Alex Stewart Laboratory, Jujuy, Argentina, reported the following grades:

lithium;
-
200 metres
encountered grades of
690
milligrams/litre
Li.
Results from hole ARDHH-08 represent important exploration progress for the northeastern portion of the Tolar 6 property, where the company does not have any mineral resource estimates contributing to the previously reported 3,342,000-tonne lithium carbonate equivalent resource associated with the project. Due to the variability in lithium grades encountered, additional depth-specific sampling of the brines have been recommended by the qualified person overseeing the project.
Salar de Arizaro, Argentina: resource calculation
Steve Cochrane, president and chief executive officer, remarked:
"The results from this new hole signify an important step in our strategic road map, propelling us closer towards maximizing the full potential of our claims. We are confident in the Arizaro project's potential to become a premier lithium carbonate producer, and we're energized by the promise of continued progress."
Lithium Chile's president for South America, Jose de Castro, says: "We are immensely proud of our exceptional team in Argentina, whose unique experience in previous lithium projects has been instrumental in creating value for all stakeholders, including the communities we work with. As we continue to progress towards a revised resource report and feasibility study to support production economics, we remain steadfast in our mission to add value and realize the full potential of the Arizaro project."
