BRITISH VIRGIN ISLANDS / ACCESSWIRE / June 27, 2024 / Bradda Head Lithium Ltd ("Bradda Head", "Bradda", or the "Company") (AIM:BHL)(TSXV:BHLI), the North America-focused lithium development group, is pleased to announce its audited financial results for the year ending 29 February 2024.

Financial and operational highlights

• Successful completion of the Basin drill programme in August 2023, which preceded an upgraded Mineral Resource Estimate ("MRE") for a total Inferred Lithium Carbonate Equivalent ("LCE") content of 1.0Mt.
• Receipt of US$2.5 million royalty payment following MRE update.
• Conclusion of the Phase 3 drill programme at San Domingo highlighting encouraging assay results, and expansion of project area with an additional 8km² of new lode claims staked.
• Recorded net loss of US$ 1,503,858 (28 February 2023: US$3,887,588)
• Cash and cash deposit balances at year end stand at US$ 1,664,662 (28 February 2023: US$ 7,746,519).

Ian Stalker, Chairman of Bradda Head, commented:

"It is with great pleasure that I share this report following the close of a challenging but exciting year for the Company. As the following report demonstrates, Bradda Head has maintained its clear focus to expand and develop our resources, and has successfully delivered what we set out to do. The drilling programme at Basin, completed in August 2023, significantly upgraded our resource to 1.0Mt, triggering a royalty payment of US$2.5 million from the LRC. We were also highly encouraged by the promising results from our San Domingo drilling programme completed in December 2023, the second large-scale drilling programme completed at this project in a year. Both of these achievements speak to our determined and ongoing efforts to progress our portfolio.

"In the coming year we intend to further replicate these successes. We are currently evaluating the final results from our Basin drilling programme completed in FY2023 and firmly believe these will deliver a further upgrade of our existing MRE, unlocking a further royalty payment of US$3 million from the LRC, facilitating further investment into our portfolio. Since year end, we were pleased to have successfully reached a settlement agreement over the fraudulent payment (notified 29 March 2022), recovering a portion of the funds, in line with our expectations.

"At Bradda Head, we remain confident in our long-term vision to provide US lithium for the US market. Despite a challenging year for the lithium market, there is growing optimism that this is changing, driven by the demand for electric vehicles combined with the precariousness of current supply chains. Our assets are optimally located to capitalise on these developments, as the US seeks to define a domestic source of lithium supply. We look forward to continuing to meaningfully progress our portfolio, and seize the opportunity presented to us by the strategic location of our assets."
