Ann: Strong Results from Hydrology Drilling, page-40

Correct, but the geology paper was based off the artisanal tin workings and exploration information which to date hasn't been reported formally via asx announcements as doesn't directly fit with ASX compliance.

Essentially the assumptions stated in 2016 is based on historical geographical evidence which to date isn't and cannot be reported on the asx. I do agree there is empirical information to date which has far exceeded the geographical nature of the pegmatite.

To the sub parallel lenses are notable referring to sections a through e which is malata/kahungwe pegamatite slightly north of the carrier d'lest peg. The current nature of knowledge of carrier d/lest. Noting drill program in that area predominately based at the southern end of carrier.



The faults in the quoted post are of the far northern sections of carrier d/lest which are untested by current results and give a better sense of what potentially lies to the E/W of the main ore body. stating potential faults.

Note section G in quoted post which refer to the roche dure pegmatite. The paragraph which is not highlighted explains the nature of roche dure.

The 2.5km comment is the state difference between roche and carrier d/lest which remains fairly accurate.

"The Manono deposit is located in the continuation of a depression in the Kibara orogen: the Upemba zone. The metamorphic schists, which the pegmatites intrudes, belong to formations of the Kibara system. The general orientation of the pegmatites is ~ N 50° E. The western part (Kitotolo) is surrounded by vertical to sub-vertical micaschists, orientated circa N 50° E. and the dip varies locally of 30° to the north or to the south.”

The Manono deposits can locally reach 700 m of width and stretch over a distance of 15 km in length. The main deposit can be divided into two parts: Kitotolo in the southwest and Manono-Kahungwe in the northeast. In between those 2 pegmatite bodies, there is a gap of about 2 to 3 km where an outcrop of oriented granite and a pegmatite containing spodumene is visible at the dam"

I wouldn't get too caught up on the other commentary, simply stating that AVZ themselves announced from geological supporting evidence that the pegmatite is likely continuous below the lake. It was actually well know that carrier was large but upon the initiation of the first drill program roche due was indicated more uniform, one solid thick peg and hence why it was targeting for the 400mT and not so much the apparent parallel lenses of carrier. (Noting the part drilled is probably the most uniform area.)

from AVZ DFS below.


Note they are still using cited old imperial evidence to support comments of nature of ore bodies. Fairly typically. I guess the crux of my point it. Scratch back all the sheet of the surface and it's highly probably it's a "continuous" minerilisation of spodumene of varying thickness and grade simply that roche/mpete/carrier/malata/kahungwe have actual results to support this and are at surface. The part near the lake hasn't been explored really, because of said lake and the fact that empirical evidence suggest if you're gonna start anywhere, start at carrier and roche. Which is what occured.

Hopefully that has provided some clarity/context to my original post.
