Completion of Spatial Planning Procedure

 

Zinnwald Lithium plc, the European focused lithium company, is pleased to
announce that the spatial impact assessment (the "Assessment") for its
proposed lithium mining and processing project (the 'Project') in Germany has
been completed.

 

The Saxony State Directorate has issued its Assessment to the Company and the
Saxon Mining Authority within the prescribed timeframe. The Assessment
concludes that the development concept set out in the Company's
Pre-Feasibility Study ("PFS"), including processing at Liebenau and ore
transport via a conveyor tunnel, represents the most favourable option for
large-scale development, and confirms the spatial compatibility of the
Project. As expected for a project of this nature, the report identifies
several matters to be addressed through the Project's Environmental Impact
Assessment and at the permitting stage, which the Company will review as the
Project progresses.

 

The Company notes that the Assessment does not constitute a development
approval. It precedes the formal approval process under Saxon State mining law
and provides the framework for further planning. The next stage of the Project
will be progressed through the mining permitting process led by the Saxon
Mining Authority.

 

Anton du Plessis, CEO of Zinnwald Lithium, commented: "The completion of the
spatial planning process marks another important step forward for our
integrated lithium hydroxide project in Germany. The findings support the
development concept outlined in our PFS and provide a clear basis to progress
into the next stages of environmental assessment and permitting."
