Green Technology Metals (ASX:GT1)

GT1 is a North American focussed lithium exploration and development business. The Company’s Ontario Lithium Projects comprise high-grade, hard rock spodumene assets (Seymour, Root and Wisa) and lithium exploration claims (Allison and Solstice) located on highly prospective Archean Greenstone tenure in north-west Ontario, Canada. All sites are proximate to excellent existing infrastructure (including hydro power generation and transmission facilities), readily accessible by road, and with nearby rail delivering transport optionality. Seymour has an existing Mineral Resource estimate of 4.8 Mt @ 1.25% Li2O (comprised of 2.1 Mt at 1.29% Li2O Indicated and 2.7 Mt at 1.24% Li2O Inferred).1 Accelerated, targeted exploration across all three projects delivers outstanding potential to grow resources rapidly and substantially.
