ASX ANNOUNCEMENT
15 July 2025
CHARIOT RAISES $1.60 MILLION THROUGH A PLACEMENT OF SHARES
HIGHLIGHTS:
-
shares at A$0.05 per share that will raise gross proceeds of A$1.6m.
-
The placement was well supported by strategic and long-term lithium investors.
-
The proceeds will be used by Chariot to complete its acquisition of a 66.7% interest in a highly prospective hard-rock lithium portfolio in Nigeria and finance landholding costs and exploration activities in Nigeria.
-
The Nigerian portfolio, which generated several thousand tonnes of spodumene concentrate exports between 2021 and 2024, offers Chariot a near-term opportunity to derive revenues from a Chinese customer base.
-
in Wyoming and claystone assets in Oregon and Nevada that offer exposure to the battery supply chain in the United States and the Nigerian portfolio that offers exposure to the battery supply chain in China.
Chariot Managing Director, Mr. Shanthar Pathmanathan, commented:
“The strong support received for this placement, particularly from cornerstone investors, is a clear endorsement of Chariot’s strategy and the exceptional potential of the newly acquired interests in the Nigerian lithium portfolio. These funds will enable us to aggressively advance exploration at the properties which exhibit visible spodumene at surface and have undergone some artisanal mining, but have never been drilled. With historical exports already validating both the quality of our ore and the market demand for it, we are confident that this placement positions Chariot for transformational growth. I would like to thank both our new and existing shareholders for their continued confidence and support.”

The Core Projects include Chariot’s flagship Black Mountain Project (which is prospective for hard rock lithium) in Wyoming, USA and the Resurgent Project (which is prospective for claystone lithium) in Nevada and Oregon, USA.
