• Drill holes extend mineralisation 500m north of the first positive drill results at Lacroma (ASX Release “Impressive Graphite Intervals in First Lacroma Drilling” on 29 May 2023).
• Mineralisation appears to be offset to the east from the main airborne electromagnetic (EM) anomaly in the northern traverses, resulting in thinner mineralised intervals being intersected in the current traverses.
• iTech plans to extend the traverses to the east where the mineralisation is predicted to increase in thickness and grade.
• Mineralisation also appears to increase in grade and thickness to the south which will be the focus of drilling for the remainder of the year.
• Approximately 61 resource drill holes have been completed to date.
• Drilling is continuing at 100m spaced east-west sections to the south once infill and extension drilling is completed.
The latest results from the Lacroma Graphite Prospect have demonstrated that strong graphite mineralisation continues 500m north of the first traverse drilled at Lacroma Central. The drilling program continues to deliver significant results with over 60 holes of the resource drilling program completed to date.
