ASX ANNOUNCEMENT ASX: ASN, ASNOC, ASNOD OTC: ANSNF

Anson Granted Approval for Western Strategy

Resource Expansion Drilling Program

Highlights:

  • Approval for re-entry of the Mineral Canyon Fed 1-3 and Sunburst 1 wells granted by the USA, Department of Interior Bureau of Land Management (BLM)

  • Approval allows Anson to commence its Western Strategy Resource expansion program at the Paradox Lithium Project in Utah, USA

  • Anson plans to deliver a further substantial JORC resource increase by converting existing Inferred Resources and large Exploration Target into Indicated and Inferred Resources

  • Re-entry programs in the Western Strategy will target both the lithium-rich Mississippian brine aquifer and the clastic horizons

  • Anson recently completed its resource expansion program at the Cane Creek well and results are expected to deliver a significant JORC Resource upgrade in the near-term

Anson Resources Limited (ASX: ASN, ASNOC) (Anson or the Company) is pleased to announce that approval has been granted from the USA, Department of the Interior, Bureau of Land Management (BLM) for its western Resource expansion drilling program at the Paradox Lithium Project (the Project) Utah, USA.

The BLM has approved Anson’s Plan of Operation (POO) to re-enter and sample the Sunburst 1 and Mineral Canyon Fed 1-3 wells at the Project. This is a further significant step in the Company’s Resource expansion program and will allow the commencement of its Western resource expansion strategy.

Under its ‘Western Strategy’, Anson plans to conduct a re-entry program to convert the existing Inferred Resource and Exploration Target to a combined Indicated and Inferred Resource, see ASX Announcements of 10 September 2020 and 26 July 2021 .

In addition, it is proposed that some of the area located west of the targeted Sunburst and Mineral Canyon wells will be included in a further Resource update when the program at Sunburst and Mineral Canyon is completed. The additional Indicated Resource Area-of-Influence (AOI) which may be included is shown in Figure 1 by the magenta outline and the additional Inferred Resource is shown by the red outline.

Figure 1: Plan showing the proposed Areas of Interest for the Mississippian units in the Western Strategy

As a result of this proposed program of work, Anson has upgraded the Exploration Target of both the Mississippian Units and Pennsylvanian Paradox Units for the Western Strategy to a combined range of 2.10 billion tons to 2.56 billion tons of brine.

The contained lithium and ultimately the amount of lithium carbonate and contained bromine in the supersaturated brine is shown in Table 1. The Exploration Target areas for the Mississippian units are shown in Figure 1.

The new Exploration Target for the Paradox Lithium Project’s Western Strategy consists of 2.10Bt – 2.56Bt of brine grading 108 – 200ppm Li and 2,000 – 3,000ppm Br, see Table 1.

Table 1: The new Exploration Target Range with brine & grade variables.

Lithium is converted to lithium carbonate (Li2CO3) using a conversion factor of 5.32. Rounding errors may occur

The Exploration Target is conceptual in nature as there has been insufficient exploration undertaken on the project to define a mineral resource. It is uncertain that future exploration will result in a mineral resource.

Background to new Exploration Target

This Exploration Target for the Western Strategy does not include the additional Clastic Zones discovered in the recent Cane Creek 32-1 well drilling, see ASX Announcement, 29 September 2022 .

The new Exploration Target draws on data generated during previous drilling programs for oil and gas plus drill results from Anson’s exploration programs. It also uses the parameters from the recent JORC Resource upgrade, such as the laboratory determined specific yield.

The data and available assay results from these drilling programs have been used by a third party to estimate a brine Exploration Target. Exploration Target ranges have been estimated using a combination of historic drilling data and calculations carried out from exploration programs and therefore the level of accuracy of the Exploration Target range is more accurate.

Once the planned re-entries of the Sunburst and Mineral Canyon wells in the ‘Western Strategy, has been completed and the grades of the lithium-rich brines in the western extent of the project have been confirmed (along with porosity data collated from the core from historical wells in the region), the AOI may be increased to 3km in Clastic Zone 31 and the Mississippian units in a future Resource upgrade. This would result in most of the project area being classified in the Indicated category and also result in the newly pegged claims being re-classified as Indicated and Inferred.

Background to Western Resource Expansion Program

Sampling of brine from the Sunburst and Mineral Canyon wells will be tested for several minerals including lithium (Li), bromine (Br), Iodine (I) and Boron (B) concentrations in clastic horizons 17, 19, 29, 31 and 33 as well as the thick Mississippian units.

The wells are located approximately 1km from historic lithium-rich assayed brines. The thicknesses of each horizon containing the supersaturated brines are shown in Table 2. It can be seen from the thicknesses of the Mississippian units that it is a very large reservoir which may result in a significant increase in the Paradox Project’s JORC resource.

Sampling of the Mississippian units has been completed at the Long Canyon Unit 2 well and resulted in a 25% increase to the recorded historical value, (see ASX Announcement 11 July 2022 ).

Anson initially applied to re-enter the Mineral Canyon Fed 1-3 and Sunburst 1 wells to test the grades of lithium, bromine, boron and iodine contained in the Paradox Formation brines with the intent to increase and upgrade the Project’s estimated JORC Resource ( see ASX Announcement, 10 September 2020 ).

A revised POO was submitted to the BLM in April 2021 to extend the sampling program to enable testing of the Mississippian Units, which contain a much larger lithium-rich brine for lithium, bromine and other minerals ( see ASX Announcement, 6 April 2021 ).

The Sunburst well is located within 20 meters from the paved Island In The Sky Road, approx. 2 km from the existing pipeline corridor, that could be used to transport brine from the Paradox claims

Section 1 Sampling Techniques and Data

(Criteria in this section apply to all succeeding sections.)

Criteria JORC Code Explanation Commentary
Sampling techniques Nature and quality of sampling (e.g. cut channels, random chips, or specific
specialized industry standard measurement
tools appropriate to the
minerals under investigation, such as down hole gamma sondes, or
handheld XRF instruments, etc.). These examples should not be taken as
limiting the broad meaning of sampling.
Include reference to measures taken to ensure sample representivity and
the appropriate calibration of any measurement tools or systems used.
Aspects of the determination of mineralization that are Material to the Public
Report.
In cases where ‘industry standard’ work has been done this would be
relatively simple (e.g. ‘reverse circulation drilling was used to obtain 1 m
samples from which 3 kg was pulverized to produce a 30 g charge for fire
assay’). In other cases more explanation may be required, such as where
there is coarse gold that has inherent sampling problems. Unusual
commodities or mineralization types (e.g. submarine nodules) may warrant
disclosure of detailed information.
• Historical oil wells (Gold Bar Unit #2, Cane Creek
#32-1-25-20, Skyline Unit 1, and Long Canyon Unit 2) were utilized to access brine
bearing horizons for sampling. Geophysical logging was completed to determine
geologic relationships and guide casing perforation. Once perforated, a downhole
packer system was utilized to isolate individual clastic zones (production intervals) for
sampling. Perforation and packer isolated sampling moved from bottom to top to allow
for the use of a single element packer.
• Brine fluid samples were discharged from each sample interval to large 1,000 L plastic
totes. Samples were drawn from these totes to provide representative samples of the
complete volume sampled at each production interval.
• The brine samples were collected in clean plastic bottles. Each bottle was marked with
the location, sample interval, date and time of collection.
• Sampling techniques for the one well assayed in the Mississippian Formation are not
known.
Drilling Techniques Drill type (e.g. core, reverse circulation, open-hole hammer, rotary air
blast, auger, Bangka, sonic, etc.) and details (e.g. core diameter, triple or
standard tube, depth of diamond tails, facesampling bit or other type,
whether core is oriented and if so, by what method, etc.).
• Standard mud rotary drilling was utilized to re- enter historical oil wells. The wells had
been previously plugged and abandoned in some cases, requiring drill out of cement
abandonment plugs. All drilling fluids were flushed from the well casing prior to
perforation and sampling activities.
• Drilling techniques into the Mississippian are not known but the wells were deep
exploratorywells accessingoil andgas.
Drill Sample Recovery Method of recording and assessing core and chip sample recoveries
and results assessed.
Measures taken to maximise sample recovery and ensure representative
nature of the samples.
Whether a relationship exists between sample recovery and grade and
whether sample bias may have occurred due to preferential loss/gain
of fine/coarse material.
• No new drill holes were completed. Therefore, no drill chips, cuttings, or core was
available for review.
• Drilling procedures for well re-entry only produced cuttings from cement plugs.
• Drilling of the new units resulted in cuttings being collected at the same time as the
brine sampling was carried out.

venture with Voyageur Mineral Ltd. All other claims and leases are held 100% by
Anson’s U.S. based subsidiary, A1 Lithium Inc.
• The claims/leases are in good standing, with payment current to the relevant

Exploration Done by
Other Parties
Acknowledgment and appraisal of exploration by other parties.
Historical exploration for brines within the Paradox Basin includes only limited work in
the 1960s. No brine resource estimates have been completed in the area, nor has
there been any historical economic production of bromine or lithium from these fluids.

The historical data generated through oil and gas development in the Paradox
Formation has supplied some information on brine chemistry, however none of this
work is considered complete for inclusion in a formal resource estimate.
Geology Deposit type, geological setting and style of mineralization.
The geology of the Paradox Formation indicates a restricted marine basin, marked by
29 evaporite sequences. Brines that host bromine and lithium mineralization occur
within the saline facies of the Paradox Formation and are generally hosted in the more
permeable dolomite sediments.

Controls on the spatial distribution of certain salts (boron, bromine, lithium, magnesium,
etc.) within the clastic aquifers of the Paradox Basin is poorly understood but believed
to be in part dictated by the geochemistry of the surrounding depositional cycles, with
each likely associated with a unique geochemical signature.

The source and age of the brine requires further investigation.

Drill Hole Information A summary of all information material to the understanding of the exploration
results including a tabulation of the following information for all Material drill
holes:
-easting and northing of the drill hole collar
-elevation or RL (Reduced Level – elevation above sea level in meters)
of the drill hole collar
-dip and azimuth of the hole
-down hole length and interception depth
-hole length.
If the exclusion of this information is justified on the basis that the information
is not Material and this exclusion does not detract from the understanding
of the report, the Competent Person should clearly explain why this is the
case.

Four existing oil wells were re-entered and worked over in 2018 and 2019 to collected
brine samples. Although these wells may be directional, all wells are vertical (dip -90,
azimuth 0 degrees) through the stratigraphy of interest.

Detailed historical files on these oil wells were reviewed to plan the re-entry,
workover and sampling activities.

Following geophysical logging to confirm orientation within the cased well, potential
production intervals were perforated, isolated and sampled.

The target horizons in the Paradox Formation are approximately 1,800 meters
below ground surface.

Data on hundreds of historic wells is contained with a database published by the
Utah Geological Survey. Open File Report 600‘WELL DATABASE AND MAPS

maximum and/or minimum grade
Brine samples taken in holes were averaged (arithmetic average) without 14
Criteria JORC Code explanation Commentary truncations (e.g. cutting of
high grades) and cut-off grades are usually Material and should be stated.
Where aggregate intercepts incorporate short lengths of high-grade results
and longer lengths of low-grade results, the procedure used for such
aggregation should be stated and some typical examples of such
aggregations should be shown in detail.
The assumptions used for any reporting of metal equivalent values should
be clearly stated.

No weighting or cut-off grades have been applied.
Relationship Between
Mineralization Widths
and Intercept Lengths
These relationships are particularly
important in the reporting of
Exploration Results.
If the geometry of the mineralization with respect to the drill hole angle is
known, its nature should be reported.
If it is not known and only the down hole lengths are reported, there should
be a clear statement to this effect (e.g. ‘down hole length, true width not
known’).

The sediments hosting the brine aquifer are interpreted to be essentially perpendicular
to the vertical oil wells. Therefore, all reported thicknesses are believed to be accurate.

Brines are collected and sampled over the entire perforated width of CZ31.

The Leadville Limestone is assumed to be porous and permeable over its entire
vertical width.
