By 2030, the United States and its partners will establish secure battery materials and technology supply chain that supports longterm U.S. economic competitiveness and equitable job creation, enables decarbonization, advances social justice, and meets national security requirements1

SEYMOUR Mapped pegmatites 1
Pathway markers to substantial potential resource growth
- History – Regional exploration commenced in 1950 by Government Geologists and Archean Greenstone Belt was delineated through Seymour.
- Pegmatites – Two large pegmatites were mapped by Prospector Nelson Aubry and subsequently converted to a JORC Resource.
- Exploration – Numerous other pegmatites have been mapped across the entire Seymour project with no apparent control of mineralisation…….


SEYMOUR Recent geophysics 1
Sharp delineation of structural controls
• Exploration target of 22 – 26 Mt @ 0.8-1.5% Li20 with 7km of strike identified
The potential quantity and grade is conceptual in nature, there has been insufficient exploration to estimate a Mineral Resource and it is uncertain if further exploration will result in the estimation of a Mineral Resource. See Appendix Exploration target

1: ADV – ASX Announced 6th March 2019, Substantial Increase in Mineral Resources at Seymour Lake.

APPENDIX Exploration targets
Qualifying Statement for the Exploration Targets
The potential quantity and grade is conceptual in nature, there has been insufficient exploration to estimate a Mineral Resource and it is uncertain if further exploration will result in the estimation of a Mineral Resource
Geological Setting
All the Claims (Seymour, Root & Wisa) host lithium bearing pegmatites which sit within the fractioned lithium zone close to their magmatic source
Strike
Drilling, surface sampling, aerial ortho-mosaics and topographic mapping (LiDAR) have been used to determine the approximate strike length of the pegmatites
Depth
Drilling at Seymour and Root have confirmed the pegmatites can exceed 250m in depth, thus a depth of 500m has been applied
Thickness
Implicit Modelling has been utilised to determine the thickness of the pegmatites and then extrapolated along strike and down dip using the parameters mentioned above
Tonnage
Specific gravity of 2.78 has been applied to the implicit model volumes to determine the tonnage
Grade
The Seymour JORC Resource hosted Inferred grades ranging from 0.8 to 1.5% Li2O , this has been used for the Exploration Targets
Exploration Activities
All exploration targets will be tested by field mapping and drilling over a period of 24 months
