Phase II Soil Sampling Programme Successfully Completed

14,116 samples sent to Ghana for pXRF and LIBS analysis

Firering Strategic Minerals plc, an exploration company focusing on critical minerals, is pleased to announce the successful completion of its large-scale Phase II Soil Sampling Programme at its flagship Atex Lithium-Tantalum Project ("Atex"), in Côte d'Ivoire. The Phase II Programme was undertaken in conjunction with Ricca Resources Limited ("Ricca") following its US$18.6 million investment to advance Atex to Definitive Feasibility Study ("DFS") announced on 2^nd November 2022.

Highlights:

· Soil sampling programme completed; 14,116 soil samples taken, prepared and sent to Ghana for analysis by portable x-ray fluorescence spectrometry ("pXRF") and Laser Induced Breakdown Spectrometry ("LIBS");

· Results for batches 1 to 7 and part of batch 8 (a total of 6,205 samples) received and plotted;

· Several new and related pegmatite anomalies identified in the Atex licence area confirming areas of interest for auger drilling;

· Final soil analysis and mapping to be concluded in the coming weeks to fine tune the auger drilling programme;

· Coremet submitted its first draft report for the coltan test work concluding good response to magnetic separation and gravity concentration.

Yuval Cohen, Chief Executive of Firering, said:

"I am very pleased to announce that, after partnering with Ricca, we now have successfully completed our Phase II soil sampling programme, which commenced on 09 January 2023. A total of 14,116 soil samples were taken, prepared and sent to Ghana for pXRF and LIBS analysis. It is very encouraging that several pegmatite related anomalies have been identified, which will be considered as target in the next phase of auger drilling which will commence shortly.

"I am also pleased to announce that Cormet completed the coltan test work and submitted its draft report on 15 May 2023. Coremet's test work indicated that the material can be concentrated and resulted in an initial flowsheet for a gravity plant."

Soil Sampling

Phase II of the Atex soil sampling programme commenced on 9 January 2023 and was completed on 11 May 2023. A total of 14,116 soil samples were taken, prepared and sent to Ghana for pXRF and LIBS analysis (see Map 1 below). The results received have been interpreted and plotted for batches 1 to 7 and part of batch 8 (see Map 2 below). A further 7,911 results are pending, representing the remaining part of batch 8 and batches 9 to 11.

Map 2: Atex licence area, showing the lithium results from the LIBS analysis for batches 1 to 7 and part of batch 8; pXRF results for this area have also been received.

Coremet Test Work

High level test work undertaken by SGS/Coremet in Johannesburg, South Africa showed that:

· The mineralogical analysis of the material indicated that all the tantalum and niobium is contained in Columbite;

· The overwhelming majority of tantalum and niobium occurs in highly liberated Columbite particles; and

· The material responded well to magnetic separation and gravity concentration.

Although further test work is required to produce a commercial concentrate, Coremet was able to develop an initial flow sheet for a gravity plant that needs to be tested to validate recovery values. Further exploration is also needed to assess the economic potential of the coltan mineralisation within the licence area.

Notes to Editors:

Firering Strategic Minerals

Firering Strategic Minerals plc is an AIM-quoted mining company focused on exploring and developing a portfolio of mines producing critical minerals in the Côte d'Ivoire including lithium and Tantalum to support the global transition to net zero emissions. It operates the Atex Lithium-Tantalum Project in northern Côte d'Ivoire, which is prospective for both lithium and tantalum. Firering intends to advance development at Atex with a view to establishing a maiden lithium resource and a pilot scale production of ethically sourced tantalum and niobium within 18 months to generate early revenues and support further exploration work. A large-scale Tantalum production facility may be developed following pilot results, which will be supported by a debt facility of FCFA 5,057,000,000 (approximately €7,500,000) currently under negotiation to fund the entire scale-up plan to develop a portfolio of ethically sourced mineral projects in the Côte d'Ivoire, supplying EV batteries, high tech electronics and other fast-growing end markets.

Glossary of Technical Terms

Coltan/columbite		Coltan (short for columbite-tantalite and known industrially as tantalite) is a dull black metallic mineral/mineral concentrate from which the elements niobium and tantalum are extracted for use various heat and corrosion resistant alloys and capacitors. Tantalite and columbite form a solid solution series of minerals ranging from Ta₂O₅ (Tantalite) to columbite (Nb₂O₅) endmembers with a range of intermediary compositions (Ta,Nb)₂O₅.
Lepidolite	Lepidolite is a purple to lilac-grey or rose-coloured member of the mica group of minerals. It has chemical formula K(Li,Al)₃(Al, Si)₄O₁₀(F,OH)₂. It is part of the polylithionite, lepidolite, and trilithionite group of minerals, which share similar properties but have varying ratios of lithium and aluminium in their chemical formulas and a potential secondary source of lithium.
Li	Lithium.
Li₂O	Lithium Oxide (Lithia) - an inorganic lithium compound used to assess lithium minerals. Relationship between Li and Li₂O: Li₂O = Li x 2.153
LIBS	Laser Induced Breakdown Spectrometry. Handheld LIBS analysers use a high-focused laser to ablate the surface of a sample. A plasma is formed consisting of electronically excited atoms and ions. As these atoms decay back into their ground states, they emit characteristic wavelengths of light, or "unique fingerprints". These "fingerprints" or spectra are distinct for each element. Handheld LIBS analysis can be used for quantitative and qualitative measurements including lithium.
Metasediments	Sedimentary rocks that have been metamorphosed.
Metavolcanics	Volcanic rocks that have been metamorphosed.
Pegmatite/LCT pegmatite	An igneous rock typically of granitic composition, which is distinguished from other igneous rocks by the extremely coarse size of its crystals, or by an abundance of crystals with skeletal, graphic, or other strongly directional growth habits, or by a prominent spatial zonation of mineral assemblages. LCT pegmatites are pegmatites enriched in lithium, caesium and tantalite and an important source of lithium.
pXRF	Portable X-ray Fluorescence handheld device that uses X-rays to excite matter at the atomic level for determining approximate chemical compositions. A built in CPU and display on the back of the unit provide live geochemical results within seconds.
QA/QC	Quality assurance and quality control. Use to assess the accuracy and reliability of assay results.
Spodumene	Spodumene is a pyroxene group mineral with a chemical formula of LiAlSi₂O₆. Spodumene is mined from pegmatites and concentrates produced which are the one of the primary sources of lithium.
Ta	Tantalum.
XRD	X-ray Diffraction or X-ray Powder Diffraction utilizes x-ray radiation on crystalline organic and inorganic samples. The rays are diffracted in a pattern determined by the position, arrangement, and size of the constituents of the crystal.

Section 2 Reporting of Exploration Results

(Criteria listed in the previous section also apply to this section.)

Criteria	JORC Code explanation	Commentary
Mineral tenement and land tenure status	· Type, reference name/number, location and ownership including agreements or material issues with third parties such as joint ventures, partnerships, overriding royalties, native title interests, historical sites, wilderness or national park and environmental settings. · The security of the tenure held at the time of reporting along with any known impediments to obtaining a licence to operate in the area.	· The Atex exploration permit was issued as PR-777 on 6 December 2017 to Atex Mining Resources and was valid for 4 years, expiring in December 2021. In March 2021, Firering Holdings acquired 51% of Atex Mining and has an option to acquire an additional 39%. · PR-777 has been renewed for an additional three years for Li, expiring on 5 December 2024. The Mining Code of Ivory Coast allows for the adding of other commodities, e.g. Ta and Au when found during exploration activities.
Exploration done by other parties	· Acknowledgment and appraisal of exploration by other parties.	· Within PR-777 limited exploration work comprising geological mapping and prospecting focussed on the eluvial, alluvial and pegmatite hosted columbo-tantalite mineralisation was done between 1953 and 1963. This work identified the area to have "good" potential for columbo-tantalite mineralisation as well some evidence of placer gold mineralisation around Tounvré. · Adam (1966) conducted the systematic exploration in the area on behalf of SODEMI from 1965-1966. His work comprised non-systematic and systematic pitting, mapping, rock chip and mineral concentrate sampling. The work identified several areas with potentially economic columbo-tantalite mineralisation as well as the spodumene-lepidolite bearing pegmatite(s) around Spodumene Hill. His mapping also recognised 5 types of pegmatites in the area, namely: · lepidolite, muscovite, spodumene, columbo-tantalite type; · green muscovite, columbo-tantalite type; · green muscovite and beryl type; · muscovite, beryl type; and · biotite, magnetite type. · More recently, the permit was covered by a larger licence held by Perseus Mining Limited who were exploring for gold within the region. The results of this exploration are unknown. · It is understood that they conducted airborne geophysical (magnetic and radiometric) surveys over the area. · The most recent exploration conducted has been by Atex Mining Resources who conducted limited mapping and rock chip sampling focussed on the lithium potential of the licence and confirmed the presence of spodumene and lepidolite mineralisation in the area around Spodumene Hill.
Geology	· Deposit type, geological setting and style of mineralisation.	· The Atex Project occurs in the western limit of the Bagoé Basin within Baoulé-Mossi domain of the West African Craton (WAC). The WAC comprises Archaean basement material and the surrounding Proterozoic granite-greenstone terranes (termed the Birimian or Birimian Supergroup). The Birimian rocks are synchronous with the Eburnean orogeny. The Baoulé-Mossi domain comprises several north-northeast to south-southwest to north-south arcuate belts that stretch hundreds of kilometres and are host to multiple gold, base metal, and pegmatite-hosted columbo-tantalite and lithium deposits that are spatially and temporally related to the Eburnean orogeny that took place between 2,250 and 1,980 Ma. · The geology of the Project area us underlain by Birimian metavolcanics and Eburnian-aged granitoid intrusions, including undeformed, late stage potassic granites considered to be genetically related to the pegmatites. · Historical work within the permit area has identified several pegmatite types within the licence area, including pegmatites, which are prospective for lithium and columbo-tantalite mineralisation. The exploration work by Adam (1966) also identified surficial columbo-tantalite mineralisation associated with the pegmatites and weathering thereof. · Recently, several companies have demonstrated the potential for pegmatite-hosted lithium mineralisation in the region. These include Atlantic Lithium (previously IronRidge Resources) who have developed the Ewoyaa Lithium Project in Ghana, Firefinch (previously Mali Lithium) and their Goulamina project and Kodal Minerals with their Bougouni project both in southern Mali. · The pegmatites within the Atex permit belong to the LCT-Rare Element group of pegmatites and includes the LCT spodumene-lepidolite bearing pegmatite at Spodumene Hill and muscovite-columbo-tantalite type pegmatites. · The pegmatites within the Atex Proiect are hosted in mafic schists, although some minor mica schists are also present and comprise a series of steeply dipping north-northeast striking bodies. Less common are smaller east west orientated pegmatites. · Recent work by Firering Strategic Minerals has identified several pegmatite bodies around Spodumene Hill and have been the focus of the 2022 drilling campaign. Several other pegmatites were also identified within the broader ATEX project area indicating the licence may be hosted to additional LCT pegmatites. The licence scale soil sampling programme was designed to identify potential targets associated with the known pegmatites and other potentially sub-cropping pegmatite zones. · Several of these pegmatites at Spodumene Hill have been identified to be potentially lithium bearing, with the lithium hosted in spodumene and lepidolite. · The area is also considered moderately prospective for orogenic Birimian gold mineralisation based on the local geology and proximity to several gold deposits in the broader region. Historical exploration in the 1960s also noted a small "placer" gold deposit close to Tounvré.
Drill hole Information	· A summary of all information material to the understanding of the exploration results including a tabulation of the following information for all Material drill holes: o easting and northing of the drill hole collar o elevation or RL (Reduced Level - elevation above sea level in metres) of the drill hole collar o dip and azimuth of the hole o down hole length and interception depth o hole length. · If the exclusion of this information is justified on the basis that the information is not Material and this exclusion does not detract from the understanding of the report, the Competent Person should clearly explain why this is the case.	· All relevant maps showing the sample locations and lithium results have been included in the announcement. · Only lithium results have been reported as this data best summarises and highlights the potential target areas identified.
Data aggregation methods	· In reporting Exploration Results, weighting averaging techniques, maximum and/or minimum grade truncations (e.g. cutting of high grades) and cut-off grades are usually Material and should be stated. · Where aggregate intercepts incorporate short lengths of high grade results and longer lengths of low grade results, the procedure used for such aggregation should be stated and some typical examples of such aggregations should be shown in detail. · The assumptions used for any reporting of metal equivalent values should be clearly stated.	· No equivalent values are used or reported. · No data aggregation or metal equivalents have been reported.
Relationship between mineralisation widths and intercept lengths	· These relationships are particularly important in the reporting of Exploration Results. · If the geometry of the mineralisation with respect to the drill hole angle is known, its nature should be reported. · If it is not known and only the down hole lengths are reported, there should be a clear statement to this effect (e.g. 'down hole length, true width not known').	· There are no relationship between the lithium results in the soil samples and possible pegmatite hosted lithium mineralisation. · No relationship has been established with respect to the target sizes and the size of potential pegmatite hosted lithium mineralisation. · Follow-up exploration work is required to test the targets identified and establish whether the targets are associated with mineralised pegmatites.
Diagrams	· Appropriate maps and sections (with scales) and tabulations of intercepts should be included for any significant discovery being reported These should include, but not be limited to a plan view of drill hole collar locations and appropriate sectional views.	· Relevant maps are presented in the accompanying documentation.
Balanced reporting	· Where comprehensive reporting of all Exploration Results is not practicable, representative reporting of both low and high grades and/or widths should be practiced to avoid misleading reporting of Exploration Results.	· The reported exploration results are related to the regional soil sampling results for batches 1-7 and part of batch 8 from the Atex project conducted by Ricca Resources.
Other substantive exploration data	· Other exploration data, if meaningful and material, should be reported including (but not limited to): geological observations; geophysical survey results; geochemical survey results; bulk samples - size and method of treatment; metallurgical test results; bulk density, groundwater, geotechnical and rock characteristics; potential deleterious or contaminating substances.	· No applicable.
Further work	· The nature and scale of planned further work (e.g. tests for lateral extensions or depth extensions or large-scale step-out drilling). · Diagrams clearly highlighting the areas of possible extensions, including the main geological interpretations and future drilling areas, provided this information is not commercially sensitive.	· Additional exploration is planned and summarised in the accompanying documentation.
