(TSXV: GBML) (OTCQB: REZZF) (FSE: REZ) (the \"Company\" or \"GBML\" or \"Global Battery Metals\"), an international critical mineral exploration company focused on growth-oriented lithium and battery metal projects, is pleased to announce it has completed the recent shallow trench sampling program at its Knockeen lithium pegmatite project located on GBML's Leinster Lithium Project in Ireland.Highlights:A cross-cut trench of approximately 25m in total length was successfully opened up at 1-2m depth to confirm a historically reported 1.8m wide spodumene bearing pegmatite dike.Samples collected at 1m intervals along the exposed strike length of the dike were submitted for expedited lab testing with results delivery anticipated mid-December. Rock and soil assay results will be used for 2024 exploration planning of the prospect and at several other target areas on the licence property. Michael Murphy, CEO of Global Battery Metals, said: \"We're moving fast to see these assays. The team is pleased to confirm the historic dike target location and complete initial surface trench sampling before year end. At only two metres deep, these trenching sample assays are important as they'll give us a clear view into the near surface lithium mineralization opportunity that we believe exists. We are preparing now for our next exploration steps at Knockeen and surrounding areas, and believe that we'll see an active and busy lithium discovery district take shape early in 2024.\" Image 1: Knockeen Lithium Pegmatite Shallow Trench GBML successfully intersects its target.
