Patriot Lithium (ASX:PAT) completed its maiden surface sampling program on the northern tenement of Tassa on its Tassa project in Peru, according to a Friday filing with the Australian bourse.

Thirty-eight surface samples were collected from the Pachamayo target and dispatched for analysis, with results expected in the fourth quarter of the year, the filing said.

Additionally, the company will conduct a mapping and sampling program on Tassa 5 tenement further south to confirm and extend known mineralization along the 3.1-kilometer interpreted strike controlled by the Tassa Fault corridor, per the filing.
