Latin Resources Limited Provides the Latest Assay Results and an Update on the Progress of the 2023 Drilling Campaign At the Company's 100% Owned Colina Lithium Deposit Latin Resources Limited to provide the latest assay results and an update on the progress of the 2023 drilling campaign at the Company's 100% owned Colina Lithium Deposit ("Colina") located in the state of Minas Gerais, Brazil (Appendix 1). Results from drilling completed in late 2022 have been returned from the laboratory and continue to show good correlation with the JORC 2012 Indicated and Inferred Mineral Resource Estimate ("MRE"). Results include holes from both within the existing Colina Deposit MRE model, and the Colina West area which is currently outside of the MRE block model. Recent intersections include: SADD061: 20.70m @ 1.51% Li2O from 159.00m; SADD062: 10.00m @ 1.13% Li2O from 149.51m, SADD063: 4.03m @ 1.60% Li2O from 125.12m and: 6.79m @ 1.52% Li2O from 267.37m, SADD070: 5.03m @ 1.64% Li2O from 192.97m and 5.52m @ 1.50% Li2O from 292.03m and, 16.43m @ 1.69% Li2O from 323.57m and, 18.89m @ 1.56% Li2O from 356.91m. The Company reported that the 2023 drilling campaign is gathering momentum with seven diamond drilling rigs currently onsite drilling, with the final rig due in the coming weeks. Drilling is on track with over 3,000m of the planned 65,000m drilling program already completed. Currently six of the seven drilling rigs are focused on the Colina West areas, where the logging of drill core continues to show the presence of thick spodumene rich pegmatites including intersections of SADD072: 27.67m from 333.82m and SADD077: 33.00m from 319.65m. These results coupled with the latest assay results from the 2022 drilling campaign have enabled the development of a preliminary leapfrog interpretation of the Colina West mineralisation envelope. This has revealed a shallow easterly dipping zone extending for over 500m along strike and 300m up dip. The development of this model greatly assists in the planning and targeting of additional drilling. In addition to the aggressive drilling campaign currently underway on site, Latin is actively progressing exploration activities across its wider tenement package at Salinas. This work includes: Infill geochemical soil sampling at the Salinas South Prospect to better define initial soil broad anomalism encountered in the initial stream sediment and soil sampling; Mapping and reconnaissance work to the Southwest of Colina/Colina West along an interpreted prospective lithium corridor and other tenement include Lajinha and Monte Alto; Detailed airborne geophysical magnetic surveys over the Colina/Colina West areas. The Company has also engaged with several suitable drilling contractors for the supply of up to two Reverse Circulation ("RC") drilling rigs to add to the existing fleet to bring the total to ten rigs operating in the area. The RC drilling rigs will be tasked with completing rapid stepout drill fences to define the prospective lithium corridor further to the west and southwest of the known Colina/Colina West mineralisation. RC drilling may also be used as a first pass exploration tool to test mapped pegmatites, or geochemical anomalies where there is no physical outcrop, as is the case with some parts of the Salinas South tenements.

Latin Resources Limited Provide an Update on the Expansion of the Salinas Lithium Project in Brazil Latin Resources Limited provide an update on the expansion of the Salinas Lithium Project ("Salinas") in Brazil, which hosts the Company's 100% owned Colina Lithium Deposit. The Company significantly expanded its mineral exploration title holdings in the highly prospective Bananal Valley District in Minas Gerais, Brazil, through lodging 17 new applications with the Brazilian National Mining Agency (ANM), over an area of more than 29,940 hectares of what the Company believes to be favourable basement lithologies. The Company now controls approximately 38,100 hectares (381km2), which represents a significant land position in the region. The new tenements are located to the north of the Company's existing land holdings where theCompany has defined a maiden Mineral Resource Estimate ("MRE"), for the Colina Deposit 1 of 13.3 Mt @ 1.2% Li2O, along with a JORC Exploration Target Range1 ("ETR") for Colina of 13.5 22 Mt with a grade range of 1.2 1.5% Li2O, in early December 2022. Utilising the available government and other proprietary data sets, including regional magnetic data, mineral mapping and solid in-house geological interpretations, the Company has undertaken a regional desktop prospectivity review of the wider Bananal Valley District surrounding the Colina Deposit. The resulting new tenement applications cover areas that have been interpreted by the Company to be favourable for the presence of lithium bearing pegmatites. The majority of these areas are considered by the Company to be `green-fields' exploration areas. The Company will commence preliminary reconnaissance work including the ground truthing and geological mapping and regional scale geochemical sampling. Other works including airborne geophysical and remote sensing survey may also be undertaken over specific areas highlighted as part of the initial reconnaissance work by the Company's field explorationteams.

Latin Resources Limited Announces Exceptional Assay Results from Colina West Potential Latin Resources Limited provided an update on drilling results from the Colina and Colina West areas from drilling completed in late 2022 at the Company's 100% owned Salinas Lithium Project (Salinas). 2022 Drilling Program - Assay results: The Company announced its maiden Mineral Resource Estimate ("MRE"), for the Colina Deposit of 13.3Mt @ 1.2% Li2O, along with a JORC Exploration Target Range ("ETR") for Colina of 13.5 22 Mt with a grade range of 1.2 1.5% Li2O, in early December 2022; neither of which include the potential additional resources that may be defined in the Colina West area (Figure 1). The MRE and ETR are based on assay results from a total of 47 diamond drill holes for some 10,528m of drilling, with an additional 25 holes completed at Colina and Colina West at the end of the 2022 drilling season, which were not included in the MRE and ETR calculations. Assay results for a total of thirteen of these drill holes (SADD048 SADD060), completed toward the end of the 2022 drilling campaign have been returned from the laboratory. A further ten (SADD061 SADD071) remain outstanding. Results from this latest batch of results include holes from within the main Colina Deposit MRE, as well as more holes drilled in the Colina West area. The holes collared within the footprint of the Colina MRE all show good correlation with the block model, and in some cases have returned higher grades than predicted by the MRE, notably holes SADD057 and SADD059. Significant intersections within the MRE footprint include: SADD053: 14.00m @ 1.35% Li2O from 289.58m; SADD057: 20.17m @ 1.66% Li2O from 136.99m; SADD059: 14.70m @ 1.27% Li2O from 109.90m; and SADD060: 15.96m @ 1.56% Li2O from 350.09m. Results from the holes drilled in the Colina West area have returned exceptional results that the Company believes significantly upgrades the prospectivity of the Colina West area. Drill hole SADD055, collared approximately 200m along strike to the south of the Colina West discovery hole SADD033, is a standout, having returned multiple highgrade intersections greater than 10 meters in thickness. In total, SADD055 intersected over 67 cumulative meters of highly mineralised pegmatites which are interpreted by the Company to continue up dip to the west. The ongoing 2023 drilling campaign will test the near surface and strike extensions of these pegmatites. These intersections remain open in all directions. Significant intersections include: SADD055: 13.73m @ 1.38% Li2O from 200.19m; and: 16.08m @ 1.07% Li2O from 306.69m; and: 10.85m @ 1.96% Li2O from 322.15m and: 11.16m @ 1.61% Li2O from 360.17m and: 16.00m @ 1.61% Li2O from 393.60m. Drill hole SADD060, collared 100m to the east of hole SADD033, is equally significant, as it confirms the continuity of the pegmatites in SADD033 at depth returning multiple significant intersections, including: SADD060: 2.29m @ 1.71% Li2O from 84.75m and: 1.88m @ 1.85% Li2O from 182.70m and: 1.96m @ 0.83% Li2O from 203.69m and: 2.84m @ 0.92% Li2O from 228.00m and: 2.89m @ 1.33% Li2O from 247.40m and: 1.55m @ 0.56% Li2O from 252.00m and: 15.95m @ 1.56% Li2O from 350.09m and: 1.41m @ 1.64% Li2O from 370.62m and: 2.00m @ 1.04% Li2O from 384.42m. All mineralisation at Colina and Colina West remains open along strike to the north and south as well as at depth. The current 65,000m diamond drilling campaign, which commenced in early January with the arrival of six diamond drilling rigs, is designed to test the area updip from the Colina West pegmatites intersected in holes SADD055 and SADD053, as well as along strike to the north and south. The proposed drill spacing of 100m by 100m is expected to provide sufficient data coverage for the estimation of an inferred MRE for Colina west, in line with the Company's plan to fast track rapid resource growth at the Colina and Colina West Deposits and underpin a rapid move towards potential future development.

Latin Resources Limited Commences the 2023 Drilling Program At Salinas Lithium Project Latin Resources Limited announced that field teams and drilling rigs have arrived on site for the scheduled commencement of the 2023 drilling program at the Company's 100% owned Salinas Lithium Project. A total of six, small environmental footprint, man portable/modular diamond drilling rigs capable of drilling to depth of circa 400-450m below surface have arrived on site and have commenced drilling. The Company has a 65,000m diamond drilling program planned for 2023, and is committed to minimising the environmental impact of this work by using these innovative and low-impact rigs. A further two, larger track mounted, drilling rigs capable of drilling to far greater depths, and producing larger diameter PQ drill core are scheduled to arrive on site in February, bringing the total drilling fleet to eights rigs for the season. 2023 Drilling Program The planned 65,000m program focuses on the rapid expansion of the Company's maiden Indicated and Inferred JORC Mineral Resource Estimate of 13.3Mt @ 1.2% Li2O 1 at the Colina Deposit; as well as providing sufficient drill coverage over the Colina West Prospect to enable the expansion of the existing MRE into this emerging high priority area. Previous drilling at Colina West, including SADD033, has shown the presence of multiple spodumene bearing pegmatites including some thick high-grade intersections, which currently fall outside the limits of the MRE. Additional drilling completed in late 2022 has intersected these same pegmatites in multiple drillholes, confirming the continuity both up and down dip from SADD033 (assay results pending). Infill and extension drilling at the Colina Deposit itself will focus on the down dip extensions of the high-grade mineralisation in the north, where the current MRE block model shows thick high-grade mineralisation open at depth. Ongoing other works at the Salinas Project Other work currently underway on site includes: The expansion of the Company's core processing and storage facility on site at Salinas, to facilitate the planned significant increase in drilling activity in 2023. This work is expected to be completed in early February 2023. Targeted large diameter PQ diamond core drilling to collect sufficient representative pegmatite samples for the planned large scale DMS and flotation pilot plant testwork scheduled to commence in the 2023 March quarter. Detailed drone magnetic and other geophysical surveys to assist with targeting of step-out regional exploration drilling along strike from the Colina/Colina West areas. This survey is scheduled for late January 2023. Breakeven Date Change • Dec 31

Latin Resources Limited Provides Update on Resource Definition Drilling and Other Studies Currently Ongoing At High-Grade Colina Lithium Prospect Latin Resources Limited provided the following update on resource definition drilling and other studies currently ongoing at the Company's 100% owned high-grade Colina Lithium Prospect. In October, the Company commissioned Toronto based independent resource consultants SGS Geological Services ("SGS"), to undertake the estimation of a JORC Mineral Resource Estimate ("MRE"), and a wider Exploration Target Range ("ETR") for the Company's Colina Lithium Deposit. SGS, working closely with the Company's geological team have confirmed the presence of a series of moderately east dipping pegmatite bodies, extending from near surface to a depth of over 350m. These pegmatites remain open along strike to the north and south, and at depth. Based on assay results from a total of 47 diamond drill holes for some 10,528 m of drilling, SGS has independently estimated the maiden Mineral Resource for the Colina Deposit in only 10 months since the commencement of drilling in early 2022. Of the 57 diamond drill holes completed at the cut-off date, 47 drill holes have assays results used for the MRE to produce a JORC Indicated and Inferred resource estimate of 13.3mt @1.2% Li2O (2.08Mt Indicated and 11.17Mt Inferred). SGS has also estimated a JORC ETR of 13.5 22 Mt with a grade range of 1.2 1.5% Li2O for the Colina Deposit based on data from all the available 57 diamond drill holes. The current interpretation indicates that the modelled pegmatites potentially increase in both thickness and grade with depth, additional drilling is required to confirm these observations. The potential quantity and grade of the lithium mineralisation at the wider Colina project is conceptual in nature, there has been insufficient exploration to estimate a Mineral Resources and it is uncertain if further exploration will confirm the target ranges. Potential Mineral Resource Growth Areas: Colina Deposit: 13-22 Mt based on the SGS ETR range. Colina South: extensions of the Colina Deposit to the south. Colina West Pegmatites: based on initial interpretations of pegmatite intersected in holes SADD033/060/063/065. The potential quantity and grade of the lithium mineralisation at the wider Colina project is conceptual in nature, there has been insufficient exploration to estimate a Mineral Resources and it is uncertain if further exploration will confirm the target ranges. SGS has also considered the broader Colina Deposit area and independently estimated the potential Exploration Target Range . This target range is based on multiple drill hole intersections, extrapolated along strike ~ 200 meters distance, with the base of the target as the lower mineralised elevation of 400 meters. Colina exploration target range of 13.5 mt to 22 mt @ 1.2% - 1.55 % Li2O is based on recent drilling from Latin Resources and newly received assays reported on 9 November 2022. Surface occurrences, soil geochemistry and historical geophysical report were also used for the establishment of a clear exploration target in the Colina Prospect. From the data, a block of 1400 meters by 500 meters by 500 meters has been outlined and confirmed by most of the drill holes. The estimate was based on the results of 57 holes drill holes completed by Latin Resources in 2022 (as up to November 9, 2022), for a total of 14,195 meters with a maximum depth of 463 meters. Historical surface sampling of the mineralised pegmatite was also used to define the known mineralised strike length. SGS reviewed the data and geological interpretation for each mineralised pegmatite, including validation of the drillhole database, QAQC results, assays results and overall structural model. The main pegmatites zone was considered to have sufficient data to prepare an exploration target estimate using the mapped strike length as a base case for determining overall strike length. The strike length was adjusted using the positive pegmatite intersections (more than 0.3% Li2O) to estimate the mineralised strike length of the Colina zone. The main pegmatite was extrapolated to 500 meters at a dip of 45. Based on the continuity of similar deposits in the region, a "base case" estimation of tonnes and grades was applied to the zone. It is known that the Colina Prospect is composed of multiple mineralised pegmatites surrounding the main zone and are also part of the exploration targets estimation. The Company's board has recently approved an aggressive exploration budget for the wider Salinas Lithium Project. This includes the addition of four diamond drilling rigs, taking the total rigs on site to eight, operating on a double shift basis, with an estimated 65,000m planned to be drilling in the 2023. Drilling in the new year will target: Infilling drilling on the main Colina Deposit pegmatites. The newly discovered "Colina West" pegmatite swarm.The southwestern extension of Colina's high-grade pegmatite lenses; and The regional Salinas South Project area. The Company will continue to review and update the Colina resource model as more drilling information becomes available. The next major update and re-estimation for the Colina and Colina West areas is expected to be undertaken in second quarter of 2023. Annuncio • Dec 06
Latin Resources Limited Announces Ongoing Testwork Continues to Demonstrate Exceptional Metallurgy of Salinas Lithium Project with over 80% Recovery of Li2O Latin Resources Limited provided an update on an expanded program of metallurgical test work completed on drill core from the Company's 100% owned high-grade Salinas Lithium Project. Colina Prospect - Metallurgical Test Work Results Latin commissioned SGS GEOSOL laboratories, Belo Horizonte Brazil to undertake a program of HLS testwork on 10 samples representing the total strike length of the current resource drilling program. A total of 367kg of representative sample was collected and each of the samples included interstitial waste between ore zones to simulate expected mining dilution. One of the main objectives of this program was to investigate potential variability in metallurgical performance across the deposit, and at varying depths. Half of the samples were targeted in the top 50-100m of the ore body with the other half of the samples taken from the bottom 100-150 of the deposit. Results have been independently reviewed and interpreted by Met Assist Pty Ltd, whose key personnel have significant experience in lithium processing, metallurgy, and process plant design. HIGHLIGHTS: Crush size doubled to 12.5mm and recoveries and grade remain high demonstrating very coarse liberation of spodumene: Average recovery of 80.5% of Li2O; and production of extremely high-grade Li2O concentrate (up to 6.6%) from simple Heavy Liquid Separation (HLS); Exceptionally clean concentrates in -12.5mm+6.3mm size range. Concentrates well above 7.0% and as high as 7.96% Li2O achieved; Results show excellent consistency across the width and depth of the known ore body; Very coarse liberation results in minimal fines generation (~12%) which indicates a final plant design may have a low reliance on floatation as a necessary step to achieving high Li2O recovery. In addition it indicates a reduced size of any floatation plant if this option is pursued; Consistently low Fe grades in head samples and HLS concentrates is promising for the marketability of Salinas concentrates; The Company intends to proceed with bulk pilot plant testwork based on the very encouraging results obtained in this program.

The Mineral Resource has been estimated and classified by a Competent Person and is reported here in accordance with the JORC Code (2012). Project Summary: The Cloud Nine deposit is located on the company's 100% owned exploration licence E77/2622, which is situated ~350 km to the east of Perth and to the southeast of the town of Merredin. The company controls a commanding regional tenement package (Noombenberry Project), covering over 560 km2 of what the company believes is the most prospective ground in the region to identify repetitions of the highgrade Cloud Nine deposit. Mineral Resource Estimate Update Summary: The updated Mineral Resource for the Cloud Nine Deposit includes an in situ Indicated Mineral Resource of 70 Mt kaolinised granite at an average Brightness ("ISOB") grade of 81. In addition to the Indicated Mineral Resource is an in situ Inferred Mineral Resource of 210 Mt kaolinised granite at an average ISOB grade of 79, for a total global in situ Indicated and Inferred Mineral Resource of 280 Mt, an increase of ~33% from the May 2021 global estimate of 207 Mt. The Inferred Mineral Resource includes an 85 Mt highgrade (>3%) portion with an average halloysite grade of 4%. The Mineral Resource upgrade contains a total of 26.7 Mt of bright white kaolinised granite, classified as Indicated, with an ISOB grade of 81, reporting to the <45 µm size fraction. In addition, the global Mineral Resource contains 90 Mt kaolinised granite classified as Inferred, reporting to the <45 µm size fraction, with an average ISOB of 79. This domain also includes 35 Mt halloysite, averaging 10% halloysite, estimated using a 3% halloysite cutoff and reported to the <45 µm size fraction. The deposit contains low Fe contamination averaging 0.8% Fe2O3. All Mineral Resources are reported to the <45 µm fraction at a cutoff grade of 75 ISOB in accordance with Clause 49 of the JORC Code (2012). Next Steps: The company will now enter into negotiation with potential offtake customers, which will include options to supply shortterm products, as well as supplying valueadded processed kaolin and halloysite products in the longer term. Excavation of the recent test pit has provided the Company with valuable information to further refine preliminary assumptions, including mining and stockpile designs, mining method and equipment selection and preliminary geotechnical assumptions. Material samples will also assist with further testing and analysis to continue improving the understanding of the deposit including the overlying material. A preliminary desktop environmental study has also been undertaken on the Cloud Nine Project site. Outcomes of this study will be used to inform the scope of work required to support the pathway to apply for the relevant environmental approvals in support of the project. This information is being factored into an updated forward work plan to support the development of the Cloud Nine Halloysite Kaolin Deposit. Annuncio • Nov 24
Latin Resources Limited Announces Catamarca Exploration Update & Drilling at MT 03 Project Peru Latin Resources Limited provided the following update on recent reconnaissance exploration activities at the Company's high-grade Catamarca Lithium Project ("Catamarca") in Argentina and MT 03 project in Peru. An extended campaign of field work will commence with the objective of defining new drill targets, following the recent reconnaissance field visit to the Catamarca Lithium Project by the Company's Exploration Manager and in-country geology team. Field work will include detailed and systematic geological mapping and follow-up geochemical surface sampling to better understand the nature and scale of the high-grade lithium pegmatite system encountered in previous drilling completed by the Company in 2017. Results from this drilling campaign returned shallow, high-grade Li2O results2 across multiple prospect areas including: LCRC004: 3.0m @ 2.98% Li2O from 90m; LCRC002: 4.0m @ 2.3% Li2O from 30m; LCRC001: 6.0m @ 1.62% Li2O from 18m; CER004: 12.0m @ 1.38% Li2O from 29m; PDMRC002: 7.0m @ 2.17% Li20 from 39m. The planned mapping and sampling campaign will aim to finalise drill targets for the next drilling campaign. The campaign will focus on the area immediately along strike to the north and south of the known high grade Li pegmatites to identify extension to the known mineralisation; as well as to the east and west to identify the presence of new parallel systems. The Company recently met with the Catamarca Mines department to discuss intentions of Latin and its joint venture partner, Integra Capital, for the Catamarca lithium project. The meeting was very well received and productive, as a result the Company will embark on a campaign of community engagement with information relating to the recommencement of planned exploration activities. The Company will also establish a network of liaison offices within the local communities to assist in the dissemination of the exploration information, and act as a conduit for feedback for the variouscommunity stakeholders.

Latin Resources Limited Reports Results from the Recent Rare Earth Element at its 100% Owned Cloud Nine Halloysite-Kaolin Deposit in Western Australia Latin Resources Limited reported the results from the recent rare earth element (REE) analysis at its 100% owned Cloud Nine Halloysite-Kaolin Deposit ("Cloud Nine") in Western Australia. The results have confirmed REE mineralisation with anomalous concentrations in 38% of the samples. Analysis was conducted on a small random selection (one out of every 20) of existing <45 µm fraction samples collected from the recent infill drill programme at Cloud Nine. Results from 30 of 78 samples submitted for analysis have returned anomalous total rare earth oxide (TREO) concentrations of >1000ppm; five have TREO concentrations >3500 ppm, with a maximum TREO value of 3617 ppm. Importantly, a large proportion of the TREO encountered in analysis are the in-demand magnetic rare earth oxides (MREO), which are a critical component of high-performance magnets used for climateeconomy products such as electric vehicles and wind turbines. The key magnetic rare earth oxides are neodymium (Nd) and praseodymium (Pr) which form the majority of the MREO mix in the samples. The Company believes these results are encouraging and warrant further analyses to identify the extent of the REE mineralisation encountered at Cloud Nine. Latin has engaged RSC, an experienced geological consulting service company, to provide an independent review of the REE data, incorporated in this update. Kaolinite and halloysite are the primary hosts of REEs in regolith-hosted REE deposits. During weathering of granite and breakdown of feldspar to halloysite and kaolinite, REEs from the granite are retained in the regolith profile and can be adsorbed to the surface of the two clay minerals. This process leads to REE enrichment from primary granite to its weathering product. Clay-hosted REE deposits are targeted for exploration because they have low Th and U concentrations, and REEs can often be extracted via weak acids or ionic solutions. Therefore, REE concentrations in commercially extracted clay-hosted deposits can be low - typically in the range of 5002000 ppmTREO (Borst et al. 20201). The lower grade is largely offset by easier mining and lower processing costs. These deposits are generally mined by open-pit methods and little beneficiation is required. The results of these wide-spaced samples show the potential for REE at Cloud Nine; additional sampleswill now be analysed to define the extent of REE mineralisation. Leach tests (e.g. weak aqua regia, ammonium sulphate) will also be performed to determine whether the REE mineralisation can be classified as ionic-adsorption-type (weakly adsorbed to the surface of kaolinite and halloysite) or whether REEs are related to other mineral species in the regolith profile. Since the geology and geometry of the kaolinite-halloysite domains and the weathering profile at Cloud Nine are well established, the resource estimate model can be rapidly updated with REE concentrations once further analyses are received.

Latin Resources Limited Provides Update on the Preliminary "Sighter" Metallurgical Test Work Completed on Drill Core from the High-Grade Salinas Lithium Project Latin Resources Limited provided the following update on the preliminary "sighter" metallurgical test work completed on drill core from the Company's 100% owned high-grade Salinas Lithium Project. Colina Prospect - Metallurgical Test Work Results Latin commissioned SGS GEOSOL laboratories (SGS), Belo Horizonte Brazil to undertake a program of "sighter" bench scale metallurgical test work on drill core from its Salinas Lithium Project. Results have been independently reviewed and interpreted by Australian BHM Process Consultants (BHM), whose key personnel have significant experience in spodumene processing, metallurgy, and process plant design. Results of the test work has shown that simple Heavy Liquid Separation (HLS), was able to recover 78.72% of the Li2O into a concentrate grading a very high 6.57% Li2O. For the purposes of summarising and qualifying the HLS data, BHM have provided a mass balance extrapolation to a potential process scenario. BHM have combined the +6.3 and 6.3-1.7mm size fractions to represent a "Coarse DMS" process and report the -1.7 - 0.5mm as "FinesDMS" processing, and the -0.5mm fraction as "Sand Processing" relating to potential Spiral and Tabling recovery. This balance only takes into account the "sinks" material recovered at greater than the 2.85 g/cm3 specific gravity mark and may be conservative in relation to overall recovery. The coarse concentrates that have been generated from this preliminary round of test work are interpreted by BHM to be considered as a widely acceptable industry standard, by which ingress of penalty and deleterious elements such as iron are below cut-off at 0.45 - 0.61% Fe (0.64 - 0.88% Fe2O3), well below the tolerable level of 1% Fe contained. Colina Prospect - Metallurgical Test Work Details: The Company submitted approximately 44 Kg of ½ NTW drill core sourced from the Colina Prospect (Colina), drill hole SADD023 (26.88m: 94.00-120.88m), which is a twin hole to SADD016 which returned an intersection of 25.24m @ 1.25% Li2O. The sampled intersection represents a complete profile of the Colina pegmatite from the central portion of the current resource definition drilling grid. The supplied drill core was stage crushed using 31.5mm, 25.4mm, 12.5mm and 9.5mm jaw crusher openings with the objective to generate 100% of material passing in 9.5mm. Granulometric analysis of the crushed samples proved the following size distributions. Following the separation of each size fraction, a 2kg composite sample was prepared for head grade chemical analysis using a sodium peroxide fusion with ICP-AES (ICP90A/ICP90Q). SGS then undertook a staged Heavy Liquid Separation (HLS) process on the four separate size ranges, across three separate solutions with specific gravities of 3.0, 2.85 and 2.70 g/cm3. These preliminary results show that it is possible to produce an industry standard spodumene concentrate using simple HLS processing alone, and that the coarse nature of the spodumene at the Salinas Project has resulted in high recovery rates at the higher crush size. Both of these preliminary findings have significant positive implications on potential future operational scale processing options and driving strong economics for the project. The Company acknowledges that this bench scale laboratory test work only provides an indication of the expected processing performance. Furthermore, this test work does not account for changes in performance that may occur at a full-scale operational process facility. Additional test work is required before the expected recovery across the deposit for an operating plant to be estimated. Colina Prospect - Studies: As previously announced, the Company has engaged SGS Geological Services, Canada (SGS) to commence and manage a Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) on the Company's Colina Prospect, including: Develop the process definition and description based on metallurgical test work results for a process flowsheet; Prepare mine optimisation parameters for open pit design; Prepare production schedule; Define equipment requirements; Access roads review and upgrade; Assess power supply and distribution, fuel storage facilities; Assess water management facilities (reclaim water, fresh water,potable water); Estimation of capital expenditure and operational expenditure for the process plant and surface infrastructures, including general and administrative costs, according to an AACE Class 4 estimate with an accuracy of +/-40%; Produce pre-tax project economic evaluation results (IRR, NPV, payback).

Latin Resources Limited Confirms Significant New Discovery At Colina West Latin Resources Limited provided the following update on resource definition drilling and other studies currently ongoing at the Company's 100% owned high-grade Colina Prospect ("Colina"). The Salinas exploration team has reported a new lithium spodumene discovery with the recently completed hole of SADD033 approximately 500 metres west of the Colina Prospect. The drilling has discovered an intersection of a new swarm of spodumene bearing pegmatites including one of 18.75m in thickness. This discovery at Colina West has significant scale implications for the Salinas Lithium Project, if drilling confirms the presence of additional parallel mineralised pegmatite systems in close vicinity to the main Colina Prospect. In addition to this significant discovery at Colina West, the Company's regional mapping campaign has highlighted a third outcropping pegmatite system one kilometre further out to the west of the new Colina West discovery hole, as well as a potential convergence of several pegmatites, including the main Colina and new Colina West systems. The Company will look to systematically drill test both of these additional high priority target areas in due course. Logging of drill core from drill hole SADD033, collared approximately 500m to the west of the Colina Prospect resource definition area, has confirmed the hole has intersected significant spodumene pegmatites down dip from mapped outcrop. A series of 17 separate pegmatites were intersected in the hole from a depth of 62.84m down hole, with several showing good spodumene mineralisation, including one individual pegmatite of over 18.75m thickness showing strong spodumene mineralisation. Processing of the drill core from SADD033 is underway including detailed geological and structural logging and sampling, with assay results pending. This discovery at Colina West has significant implications for the Salinas Lithium Project, confirming the presence of additional parallel mineralised pegmatite systems in close vicinity to the main Colina Prospect, where the Company is currently undertaking an intensive resource definition drilling campaign, and expecting to generate its Maiden JORC Mineral Resource Estimate ("MRS") later in the year. In addition to this significant discovery at Colina West, the Company's regional mapping campaign has highlighted a third outcropping pegmatite system one kilometre further out to the west of the new Colina West discovery hole, as well as a potential convergence of several pegmatites, including the main Colina and new Colina West systems.

The Company has completed 29 holes for a total of approximately 5,890m of the estimated 25,000m resource definition drilling program. With the arrival of the fourth diamond drill rig on site, the resource definition drilling campaign is at full speed and on track to complete a maiden JORC Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE), for the Colina Prospect by the end of the year. In addition to the current resource definition drilling campaign, Latin has recommenced regional mapping activities focused on the area immediately to the west of Colina resource definition drilling. Preliminary work completed in this area during the previous mapping season identified highly weathered west dipping pegmatites. The new field mapping program will focus on better defining the known pegmatite occurrences and extend mapping coverage further out to the west looking for additional parallel systems. The Company controls a significant tenement package in the area, with the prospective stratigraphy extending across strike approximately 2.1km to the west and 1.0km to the south of Colina. Latin will send a separate regional exploration team to the Salinas South tenement area located approximately 17.0km to the southwest of Colina where the previous seasons' exploration work identified a `lithium corridor' extending across 4.0km. Soil sampling completed toward the end of the previous campaign highlighted an area of anomalous lithium in the northeast of the tenement. New mapping will focus in this area to refine the initial drill targets as well as extending geochemical sampling along the full extent of the mapped prospective corridor. Annuncio • Jul 13

Latin Resources Limited Provides Brazil Resource Definition Drilling Update Latin Resources Limited provided an update in respect of resource definition drilling at the Company's Colina Prospect which continues to return very encouraging results from detailed geological logging; as well as provide initial observations from drilling at the Company's second target area, the Monte Alto Prospect. Colina Prospect Resource Definition Drilling: Extensive resource definition drilling is now well underway at the Company's Colina Lithium Prospect in Brazil. The drilling campaign comprises an estimated 100 holes for approximately 22,000 - 25,000m, and will focus on a strike extent of 800m, where previous drilling has identified high-grade lithium bearing pegmatites. As previously reported, the first hole of the resource drilling campaign SADD016, has intersected a very wide 27.78 meters of coarse-grained fresh pegmatite, with geological logging identifying a core zone of 21.48 meters with a visual estimation of spodumene of over 20%. Logging of drill hole SADD017 2, drilled immediately down dip from SADD016, has also confirmed a significant intersection of spodumene bearing pegmatite, further demonstrating the strong continuity of the pegmatites at the Colina Prospect. Resource definition drilling is ongoing. Monte Alto Prospect Drilling of the first five holes at the Monte Alto Prospect has been completed. Logging of these holes has highlighted a moderate north-easterly plunge, not previously recognised in the weathered surface outcrop; with the initial three holes (MADD001 - MADD003) failing to intersect the targeted pegmatite zone at depth. Following a re-examination of the outcropping pegmatite within the historic trenching and workings, combined with new structural information gained from drilling the next two holes (MADD004 and MADD005), were relocated 100m and 200m to the north-east respectively, to test the projected down plunge extension of the pegmatite. Logging has confirmed that both of these latest two holes (MADD004 and MADD005), have intersected pegmatite, however no material spodumene was logged in the core. This outcome has led to the interpretation that the Monte Alto pegmatites may represent a zoned heterogeneous pegmatite; an interpretation that is supported by the presence of some exotic minerals mapped in adjacent pegmatites in the Monte Alto area. Further drilling is required to fully understand the significant of these initial observations. Annuncio • May 19

Latin Resources Limited Announces Diamond Drill Testing of High-Grade Outcropping Lithium Pegmatites At the Company's Second Prospect Area, the Monte Alto Prospect in Brazil Latin Resources Limited announced that diamond drill testing of high-grade outcropping lithium pegmatites at the Company's second prospect area, the Monte Alto Prospect in Brazil, has commenced. The latest assays from drilling at the Company's first prospect, the Bananal Valley Prospect to the west, continue to return exceptional results. The latest results from the ongoing drilling at the Bananal Valley Prospect have returned the thickest intersection to date with 21.1m @ 1.20% Li2O from 208.8m in hole SADD006. These results have reaffirmed the Company's belief that the Salinas Lithium Project may represent a significant new lithium discovery, with lithium intersections from holes SADD005 and SADD006. These results, have now confirmed the presence of thick high-grade lithium bearing pegmatites over a strike extent of more than 600m, prompting the Company to commence a large systematic drilling campaign over the area aimed at providing sufficient data to undertake a maiden Mineral Resource Estimate ("MRE") for the Salinas Lithium Project. This resource definition drill out is expected to comprise approximately 25,000m of diamond drilling, testing a full 800m strike length of the known high-grade pegmatites, from surface to a down dip depth of around 400m. This extended strike length is based on recent positive drill holes executed on the central target, located some 300m to the north of hole SADD001. This activity, with multiple drilling rigs committed to the drill out of the project, will enable the Company to fast track its next major milestone of a maiden JORC resource. Drilling rig access to the Monte Alto site has now been established, with the drilling rig on site ready to commence coring. The Company is planning to undertake an initial 2,000m drilling campaign to test the strike extent of the outcropping spodumene bearing pegmatites, where initial sampling has returned high-grade lithium with multiple high-grade results up to 2.30% Li2O 3.

Latin Resources Limited Announces the First Assay Results from Drilling at the Salinas Lithium Project in Brazil Latin Resources Limited announced that the first assay results from drilling at the Salinas Lithium Project in Brazil (Salinas Lithium Project), have confirmed that the previously reported spodumene rich pegmatites contain high-grade lithium with a peak grade of 3.22% Li2O returned from one sample. These positive assay results at the Salinas Lithium Project in Brazil are growing Latin's confidence of a potential new, high-grade lithium discovery. Assay results from the sampled pegmatite zones in the first two diamond holes (SADD001 and SADD002), show that the two main logged pegmatites, both contain significant lithium, with Peg_2 showing a consistent higher grade in both holes. Drilling on all five sections in the Southern Target area has demonstrated strong continuity of the logged pegmatites both along strike and down dip, with the emerging pegmatite swarm remaining open in all directions. Detailed logging, core cutting and sampling of all drill holes from this area is now complete with assay results from the next holes SADD003 and SADD004 anticipated within the next few weeks. Drilling of the initial six priority Phase 1 drill holes across four drill sections in the Southern Target area has shown all six holes intersecting a series of stacked spodumene rich pegmatites. Logging has confirmed that the individual pegmatites range in true thickness to a maximum of 21.1m (Peg_2 SADD006), with a clear trend for the pegmatites to increase in thickness to the south. Drilling of holes SADD008-SADD010 in the Northern Target area, has confirmed that the intersected pegmatites are narrower in this direction, suggesting that the system may be closing out to the northeast. All logging and sampling has been completed from these holes, with assay results pending. The drilling focus has now returned to the Southern Target area containing pegmatites that are significantly thicker and remain open to the south, where the Company will commence infill and step-out drilling. Detailed structural logging and petrological test work on the main pegmatites will be undertaken to assist in developing the detailed 3D model of the emerging pegmatite swarm.

Latin Resources Limited Confirms the Ongoing Diamond Drilling Campaign at the Salinas Lithium Project in Brazil Latin Resources Limited confirmed that the ongoing diamond drilling campaign at the Company's Salinas Lithium Project in Brazil (Salinas or the Project), is continuing to intersect thick, shallow dipping spodumene rich pegmatites, with SADD003 returning a best intercept of 16.17m true thickness. As previously reported, the Company's initial drillhole SADD001, intersected three separate spodumene bearing pegmatites down dip from high-grade lithium outcrop samples 1. Drilling of thenext two holes is now complete, with SADD002 targeting approximately 100m down dip from SADD001, and SADD003 some 180m to the south along strike. All three holes have intersected the same three layers of pegmatites. Preliminary logging of the drill core from all holes has indicated that the pegmatites contain a significant abundance of coarse light green and purplish spodumene crystals throughout with indications that the thickness of the intersected pegmatites is increasing down dip and along strike to the south. Drill section A - A' and Drill section B - B' below, show all three of the completed drill holes along with the current hole SADD004. As can be seen, the three separate spodumene bearing pegmatites have been intersected in all holes to date, with logging indicating an increase in the true width of all three pegmatites to the south. Detailed logging, core cutting and sampling of the first three holes is progressing well, with the first samples ready for dispatch to the laboratory for analysis. Given the early success, the Company anticipates that the current drilling campaign will be expanded following the completion of the current program, with the potential to add additional holes based on logging.

Latin Resources Limited Commences Drilling at Salinas Lithium Project in Brazil Latin Resources Limited confirmed that drilling has commenced, with the top 90 metres of the first hole intersecting multiple zones of spodumene bearing pegmatites at the Company's Salinas Lithium Project in Brazil, where the Company has defined multiple priority drill targets in what has been described as a lithium corridor. Whilst drilling is ongoing to target depth, the Company is pleased to note that already three separate shallow-dipping spodumene pegmatites have been intersected in the first drill hole SADD001. The intersection of multiple spodumene pegmatites down dip from the high-grade outcrop (2.71% Li2O and 1.45% Li2O 1), in the first hole drilled proves Latin's concept for the region and has greatly enhanced the potential for a significant lithium discovery in the Bananal Valley. The hole SADD001 intersected a number of spodumene pegmatite up to 5.25m thick and is currently at a drill depth of approximately 90m and is planned to continue to a depth of 120m or when mineralisation finishes. The geological team expect to see thicker zones as these pegmatites are known to pinch and swell as evidenced in the Company's surface mapping and sampling.

Latin Resources Limited Confirms Arrival of Two Diamond Drill Rigs on Site and to Commence Drilling over the Next Few Days on its Salinas Lithium Project in Brazil Latin Resources Limited confirmed two diamond drill rigs have arrived on site and will commence drilling over the next few days on the Company's Salinas Lithium Project in Brazil ("Salinas" or the "Project"), where the Company has defined multiple priority drill targets. Salinas is located in the highly prospective Bananal Valley district of Minas Gerais Province of Eastern Brazil. Minas Gerais hosts the Eastern Brazilian lithium pegmatite province, home to CAD 1.3 billion market cap Sigma Lithium Corporation. The Company has planned a total of 14 diamond drill holes initially to test the outcropping high-grade Li bearing pegmatites identified in previous mapping and geochemical sampling programs. The drilling is designed to test two priority target areas where sampling has returned multiple high-grade results including 2.71% Li2O and 1.45% Li2O i from highly weathered spodumene bearing pegmatites, mapped over a strike length of over 1.2 kilometres within the Company's tenure. The proposed drilling campaign will be the first drilling to test this highly anomalous and outcropping mineralised trend in a region that currently contains 100% of Brazil's official lithium reserves. SALINAS: Initial results from the 38-reconnaissance stream sediment sampling conducted over the Salinas South project have highlighted a "lithium corridor" extending northeast- southwest across the tenement for over six kilometres, with a cluster of highly anomalous results from drainage sampling in the northeast of the tenement. These results represent a significant blind anomaly in an area which is devoid of any outcrop. The high-grade stream sediment results which peak at 158ppm Li 1 are well above the background results of 45ppm Li, as determined by Latin's baseline reference sampling downstream from a known high-grade Li bearing spodumene pegmatite. The Company will drill a total of 14 holes to test the outcropping high-grade Li bearing pegmatites identified in previous mapping and geochemical sampling programs. The drilling is designed to test two priority target areas where sampling has returned multiple high-grade results including 2.71% Li2O and 1.45% Li2O 2 from highly weathered spodumene bearing pegmatites, mapped over a strike length of over 1.2 kilometres within the Company's tenure. The drilling campaign will be the first drilling to test this highly anomalous and outcropping mineralised trend in an underexplored region that currently contains 100% of the Brazil's official lithium reserves.

Latin Resources Limited Announces High-Grade Results from Cloud Nine Halloysite-Kaolin Deposit Latin Resources Limited provided an update on the commencement of the 2022 site based exploration activities at the Cloud Nine HalloysiteKaolin deposit in Western Australia. Following a short break of the Christmas and New Year period, field activities at Cloud Nine have now recommenced. The Company is continuing to progress advanced metallurgical, mineral resource and other studies as part of its ongoing evaluation of the deposit, including preparation for a maiden core drilling campaign to collect metallurgical and geotechnical samples. The Company has secured a specialised sonic drilling contractor with experience specific in coring kaolinised granite. A tenhole drilling program has been designed to provide sufficient core samples to conduct bulk density test work on a number of representative units across Cloud Nine, as well as providing additional core samples for ongoing detailed metallurgical test work. The final halloysite results via XRD analysis have been returned from the close spaced geostatistical cross drilling at the Company's 100% owned Cloud Nine HalloysiteKaolin Deposit near Merredin, Western Australia . Drilling results once again, continue to demonstrate the consistent nature of the halloysite bearing material within the area tested at Cloud Nine and reinforces its position as a globally significant halloysite deposit. The Company has previously reported a JORC Inferred Mineral Resource of 207Mt of kaolinised granite at Cloud Nine, which includes separate domains containing 123Mt of brightwhite kaolinite and 84Mt of kaolin/halloysitebearing material. The last 13 drillholes to be analysed from the closespaced drilling, have returned consistent halloysite grades and thicknesses, further confirming the high quality of the area tested. The recent results also confirmed the continued presence of two discreet zone of halloysite bearing material within the kaolinised granite clays. Exceptionally highgrade halloysite intersections, including 36% and 46% halloysite, were encountered within the broader zones. Significant results received from the southern portion of the Geostatistical Cross include: NBAC378: 6m @ 24% halloysite from 7m and 13m @ 18% halloysite from 21m NBAC380: 16m @ 27% halloysite from 14m NBAC381: 12m @16% halloysite from 19m Incl: 2m @ 28% halloysite from 21m NBAC382: 6m @ 26% halloysite from 14m Incl: 2m @ 36% halloysite from 16m NBAC383: 18m @ 26% halloysite from 7m Incl: 6m @ 46% halloysite from 17m NBAC388: 20m @ 13% halloysite from 8m NBAC389: 16m @ 12% halloysite from 8m. A specialist drilling contractor has been engaged to complete approximately 400 metres of drilling using the sonic drilling technique, at representative locations within the Cloud Nine Mineral Resource area. The sonic drilling system has demonstrated elsewhere that it can provide competent core samples of kaolinised granite like that found within Cloud Nine. The core samples will be used to determine, a deposit specific, bulk density for the geological domains used in the current JORC Mineral Resource Estimate at Cloud Nine, along with providing additional samples material for the Company's ongoing metallurgical test work. Drilling is scheduled to commence in late February 2022. Bulk samples required for studies by the Company's research partner, CRC CARE Pty Ltd. are currently being collected from drill samples on site. This will enable commencement of the highly specialised test work as part of the Company's collaboration with CRC CARE, in an effort to develop critical methane and other Green House Gas capture technology. This collaboration between Latin and CRC CARE is a significant investment by the Company. Annuncio • Jan 24

Latin Resources Limited Provides Update on Salinas Lithium Project in Brazil Latin Resources Limited provided an update of recent and ongoing activities at the Company's Salinas Lithium Project in Brazil, where the Company has defined multiple drill targets and submitted drill permits to commence drilling. The Company has also secured two new highly prospective tenements to grow its footprint at the project area with known outcropping high-grade lithium spodumene bearing pegmatites. Salinas is located in the highly prospective Jequitinhonha Valley district of Minas Gerais Province of eastern Brazil. Minas Gerais hosts the Eastern Brazilian lithium pegmatite province, home to TSX-V listed Sigma Lithium Corporation and lithium producer Companhia Brasilia de Lítio. The Company has finalised a total of 14 drill sites to test the outcropping high-grade Li bearing pegmatites identified in previous mapping and geochemical sampling programs. Drill permits have been submitted for the Phase I drillholes, with drilling scheduled to commence in February 2022. Additional permits for the follow-up Phase II holes will be lodged in the coming weeks. The drilling is designed to test two priority target areas where sampling has returned multiple high- grade results including 2.71% Li2O and 1.45% Li2Oi from highly weathered spodumene bearing pegmatites, mapped over a strike length of over 1.2 kilometres within the Company's tenure. The proposed drilling campaign will be the first drilling to test this highly anomalous and outcropping mineralised trend in an underexplored region that currently contains 100% of the Brazil's official lithium reserves. Lithium, as a highly volatile element, is rapidly leached and depleted from weathered spodumene. Therefore, the presence of remnant lithium anomalism of this calibre in weathered outcrop is extremely encouraging and worthy of a targeted drilling campaign. Annuncio • Aug 20
Latin Resources Limited Provides an Update of Recent and Ongoing Activities At the Company's Salinas Lithium Project Latin Resources Limited provided an update of recent and ongoing activities at the Company's Salinas Lithium Project ("Salinas" or the "Project"), located in the highly prospective Jequitinhonha Valley district of Minas Gerais Provence of eastern Brazil. Minas Gerais hosts the Eastern Brazilian lithium pegmatite province, home to TSX-V listed Sigma Lithium Corporation and lithium producer Companhia Brasileira de Lítio (CBL). In March 2021, the Company announced its intention to commence field work on the Salinas Lithium Project in Brazil; however, activities were delayed due to a major COVID-19 outbreak in the region resulting in widespread lockdowns and travel restrictions. There has been a significant improvement in the local COVID situation and corresponding easing of restrictions,allowing Latin's fully vaccinated field team to safely commence on-ground activities. The field team has recently completed its initial site visit originally planned for earlier in the year, with a number of highly encouraging results, suggesting strong potential for hard-rock lithium atthe Salinas Project, as detailed within this announcement. The Jequitinhonha valley is a highly underexplored region that currently contains 100% of the official lithium reserves of Brazil. Latin Resources' geologists completed major field work on the tenements in 2019 in which they located several occurrences of spodumene never previously known or reported. Latin Resources' lithium exploration efforts will now focus on advancing this highly prospective spodumene tenure. The Company's in-country resources will be working exclusively on these Brazilian lithium projects so they can effectively execute exploration programs to deliver exploration updates and results to its shareholders in a timely manner. The exploration program carried out by Latin Resources in 2019 showed numerous pegmatites hosted in schist, which showed homogenous spodumene mineralisation. The pegmatites cross-cut the rivers with exposure in a general NNW trend and continued into the neighbouring tenement to the south. Further work on the pegmatites have now been followed up to determine their relationship to the Salinas main pegmatite which is 1.5km NE. The 600m distance between points in the west and points in the east showing spodumene mineralisation is a good sign for a potentialy continuous pegmatite system below surface. Desktop studies completed during the hiatus in field work included the compilation and
review of historic data and results from previous explorers in the area. The historical work includes extensive abandoned mines and outcrop, where Latin has undertaken work previously when it first identified the opportunity to secure these high-quality tenements in 2019. The recent review process has resulted in the identification and ranking of a number of targets in three key areas key focus areas, where Latin intends to undertake
systematic mapping and sampling over the coming weeks, with the aim of finalising drill targets. The initial focus of exploration work was the Bananal Valley area located in the northeast of the properties. Detailed mapping, stream sediment and outcrop sampling was completed across an area of approximately 4 square kilometres. Several spodumene bearing pegmatites were mapped at surface, over strike lengths of more than 200m. A total of 44 outcrop samples and 38 stream sediment samples were collected in the field. All samples have been dispatched to the laboratory for analysis, with results anticipated in September 2021. Annuncio • Jun 25
Latin Resources Limited Receives Results from First Pass Reconnaissance Rock Chip Sampling from the Peep O'day Prospect Latin Resources Limited announced that recently received results from first pass reconnaissance rock chip sampling from the Peep O'Day Prospect within the NSW Yarara JV Project i, has confirmed the presence of gold mineralisation in the area. A total of 57 samples were collected in the field by Latin's Geological team as a part of the first pass reconnaissance mapping exercise, which showed the area was dominated by altered granitic rocks, cut through by a stockwork of sheeted quartz veins. Samples were taken from both the veins themselves and the altered wall rock, both of which have returned anomalous gold mineralisation. Assay results from samples along the strike extent of the workings have shown distinct clusters of gold mineralisation, indicating the system may be open and extend to the north and south under cover. In total, approximately 30% of the samples collected have returned gold grades greater than 1.0 gram per tonne with some of the better results from the individually sampled veins including: 9.78g/t Au, 8.58g/t Au, 8.41g/t Au and 7.79g/t Au, with the altered wall rock returning grades up to 4.53g/t Au. A detailed systematic surface geochemical sampling program is currently underway on site to better define the Peep O'Day gold trend. A drone magnetic survey planned for the coming weeks, will assist in better defining the interpreted gold trend and assist in planning further work. Based on the results from the geochemical sampling and geophysical survey, the Company will look to undertake additional on-ground exploration work in the wider Peep O'Day area, which may include additional grid mapping, infill soil sampling, and trenching across the interpreted mineralised trend.

Latin Resources Limited Announces Maiden JORC Mineral Resource - Noombenberry Project Latin Resources Limited announced the completion of the Company's Maiden Inferred Mineral Resource for the 100% owned Noombenberry Halloysite-Kaolin Project (‘Noombenberry’ or the ‘Project’), where the Company has named its first deposit the Cloud Nine Deposit (‘Cloud Nine’). The Mineral Resource has been estimated and classified by a Competent Person and is reported here in accordance with the JORC Code (2012). Within only 18 months of identifying the opportunity for halloysite, given the very shallow nature of the resources (average <4 m from the surface) the Company has been able to rapidly define this maiden MRE, which has substantial potential to grow, being open in all directions. The Company intends to expedite the next round of drilling to elevate some of the Resources to the Indicated or Measured classification for the purposes of a PFS, which can all be funded with existing cash of more than $4 million at end of March 2021. The Could Nine deposit is located on the Company's 100% owned exploration licence E70/2622, which is situated approximately 350km to the east of Perth and to the southeast of the town of Merredin. The Company controls a commanding regional tenement package, covering over 560km2 of what the Company believes is the most prospective ground in the region to identify repetitions of the high-grade Cloud Nine deposit. Initial reconnaissance sampling to the northeast of the Cloud Nine Deposit has confirmed additional occurrences of ultra-bight white kaolin and high-grade halloysite, with results of over 25% halloysite from one site and 84 ISO-B kaolin from the other. Inferred Mineral Resource Estimate Summary: A global Inferred Mineral Resource estimate for the Cloud Nine Deposit of 207Mt of kaolinised granite has been reported by RSC, using an ISO Brightness (‘ISO-B’) R457 cut-off of 75. The global kaolinised granite Resource contains a total of 73Mt of bright white (+75 ISO-B) Kaolin product with an ISO-B of 79 in the -45 µm size fraction, or 29Mt of ultra-bright white (+80 ISO-B) kaolin product with an ISO-B of 82; both of which are considered high-quality product specifications, potentially suitable for a range of industrial applications. The global Resource also contains a relatively contiguous halloysite domain within the kaolinised granite. This domain contains 50Mt at an average grade 6% halloysite, using a 1% halloysite cut-off; or 35Mt at an average grade of 6% halloysite, using a +75 ISO-B cut-off; or 27Mt at an average grade of 8% halloysite using a +5% halloysite cut-off. Data from the drilling show the presence of high-grade halloysite, with up to 41% halloysite reported in one hole 8, and numerous intersections over 20% halloysite. Additional drilling to better define these high-grade zones will be undertaken in upcoming drilling campaigns aimed at extending the current resource to the north and increasing the confidence of the MRE to the Indicated and Measured classification.

Latin Resources Limited Announces Results from the Initial Batch of Samples from Air-Core Drilling At the Company's 100% Owned Noombenberry Project Latin Resources Limited announced that results from the initial batch of samples from air-core drilling at the Company's 100% owned Noombenberry Project (Noombenberry or the Project), have been returned from the laboratory. Results from the first 100 samples submitted for test work have confirmed the project contains very-high grade halloysite, with individual composite sample grades of up to 37% halloysite1, contained within the bright white (>75 ISO-B) to ultra-bright white (>84 IOS-B) kaolinite at Noombenberry. Intersections of kaolinized granite in the 14 holes for which results have been received to date average 13 meters, up to a maximum of 32 meters thickness, while the average depth to the top of the kaolinite zone in these holes is just 8m below surface. While this first batch of results represents >15% of the total number of holes drilled, these initial results are extremely encouraging which enables the Company to move forward to undertake its maiden JORC resource on the Project. The nature of kaolinite and halloysite mineralisation, being very similar minerals means that very detailed and time-consuming test work is required to gain accurate and reliable results. Latin has been working closely with the various groups undertaking the test work of the Noombenberry samples, including Bureau Veritas Laboratories, CSIRO, and the University of South Australia to streamline this process and enable a steady throughput of samples. The result of this collaboration is that Latin now expects to receive regular results consistently from all groups on a weekly basis. The Company plans to re-commence drilling once all statutory approvals have been received to extend the current drill coverage into its adjacent 100% owned tenement (E77/2624), where these initial results show the bright-white kaolin and high grade halloysite mineralisation is open to the north. Logging of the aircore samples from all the holes across the very large 18km2 area tested at Noombenberry has shown the development of a thick consistent blanket of kaolinized granite. With these initial results confirming the bright white nature of the kaolinite material, and halloysite development in a high proportion of the holes where results have been received; the company is very confident about the potential of this emerging and exciting discovery. Latin has formally engaged a suitable independent consulting group to undertake a maiden JORC resource estimate for the Noombenberry Project mineralisation.

The Company completed 197 drill holes for a total of 4,430 meters of vertical shallow air-core drilling over an area of approximately 4.5km by 4.0km (18km2), to test the extents of a known Kaolinite - Halloysite occurrence where previous sampling has returned results of 38.9% Kaolinite, 15% Halloysite and 31.8% K-feldspar from the 45-180 micron fraction 2. The initial phase of drilling on a regular 400m x 400m grid pattern was completed prior to the Christmas break, with a second phase of off-set infill drilling to a nominal 200m x 200m pattern focussed on thicker zones of logged kaolinitic clays completed in the first weeks of January 2021. Logging of air-core drill cuttings has confirmed significant intersections of bright white kaolinite across the area tested, with a maximum logged down hole intersection of 50 meters (NBAC058). This sequence of well-developed kaolinitic clay (saprolite) beneath a thin layer of soil cover is consistent across the area tested, as demonstrated in a simplified geological cross section 6,494,000mN which cuts through the centre of area of drilling. Composite samples from the air-core drilling will be sent to laboratories in Perth and Adelaide where they will undergo detailed test work including; size fraction analysis, brightness testing, definitive clay mineral species quantification via a combination of X-Ray Diffraction ("XRD"), and spectral scanning, along with other elemental analysis via X-Ray Florence ("XRF"). Initial results from test work are anticipated to be returned from the laboratory in the February 2021.

Latin Resources Limited Provides Noombenberry Halloysite Kaolin Project Update Latin Resources Limited provided the following update on its various projects and ongoing exploration activities at its Noombenberry Halloysite Kaolin Project (" NHKP" or "Noombenberry") in WA. PROJECTS UPDATE: Noombenberry Halloysite Kaolin Project, WA: Land access agreements with key landholders have now been signed, providing for commencement of Latin's maiden systematic drilling campaign at Noombenberry, located approximately 300km to the east of Perth, Western Australia. The Company plans to complete a systematic first pass, shallow air-core drilling program at the NHKP. The aim of the drilling, which will comprise approximately 200m spaced vertical, shallow (>50m) air- core drill holes, is to ascertain the extent and material characteristics of the Halloysite mineralisation within the project area. Pending receipt of final Program of Work ("POW") approvals from the WA Department of Mines, Industry Regulation and Safety ("DMIRS"), Latin anticipates undertaking this maiden air core exploration drilling in the current quarter. Analysis of surface samples collected as part of a reconnaissance mapping exercise in late 2019 have returned very encouraging results, with one site, "Location 4" returning results of 38.9% Kaolinite, 15% Halloysite and 31.8% K-feldspar from the 45-180 micron fraction. These surface sample grades provide encouragement for the potential for high grade halloysite kaolin at Noombenberry, which has a higher market value for broad industrial applications than the more commonly occurring kaolin without the presence of halloysite, which has a lower value market application for paper product manufacture. These samples were previously reported after Scanning Electron Microscopy ("SEM"), analysis by First Test Minerals ("FTM"), identified halloysite occurrence within the kaolinite. FTM have been established in kaolin mineral analysis for over 30 years. Noombenberry, which also hosts kaolin, presents a particularly compelling opportunity for Latin with halloysite being a globally scarce commodity with strong demand drivers. The main markets for Halloysite are ceramics, batteries and super capacitors, the construction industry and the petroleum industry as a catalyst for fluid catalytic cracking. There are also emerging markets developing such as nanotube technologies and cancer therapeutics. Potential low-cost operation The 117 square kilometre project is less than 300 kilometres east of Perth and covers two contiguous granted tenements, E77/2622 and E77/2624 an one new tenement application (E77/2719). All services required for a potential low-cost mining operation are in close proximity with minimal ground disturbance required, while Fremantle Port is easily accessible via the Great Eastern Highway. The company believes there is a potential opportunity once a resource is defined to move the project into a feasibility study then production on the back of positive results from drilling. The price of both Kaolin and Halloysite has been rising with commercial grade kaolin selling for up to AUD 600 per tonne and high grade halloysite selling for up to AUD 4,000 per tonne. The objective of the company is to complete drilling in the December quarter along with assay results then define a JORC resource in March Quarter of 2021. Annuncio • Oct 04
Latin Resources Limited Announces DD on Argentina Lithium Projects with Integra Approved Latin Resources Limited announced that Integra Capital S.A. have completed their Due Diligence and will enter into a transformational joint venture agreement on the Company's Catamarca lithium Pegmatite projects. The agreement underpins the strategic approach by Latin in identifying, acquiring and advancing large-scale land positions of highly prospective mineral projects to attract joint venture partners. The signing of the final Joint Venture Agreement is intended to be completed in October. Following completion, Integra will take a 10% placement in Latin Resources. Integra will spend up to USD 1 million (AUD 1.4 million) under a Joint Venture ("JV") which will underpin an aggressive exploration program on the Catamarca concessions, with the initial aim of delivering a maiden JORC resource. Following the release of a maiden JORC resource on the projects, the Joint Venture focus will turn to project development, including feasibility, engineering and metallurgy studies to produce a lithium spodumene concentrate. Latin has already developed a high-level scoping study with consulting engineers Primero Group for development of the Argentinian lithium assets. Under the JV, Latin will be free-carried through initial exploration with financing for the construction of the processing plant to be in line with percentage ownership between Integra and Latin of the project partnership at the time of the Final Investment Decision.
