Trek Metals Limited advise that it has confirmed the presence of high-grade lithium within an extensive, undrilled pegmatite system at its 100%-owned Tambourah Lithium Project (E45/5839 & E45/5484) in the Pilbara region of Western Australia. Geochemical data is the most important tool for providing vectors towards LCT pegmatites, with element ratios indicating the most fractionated zones that have the highest likelihood of being enriched in incompatible elements of economic interest (such as lithium and tantalum). These fertility ratios have been calculated from new and historical rock chip data collected by FMG.

Of particular interest is the K/Rb ratio, noting that other ratios such as Nb/Ta and Zr/Hf also show similar patterns which indicate that highly fractionated pegmatites occur not only in the Eastern Prospect area, where spodumene-bearing lithium mineralisation has been observed in outcropping pegmatites, but also in the much larger and more widespread pegmatites in the Central Prospect area ­ which have similar ratios, highlighting their prospectivity. Pathfinder elements (e.g., Ta, Cs, Sn & Rb) are also enriched in rock chips from this area. Stream sediment data also suggests the presence of elevated lithium in the Central Prospect area with comparable values to those taken from streams in the Eastern Prospect area.

While Trek has not yet located any lithium mineralisation in the Central Prospect area, the fertility indicators, the elevated lithium values in the stream sediment data and the large volume of pegmatites in outcrop all add weight to this being a highly prospective area for lithium mineralisation and thus being ranked highly as a drill target area. Trek is rapidly progressing towards drill target definition and gaining the required agreements and approvals to allow drill testing of this exciting large hard rock lithium mineralised system in the Pilbara region of Western Australia. The Tambourah Lithium Project is located 70km south-east of Pilbara Minerals world- class Pilgangoora lithium mine site in the Pilbara region of Western Australia.

Trek's extensive landholding at Tambourah comprises two Exploration Licences (E45/5484 & E45/5839) which are 100%-owned by ACME Pilbara Pty Ltd, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Trek Metals Ltd. The Project encompasses the central portion of the 15km long Western Shaw Greenstone Belt, which occurs on the eastern limb of an anticline folded around the Tambourah Dome. The greenstone rocks comprise Archean-aged metavolcanic, metasedimentary, and various granitoids with associated pegmatitic phases. Samples taken during Trek's first reconnaissance trip to evaluate the lithium potential at Tambourah corroborated the lithium potential highlighted in the historical exploration results and confirmed the presence of multiple outcropping pegmatites in the areas of stream sediment anomalism, with new rock chip samples returning grades of up to 1.04% Li2O.

Importantly spodumene was confirmed in multiple pegmatite dykes at Tambourah via Raman analysis at The University of Western Australia's Centre for Microscopy, Characterisation and Analysis. Trek is currently focused on defining drill targets within the areas with anomalous lithium and other pathfinder elements such as caesium, rubidium and tantalum. Trek previously reported exceptional high-grade results of up to 178g/t Au from rock chip samples taken preliminary reconnaissance fieldwork on E45/5484 in 2021.

The prospectivity of the area is supported by other high-grade results from nearby samples including 13.0g/t Au and 5.79g/t Au. There are at least 13 known gold occurrences and old mining workings located on the project.
