Snapshot	The Candelas Project, 100% owned by Galan, is supported by a full Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) and a JORC 2012 Resource, located approximately 40 km ESE of the HMW Project. The HMW Project is divided into four production phases, with Phase 4 targeting 60ktpa of lithium carbonate equivalent (LCE) by 2030, including lithium brine sourced from both HMW and Candelas.

Deposit type

• Brine

Summary:

The Candelas licence area is located within a structurally controlled basin (graben) and is part of the Hombre Muerto salar. The salar hosts a world-renowned lithium brine deposit. The lithium is sourced locally from weathered and altered felsic ignimbrites and is concentrated in brines hosted within basin fill alluvial sediments and evaporites.

The extents of the resource is approximately 2.7 km (easting) by 9.5 km (northing) by 600 m (vertical), giving a total volume of 15,390 km3.
