[{"type":"text","content":"\n\n \n14 August 2023\n \nTechnology Minerals Plc \n \n(\"Technology Minerals\" or the \"Company\") \n \nLithium Pegmatite Dike Swarm Drilled at the Leinster Lithium Project in Ireland\n \nTechnology Minerals Plc (LSE: TM1), the first listed UK company focused on creating a sustainable circular economy for battery metals, is pleased to announce that Global Battery Metals Ltd (\"GBML\"), (TSXV: GBML; OTCQB: REZZF; Frankfurt: REZ), has provided an update on the ongoing drilling campaign at the Knockeen prospect (PLA 1597) on our North Leinster lithium project in Ireland. The project is progressing under an ongoing and successful option agreement between GBML and Technology Minerals which is being operated by GBML.\n \nKey Highlights:\n \n· Drilling confirms Lithium-Cesium-Tantalum (LCT) pegmatite dike swarm at Knockeen Prospect.\n· Phase 1 drill holes (DDH-23-1597-01 - DDH-23-1597-04) completed for a total of 656m. Visual analysis of core suggests intervals of lithium mineralisation among pegmatite intersections from all four drill holes sent to ALS Laboratories for assaying.\n· Drilling of Hole Five (DDH-23-1597-05) is currently underway, with GBML announcing its intent to pursue drilling at all 10 permitted drill sites for a total of approximately 2,000m.\n· Sustainability consultant and critical raw materials policy expert to the European Commission's Directorate-General for Research & Innovation, Niall McManus, has been engaged to help steward public interaction programme development and stakeholder relations.\n· Commencement of 'district scale' expanded exploration and prospecting activity across Northern Block licenses at key primary target areas, including Aghavannagh, Sorrel, Tonygarrow, Scurlocks and Knocknaboley.\nDrilling Confirms LCT Pegmatite Swarm at Knockeen Prospect \n \nGBML has completed four drill holes (DDH-23-1597-01 - DDH-23-1597-04) for a total of 656m, with drilling now underway at DDH-23-1597-05. Further to the GBML's 7 June, 2023 Program Update, several drilling adjustments have been applied based on the measured pegmatite dike geometries and orientations which were intersected in the first hole. GBML has succeeded in intersecting multiple dikes within...
