Lithium Chile (TSXV: LITH) issued communiqué saying that its Chilean operations have been minimally impacted by the recent protests taking place in the country with only some delays in approvals as most government offices have been closed.
Despite the delays, the Canadian company reported that it was able to file the exploration drilling notice of work for its Turi project. The document was presented to the National Service of Geology and Mines.
“We are extremely pleased that our Turi exploration continues to advance in spite of the current challenges facing Chile”
