United Lithium Corp. announced drill crews have mobilized to the Bergby Lithium Project (“Bergby” or the “Project”) to commence a 4,000 metre (“m”) diamond drill program. Bergby is a 100% owned district-scale hard rock lithium project covering 10,828 hectares (“ha”) near the coast of the Gulf of Bothnia in Central Sweden.

The Project is characterized by the presence of LCT (lithium-caesium-tantalum) enriched-type granitic pegmatites. 4,000 m diamond drill program spread over 50 holes Further drill testing known lithium-bearing pegmatites that remain open along strike and/or at depth Drill test other spodumene outcrops that have been identified on the Project Additional mapping and sampling to identify more potential outcrops. The diamond drill program comprises a proposed 4,000 m spread over approximately 50 holes that will be completed by Ludvika BorrTeknik AB, of Sweden.

The program design incorporates the findings from previous exploration activities and has two main objectives. Firstly, to further define known lithium-bearing pegmatites through drilling along strike, testing for potential parallel zones and down dip mineralization. Secondly, several lithium-bearing outcrops have yet to be drill tested and are primary targets to potentially expand known mineralization.

The program is expected to conclude by the end of July 2023. Assay results will be announced once received and reviewed. To date 11,000 m of drilling in 130 holes have been completed at the Project with assay results pending for approximately 60 holes.
