Pursuit Minerals

Pursuit Minerals (ASX:PUR) is an emerging pure-play on Argentina’s world class lithium and gold potential, advancing a dual-commodity platform designed for near-term development and long-term scale.

The Company’s flagship Rio Grande Sur Lithium Project in Salta hosts a 1.1 Mt LCE JORC resource and is underpinned by a fully operational pilot plant that has successfully produced 99.5 % lithium carbonate, validating commercial flowsheet design. A 5,000 tpa pre-feasibility study is now underway, targeting first small-scale production while positioning for modular expansion under Argentina’s emerging RIGI investment regime.

Complementing this, Pursuit has acquired the Sascha Marcelina Gold-Silver Project in Santa Cruz, a high-grade, drill-ready system within the prolific Deseado Massif, host to Tier-1 deposits such as Cerro Negro and Cerro Vanguardia. Historical drilling and geophysics confirm multiple mineralised vein corridors with bonanza-grade potential, offering a fast-track pathway to resource growth and discovery.

Through this focused platform, Pursuit delivers investors a pure, Argentina-centric exposure to two of the most strategic commodities of the decade: lithium for the energy transition and gold for value preservation supported by near-term development catalysts and significant exploration upside.

What are your key goals for the next 3, 6 and 12 months?

3 Months

Release of the 5,000 tpa Pre-Feasibility Study (PFS) for the Rio Grande Sur Lithium Project, defining a clear, staged pathway to commercial-scale production.

Continue steady-state operations at the 250 tpa Pilot Plant in Salta, producing 99.5 % Li₂CO₃ for qualification and offtake testing.

Commence mapping and initial drilling at the Sascha Marcelina Gold-Silver Project, targeting high-grade vein systems within the Deseado Massif.

6 Months

Maintain continuous lithium carbonate output from the Pilot Plant and advance environmental and engineering approvals for the relocation of the facility to the Rio Grande site.

Finalise offtake MoUs and financing discussions supported by pilot-scale data and PFS economics.

Deliver initial assay results from Sascha Marcelina drilling, refine structural and geophysical models, and plan follow-up deeper drilling across the Pellegrini and Estancia trends.

12 Months

Commence relocation and on-site commissioning of the Pilot Plant at Rio Grande, initiating small-scale production from the salar.

Advance the Bankable Feasibility Study (BFS) and 5,000–15,000 tpa expansion planning, including evaporation pond construction and long-lead procurement.

Execute Phase 2 drilling at Sascha Marcelina focused on step-out and deeper targets, aiming to define a maiden resource and demonstrate district-scale growth potential.

What do you think makes your company such a compelling investment?

Pursuit is a pure-play on Argentina with two high quality pillars. Rio Grande Sur combines an established 1.1 Mt LCE JORC resource with an operational pilot plant that has already produced 99.5% lithium carbonate, providing real operating data and a clear path to a 5,000 tpa development. Sascha Marcelina adds high-grade gold-silver discovery potential in the Deseado Massif, a province that hosts multiple Tier-1 epithermal systems. Together, these assets offer near-term technical de-risking, scalable growth and leverage to two strategic commodities: lithium for the energy transition, and gold for value preservation all within one Argentina focused platform.
