Global Geoscience Ltd. said Dec. 12 that it has kicked off a maiden drill program at the Rhyolite Ridge lithium-boron project in Nevada.

The first two holes are being drilled at North Basin, which will be followed by a minimum of two holes at South Basin targeting extensions to the Searlesite zone.

Samples from the current drill program will be included in the metallurgical test work currently underway, the company noted.

Global Geoscience has the exclusive right to acquire the property under a June agreement.
