Global Lithium Resources Continues MBLP Drilling Hits
THE DRILL SERGEANT: Global Lithium Resources (ASX: GL1) set an early Friday morning alarm to report further lithium assay results from the Exploration Program underway at the company’s wholly-owned Marble Bar lithium project (MBLP) near Port Hedland in the Pilbara region of Western Australia.
Global Lithium’s recent drilling efforts have continued to deliver intervals of lithium mineralisation at the MBLP, including:
MBRC0258
11m at 1.42 per cent lithium (Li2O) and 62ppm tantalum (Ta2O5) from 25m;
MBRC0269
12m at 0.88 per cent Li2O and 44ppm Ta2O5 from 82m;
MBRC0270
9m at 1.09 per cent Li2O and 61ppm Ta2O5 from 44m;
MBRC0271
10m at 0.81 per cent Li2O and 80ppm Ta2O5 from 40m;
MBRC0300
7m at 1.00 per cent Li2O and 71ppm Ta2O5 from 24m; and
MBRC0310
7m at 1.82 per cent Li2O and 66ppm Ta2O5 from 20m.

Global Lithium said the wide intervals encountered by the drilling continue to demonstrate the robustness of the MBLP and enhance the opportunities for increasing the resource base in proximity to the current Archer deposit and along strike further to the south and east.
Ongoing drilling will target these lithium mineralised pegmatites to establish their prospectivity both along strike and down dip.
“Commencing in February 2022, our 60,000 metres exploration drilling program has continued to build momentum at the MBLP, with lithium intercepts continuing along the greater than six kilometres strike of the mineralisation already identified within the project area,” Global Lithium head of geology Stuart Peterson said in the company’s ASX announcement.
“The results highlight the prospectivity of the area, particularly as the drilling moves to the southern and eastern areas of GL1’s tenement package.
“The drilling program supports the targeting effort by the Global Lithium and CSA Global geology teams and provides a strong platform for future growth.
“Our immediate exploration focus, to add shareholder value across our two assets, remains clearly defined.
“Firstly, deliver the ongoing CY2022 program at MBLP, including the highly prospective targets that remain untested and secondly, safely execute a 20,000 metres drilling and exploration campaign at the Manna lithium project in the Goldfields region.
“To our knowledge, we are the only lithium company to be drilling at two independent lithium project sites in the globally recognised, tier 1 lithium mining jurisdiction of Western Australia.”
