AVZ Minerals Limited reported it has received further strong results from its Mineral Resource drilling (Figure 3 and 4) at the Manono Lithium and Tin Project (Manono Project) in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC). It has received assay results from the third consignment of 4 diamond drill holes at the Roche Dure North-East Extension drilling programme. AVZ holds a 75% interest in the Manono Project, located 500km north of Lubumbashi in the south of the Democratic Republic of Congo, hosting the world class Roche Dure Mineral Resource, one of the undeveloped hard rock lithium deposits in the world.

The Manono Project is strategically positioned as a clean, sustainable source of lithium, significantly contributing to the green energy transition, feeding the global lithium-ion battery value chain. With industry leading ESG credentials, it is forecast to be one of the lowest carbon emitting hard rock mines in the world.
