High-grade North American Lithium Drill Results Show Potential for Mineral Resource Upgrade

02.11.2023 | 21:30 Uhr | Business Wire
  • Multiple, new, high-grade lithium zones identified, including outside the planned pit shell model
  • Some intercepts at thicker and higher grades than previously encountered
  • Results of in-pit drilling indicate potential for further mineral resource conversion

Piedmont Lithium ("Piedmont" or the "Company") (Nasdaq: PLL; ASX: PLL), a leading global supplier of lithium resources critical to the U.S. electric vehicle supply chain, today announced that initial 2023 drill campaign results from the jointly owned North American Lithium ("NAL") project have identified multiple, thick, high-grade spodumene-bearing pegmatites.

Drill results identified new, high-grade mineralized zones along the northwest margin of the NAL deposit, beyond the current NAL pit operations and the planned pit shell model. Additionally, mineralization from inside the pit shell model shows continuity and consistency in grade and thickness, providing the potential for mineral resource conversion within the pit shell model as well as definition below the existing pit.

"We are pleased with these excellent drill results, which indicate the potential for further resource and mine life extension at NAL. The thick widths and high grades of these intercepts are encouraging and underscore the importance of NAL, which is already North America's largest operating lithium mine," said Piedmont Lithium President and CEO Keith Phillips. "We look forward to the remaining assay results as NAL continues to ramp production and prepare Q4'23 customer shipments."

NAL is a wholly owned project of Sayona Quebec, a joint venture between Piedmont (25%) and Sayona Mining (75%). Piedmont holds an offtake agreement to purchase the greater of 113,000 metric tons per year or 50% of the spodumene concentrate production from North American Lithium at a ceiling price of $900 per metric ton (SC-6.0%) on a life-of-mine basis.

Cautionary Note to U.S. Investors
Piedmont's public disclosures are governed by the U.S. Exchange Act of 1934, including Regulation S-K 1300 thereunder, whereas Sayona discloses estimates of "measured," "indicated," and "inferred" mineral resources as such terms are used in the JORC Code and Canada's National Instrument 43-101. Although S-K 1300, the JORC Code, and NI 43-101 have similar goals in terms of conveying an appropriate level of confidence in the disclosures being reported, they at times embody different approaches or definitions. Consequently, investors are cautioned that public disclosures by Sayona prepared in accordance with the JORC Code or NI 43-101 may not be comparable to similar information made public by companies, including Piedmont, subject to S-K 1300 and the other reporting and disclosure requirements under the U.S. federal securities laws and the rules and regulations thereunder.

The statements in the link below were prepared by, and made by, Sayona Mining. The following disclosures are not statements of Piedmont and have not been independently verified by Piedmont. Sayona Mining is not subject to U.S. reporting requirements or obligations, and investors are cautioned not to put undue reliance on these statements.
