Galan Lithium Limited announced a maiden drilling program at the newly defined Fry's Block located within its 100% owned Greenbushes South Lithium Project. Diamond drilling is scheduled to commence in late January 2023, pending receipt of program of works approvals. The Greenbushes South Lithium Project (the Project) is located 250 km south of Perth, in Western Australia and covers an area of approximately 315 km2.

The Project tenements are located along the trace of the Donnybrook-Bridgetown Shear Zone geologic structure, which hosts the lithium- bearing pegmatites at the Greenbushes Lithium Mine (Greenbushes). The maiden drill campaign is designed to test delineated pegmatites hosted within the Donnybrook-Bridgetown Shear Zone structure. Greenbushes is currently the large hard-rock lithium mine in the world and has been in production since 1983.

It is operated by Talison Lithium Pty Ltd, a private company now owned by joint venture partners Tianqi Lithium Corporation /IGO Limited JV (51%) and Albemarle Corporation (49%). The five-hole diamond drilling program has been developed to test three interpreted pegmatite targets at the Fry's Block Prospect on E70/4790. The shallow-angled drilling program follows recent successful fieldwork campaigns, including highly encouraging geophysics and soil sampling results.

Located approximately 3 km from the operational Greenbushes mine, the potential pegmatite targets at Fry's Block are thought to be part of a more extensive, interfingering geologic system. Diamond drilling has been selected to capture the sample and geometry of the pegmatites, details of their magmatic histories as well as any potential irregularities in grade distribution. Exploration within E70/4790 tenement is ongoing, with additional ground geophysics planned as a follow-up to historical and pending soil transects to aid in the identification of blind pegmatites at depth.
