Lithium Anomalies Defined at Mt Dove in Pilbara Western Australia

Flynn Gold Limited (ASX: FG1, “Flynn” or “the Company”) is pleased to announce results from its in-fill soil sampling program at its 100% owned Mt Dove lithium-gold project in Western Australia. The program was designed to evaluate multiple lithium and gold anomalies outlined from the Company’s 2022 Ultra-fine fraction (UFF) soil sampling program.1 


Highlights

  • Seven high priority lithium anomalies confirmed and enhanced by in-fill soil sampling at the Mt Dove Project in the Pilbara region of Western Australia
  • Coherent lithium anomalies extend up to 3,100m length within predominantly shallow sand covered eastern part of licence area
  • Outcropping pegmatite samples, with high rubidium (max 0.14% Rb) identified within the highest priority lithium anomaly
  • Project located near world class Pilgangoora (ASX:PLS) and Wodgina (ASX:MIN) lithium mines and Hemi gold deposit (ASX:DEG)
  • Mt Dove Project also near recent lithium pegmatite discoveries at Tabba Tabba (ASX:WC8) and Pippingarra (ASX:IND)
  • Planning underway for design and permitting of a first pass aircore drilling program to cover high-priority targets

The Mt Dove project is located approximately 25km NNW of Mineral Resources’ (ASX: MIN) Wodgina Lithium Mine, 34km WNW of Pilbara Minerals’ (ASX: PLS) Pilgangoora Lithium Mine, 12km SE of De Grey Mining’s (ASX: DEG) Hemi gold deposit, 45km SW of Wildcat Resources’ (ASX: WC8) Tabba Tabba lithium deposit and 41km SSW of Industrial Metals’ (ASX: IND) Pippingarra lithium prospect in the Pilbara region (see Figure 1).

Managing Director and CEO, Neil Marston commented,

 

“The Mt Dove in-fill soil sampling program has confirmed seven broad areas of lithium and associated pathfinder element anomalism, highlighting the exciting lithium potential of the project.

“Flynn has recently commenced an accelerated work program on its Mt Dove, Lake Johnston and Forrestania lithium projects in Western Australia.”

“The projects are located close to world class lithium deposits and some exciting new discoveries including the Tabba Tabba and Pippingarra projects in the Pilbara and the Burmeister, Jaegermeister and Mt Gordon prospects in the Lake Johnston region.

“The aim of our fieldwork has been to identify pegmatite bodies across our tenements from mapping, sampling and target generation for drill testing. We look forward to providing updates to shareholders on our exploration progress including the plans for our first drill program.”

Soil Sampling Program

The results from an in-fill soil sampling program at the Mt Dove project (E45/5055) have been received and have outlined seven high priority coherent lithium anomalies with associated pathfinder geochemistry and eleven lower priority, less coherent lithium anomalies (Figure 2). The program has been successful in confirming and enhancing the seven high priority lithium geochemical anomalies and in providing further detail of the pathfinder zonation trends (refer to Table 1 and Appendix 1 for further details).

The seven high priority anomalies reveal broad areas of lithium soil anomalism extending between 600m and 3,100m in length and between 200m and 1,000m in width. The soil anomalies have been defined by clusters of samples which are greater than 75ppm Li (+160ppm Li2O) for the original UFF samples and greater than 21ppm Li (+45ppm Li2O) for the recent -2mm soil samples. These are considered significant anomalies particularly when taking into account the supporting associated pathfinder anomalism and trends (Figures 5 - 9).

Ekin Ober on Why AI Could Be Mining’s Most Valuable Tool Yet

For Ekin Ober, bringing generative artificial intelligence (AI) to the critical metals sector through her work at Aethos Labs wasn’t just about technological innovation — it reshaped how she thinks about strategy and sustainability in mining.

Now a principal at Kinterra Capital, Ober applies that broad, cross-disciplinary lens to investment decisions, emphasizing the importance of digital fluency, stakeholder alignment and long-term viability.

Her experience helps her identify operational bottlenecks and social license challenges early — essential in guiding assets like nickel and copper projects from concept to production.

Chris Berry: The West Must Invest in Refinement Now or Fall Further Behind

China’s grip on the battery metals sector has drawn increasing scrutiny in recent years as nations confront growing concerns around supply chain risk and resource security.

Through a blend of domestic output and aggressive overseas investment, particularly in Africa and South America, Chinese companies now command a significant share of upstream supply.

The country is responsible for roughly 60 percent of global rare earths production and controls over 70 percent of cobalt supply through its stakes in mines across the Democratic Republic of Congo.
