Global Lithium Resources Limited announced that further assay data has been received for its 100% owned Manna Lithium Project, located 100km east of Kalgoorlie. At the end of the Manna 2022 drilling program there was approximately 5,000 outstanding assays in the laboratory system. These assays were not included in the significant mineral resource estimate (MRE) upgrade announced by Global Lithium on 15th December 2022.

The assay results announced together with these outstanding approximately 3,500m of assays have not been included in the Scoping Study due for completion in First Quarter calendar year 2023. These assay results will be added to the current MRE at Manna, to further extend the known size and increase the confidence levels of the classification of the Manna Deposit. Within the 2022 drilling program, the RC rigs completed 49,071m of drilling along with 5,479m of Diamond core drilling.

A drilling campaign of this size carried out safely within a year, is a clear indication of the Company's commitment to develop the Manna Lithium deposit into a mine within the shortest possible timeframe. The 2023 exploration program is currently underway to map out the larger tenement area since reaching 100% ownership of the Manna Lithium Project through acquisition. This program will target prospective geological structures and host rocks for lithium deposits and follow known structural extensions of the current Manna deposit that previously lay outside the joint venture boundary.

Up to 30,000m of RC and Diamond drilling is planned for this program. The Diamond drilling (core) will be utilised as part of the metallurgical test program. The Manna Lithium Project hosts a Mineral Resource of 32.7Mt @ 1.0% Li2O.

The Company recently released an updated MRE with an extended drilling program continuing into 2023 to further expand the existing resource.
