en.Wedoany.com Reported - CTL's Phase 3 drilling program, conducted from September 2025 to January 2026, achieved significant results in the Tregonning South extension area, confirming a new lithium-bearing fine-grained granite-pegmatite sequence and simultaneously intercepting an extensive new tin mineral system.

Drilling confirmed that the newly discovered lithium-bearing formation, the Newall Group, extends far beyond its initial discovery at Tregonning North. Early drilling in that area had already yielded high-grade lithium intervals, including a 0.3-meter section grading 1.33% lithium oxide, with a peak grade of 1.42% lithium oxide. Phase 3 results indicate that this lithium system extends from Tregonning North to Tregonning South, with a total length of approximately 3.27 kilometers. Drilling also encountered multiple lithium-bearing layers at various depths in the area, suggesting that the project's lithium resources may be larger than previously estimated.

Phase 3 drilling also intercepted a new tin mineralization system at Tregonning South, including ten tin veins and associated sheeted vein systems identified to date. High-grade tin mineralization was encountered in multiple veins, with tin grades of 2.69% in the Norcross 1 vein, 1.26% in the Rib North vein, and 1.68% in the Rib South vein.

In conjunction with these exploration results, the company announced its name change to Cornish Tin & Lithium, reflecting its strategic evolution and focus on critical minerals for the global energy transition. The name change underscores the company's dual-commodity focus on becoming a leading domestic source of responsibly produced tin and lithium, both of which are essential for technologies such as electric vehicles, renewable energy systems, and advanced electronics.

CEO and Founder Sally Norcross-Webb stated that Tregonning South had never been systematically explored, and the Phase 3 results are outstanding. The company's integrated mining project in the West Cornwall mining district could make a significant contribution to the Cornish economy and the resilience of critical minerals in the UK and Europe.
