China Dongsheng International Inc.'S Subsidiary Titan Lithium, Inc. Announced the X-Ray Diffraction Results for Various Selected Samples from Its Auger Drill Program Conducted At the Both the Titan 1 and Titan 2 Projects in Tanzania China Dongsheng International Inc. through its wholly owned subsidiary Titan Lithium, Inc. announced the X-ray diffraction (XRD) results for various selected samples from its auger drill program conducted at the both the Titan 1 and Titan 2 projects in Tanzania. The aim of the analysis was to identify and quantify the lithium bearing minerals present at the projects that have resulted in the anomalous lithium values as previously reported at the projects. The results confirm Lepidolite, Spodumene and Hectorite as the predominant Lithium bearing mineral species. As previously reported, an independent analysis from Advanced Spaceborne Thermal Emission and Reflection radiometer (“ASTER”) spectral data over the Titan projects defined anomalies both coincident with its 2023 soil analysis and, as well, highlighted key lithological and mineralogical assemblages associated with lithium mineralization such as hectorite. The Auger drill program examined the top geologic horizons of the deep Titan basins that underlie portions of the large ASTER and soil anomalous regions on the two projects. The program was generally able to penetrate down to 40 feet and geologic observation recorded mainly a stratum composed of gray, to reddish brown to gray green clay horizons within the recovered material. Forty-seven (47) samples were selected for XRD analysis from various depths within 17 auger holes on the Titan 1 project and 3 auger holes on the Titan 2 project. X-ray Diffraction (XRD) is method of mineral identification whereby dry powered samples are bombarded by X-rays over a range of angles to determine the different crystal structures their abundance present in a sample. Additionally, 15 sample duplicates were run for quality assurance. The XRD analysis was performed by the University of Dar es Salaam, which has a fully equipped lab which enables them to test a wide range of ore types, with their recent focus on the growing lithium sector. The XRD results indicated that Lepidolite, a micaceous lithium bearing mineral as well as Spodumene, a pyroxene mineral commonly associated with lithium bearing pegmatites occur along with Hectorite within the clay horizons. The composite abundance of these three minerals ranged from less than 1% up to 15% of the clay horizons on the Titan projects with the average abundance observed across the various horizons at Titan 1 recorded at 6.3% and 8.8% at Titan 2. For both projects, the lithium minerals were recorded in every sample and a general trend of increased abundance of the lithium-bearing minerals was returned as the company went deeper from the surface.

The Company has retained Dr. Joas Kabete as technical director of Kilimanjaro Lithium Ltd. to supervise an auction drilling program to better understand the geology of Titan 1. Commencement of drilling to begin this week at Titan 1 to a depth of 100 feet with a minimum of 5 drill holes. Announcement • Aug 23
China Dongsheng International, Inc. Extends North Block Zone to Third of 2.9 Mines with New High Grade Samples Including 2.75% Li2O China Dongsheng International, Inc. announced strong Lithium geochemical sampling results from an infill soil sampling program at the company's expansive Titan 1 lithium property in Tanzania. As part of extensive geochemical sampling program which is attempting to define the outer boundaries of the massive Titan 1 Lithium discovery, crews returned to the North Block T1 anomaly to infill an area between samples that were announced on March 7th, 2023 and those announced in May 24th, 2023 news releases. Much of exploration has focused on the South Block, however, sampling efforts on the North Block indicate an equally strong lithium anomaly that now extends over 8 miles north to south and approximately 3 miles east to west. The 'North and South Blocks' are separated by a narrow east-west zone of low to nil Lithium values which appear to be coincident with a fault structure in the Pangani Rift Valley where the Titan 1 project sits. The north samples received strong lithium results. Within the positive values recovered the lowest grade sample returned 800 ppm Li, while the highest-grade value returned 2.75% Li2O (12,800 ppm Li). The North Block sampling now has been extended to cover approximately 21 square miles (54 sq kms). Both the North and South Block areas are underlain by a thick volcano-sedimentary sequence deposited by continental rift related volcanism, the likely source of lithium in the region. All soil samples all consistently removed from the B soil horizon, from a depth of 5 to 10 inches. The samples were dried, prepared and analyzed at the independent and ISO 9001 certified African Minerals and Geosciences Centre (AMGC) in Dar es Salaam.
