• Maiden drill program targeting Spring 2023 start.
Drilling permit has been granted. Drilling will test for:
stratigraphy, brine composition and production metrics.
• Exploration mud rotatory drilling with wireline geophysics
to evaluate the stratigraphy and basement depth for the
Property area.
• Water sampling of drill holes using in-hole packer
equipment to test for lithium enrichment and deleterious
element content of the brine.
• Further geophysical data acquisition will be conducted by a
combination of gravity and EM data acquisition
• Once drilling has been completed and assay
results are returned, GBML intends to produce a
43-101 compliant mineral resource estimate.
• GBML will explore Direct Lithium Extraction
(DLE) technology partners for low-cost and
sustainable processing
Direct Lithium Extraction (DLE)
Lithium is a highly reactive alkali metal that offers excellent heat and electrical conductivity, which makes it ideal for several uses such as EV and energy storage. However, because of its high reactivity, pure elemental lithium is not found in nature but is instead present as a constituent of salts or other compounds such as spodumeme (chemical formula: LiAlSi2O6).
Currently, there are only two commercial lithium production sources, spodumene in hard rocks and naturally occurring lithium-containing brine.
Direct Lithium Extraction (DLE) is a proven technology, with established producing projects based on DLE in China and South America. The technology allows the extraction of lithium from the brine producing high purity lithium chloride, without the need for evaporation, resulting in no depletion from the aquifer or harm to the local environment. DLE technology also offers higher recoveries and purities than other forms of lithium extraction.
DLE technology consists of several chemical processes that allow for fast isolated lithium production into saleable forms of lithium. This can be done via three main methods:
Adsorption: using sorbents to physically adhere to the lithium for selective removal. After the sorbent is loaded with the lithium chloride, it’s washed with a diluted lithium chloride stream to remove unwanted ions, and then washed a second time to unload the lithium chloride. The latest sorbent being tested is a lithium aluminum layered double hydroxide chloride sorbent, or LDH. As described in a recent study published by Environmental Science & Technology, this method doesn't require an acid wash or other chemicals, which ultimately makes it more friendly.
Ion Exchange: These systems separate ionic contaminants from solution through a physicochemical process where undesirable ions are replaced by other ions of the same electrical charge. Lithium recovery by ion exchange can change with a simple adjustment in pH, temperature, or stream composition (and the same goes for other lithium extraction methods), but researchers also believe this method can recover roughly 90% of the lithium present.
Solvent extraction: this process involves capturing lithium either chemically or physically and transforming it into Lithium Chloride.

Global Battery Metals also has a lithium property in La Poile, Newfoundland. Exploration and drilling is scheduled to begin in 2024.
The company also has a copper property in Peru which is optioned out to a mining producer for $5.7 million.
