ASX: CXO

Finniss Lithium Project, NT

The Finniss Lithium Project is Australia’s most advanced new lithium projects on the ASX and places Core Lithium at the front line of new global lithium production.

Finniss has been awarded Australian Federal Government Major Project Status and is also one of the most capital efficient lithium projects and has arguably the best logistics chain to markets of any Australian lithium project.

The Project lies within 25km of port, power station, gas, rail and one hour by sealed road to workforce accommodated in Darwin and importantly to Darwin Port - Australia’s nearest port to Asia.

Lithium is the core element in batteries used to power electric vehicles. The Finniss Project boasts world-class, high-grade and high-quality lithium suitable for this use and other renewable energy sources.

March Quarter Activities

Federal Government awards Major Project Status for Finniss

In March, the Federal Government awarded Major Project Status (MPS) for the Finniss Project, which represents another major milestone in the Company’s path towards bringing this world-class lithium project into production.

MPS is the Federal Government’s recognition of the strategic significance of a project to Australia. It provides companies with extra support from the Major Projects Facilitation Agency, including a single-entry point for Australian Government approvals, project support and coordination with state and territory approvals.

The granting of MPS for Finniss was announced in a joint statement by Federal Minister for Industry, Science and Technology, the Hon Karen Andrews MP and Federal Minister for Resources, Water and Northern Australia, the Hon Keith Pitt MP.

High-grade lithium assays from Grants to strengthen Finniss Resource

In February, Core announced new drill results from the Grants Deposit that are expected to strengthen the current Resource at the Finniss Project.

The Grants Lithium Resource is the first spodumene pegmatite deposit Core plans to mine in the development schedule of the Finniss Lithium Project. Consequently, as a priority, over the last three months, Core has been undertaking a program of resource infill and expansion drilling at Grants (ASX:CXO 11/2/21 “High Grade Lithium Assays to Strengthen Finniss Resource”).

The most significant results include:

  • 31m @ 1.65% Li2O from 197m, including 16m @ 2.02% Li2O from 207m (FRCD021)

  • 36m @ 1.34% Li2O from 183m including 3m @ 3.38 % Li2O from 188m (FRCD020)

  • • 13m @ 1.68% Li2O from 263m, including 8m @ 2.04% Li2O from 263m, and 12m @ 1.60% Li2O from 280m (FRCD018)

  • 13m @ 0.62% Li2O from 309m (FMRD009)

  • 33m @ 1.49% Li2O from 181m (FRC219)

  • 17m @ 1.52% Li2O from 238m (FRC221)

These new drill results from Grants are expected to increase the size of reserves and the life of mine (LOM) through the conversion of Inferred Resources to Indicated Resources.

Rights acquired to multiple pegmatite mines adjacent to Finniss

Core signed an option agreement to acquire six granted Mineral Leases containing over 30 lithium pegmatite targets adjacent to the Finniss Project during the reporting period.

These granted MLs all have a history of tin and tantalum mining and production from pegmatites with similar chemistry as the high-grade spodumene pegmatites on Core’s adjacent Finniss Project tenements.

Core plans to commence assessment drilling of these exciting new lithium pegmatite targets as the 2021 field season begins and once approvals are received.

The Leviathan and Annie groups of pegmatites, which are the subject of the transaction, were discovered in the 1880’s and then mined for tin and tantalum intermittently for over one hundred years.

Assessment by Greenex (Greenbushes), Haddington (Altura) and Julia Corp during the period 1980-2000, for tin and tantalum, has since rediscovered over 30 pegmatites.

Initial drilling confirms gold mineralisation at Bynoe Gold Project

In February, scout RAB drilling found gold mineralisation beneath the newlydiscovered Far East belt at the Company’s wholly owned Bynoe Gold Project in the Northern Territory.

Drilling by Core confirmed gold mineralisation beneath the 1,600m long and 100- 150m wide series of gold bearing quartz veins along the Far East belt (ASX:CXO 17/2/21 “Drilling Confirms Gold Mineralisation at Bynoe Gold Project”).

Core’s first-pass, shallow drill program has drilled elevated gold intersections along the entire 1,600m length of this series of connected gold prospects.

Current assay results are considered highly encouraging given the reconnaissance nature of the drilling, as gold has now been identified in the subsurface within quartz veins.

Lower-level gold mineralisation has also been encountered in the enclosing Burrell Creek Formation host-rocks (metasediments).

Drilling results include:

  • Hurricane Prospect o 10m @ 1.5g/t Au from 7m (FER08 696955)

▪ Including 1m @ 10.6g/t Au from 12m o 7m @ 1.0g/t Au from surface to EOH (FER08 696975) ▪ including 2m @ 3.3g/t Au from 2m

  • Windswept Prospect

o 24.5m @ 0.5g/t Au from the surface to EOH (FER09.5 696931)

  • including 1m @ 5.3g/t Au from 22m

  • Far East

o 6m @ 1.0g/t Au from surface (FER01 697227) ▪ including 2m @ 2.4g/t Au from surface o 15m @ 0.5g/t Au from surface (FER01 697241) ▪ including 1m @ 3.8g/t Au from 14m

Approximately one-third (23) of the 74 holes drilled returned gold assays above 0.5g/t, and about two-thirds (50) of the drillholes intersected anomalous gold of above 100ppb.

These results are considered highly encouraging at this reconnaissance stage of exploration at the Far East belt.

The Company is incredibly excited as there are numerous other similar vein systems in the immediate area that have not been explored.

Gold exploration is expected to recommence in May as the 2021 exploration field season ramps up.

Subsequent Activities

Battery grade lithium hydroxide produced from Finniss concentrate

Subsequent to the end of the reporting period, Core announced that battery grade lithium hydroxide monohydrate (LH) from spodumene mineral concentrate from the Finniss Lithium Project had been produced.

The scoping level test work program demonstrated that the conventional ‘direct’ flowsheet can be applied to the processing of the spodumene concentrate sample to produce battery grade lithium hydroxide monohydrate (ASX:CXO 6/4/21 “Battery Grade Lithium Hydroxide from Finniss Project”).

In light of the success of this program and the recently granted Federal Government Major Projects status, Core is now considering the obvious downstream value potential given the Project’s synergies with the adjacent Middle-Arm industrial infrastructure near Darwin.

The production of battery grade LH provides Core and its customers confidence in the value of the Finniss Project, its importance to Australia’s northern regional economy, and strengthening Australia’s position further downstream in the global lithium battery supply chain.

Corporate

Global institutions back $40 million Placement

During the reporting period, Core received commitments for $40 million in additional capital through the Placement of 160 million new shares to institutional investors (Placement).

Demand for the Placement was overwhelming with shares issued to a select group of new high-quality institutional investors, primarily located in North America, Europe and Australia, aligned with the Company’s vision of soon becoming Australia’s next lithium producer.

Funds raised from the Placement are being used to support:

  • The efficient advancement of the 100% owned Finniss Lithium Project towards development and a potential Final Investment Decision (FID);

  • Resource growth drilling aiming to increase mine life to support expanded and extended Project revenues; and

  • Working capital requirements.

The Placement issue price of $0.25 per share equated to a 4% premium to the Company’s 20-day VWAP of $0.24 per share to 29 January 2021.

Appendix 5B expenditure disclosure

Core’s Appendix 5B includes amounts in item 6.1 and 6.2. The amounts in item 6.1 represent director fees paid to entities nominated by relevant directors. The amounts in item 6.2 represent managing director costs capitalised for exploration activity undertaken.

During the quarter, Core expended $1.95 million on exploration activities. This expenditure primarily represents exploration and development activities at Core’s Finniss Lithium Project in addition to the acquisition of rights to six granted Mineral Leases adjacent to the Company’s Finniss Lithium Project.
