Critical Resources Limited, advises that it has appointed Cyr Drilling International ("Cyr") as the drilling contractor for the planned upcoming drill program at its Mavis Lake Project in Ontario, Canada. The Company has appointed Canadian exploration drilling specialist Cyr Drilling International to complete the initial 5,000m drill program at its Mavis Lake Lithium Project in Ontario, Canada. The Mavis Lake Lithium Project is 19 kilometres east of the town of Dryden, Ontario.

The Project is in close vicinity to the Trans-Canada highway and railway major transportation arteries linking larger cities such as Thunder Bay, Ontario, to the southeast and Winnipeg, Manitoba, to the west. The region boasts excellent infrastructure with hydro-power located a few kilometres to the south- west of the project. The region is a well-established lithium province with multiple projects located within the vicinity.

Previous drill programs have yielded high-grade Li2O intercepts including: 55.25m at 1.04% Li2O from 80.75m in drill hole MF18-53 and 26.30m at 1.70% Li2O from 111.9m inc. 7.70m at 2.97% Li2O from 130.5m in drill hole MF17 491. The planned drilling program at Mavis Lake is set to comprise 49 holes for a total of 5,000m. Drilling on the property has occurred intermittently since 1956.

Work will be focused on the southern pegmatite outcrop (Pegmatite 6) with the remainder taking place on the northern outcrops (Pegmatite 17 and 18). By drilling validation holes, infill holes and extensional holes, the Company will be moving closer to delineating a JORC compliant Mineral Resource. Previous exploration campaigns at Mavis Lake have confirmed the presence of lithium bearing pegmatites.

The pegmatite occurrences at Mavis Lake are found within the correct zonation for lithium enrichment from the Ghost Lake Batholith, a fertile granite intrusion. The recently conducted airborne survey demonstrated the potential continuity of geological trends between Pegmatite 6 and Pegmatite 18. This potential continuity represents new areas of interest for the company that will be investigated via surface mapping and sampling with the aim of identifying new drill targets.
