Ann: Outstanding High Grade Zinc, Copper and Silver Assays, page-90

Well thank you for your kind and respectful words. Happy to be a part of the ' Critical Resources ' journey. And whether it's here or at SYA , or any others , its a journey which obviously shares a lot of common themes running through their prospects and potential.

And YES - no doubt the NSW base metals project is potentially HUGE and a significant driver of value and SP appreciation.

But if I could just stick with the unfolding Lithium story here for a moment ( at least until we get the next drill core results from it's NSW Gibson's project. ) . And you're not wrong about the ' Hidden ' or often overlooked prospectivity of this area. Apart from the areas surrounding Orange , Dubbo , Peak Hill , Tomigley , Narromne and Parkes through the likes of Alkane Resources - But people often forget that easterly stretch starting from around Coolah to Premier NSW ....and then from Spring Ridge to Caroona and then on through Tamworth and beyond.

Now I'm obviously no Geologist ( just an Investor ) , but I've driven that path at least a few times and have always been amazed at the abundance of outcropping of copper oxidized rocks visible at surface on remote pastoral and often ' Hilly ' blocks which lend themselves more to mining activities than say Agricultural or crop growing purposes. And they absolutely Love their mining in NSW .....just as much as in W.A and Queensland.

So coming back to Lithium again - One of those themes mentioned in my above opening comment is something I have been going on about for some time now - and that is that HUB is the new Lithium BUZZ word in Canada .....Quebec and Ontario.....and everywhere now where there is ' Multiple ' prospectivity and potential deposits.

So whether its about the obvious abundance and location of the primary target deposits , the location to well established infrastructure vis-avis roads , rail and ports , access to cheap and renewable green energy and well skilled workforce's ....or access to HUGE US and Canadian EV markets - Ontario and Quebec seem to have it ALL going on at the present moment.

But for me , CRR reinforces a clear example of how the Market overall seems to be ' setting itself ' for the next phase of resource development and discovery ...., and definitely the next round of project and HUB posturing and consolidation.

Especially in Ontario.

So we all know the importance of the proximity to the Thunder Bay ' Conversion ' HUB which has been exemplified by the preliminary proposal talks between Rock Tech Lithium's Georgia Lake project and Avalon Advanced Materials Inc's separation rapids lithium project.

However , as shown in the attached map , we could theoretically include International Lithium's Raleigh Lake deposit as well as Infinite Ore Corp's Jackpot / Georgia Lake project and its ' optioned ' Forgan Lake / Georgia Lake project .....as well as the soon to be listed Great Northern Lithium's Wisa , Root , and Seymour Lake lithium projects which were bought off Ardiden.

Heck one could even argue that Vision Lithium's new Godslith lithium project located 1 kilometre's north or Gods River Manitoba is only 790 kilometers away from Thunder Bay Ontario.

And this is where the rather ' incestuous ' nature of my theory of the Market ' setting itself ' for the next phase of HUB development starts to play out.

So we all know of the recent addition to CRR's BOD with 1MC's ( Altura's ) CEO Alex Cheesman . But we also know that WR1's CEO is also former Altura COO Chris Evans and who's Winsome project Sirmac-Clapier is only 30 odd kilometers away from Vision Lithium's Sirmac project and also a similar distance away from Sayona's recently acquired Moblan project. We also know that Vision's Chairman Victor Cantore was the original holder of the majority of the tenement which formed the Whabouchi Lithium deposit and were vended to Nemaska over 10 years ago.

But the connections gets even better from here ( especially from the Ontario Hard Rock Lithium perspective ) , because one of the resident Hard Rock experts in Quebecer Jonathan Gagne is not only a Director at Infinite Ore Corp with its Jackpot project , but also a Director at Vision Lithium as well as being the former General Manager at Sayona Quebec. .......

So despite the fact that it should be widely accepted that good and experienced mining executives move around the industry , the common ties to Lithium Hard Rock is even more obvious.

Even when you start to factor in the connections to Lithium Royalty Corp who has recently been involved in lithium royalty deals with Sayona as well as Winsome and others is actually a subsidiary company of Lithium Corporation who vended the Fish Lake earn in with 1MC and who also has James Brown as a Director. Of course James Brown is also the Managing Director of Morella and who also sits on the BOD of Sayona.

So given ALL these interconnections of budding Lithium producers and prospective HUBs , I can't help thinking there will be a whole lot more posturing and deal making going forwards with those with the largest Market Caps being in the best possible position of strength to capitalize on their potential opportunities.......
