    July 5, 2026, 9:05 PM EDT. Patagonia Lithium (ASX:PL3) started drilling Well 8 at its Cilon concession in Argentina after wrapping up an A$11.4 million capital raise. The target depth is 600m.

Patagonia also lodged its EIA response for a demo plant and got a positive ruling over Indigenous rights, moving permitting ahead. Well 8 will feed into an upgrade for the current Mineral Resource Estimate, which is 551,400 tonnes lithium carbonate equivalent at 294 mg/L. The planned demonstration plant is set for 1,000 tonnes annual capacity and is needed to unlock project finance. Next up: approvals from the community and government for construction.
