Global Battery Metals Increases Drilling Program for North-West Leinster Lithium Project in Ireland

16.02.2021  |  Newsfile

Vancouver, February 16, 2021 - Global Battery Metals Ltd. (TSXV: GBML) (OTCQB: REZZF) (FSE: REZ) (the "Company" or "GBML") is pleased to announce that its Board of Directors has approved an increased drill program at the North-West Leinster Lithium Project ("NW Leinster Project") in Ireland. The drill program will now consist of six holes.

"This increased drill program at our North-West Leinster Lithium Project in Ireland will allow us to further test the first target," stated Michael Murphy, President & CEO. "The target areas are along the same lithium pegmatite trend as the Avalonia Project, where Ganfeng Lithium Co. Ltd. and International Lithium Corp. have previously drilled high-grade lithium pegmatite at Aclare and Moylisha.*"

About North-West Leinster Lithium Project

The NW Leinster Project is focused on the exploration for lithium mineralization (spodumene pegmatites) in the north of the Leinster Massif in south-east Ireland. The project area is covered by fifteen (15) prospecting licences termed the North-West Leinster Block which covers a total area of 477.4 km2. The prospecting licences were granted to LRH Resources Limited in October 2018 and are valid for an initial period of six-years from that date. GBML has an option agreement to earn 90%.

The Aghavannagh target is located on prospecting licence 4541 towards the north-eastern end of the East Carlow Deformation Zone (ECDZ) which passes along the SE margin of the Leinster Granite Massif and with which regional pegmatite development is interpreted to be spatially and genetically related.

The licence block also extends to the north of this licence into areas with similar geological settings and anomalous lithium geochemistry.

The NW Leinster property exhibits a comparable structural and stratigraphic setting to the International Lithium Corp. - Ganfeng Lithium Co. Ltd JV's Avalonia Project which lies between 20km (Moylisha) and 30 km (Aclare) along strike to the south west forming a semi-continuous zone of discrete lithium-bearing pegmatites and aplites. The strike length of the Aclare target zone is reported as 550m with best intersections of 2.23% Li20 over 23.3m including 3.43% Li20 over 6m drill width.*

GBML can earn up to 90% in the NW Leinster Project, with the following option earn-in:

  • To earn 17.5% - spend EUR88,000 by Oct 2022 and up to EUR7,500 for licence fees etc. There are no payments to the vendor at this stage.
  • To earn 55%, within 2 years of the above or 4 years from Oct 2020, spend EUR500,000 on the property and pay EUR50,000 to vendor (90% can be paid in stock at GBML's discretion).
  • To earn 90% - spend EUR1,000,000 and pay EUR200,000 (90% can be stock, at GBML's discretion) with in two years of above, or 6.5 years from now.
  • Project subject to a 2% royalty, 1% can be bought back for EUR1,000,000.
