Executive Commentary on Root Lithium Project Expansion

We are pleased with the ongoing success of our exploration efforts at Root Bay, which have led to an expansion of the exploration target to 25-35 million tonnes, highlighting the project's promising potential for further resource expansion. Final assay results from exploration drilling at Root Bay East have validated significant potential for the repetition of the Root Bay deposit along strike, particularly with the discovery of potentially seven pegmatites along an 800 metre trend, similar to the Root Bay system. We are now looking forward to returning to the field to conduct further testing at Root Bay East. - GT1 Chief Executive Officer, Luke Cox
