#ASXNews FURTHER HIGH-GRADE LITHIUM DRILL INTERCEPTS LEPIDOLITE HILL PROJECT Eastern Resources Limited is pleased to announce further assay results from its maiden reverse circulation drilling program completed on the Lepidolite Hill Project in March 2024. The assay results from the first 15 drillholes has delivered exceptional results (ref ASX: EFE 21 March 2024). Assay results from the remaining 22 drill holes have now been received, and continues to demonstrate significant high-grade lithium mineralisation hosted by shallow lithium-bearing pegmatites along over 1 km of strike and extending to a minimum of 154m below surface. Drilling has intersected lithium mineralisation up to 31m in thickness at 0.86% Li2O (EFLHRC0023 67-98M). Individual 1 metre assays up to 3.87% Li2O (EFLHRC0002 51-56m) were returned. The latest set of assay results confirm the presence of lithium mineralisation throughout the Project with the majority of drill holes completed to date intersecting multiple lithium-bearing pegmatites at various depths. Most of the lithium appears to be related to petalite and/or spodumene mineralisation. These results are highlighted by returning multiple results in excess of 2% Li2O (refer to Table 1), with some intersections exceeding 3% Li2O.

First Phosphate Corp (CSE: PHOS) has announced plans to initiate a 25,000m drill program at its Bégin-Lamarche project. The program, funded by the recent successful financing that raised $8.2 million, aims to delineate a maiden resource estimate, paving the way for a subsequent preliminary economic assessment (PEA). The drilling plan involves targeting the three-kilometre-long #phosphate mineralization strike zone, with drilling at every 100-meter section and at 50-meter intervals within each section. First Phosphate said it will start with three drill rigs, with one additional rig mobilized per week. During the summer of 2023, First Phosphate conducted a preliminary drill program at Bégin-Lamarche, resulting in 21 holes and a total of 4,544 metres of drilling.

Forrestania Resources Ltd (ASX:FRS) has struck high-grade #iron ore mineralisation in the first reverse circulation (RC) drilling program targeting the metal at the Koolyanobbing Iron Project in Western Australia. The company drilled nine holes over 687 metres, looking for extensions to Mineral Resources Limited (ASX:MIN)’s Koolyanobbing mine, which held mineral reserves of 40.8 million tonnes at 58.2% iron as of 2019. The drilling program generated a highly promising intercept of 2 metres at 44.6% iron from 101 metres of depth, which demonstrated banded iron formation-style (BIF) mineralisation, as well as hematite (iron ore above 70%) and geothite, a kind of iron oxide.

Narryer Metals Limited (Narryer or the Company) (ASX:NYM) is pleased to provide an update on its completed initial drill program at the Rocky Gully REE project in Western Australia. The Company has identified carbonatite rock (figure 1) and related alteration in drill core, as well as evidence of REE / Scandium mineralisation from the first round of samples submitted for assay. This includes drillhole RGDD002 containing 9m @ 0.33% TREO from 13m, including 1 m at 0.47% TREO in the regolith clays, open downhole, with further assays to be received. The identification of carbonatite dykes in the core indicates the potential presence of a main carbonatite body at the Ivar Prospect, yet to be discovered. Executive Chairman Richard Bevan said “The initial drill program was successful in identifying a carbonatite intrusive at Rocky Gully, and the confirmation of REE and high-grade scandium mineralisation in our first assays is highly encouraging. Whilst we have only completed 2 diamond holes to-date, we have well defined targets for the next phase of drilling. This includes stepping out from the previous drill area at the Ivar Prospect with aircore drilling, and then RC drilling of both magnetic and gravity targets developed from ground surveys completed in 2023. • Initial two hole diamond drilling program at Rocky Gully intersects carbonatite dyke and related alteration halo • Drill program designed to test carbonatite mineralisation at Rocky Gully which has been confirmed: o Preliminary assays up to 0.47 % Total Rare Earth Oxide (TREO) and high-grade 512 ppm Scandium oxide (Sc2O3) o Drilling intervals include 9m at 0.33 % TREO and 7.3m @ 335 ppm Sc2O3. o Additional assay results still pending • Recent magnetic and gravity survey results identify potential primary carbonatite target west of initial drill holes • RC drilling program planned to test new high priority gravity and magnetic targets • Aircore drilling planned to test extent of high-grade scandium mineralisation.

Many types of drilling bits 🪨 used in groundwater, oil & gas exploration, 1. Tricone Bits 🔻 - These bits have three rotating cones with teeth that crush and break the rock formation. They are ideal for drilling through hard rock formations. 2. PDC Bits - Polycrystalline diamond compact (PDC) bits have a diamond-impregnated cutting surface that can drill through soft to medium-hard rock formations. 3. Tungsten Carbide Insert (TCI) Bits - These bits have tungsten carbide inserts that are brazed onto the steel body of the bit. They are ideal for drilling through abrasive rock formations. 4. Diamond Bits 💎 - These bits have a diamond-impregnated cutting surface that can drill through hard rock formations. They are typically used in diamond core drilling. 5. Hammer Bits hammer 🔨 - These bits use a hammering action to break up the rock formation. They are ideal for drilling through hard rock formations. The choice of drilling bit banks upon the type of rock formation being drilled and the depth of the borehole required. Experienced groundwater drilling professionals can help determine the best type of bit to use for a particular drilling project. Have a look at the types of Drilling but CGWB use from alluvium to hard rock terrains. #cgwb #bharat #exploration #geoscience

We're pleased to report results from a further 27 holes drilled at our large-scale Letlhakane Uranium Project in Botswana. Our CEO Greg Bittar commented: “More than halfway through our infill program at Letlhakane, we are extremely pleased with the drilling results to date. The objective of this program was to confirm the continuity, extent and quality of the Letlhakane ore body. 106 out of 109 holes completed to-date have intersected uranium mineralisation and confirm the continuity and grade. "We are now focused on the Gorgon West deposit, the largest of the group. Our infill drilling at Gorgon West has encountered individual intercepts more than 12m thick and zones of multiple intercepts up to 60m thick. Uranium grades at Gorgon West are generally considered to be lower than those at Serule West, but these results indicate that there are narrow high-grade zones, with the latest intercepts grading up to 2,146ppm eU3O8, more than six times the current resource grade. "We have also commenced diamond drilling at Serule West which is important as we will not only use this part of the program for QAQC but also as a source of sample for metallurgical test work program that is being used to optimise the processing flowsheet.” Drilling is on track to be completed in September 2024, with updated MRE to follow, and a Letlhakane scoping level study remains on track for delivery in Q3.
