Comprising seven distinct projects, the 653km² tenements include land packages located along strike from high-grade lithium deposits and established spodumene-producing lithium mines.

The seven projects include the Buningonia, Buningonia North, Myuna Rocks and Ten Mile West projects.

St George Mining executive chairman John Prineas said: “The acquisition of these projects – through our wholly owned subsidiary, Lithium Star – is in line with our strategy to build a high-quality portfolio of lithium assets in Tier 1 jurisdictions like Western Australia.

“Five of the new projects are located in the southern portion of the Yilgarn Craton, an area gaining a global reputation as a ‘super province’ for lithium with three spodumene-producing mines and five others in development.
