Lion Rock Resources Inc. conducted a 15-hole Phase One drill program at the Volney Project in South Dakota, confirming a large, near-surface lithium-tin-tantalum system within spodumene-bearing LCT pegmatites. The mineralisation starts at surface and remains open in all directions, with potential for low-cost open-pit extraction supported by existing infrastructure such as grid power, all-season road access, and rail proximity. Planning for a Phase Two drill program is underway to advance exploration.
