Mineralization Comments

Feb 07, 2023 (Therese Pettigrew) - Intermittent sampling over a 1500 m strike length west of the NZ has identified highly anomalous tantalum grading from trace up to 477 ppm Ta2O5 with very low lithium values. It is unclear at this point whether there is any relationship between the pegmatitic dyke with enriched tantalum and the lithium bearing NZ (Alset Energy Corp. press release May 30, 2016).
