RAIDEN COMMENCES LITHIUM EXPLORATION PROGRAM AT ROEBOURNE, ARROW & MT SHOLL PROJECTS
Highlights
- Detailed pegmatite and lithium mapping/sampling exploration program commenced across Roebourne, Arrow and Mt Sholl Projects
- Teams following up on initial reconnaissance outcrop sampling on Roebourne South which confirmed multiple high-grade, lithium-bearing pegmatites1
- o Significant rock chip results included:
- 2.22% Li2O sample R21160
- 0.98% Li2O sample R21163
- 0.37% Li2O sample R21168
- o Significant rock chip results included:
- Outcropping pegmatites noted across a 4-kilometre long pegmatite field on the Roebourne South project, with individual Li2O bearing pegmatites outcropping over a strike of 200 metres and up to 6 metres wide at surface
- Current program will evaluate all the Welcome Ground projects, as well as the Roebourne project, all of which are adjacent to the Andover lithium discovery.
- On completion of this transaction, Raiden will control a significant lithium exploration portfolio in the Andover Complex ~39km2 (Azure ~102km2 ), with a total of 460km2 portfolio of projects considered highly prospective for lithium pegmatite mineralisation in the Pilbara.

BULGARIA Cu, Au & Ag
AUSTRALIA Au, Cu, Ni & PGE Raiden Resources Limited (ASX: RDN) ("Raiden" or "the Company") is pleased to announce that it has commenced a program of detailed mapping and rock chip sampling across the Roebourne (E47/4061 & E47/4062), Arrow North (E47/3476) and Mt Sholl (E47/3181) areas.
The program includes detailed mapping of outcropping pegmatites and rock sampling at a greater density across the areas listed above.
The mapping and sampling program aims to follow up on the Company's recently announced high-grade, lithium bearing pegmatites on the Roebourne Project, immediately adjacent to Azure Mineral's Ltd (ASX:AZS) Andover lithium discovery where recent drilling has intersected up to 209.4m @ 1.42% Li2O from 219.0m in ANRD00173 (see Figures 1 & 2).
The program will follow up on the continuing reports of lithium bearing pegmatites by GreenTech Metals Ltd (ASX:GRE) at their Ruth Well and Osbourne Projects, with reported results of up to 3.6% Li2O in rock chips4,5, and how they relate to areas within Raiden's Mt Sholl Project that share similar geological settings (see Figure 4).
Planning of a detailed soil sampling program over areas with sediment cover, such as the northern Roebourne tenements, is also well advanced.
Mr Dusko Ljubojevic, Managing Director of Raiden commented: "With the current program, we hope to build on the potential defined in the initial and very limited scout sampling exercise on the recently acquired projects. In parallel, we will be evaluating the greater potential of the entire portfolio of projects in the Pilbara, including Mt Sholl and Arrow for Li-bearing pegmatites. We hope to achieve similar success across the other projects as the Roebourne project."

Roebourne Lithium Project
Raiden's recent reconnaissance mapping and sampling program over the two southern permits (E47/4061 & E47/4062), confirmed the presence of multiple pegmatites of varying widths and strike lengths, within an approximate 4-kilometre long pegmatite field. From the limited outcrop samples collected, several samples returned high Li2O values, where 20% of all collected samples returned either anomalous, or high-grade results.
The most significant result was obtained from sample R21160, which returned 2.22% Li2O, collected from a pegmatite which outcrops over a 200m strike and is observed to be up to 6m wide at the sampled location. Further samples identified lithium-bearing pegmatites, with high-grade Li2O results such as 0.98% Li2O returned from sample R21163.
As mentioned above Raiden has commenced a program of detailed mapping and sampling for lithium-bearing pegmatites, across those tenements (E47/4061 & E47/4062) where the rocks of the Andover Complex outcrop, to follow-up the earlier significant rock chip results.
In the northern Roebourne Project tenements, where a layer of thin recent sediments cover the interpreted Andover Complex rocks, Raiden is well advanced in the planning of a closespaced soil sampling program to assist in the generation of anomalies for future drill testing.

Arrow Lithium Project
As recently announced Raiden has entered into an option to acquire the Li-Cs-Ta rights from Arrow Minerals Limited (ASX:AMD) on its 100% owned Arrow project (E47/3476 and E47/3478)6 .
Historic exploration in the area has identified fertile and fractionated granitic intrusions, which may generate mineralised Li-Cs-Ta bearing (LCT) pegmatites. Previous rock chipping and field observations confirmed that the Satirist Granite was a potential source rock for LCT bearing pegmatites, which has been defined in the district.
The project lies within the folded and faulted siliciclastics, volcaniclastics and mafic sills of the Mallina Basin, which is part of the De Grey Supergroup (3010 to 2930 Ma). The Satirist Granite (2935 Ma) intrudes the southern portion of the project area and is considered to be the source of the lithium mineralisation in the district.
As part of the current exploration program, the Company will undertake detailed mapping and sampling of prospective areas within tenement E47/3476, as well as the re-analysis of soil sample pulps, collected by previous gold focused explorers , for Li-Cs-Ta mineralisation within the area.
