Lithium Soil Anomaly Grows at Lake
Johnston
Highlights
■
Additional soil sampling grows Lake Johnston lithium target to 4km in
strike and 1.5km in width
■
Preparations well underway for drilling as part of current field program
TG Metals Limited (TG Metals or the Company) (ASX:TG6) is pleased to provide this update
on exploration activities at the Lake Johnston Ni-Li-Au Project, located south of the Maggie
Hays-Emily Anne nickel sulphide mining centre owned by Poseidon Nickel Limited (Figure 1).
Soil Sampling - Lithium
TG Metals has conducted infill and extensional soil sampling (200m x 50m spacing) over its
Burmeister lithium prospect. The results have not only confirmed the previous results but have
also grown the size of the anomaly and allowed better definition of potential pegmatite host
structures within the tested area. (see Figure 1 and Figure 2).
There are 4 main lithium anomalies, 3 of which have soil values greater than 46ppm Li
(+100ppm Li2O) and all sit on and to the immediate west of the Western Ultramafic Unit
(WUU). The central of these anomalies is over 600m wide and 1300m long. To the west of
these 3 strongly anomalous areas is a +60ppm Li2O anomaly which is greater than 3400m in
length.
The infill soil results confirm and enhance the structural trends observed in the previous soil
sampling (ASX release 4 October 2022). Ground investigations over the central anomaly
show evidence of pegmatite float, providing further encouragement that the structural trends
are the result of pegmatite intrusions hidden beneath the thin soil cover. An initial drilling
program shown in Figure 2, has been designed over the WUU and western trend anomalies.
Aboriginal Heritage surveys have already been conducted and a program of works (POW)
application for this drilling awaits the outcome of a targeted flora survey due to commence this
month.
Two (2) extensional lines of soil sampling to the east of the WUU have discovered lithium
anomalies in the north and south that require further infill sampling and follow-up investigation
(see Figure 2). These anomalies were unexpected and may provide future drill targets once
investigations of their size and extent are completed.

TG Metals CEO, Mr. David Selfe stated; “In conjunction with preparing our first drilling
programs on our combined nickel sulphide and nickel oxide targets, our lithium targets are
shaping up nicely as well and add a third string to our Lake Johnston project bow. The lithium
soil anomalies are large and extending into unexpected areas, indicative of a potentially large
hardrock lithium system. With the drilling on these lithium targets expected to follow-on directly
after, or perhaps during, the nickel drilling programs, the Company looks forward to generating
drilling results for multiple commodities in the second half of 2023.”
Coincident Rubidium and Li-Index
Further evidence for the existence of LCT pegmatites as a source of the lithium anomalies
beneath soil cover is the coincident high rubidium (Rb) results and the corresponding Li-Index
results on the central lithium anomaly with lithium grade contours (see Figure 3). This
correlation is consistent with that found at the WUU anomalies.
At the newly discovered eastern anomalies the correlation is less consistent. Further sampling
is required here to determine why this is so and this work will be completed over the coming
weeks.
Drilling will be first conducted on the WUU anomalies whilst infill soil sampling is conducted
on the newly discovered eastern anomalies.
Table A lists the lithium results at or above 50ppm Li. Figure 4 shows the direct comparison
to anomalous Li-Index results (hatched shapes) and lab (ICP) lithium results (solid colour
shapes), confirming Li-Index as a valuable tool for soil sampling investigations. Drilling on
these anomalies will determine the accuracy of both analysis methods in defining LCT
pegmatites in the Lake Johnston project area and will be further applied to the new eastern
anomalies as exploration progresses.
Next Steps
Aboriginal heritage surveys have been completed for the proposed lithium drilling as shown
in Figure 2. A targeted flora and fauna survey is scheduled to be completed in July and
subsequent to this a POW submitted for the proposed drilling program. Full approvals are
expected to be finalized in August which will be in time to the lithium drilling to directly followon from the current nickel drilling programs. nickel laterite drilling is expected to commence
mid July and nickel sulphide drilling will commence late July 2023.
Further soil sampling to infill and test extensions to the eastern anomalies will be conducted
over the coming weeks and drill testing will be designed as a follow-up those results if
indicated.

relevant to the style of mineralisation and type of deposit under consideration and to the activities that
he is undertaking to qualify as a Competent Person as defined in the 2012 Edition of the Australasian
Code for Reporting of Exploration Results, Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves. Mr Selfe has
consented to the inclusion in this presentation of matters based on their information in the form and
context in which it appears.
Forward Looking Statements
This announcement may contain certain statements that may constitute “forward looking statements”.
Such statements are only predictions and are subject to inherent risks and uncertainties, which could
cause actual values, results, performance achievements to differ materially from those expressed,
implied or projected in any forward looking statements.
Forward-looking statements are statements that are not historical facts. Words such as “expect(s)”,
“feel(s)”, “believe(s)”, “will”, “may”, “anticipate(s)” and similar expressions are intended to identify forwardlooking statements. These statements include, but are not limited to statements regarding future
production, resources or reserves and exploration results. All such statements are subject to certain risks
and uncertainties, many of which are difficult to predict and generally beyond the control of the Company,
that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in, or implied or projected by,
the forward-looking information and statements. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited
to: (i) those relating to the interpretation of drill results, the geology, grade and continuity of mineral
deposits and conclusions of economic evaluations, (ii) risks relating to possible variations in reserves,
grade, planned mining dilution and ore loss, or recovery rates and changes in project parameters as
plans continue to be refined, (iii) the potential for delays in exploration or development activities or the
completion of feasibility studies, (iv) risks related to commodity price and foreign exchange rate
fluctuations, (v) risks related to failure to obtain adequate financing on a timely basis and on acceptable
terms or delays in obtaining governmental approvals or in the completion of development or construction
activities, and (vi) other risks and uncertainties related to the Company’s prospects, properties and
business strategy. Our audience is cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking
statements that speak only as of the date hereof, and we do not undertake any obligation to revise and
disseminate forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date hereof, or to
reflect the occurrence of or non-occurrence of any events.
The Company believes that it has a reasonable basis for making the forward-looking Statements in the
presentation based on the information contained in this and previous ASX announcements.
The Company is not aware of any new information or data that materially affects the information included
in this ASX release, and the Company confirms that, to the best of its knowledge, all material assumptions
and technical parameters underpinning the exploration results in this release continue to apply and have
not materially changed.

• Documentation of primary data, data entry procedures, data
verification, data storage (physical and electronic) protocols.
Data is recorded using a master Microsoft Office Excel spreadsheet and all
location and assay data are compiled in a Microsoft Office Suite. All data is
backed up to Cloud storage.
All data below detection limit have been entered as zero.
• Discuss any adjustment to assay data.
Assay data is received as % or ppm dependent on the natural elemental
abundance. Only Li ppm is converted to Li2O for discussion purposes of
similar industry trends and exploration results.
All soil sample points were located using handheld GPS with a typical +-3m
accuracy.
• Accuracy and quality of surveys used to locate drill holes (collar
and down-hole surveys), trenches, mine workings and other
locations used in Mineral Resource estimation.
• Specification of the grid system used.
The field datum used is MGA_GDA94, Zone 51. All maps in this report are
referenced to GDA94 when merged with Geophysics data.
• Quality and adequacy of topographic control.
Topographic control was captured via an airborne imagery and LIDAR survey
conducted by TG Metals in 2023. X, Y collar data is projected to the LIDAR
DTM, and the subsequent Z value is assigned to the soil sample location.
• Data spacing for reporting of Exploration Results.
The original grid designed for the soil samples was 400m x 100m. This is
considered appropriate for a first pass soil sampling campaign. An infill
program was done around areas of the anomalous Li Index assay results on
200 x 50m grid, which is considered the minimum spacing to design a drill
campaign on.
Whether the data spacing and distribution is sufficient to
establish the degree of geological and grade continuity
appropriate for the Mineral Resource and Ore Reserve
estimation procedure(s) and classifications applied.

• Whether sample compositing has been applied.
No compositing was done.
• Whether the orientation of sampling achieves unbiased
sampling of possible structures and the extent to which this is
known, considering the deposit type.
The pattern is rotated to ensure the long axis (200m) is along strike, while
the short axis (50m) is across strike of the targeted horizon/mineralization.
The grid is aligned 090-270 degrees (Mag N), while the presumed Li
anomalism strikes NW and NE. The E-W grid creates an effective triangular
offset pattern, which is considered to be better than a square array.
• If the relationship between the drilling orientation and the
orientation of key mineralised structures is considered to have
introduced a sampling bias, this should be assessed and
reported if material.

No drilling results are included in this release.
All samples were collected by APS personnel, bagged in the field by APS
personnel and delivered to a warehouse in Wangara by APS personnel. APS
personnel mechanically sieved the samples further to 80 mesh at the
warehouse and captured these samples in paper sachets which were then
sealed. These samples were then boxed into lots of 50 samples, sealed and
delivered to TG Metals personnel. TG Metals personnel then hand delivered
the boxed samples to the ALL labs in West Perth. To date, no sample
shipments have had reported problems and/or a breach in security.
The Multi Acid Digest Laboratory Assays are considered reliable for Li, while
the Li Index of pXRF is not considered to be definitive. However, the pXRF
are used to determine the reliability and size of identified soil sample Li
anomalies for follow up works. Direct comparison of TG Metal’s data shows
not every Li Index number correlates exactly with assayed Li. This is why infill
sampling of the pattern to acquire more data was taken by TG Metals. The
amount, spread and continuity of Li Index values as a whole is conformable
to the Assayed Li values, as the actual peak values did differ, but the trends
of higher grade vs lower grade is repeated in both assaying techniques.

as joint ventures, partnerships, overriding royalties, native title
interests, historical sites, wilderness or national park and
environmental settings.
The reported soil sampling program is located on exploration licences
E63/1973 and E63/1997. Both are 100% owned by TG Metals Limited. This
area is under ILUA legislation, and the claimants are the Ndadju people
whom TG Metals has a Heritage Protection Agreement with. A heritage
survey was successfully conducted over this area in June 2023, with the line
clearances shown in the images.
The area is also within PNR 84, a proposed nature reserve since 1982.

The deposit type sought is LCT pegmatites. Archean basement rocks of mafic
and ultramafic origin are interpreted to contact intrusive granite to the
west. No Quaternary aged cover overlays the Regolith and basement rocks.
No verified outcrop was observed during sampling, however granitic scree
was noted in the area by the responsible person.

Methods
• In reporting Exploration Results, weighting averaging
techniques, maximum and/or minimum grade truncations (e.g.
cutting of high grades) and cut-off grades are usually Material
and should be stated
None used.
• Where aggregate intercepts incorporate short lengths of high
grade results and longer lengths of low grade results, the
procedure used for such aggregation should be stated and
some typical examples of such aggregation should be shown in
detail.
