Greenwing progresses lithium brine drilling at San Jorge Project following site visit

HIGHLIGHTS

  • Greenwing has added a further three-drill holes to the initial drilling at the San Jorge Project in Catamarca Province, Argentina, and is currently drilling its fourth hole (SJDD04).

  • SJDD04 is currently at a depth of 250m, having drilled over 100 m of friable sands, with excellent visually determined porosity.

  • Following completion of holes SJDD04 through SJDD06 Greenwing is targeting delivery of a maiden resource at San Jorge in Q1 CY2024.

  • Results of the review are highly encouraging, with a sequence of volcanic ash and volcanic derived units in holes SJDD02 to SJDD04 that visually has encouraging porosity.

  • Lithium concentrations to date have returned ~200 mg/l (ASX announcement 27 November 2023), with concentration increasing at depth. Results from the base of hole SJDD01 and from SJDD03 are expected to be available shortly.

Greenwing Resources Ltd ( Greenwing or the Company ) (ASX:GW1) is pleased to provide an update on its current drilling program at the San Jorge Lithium Project in Argentina.

CHAIRMAN RICK ANTHON: “Greenwing management recently visited San Jorge to review results and plan for the continuation of the drilling program. We are very pleased with the results to date from San Jorge, returning consistent lithium concentrations of 200 mg/L on the peripheries of the project. The last hole in the initial program, to support an inaugural resource estimation, will be drilled toward the middle of the salar, to evaluate lithium concentration and porosity there.”

OVERVIEW

The San Jorge Project is in Catamarca Province an established mining jurisdiction with an established mining and services industry. Zijin Mining is progressing its substantial Tres Quabredas project in direct proximity to San Jorge, whilst building its processing capacity outside the town of Fiambala the nearest town to the San Jorge Project.

Greenwing senior management has recently competed a site visit to Catamarca (Figure 1) to review progress made to date and to plan for the continuation of this progress into 2024. Greenwing has established a well credentialed and experience team in Argentina including

The Company continues to engage key stakeholders and to date has conducted meetings with: the Mining Minister of Catamarca, the Argentine Ambassador to Australia, the Australian Ambassador to Argentina and the Mayor of Fiambala the nearest town to the San Jorge project.

Greenwing has established a well-equipped camp at site (figure 1 and 2) and moved immediately from its first three-hole program to add an additional three-holes providing additional coverage on the peripheries of the salar. Greenwing intends to table an initial Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE) post the completion of these 6 holes. Greenwing has also begun preparation of a road to the middle of the salar (Figure 3) to facilitate drilling in 2024 in the most prospective central part of the salar.

PROJECT GEOLOGY

Evaluation of the project geology has confirmed the eastern part of the salar is underlain by unconsolidated volcanic ash units, reworked volcanic material, and a thin fractured intermediate composition lava flow.

There are eight individual units that are readily correlated between holes SJDD002 and SJDD003 (Figures 4, 5). The units are generally friable, with sand-size material, and are interpreted to have significant specific yield porosity, although results have not yet been received from the porosity laboratory or from downhole geophysical logging of the holes, which have been cased with PVC casing, specifically to allow logging of the holes.

Metasediments on the eastern side of the salar (Figure 5) are confirmed to dip beneath the salar, where holes SJDD02 and SJDD03 intersected metasediments, which are expected to deepen to the west beneath the salar.

Hole SJDD01 (Figure 5) on the northwest side of the salar consists of an upper volcanic ash unit, overlying a series of highly fractured volcanic flows (basaltic to andesitic composition), that have brecciated and fractured upper and lower portions. This hole intersected metasediments at the bottom of the hole, which are fractured and packer sampling and a period of artesian flow from the lower part of this hole confirmed that the metasediments consistently produced lithium-bearing brine when sampled.

Holes SJDD05 and SJDD06 will evaluate the depth to the fractured metasediments and the porosity and permeability in the volcanic ash units and reworked volcanic material beneath the salar. This will provide sufficient geographical distribution of drill holes to undertake a maiden resource estimate.

GEOPHYSICS

Greenwing will undertake a reinterpretation of project geophysics using results of the first three holes to evaluate the correlation and improve interpretation of geophysics for a resource model. Based on the results of SJDD01 and SJDD02, brine is considered likely to extend north of TEM line 0, beneath the northern area of basalts (Figure 5).

ASSAY RESULTS

Assay results to the base of SJDD01 (at 216 m) and from SJDD03 will be provided shortly. Results to date from SJDD01 and SJDD02 indicate consistent lithium concentrations of around 200 mg/l. Lithium concentration increases down hole. Brine density and physical parameter information from the base of SJDD01 and from SJDD03 is equivalent to SJDD01 and SJDD02, suggesting lithium concentrations are likely to be similar.

MAIDEN RESOURCE ESTIMATE

Greenwing planned its initial drill programme around the western and northern margins of the San Jorge salar, as these are the most accessible areas. The TEM geophysical survey previously identified the presence of brine extending away from the salar edge, westward under volcanic flows. This has now been confirmed by drilling in SJDD01.

The brine characteristics were found to be similar between holes SJDD01 and SJDD02, with lithium concentrations in the order of 200 mg/L (see Table 1). The brine is undersaturated, with a density of 1.11 g/cc and a conductivity of approximately 150,000 uS/cm.

Three diamond holes to the bedrock depth have now been completed, defining the depth extent of the host volcanic sediments in the north of the salar and initial information on the distribution of lithium concentration and sediment type. The basin is interpreted to deepen south of where drilling has been completed to date.

The geological data is being incorporated into a Leapfrog geological model, to calibrate the geophysical data from the TEM and passive seismic surveys. The Leapfrog model will then be used to develop the Maiden Resource Estimate for the project.

SAN JORGE LITHIUM BRINE PROJECT BACKGROUND

Located in Catamarca Province, Argentina, within the Lithium Triangle (Figure 6) the San Jorge Project has a strong surface signature, with multiple brine samples confirming elevated lithium across the salar, with concentrations up to 285 mg/L lithium.

The TEM survey previously carried out mapped the extent of the brine body, on and off the salar, providing information on the likely changes in lithologies hosting brine. The survey successfully defined the brine body extending beneath lava flows and gravels west of the salar, extending up to 2.4 km west of the salar surface. Off the salar the survey has defined extension of the brine body to depths up to 500 metres deep. The conductivity responses are 1 ohm m or less, which is considered very positive for discovery of brine with potentially economic characteristics for lithium production.

PROJECT LOCATION AND EXPLORATION LICENSES

Catamarca Province is one of three provinces in the north of Argentina that host globally significant resources of lithium, within brine beneath Salars.

Extraction of lithium from brine has a lower overall carbon-footprint than from hard rock operations and is a key source of lithium for the electrical revolution, with electrification of transportation and development of large-scale battery storage to accompany renewable energy generation.

The San Francisco Salar covers 2,800 hectares and sits within the broader San Jorge Project area which consists of 15 granted exploration licenses. Greenwing is the sole owner of all mining tenure on the salar as well as the overall 36,000 hectares of surrounding the Salar which constitute the San Jorge Project (Figure 7).

Section 1 - Sampling Techniques and Data related San Jorge

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

Criteria JORC Code explanation Commentary
Sampling
techniques

Nature and quality of sampling
(eg cut channels, random chips,
or specific specialised 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
mineralisation that are Material to
the Public Report.

In cases where ‘industry standard’
work has been done this would
be relatively simple (eg ‘reverse
circulation drilling was used to
obtain 1 m samples from which 3
kg was pulverised 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
mineralisation types (eg
submarine nodules) may warrant
disclosure of detailed information.

The pre-collars from surface were drilled using
the Tricone drilling method, and chips were
logged as collected, to 30 m below surface,
depending on the hole

The pre-collar was then cemented in and HQ
Core drilled.

Core recovery from the HQ was carefully
measured by comparing the measured core to
the core runs and then a total recovery per
section determined.

HQ Drill core sampling was undertaken to
obtain representative samples of the
stratigraphy and sediments that host brine, for
porosity testing and evaluation of specific
yield, the brine that could be extracted.

Brine samples are being collected from single
packer sampling equipment as the hole is
deepened, with the packer segments inflated
to seal the hole above the sampling intervals,
with brine sample evacuated from beneath
the packer and pumped to the surface, where
physical parameters are monitored and
samples taken. Brine samples are collected in
triplicate and used for lithium analysis, with the
lithium dissolved in the brine hosted in pores
within core samples.

Porosity samples are collected in Lexan
polycarbonate tubes during the drilling, with
cores between porosity samples (taken every
12 m) collected in triple tubes and stores in
core boxes.

Conductivity and Density measurements are
taken with a field portable High Range Hanna
multi parameter meter and floating
densitometers.

Testing of the chemical composition (including
Lithium, Potassium, Magnesium concentrations
and those of other ions) of brines are
undertaken at a local Alex Stuart Group
laboratory in Mendoza, Argentina.

Transient Electromagnetic (TEM) geophysics
was previously undertaken on the surface of
the salar and surrounding area. The Transient
Electromagnetic method (TEM) used a 200 x
200 m loop that is moved between stations
located 400 m apart on east west lines. The
lines are separated by 1000 m in the north-
south direction.

TEM has proven to be a highly applicable
technique in and around salars, as the method
avoids the surface conductivity issues
associated with resistivity methods, such as
Vertical Electrical Soundings or resistivity
profiling.

Criteria JORC Code explanation Commentary

The TEM method has a lesser penetration on
the salar surface but sees through resistive
surface sediments and volcanics to define the
extension of brine beneath these units.

Highly conductive zones of <1 ohm m is
located beneath the salar surface, continuing
to the west under volcanic flow units,
surrounded by a zone of 1-2 ohm m resistivity

Survey lines were oriented perpendicular to the
elongationof the salar.
Drilling
techniques

Drill type (eg core, reverse
circulation, open-hole hammer,
rotary air blast, auger, Bangka,
sonic, etc) and details (eg core
diameter, triple or standard tube,
depth of diamond tails, face-
sampling bit, or other type,
whether core is oriented and if so,
by what method, etc).

The pre-collars from surface were drilled using
the Tricone drilling method; chips were logged
as collected, to the pre-collar depth, which
was nominally 30 m, but varied from hole to
hole.

The pre-collar was then cemented in (isolated)
and HQ Core drilled.

Core recovery from the HQ was carefully
measured by comparing the measured core to
the core runs and then a total recovery per
section determined.

HQ Drill core sampling was undertaken to
obtain representative samples of the
stratigraphy and sediments that host brine.

Drilling has been conducted using a diamond
drilling rig, with HQ drilling equipment. The hole
is drilled with the assistance of drilling mud. The
drilling produced cores with variable core
recovery, associated with unconsolidated
material, in particularly sandy intervals.
Recovery of these more friable sediments is
more difficult with diamond drilling, as this
material can be washed from the core barrel
during drilling.

Brackish water to dilute brine, obtained from
the salar surface near the drill hole, has been
used as drilling fluid for lubrication during
drilling,for mixing ofadditives andmuds.
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.

Diamond drill core was recovered in 1.5m
length intervals in the drilling triple (split) tubes,
and Lexan polycarbonate tubes used in place
of the triple tubes, to obtain samples for the
laboratory. Appropriate additives were used
for hole stability to maximize core recovery. The
core recovered from each run was measured
and compared to the length of each run to
calculate the recovery. Chip samples, for any
intervals drilled with rotary drilling, are collected
for each metre drilled and stored in
segmented plastic boxes for rotary drill holes.

Brine samples were collected at discrete
depths during the drilling using a single packer
over an 18 m interval (to isolate intervals of the
sediments and obtain samples from airlifting
brine from the sediment interval isolated
between the packers) open to the base of the
hole.

Additives and muds are used to maintain hole
stability andminimize samplewashing away

Criteria JORC Code explanation Commentary
from the triple tube.

As the brine (mineralisation) samples are taken
from inflows of the brine into the hole (and not
from the drill core – which has variable
recovery) they are largely independent of the
quality (recovery) of the core samples.
However, the permeability of the lithologies
where samples are taken is related to the rate
and potentially lithium grade of brine inflows.
Core recovery from the HQ was carefully
measured by comparing the measured core to
the core runs and then a total recovery per
section determined.

No relationship exists between core recovery
and lithium concentration, as the lithium is
present in brine, sampled independently of the
core samples. Brine is extracted using packer
sampling and the sediment material is not the
target for lithiumextraction.
Logging
Whether core and chip samples
have been geologically and
geotechnically logged to a level
of detail to support appropriate

mining studies and metallurgical
studies.

Diamond holes are logged by a geologist who
also supervised taking of samples for laboratory
porosity analysis (with samples drilled and

well as additional physical property testing.

Logging is both qualitative and quantitative in

portion of the Total Porosity that is retained by
clay and capillary bound sections of a

Specific Yield is a key parameter when
calculating a Lithium Brine Resource.

Physical samples of the core are also sent for
porosity laboratory analysis for measurements
of specific yield and total porosity. This
sampling is undertaken as a check on the BMR

Whether sample sizes are

Brine samples were collected by using an
inflatable packer to purge the hole of all fluid,
to minimise the possibility of contamination by
drilling fluid. The packer allowed sampling of
isolated sections of the hole every 18 m
(subject to hole conditions), allowing the
packer interval to re-fill with groundwater brine
following purging.

Samples were then taken from the relevant
section, with three well volumes of brine
purged where this was possible.

Field duplicate samples are collected in the
field. Single packer samples are taken during
the progression of drilling.

Brine sample (0.5 litre) sizes are considered
appropriate to be representative of the
formation brine.

Cores are geologically logged and ~20cm
intervals from the base of Lexan tubes are
collected every ~12 m. These samples are cut
from the bottom of the Lexan tubes and sealed
with caps to prevent moisture loss, before
sending to the porosity laboratory for testing.

Duplicate samples in the analysis chain were
submitted to Alex Stewart (Mendoza)
laboratories as unique samples (blind
duplicates).

Stable blank samples (distilled water) were
used to evaluate potential sample
contamination and were inserted in the
sample batches to measure any potential cross
contamination.

Samples were analysed for conductivity using
a hand-held Hanna pH/EC multiprobe on site,
to collect field parameters.

Regular calibration of the field equipment
using standards and buffers is being
undertaken.

Whether the orientation of
sampling achieves unbiased
sampling of possible structures
and the extent to which this is
known, considering the deposit
type.

If the relationship between the
drilling orientation and the
orientation of key mineralised
structures is considered to have
introduced a sampling bias, this
should be assessed and reported
if material.

The salar deposits that host lithium-bearing
brines consist of sub-horizontal beds and lenses
of volcanic derived sediments, volcanic ash,
and gravel and sand, along with volcanic
flows, depending on the location within the
salar.

Drilling is conducted in vertical holes,
perpendicular to the stratigraphy.
Sample
security

The measures taken to ensure
sample security.

Data was recorded and processed by trusted
employees and contractors and overseen by
management, ensuring the data was not
manipulated or altered.

Samples are transported from the drill sites to
secure storage at the camp daily.

Samples were transported to the Alex Stewart
laboratories for chemical analysis in sealed
rigid plastic bottles with sample numbers
clearly identified. Samples were transported by
a trusted member of the team to Catamarca,
where they were then sent by couriers to the
laboratories.
Audits or
reviews

The results of any audits or reviews
of sampling techniques and data.

An audit of the database has been conducted
by the CP and another Senior Consultant at
different times during the Project. The CP has
been onsite periodically during the sampling
program. The review included drilling practice,
geological logging, sampling methodologies
for brine quality analysis and, physical property
testing from drill core, QA/QC control measures
and data management. The practices being
undertaken were ascertained to be
appropriate, with constant review of the
database by independent personnel
recommended.

The properties were subject to brief and
inconclusive brine sampling previously, with
only 5 brine samples taken along the eastern
edge of the salar by the vendor. The sampling
completed in October 2021 confirmed
comparable results along the eastern side of
the salar, with higher results in the centre of the
salar.
Geology
Deposit type, geological setting
and style of mineralisation.

The project is a salar deposit, located in a
closed basin in the Andean Mountain range in
Northern Argentina.

The sediments within the salar consist of
volcanic ash, sedimentary breccias, sand, and
volcanic flows locally, which have
accumulated in the salar from terrestrial
sedimentation from the sides of the basin. Brine
hosting dissolved lithium is present in pore
spaces.

The sediments are interpreted to be essentially
flat lying with unconfined aquifer conditions
close to surface and semi-confined to
confined conditions at depth.

Geology was recorded during previous
excavationofshallowpitsforbrine sampling.
Drill hole
Information

A summary of all information

the exploration results including a
tabulation of the following
information for all Material drill
holes:
o easting and northing of the
drill hole collar
o elevation or RL (Reduced
Level – elevation above sea
level in metres) of the drill hole
collar
o dip and azimuth of the hole
o down hole length and
interception depth
o 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.

All holes are drilled vertically through the
unconsolidated clastic sediments and volcanic
units.

The coordinates of the drill holes in Zone 2 of
the local Argentine Gauss Kruger coordinate
system are: at an elevation of approximately
4000 m.

Details of drill holes are provided in Table 1.

No cutting of lithium concentrations was
justified nor undertaken.

Lithium samples are by nature composites of
brine over intervals of metres, due to the fluid
nature of brine.
Relationship
between
mineralisation
widths and
intercept
lengths

These relationships are particularly
important in the reporting of
Exploration Results.

If the geometry of the
mineralisation 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 (eg ‘down hole
length, true width not known’).

The sediments hosting brine are interpreted to
be essentially flat lying. The entire thickness of
sediments has potential to host lithium brine
(including fractured basement/bedrock), with
the water table within approximately 0.3 metre
of surface on the salar.

Mineralisation is interpreted to be horizontally
lying and drilling is perpendicular to this, so
intersections are considered true thicknesses
Brine is likely to extend to the base of the basin
and has been confirmed by drilling to extend
into fractures in the underlying older
bedrock/basement units of fractured
sandstones.

Mineralisation is continuous betweendrill holes.
Diagrams

Balanced
reporting

Where comprehensive reporting
of all Exploration Results is not
practicable, representative
reporting of both low and high
grades and/or widths should be
practiced avoiding misleading
reporting of Exploration Results.

Data regarding previous geophysics and the
initial drilling in SJDD01 through SJDD03 was
previously presented. Further information will be
provided as it becomes available.
