Financial and operational highlights

- Notable intervals from the final few sonic core holes continued to be encouraging and include:
o 81.60m @ 944ppm Li in hole BES23-10, including 19.79m @ 1,325ppm,
o 82.30m @ 906ppm Li in hole BES23-07, including 20.87m @ 1,324ppm,

- Following the release of an updated Mineral Resource Estimate ("MRE") post period end, which included a contained LCE tonnage of over 1Mt LCE, and as per the Royalty Agreement with the Lithium Royalty Corporation ("LRC"), Bradda Head formally requested payment of US$ 2.5 million from LRC, with funds being received during October 2023.
- During August 2023, the Company also mobilised a drill rig at its San Domingo pegmatite asset, with the Phase 3 drilling programme commencing later in the month.
- In addition, the Company staked just under 8km2 of new lode claims at its San Domingo pegmatite project, further strengthening its land holding in the area.
Ian Stalker, Chairman of Bradda Head, commented:
"The first half of the financial year has naturally been very busy, with significant drilling programmes being undertaken at our Basin and San Domingo Properties in Arizona, USA. This phase of drilling is now completed at our Basin project. Positive assay results received from the Basin work, enabled the release of an updated MRE during September 2023, which included a contained LCE tonnage of over 1Mt LCE. This new Resource number reported resulted in the next stage of a royalty payment of US$ 2.5 million. The Company is therefore well placed financially to continue its planned work programme well into 2024. We also commenced our Phase 3 drilling programme at our San Domingo pegmatite asset during August 2023. This is a follow on from our Phase 1 and Phase 2 drill programmes, our aim being to extend the known lithium mineralization in this dstrict. Assay results have been slow to arrive due to the summer rush at the laboratory, and the Company hopes to have news on San Domingo within the next few weeks as preliminary results have started to arrive.
The pace of development will continue through the final half of the year, and we look forward to updating our shareholders as we receive the exploration results."
