The Directors present the March 2025 Quarterly Activities
Report for Fulcrum Lithium (Fulcrum or the Company) and its
controlled entities (the Group).
OPERATIONS
Nevada Lithium Projects (100% owned)
The Company owns a 100% interest in the following lithium exploration projects located on
Federal public lands owned and administered by the United States government:
•
•
•
the Alkali Flats lithium project comprising 2,276 lode claims (approximately 190 km2);
the Fairway lithium project comprising 327 lode claims (approximately 27 km2); and
the Summit lithium project comprising 160 lode claims (approximately 13 km2).
The lode claims include rights to all locatable subsurface minerals.

ALKALI FLATS
During the quarter, the Company completed the Alkali Flats Phase One drill program.
The drilling program, comprising 14 RC drill holes averaging 171m depth on a grid spacing
of approximately 800 metres, was designed to test the Siebert Formation; the regional
claystone host for lithium (Li) deposits and in a location where Fulcrum’s initial surface
sampling results returned lithium concentrations up to 797 ppm Li (Figure 2).
The Alkali Flats Phase 1 drilling program commenced on 10 December 2024, drilling the
first 8 holes before pausing operations on 23 December 2024. Drilling re-commenced on 7
January 2025, completing the final 6 holes before de-mobilising operations on 21 January
2025.
2
All 14 holes intersected the Seibert Formation at shallow depths, on average at 6m depth
with a maximum alluvial overburden of 14m being intercepted. Drilling shows that the
Seibert Formation geology comprises an interbedded mixture of claystones, volcanic tuffs,
tuffaceous volcaniclastic sands and gravels. A weathered and fresh basalt flow was
commonly intersected in a number of holes which correlates to the Mira Basalt which is
known to be present locally in the Seibert Formation.
The thickness of claystones intersected in the Seibert Formation in the 14 holes ranges from
0m to 71.1m, averaging 26.7m and correlated in a lower and an upper zone (Figure 3).
During the quarter, a total of 6 drill holes of the 14 holes (AFRC-9 to AFRC-14) planned at
the Alkali Flats project were completed for a total of approximately 1,442.1 metres. Table 1
is a list of the drill holes completed and their coordinates using NAD 83 Zone 11 datum.

Geological Mapping Program
On completion of the Phase 1 drilling program, a team of Fulcrum geologists were mobilised
to site in February 2025 to commence a comprehensive geological mapping and sampling
program across the full 230km2 of claims holdings of the Alkali Flats, Fairway and Summit
projects.
Fulcrum’s geologists collected 95 samples from exposed outcrops and shallow auger holes
of which 26 samples contained assay values above 300 ppm Li.
Geological sampling at Alkali Flats has returned assay results up to 817 ppm Li (Figure 4)
which is the highest grade assay result from surface samples that Fulcrum has collected at
Alkali Flats to date.
Sedimentary and hydrothermal features as well as structural trends were mapped to build a
basin model and define the upcoming phase 2 drill program.
5
Phase Two Drill Campaign
Analysis of results from the Alkali Flats Phase 1 drilling program encouragingly confirmed
the presence of a working claystone-hosted lithium mineralisation system. The lithologies
and claystone thicknesses intersected in the Phase 1 drilling program indicate that the
south-east corner of the Alkali Flats claims is not the optimal basin setting for expanded
thickness of lithium-bearing claystones. Fulcrum’s basin analysis, including the Phase 1
drilling data, new surface outcrop mapping and interpretation of publicly available
geophysical data (e.g. USGS gravity data) has directed exploration focus towards the
northern and western areas of the basin (Figure 4). Siebert Formation claystones host in
excess of 60 million tonnes of reported lithium carbonate equivalent resources at several
deposits in nearby third-party projects.
Permitting work for the drill program has commenced, while final drill hole locations are
currently being sited for the two drilling programs, with a targeted time for commencing
drilling in May 2025.

FAIRWAY PROJECT
The Fairway project comprises 327 lode claims, an area of 27 km2 located in the Fish Lake
Valley, Nevada, USA (Figure 1).
On completion of the Alkali Flats Phase 1 drilling program, a team of Fulcrum geologists
were mobilised to site in February 2025 to commence a sampling program across the
Fairway project. Geological sampling returned assay results up to 1,084 ppm Li at Fairway
(Figure 5) which is the highest grade assay result from surface samples that Fulcrum has
collected across all of Fulcrum’s projects to date.
Maiden Drill Campaign
Following on from the encouraging geological mapping and sampling campaign, a maiden
drill program is being planned at the Fairway project. Permitting work has commenced,
while final drill hole locations are currently being sited for the two drilling programs, with a
targeted time for commencing drilling in May 2025.

SUMMIT PROJECT
The Summit project comprises 160 lode claims, an area of 13 km2, located in the Lida Valley,
Nevada, USA (Figure 1).
On completion of the Alkali Flats Phase 1 drilling program, a team of Fulcrum geologists
were mobilised to site in February 2025 to commence a comprehensive geological mapping
and sampling program across the Summit project. Twenty six samples were collected all
returning assay results less than 175 ppm Li indicating no significant lithium mineralisation
in the outcrops sampled (Figure 6).

Commentary
Sampling
techniques
•
Nature and quality of sampling (eg cut
channels, random chips, or specific specialised industry
standard measurement tools appropriate to the
minerals under investigation, such as down hole gamma
sondes, or handheld XRF instruments, etc). These
examples should not be taken as limiting the broad
meaning of sampling.
•
Include reference to measures taken to
ensure sample representivity and the appropriate
calibration of any measurement tools or systems used.
•
Aspects of the determination of
mineralisation that are Material to the Public Report.
•
In cases where ‘industry standard’ work has
been done this would be relatively simple (eg ‘reverse
circulation drilling was used to obtain 1 m samples from
which 3 kg was pulverised to produce a 30 g charge for
fire assay’). In other cases more explanation may be
required, such as where there is coarse gold that has
inherent sampling problems. Unusual commodities or
mineralisation types (eg submarine nodules) may
warrant disclosure of detailed information.
•
Drill type (eg core, reverse circulation, openhole hammer, rotary air blast, auger, Bangka, sonic, etc)
and details (eg core diameter, triple or standard tube,
depth of diamond tails, face-sampling bit or other type,
whether core is oriented and if so, by what method, etc).
•
Method of recording and assessing core and
chip sample recoveries and results assessed.
•
Measures taken to maximise sample
recovery and ensure representative nature of the
samples.
•
Whether a relationship exists between
sample recovery and grade and whether sample bias
may have occurred due to preferential loss/gain of
fine/coarse material.
•
Whether core and chip samples have been
geologically and geotechnically logged to a level of
detail to support appropriate Mineral Resource
estimation, mining studies and metallurgical studies.
•
Whether logging is qualitative or
quantitative in nature. Core (or costean, channel, etc)
photography.
•
The total length and percentage of the
relevant intersections logged.
•
If core, whether cut or sawn and whether
quarter, half or all core taken.
•
If non-core, whether riffled, tube sampled,
rotary split, etc and whether sampled wet or dry.
•
For all sample types, the nature, quality and
appropriateness of the sample preparation technique.
•
Quality control procedures adopted for all
sub-sampling stages to maximise representivity of
samples.
•
Measures taken to ensure that the sampling
is representative of the in situ material collected,
including for instance results for field duplicate/secondhalf sampling.
•
Whether sample sizes are appropriate to the
grain size of the material being sampled.
The RC drill cuttings samples were acquired every five feet
(1.524 meters) collected from fluid and cuttings passed through
a cyclone sample collector. Buckets were lined with pre-labelled
bags. Sample bags and chip trays were pre-labelled for field
staff. A Fulcrum geologist collected the samples or trained the
rig sampler in methods. Field personnel monitored the drilled
depth, and drilling was briefly paused at the end of each sample
run to circulate the cuttings to surface. Each sample interval was
logged at the rig by the supervising geologist. Samples were
stored at the drill sites until pickup.

Surface Samples
Surface rock samples were collected from exposures in arroyos
or small drainages where natural erosion exposed outcrops or
along road cuts.
Samples were collected and recorded with the dimensions of
the length of the sample and depth of the sample below the
surface. Samples were all documented with photographs of the
sample site. GPS coordinates in NAD 83 Zone 11 Datum were
recorded at each site by the geologist.
Reverse circulation (RC) drilling. The RC drilling was performed
by a 1500MPD track rig with a 5 3/4" (14.61 cm) hammer drill
bit.
•
Drill cuttings samples were collected every five feet
in a cloth bag inside a 5-gallon bucket from fluid and cuttings
passed through a cyclone sample collector.
•
Cuttings samples were qualitatively logged and
photographed by drilllsite geologists.
Drill cuttings samples were initially collected wet and
subsequently partially dried out under natural conditions onsite. QA/QC samples (blanks, standards, field duplicates) were
submitted to monitor laboratory performance. Sample size is
appropriate for the planned analyses.

Commentary
•
The nature, quality and appropriateness of
the assaying and laboratory procedures used and
whether the technique is considered partial or total.
•
For geophysical tools, spectrometers,
handheld XRF instruments, etc, the parameters used in
determining the analysis including instrument make and
model, reading times, calibrations factors applied and
their derivation, etc.
•
Nature of quality control procedures adopted
(eg standards, blanks, duplicates, external laboratory
checks) and whether acceptable levels of accuracy (ie
lack of bias) and precision have been established.
Samples were analyzed by American Assays Laboratories Inc. of
Sparks, Nevada by method 4AB DIGESTION: IO-4AB12 which is
an ICP-MS method employing a 4 acid + boric acid digestion.
Assay quality was monitored using pulp blanks, as well as
certified reference materials (CRMs). CRM’s were purchased
from Shea Clark Smith/MEG, Inc. The “MEG” standards are
produced form Esmeralda County claystones. CRM’s are
submitted by the site geologist at a rate of 1 in 40 samples. Pulp
blank results indicated no material contamination of samples
from sample preparation or during the analytical process. CRM
results were within 3 standard deviations of certified values. No
systematic bias nor other accuracy related issues were
identified.
Fulcrum’s QAQC procedure in addition to submitting CRM’s,
Blanks were submitted at a rate of 1 in 40 samples. Duplicate
splits were also submitted also at a rate of 1 in 40 samples.

grade continuity appropriate for the Mineral Resource
and Ore Reserve estimation procedure(s) and
classifications applied.
•
Whether sample compositing has been
applied.
•
Whether the orientation of sampling
achieves unbiased sampling of possible structures and
the extent to which this is known, considering the
deposit type.
•
If the relationship between the drilling
orientation and the orientation of key mineralised
structures is considered to have introduced a sampling
bias, this should be assessed and reported if material.

Sample intervals were assigned a unique sample identification
number prior to sample dispatch.
•
Lithium-mineralised claystone Certified Reference
Materials (standards), duplicates and blanks were inserted into
the sample stream at regular intervals to monitor lab accuracy
and potential contamination during sample prep and analytical
processes.
•
Fulcrum geologists used handheld Garmin GPS units to record
sample location sites and as QC. Fulcrum geologists have
recorded the sample sites using NAD 83 Zone 11 datum.
Location of data points is considered to be at acceptable levels
of accuracy and precision.
•
Drill holes were spaced approximately 800m apart on
average, ranging from 650m to 1600m. The spacing is
considered adequate for this stage of exploration given the flat
to moderately dipping sedimentary layers.
•
Drill holes were drilled vertical achieving unbiased
sampling of the underlying structure. The stratigraphy
comprises flat, bedded, mostly sedimentary layers.
RC samples remained in the custody of Fulcrum onsite at the
drill rig until collected by American Assay Laboratory personnel
and transported securely to their laboratory. Samples were
accompanied by submittal sheets. No security issues are
suspected.
•
No audits or reviews of the data management system
have been carried out.

•
The Fulcrum Projects are in areas favourable for
claystone hosted lithium deposits. Project areas were selected
based on the presence of favourable host lithologies within
hydrogeological closed basins that also exhibited high geothermal
activity. Fulcrum’s Projects are geologically similar to other nearby
lithium projects in the Tonopah area with advanced exploration
programs. Several of those projects are currently being investigated
at various exploration or development stages all based primarily on
the United States Geological Survey (USGS) lithium depositional
model as presented by Asher-Bolinder (1991) in which three
diagenetic models are proposed for formation of enriched lithium
clays in closed basins:
•
Alteration of volcanic glass to lithium-rich smectite.
•
Precipitation from lacustrine waters.
•
Incorporation of lithium into existing smectites.
•
A total of 14 holes planned at the Alkali Flats project
were completed for a total of approximately 2,367 metres.

All holes were drilled vertically and drill hole coordinates
and the depth of each hole are detailed in the report above.

Commentary
•
In reporting Exploration Results, weighting
averaging techniques, maximum and/or minimum grade
truncations (eg 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.
•
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 (eg ‘down hole length, true width not
known’).
•
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.
•
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.
•
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.
•
The nature and scale of planned further work
(eg 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

Intersections, where quoted are weighted by length.
A 300 ppm Li cut-off was used to quote headline intersections, with
allowance for 5ft of internal dilution by lower grade material.
Spot grades also quoted for single drill sample intervals of the
highest values within quoted zones.
•
The Seibert formation is generally flat ( <5 degrees) in
the drilled target. All holes are vertical, therefore all reported
mineralization widths will be very similar to the interception lengths
quoted and the difference will be negligible.
•
Appropriate diagrams are included in the ASX
announcement.
•
The intersection lengths of zones over the 300 ppm Li
cut-off was published for all holes in the 14 hole drill program.
•
All new surface samples have been represented in diagrams.
•
N/A – no other material exploration data was gathered in
this period.
•
Phase 2 of the Alkali Flats drill program and the maiden
drilling program for Fairway is planned to commence in Q2 2025 as
described in the ASX announcement.
