San Domingo Soil Sampling Results Identify Potential Lithium Bearing Trend

BRITISH VIRGIN ISLANDS - Bradda Head Lithium Ltd. reported on the program to unlock value from its lithium bearing pegmatite opportunity in Arizona. Results from an initial 3km2 soil sampling program, identifying a potential >3km lithium-bearing trend and highly-prospective follow-up drill targets at its 23km2 San Domingo pegmatite district in Arizona. The results from a soil sampling program covering c.11% of Bradda's San Domingo pegmatite claims in Arizona have identified highly-prospective follow-up lithium targets over a 3km+ strike with the same elemental signatures that have been seen at known lithium mineralization locations globally. The soil geochemistry suggests that the pegmatite swarm is largely of the LCT (lithium-cesium-tantalum) mineralization type, the most significant for lithium deposits and what is commonly associated with economic occurrences of lithium and tantalum.

Bradda Head carried out a soil sampling program covering just under 3km2 of the northern claim block at San Domingo in order to support future drill hole targeting and better understanding of our 23km2 of pegmatite ground in Arizona. The Company is now planning the next phase of this soil sampling program to cover the remaining 20km2 of Bradda's San Domingo pegmatite project in Arizona. Key potential lithium pegmatite identifier elements were analyzed for, including; lithium, niobium, cesium, and rubidium. The Midnight Owl Mine, which has been historically mined at surface and has known lithium mineralization, is where the Company is currently drilling and returning strong anomalies associated with these elements.

Importantly, ratios present in the soils of elements associated with pegmatites and lithium mineralization highlight targets for potential follow-up. The maps below show the areas of interest and, crucially, demonstrate a 9km NE-SW trend, which may continue through the remainder of Bradda's 20km2 of claims and state MEPs in Arizona, which have not had detailed soil sampling. This should have a very positive impact on the scale potential at San Domingo. Combining this analysis with the 3D mapping will help with geological modeling, drill targeting and follow-up exploration work.

Permitting is also underway at the Company's state Mineral Exploration Permits (MEPs), and expansion programs are being formulated on the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) claims where Bradda is currently carrying out diamond core drilling.

Charles FitzRoy, CEO, said, "The soil results indicate excellent targets beyond the current drilling plan, and are a further piece in the puzzle to help us understand the size potential we have at San Domingo and in unlocking the value at this lithium-bearing pegmatite opportunity in Arizona. The US is investing $135bn in developing its domestic EV and critical mineral supply chain, and our San Domingo pegmatite project is ideally situated to help with that supply and to potentially benefit from Department of Energy funding.

This soil sampling program is another critical tool used in drill hole targeting and in confirming the prospectivity of our project at San Domingo. Alongside our pegmatite project, we are driving growth at our Basin lithium-in-clay project, with an updated resource due before year-end. Bradda's mix of pegmatite, clay and brine assets is a big de-risker for any investor. The recent TSX-V listing will also help to further broaden our shareholder base.

"This first drill program at previously un-drilled areas is progressing well. Assay return times are still slow in the US due to an exploration boom over the last 2 years, but what we have seen so far has been promising, giving us confidence to implement exploration, permitting, and diamond drilling follow-up targets. With drilling firmly underway we look forward to updating the market before the end of the year."
