Ann: First drillhole assays confirm major Trieste discovery, page-27

looks like we have a genuine discovery here at Trieste. Speculation can now begin on how big it could be.


I see the announcement had a decent explanation of the hole 14 87.5m @ 1.3% Li2O - see below, in particular it appears the grades get higher in this orientation so the "true width" holes are in fact under reporting the actual grade of the pegmatite. not sure how this works but great start and LLI now has life in it!

Drillhole DIS23-014 has demonstrated the potential importance of drilling direction with respect to lithium grade as large spodumene crystals may have a preferred orientation, normal to dyke contacts. The prominence of spodumene mega crystals at the Trieste Lithium Project therefore could lead to under reporting of lithium assay grades due to the drilling direction. The interpreted sub-parallel orientation (to Dyke#01 contacts) of DIS23-014 is believed to have provided a more accurate representation of lithium grade in that location. To support future geological and metallurgical assessments, further sub-parallel drillholes will be planned
