to 700 metres to assess the brine and rock characteristics using a suite of downhole geophysical surveys to qualify the brine system within the sedimentary rocks.

Water sampling and other tests will then be performed to determine fluid constituents and water flow parameters. Pending the initial drill hole results, the Company is funded for an additional one to two drill holes on the Project.
