MetalsGrove Mining Limited (MetalsGrove MGA or the Company) announced that a pre-drilling detailed surface mapping program has been completed at the Company's Upper Coondina Lithium Project located 85 km south-west of Marble Bar in the East Pilbara district of WA. Initial results highlight multiple outcropping pegmatite dykes occurring in swarms. Pegmatite dykes strike approximately northeast-southwest within a regional corridor extending 8km Initial observations suggest the pegmatites at Upper Coondina may be part of the same system that hosts the major lithium discovery announced by Global Lithium at its Archer Project to the north-east ground, which further underpins the strong lithium prospectivity at Upper Coondina. Surface field mapping and rock chip sampling confirms multiple outcropping pegmatite dykes varies from 3m to 30m wide occurring in swarms Recently completed program was designed to identify potential extensions of existing mineralisation for upcoming drilling program 45 dominating pegmatite formations have been identified û pegmatite dykes strike approximately northeast-southwest within a regional corridor extending 8km POW approvals now received for the Upper Coondina lithium project - Heritage survey will be commencing first week of October 2022 Airborne Magnetic and Radiometric survey is complete Maiden drill program is scheduled to commence in fourth quarter Upper Coondina is highly prospective for lithium-tin-tantalum and is located in the Pilbara Tier-1 lithium mineral field.
