• Extensive soil sampling program to extend high-grade lithium anomalies
• Previous sampling highlighted potential for hard rock lithium source
• Historic drilling intersected pegmatite dykes but lithium not assayed

Kingsland Minerals Ltd (ASX:KNG) is pleased to announce the start of a major soil sampling program to extend the high-grade lithium anomalies at its Lake Johnston lithium project in Western Australia. The project is located in the Lake Johnston Greenstone Belt, a proven source of hard rock lithium and nickel mineralisation. The current program will cover most of the 890 km² project area, with a grid of 200m east-west and 1,000m north-south sampling. Previous soil sampling has delineated significant lithium anomalies, suggesting the potential for a hard rock lithium source. Historic drilling conducted in 2008 targeting nickel mineralisation intersected pegmatite dykes, but lithium and associated elements were not assayed at the time. The results of the current sampling program will be used to plan future drilling aimed at discovering hard rock lithium sources.

The results of the current soil sampling program will be used to plan future drilling programs aimed at discovering hard rock sources of the lithium anomalism at the Lake Johnston project.
