Global Lithium's Manna Lithium Project is an outcropping pegmatite exploration project located approximately 100km east of Kalgoorlie in the Goldfields region of Western Australia.
Manna is an outcropping pegmatite exploration project located approximately 100km east of Kalgoorlie, Western Australia. It has an influence of 750m x 130m in the main outcrop with individual pegmatite dykes up to 18m wide. Drilling over an anomalous area of 350m to the south of Manna 1 confirmed the discovery of a new zone of spodumene-rich pegmatites.
In December 2022, Global Lithium upgraded the Manna Lithium Project’s JORC 2012 Mineral Resource to 32.7 million tonnes @ 1.0% Li2O. The update was a 230% increase on the project’s maiden Inferred JORC Mineral Resource estimate of 9.9Mt @ 1.14% Li2O delivered by Global Lithium in February 2022.
During the 2022 drilling program, more than 33,685m of reverse circulation (RC) drilling and 6,138m of diamond core was drilled across the deposit. The main focus of the program was to expand the maiden Mineral Resource. This was achieved by testing the deposit along strike in both directions and extending the known lithium-bearing pegmatites down dip. This drilling program proved to be extremely successful as demonstrated in the significant Mineral Resource upgrade.
The maiden Mineral Resource was defined by 3,636m of drilling at relatively shallow depths comprising 21 RC drillholes for 3,354m and four diamond drillholes for 282.15m.
The Manna Lithium deposit remains open in all directions. A resource expansion program will continue throughout 2023, with an additional 35,000m utilising both RC and diamond drilling planned.
