HEALTH, SAFETY AND ENVIRONMENT
Mali Lithium recorded no Lost Time Injury (LTI) incidents at the Company’s operations during the third quarter. A
review of safety and operating procedures was conducted in preparation for the drilling program that commenced in
October 2019.
PERMIT STATUS
The Company was granted the Operating (Mining) permit by the Malian government on 26 August 2019, completing the
final regulatory hurdle for the Goulamina Lithium Project. The permit was granted under the 2012 Malian Mining Code,
covers the Company’s entire Torokoro Permit for the Exploitation of Lithium and has been granted for a period of thirty
(30) years, renewable in intervals of ten (10) years until depletion of the reserves within the permit area.
Applications were lodged for the second renewal of the: N’tiola (PR 15/715) and Finkola Sud (PR 13/672) Permits. As
part of the renewal of the N'tiola permit, a field visit was carried out at the request of the DNGM. A similar visit will take
place in the December quarter for the renewal of the Finkola Sud permit.
The Makono Renewal process is now complete and the Finkola renewal is expected shortly.
GOULAMINA LITHIUM PROJECT
During the Quarter the main focus has been on metallurgical testwork and de-risking the non process infrastructure and
logistics aspects of the project. The following outlines progress during the quarter and, where applicable, the direction
that the definitive engineering study (DFS) is heading.
Mineral Resources and Reserves
A drilling program will commence at Goulamina in early November. The main objectives are the expansion of inferred
resources, and the conversion of inferred resources within the current pit design, to indicated. Targeted drilling for
groundwater will also be undertaken during this campaign.
In addition, some drilling resources will be dedicated to exploring opportunities for expanding the size of the Resource
and Reserve as well as defining future exploration targets.
Metallurgical Testwork
Results have exceeded expectations with 80% overall recovery achieved from flotation testwork. Definitive flotation
work and variability testwork is now underway. This testwork has provided excellent indication that the 70% recovery
assumed in the PFS can be materially improved.
A representative bulk sample of Goulamina ore at a grade of 1.7% Li2O was reduced to -4mm top size using High Pressure
Grinding Rolls (HPGR) at the Nagrom laboratory in Perth. The crushed sample was then used for flotation testwork after
being ground to P80 of 106 microns.
3
The first stage of the program was designed to establish baseline parameters to be used for optimisation, variability and
de-risking flotation testwork. Four different reagent schemes were selected for testing based on knowledge and experience
gained from similar operations.
Overall recovery is calculated by subtracting the lithium lost in the preparation and beneficiation processes (flotation,
mica removal, slimes and magnetic separation) from the total lithium in the initial feed. The flotation test results exceeded
expectations, producing concentrate grades exceeding 6% Li₂O at 90% flotation recoveries in the Rougher flotation stage,
resulting in approximately 80% recovery overall.
It has been proven that flotation efficiency is significantly improved when mica, magnetic material and slimes are
removed efficiently prior to the flotation process. Testwork is now targeting further improvements to overall recovery by
reducing lithium losses associated with these processes. A separate program of magnetic separation testing will be used
to identify and size the equipment most suited to the Goulamina deposit.
The program will be completed with variability and settling and filtration testwork for design and scale-up testing.
This testwork program to date has delivered a significant improvement on the 70% recovery achieved during the PFS and
suggests that ore from the Goulamina deposit can be beneficiated to produce a high-grade (6% Li2O) product while
achieving best in class recovery of contained lithium.
During the quarter, China Minmetals Corporation (Minmetals) subsidiary, the Changsha Research Institute of Mining
and Metallurgy (CRIMM) committed to commence testing ore from the Goulamina Lithium Project at its laboratory in
Changsha.
Minmetals is a Chinese Government-owned company valued at about US$470 billion with considerable research,
funding, offtake, engineering and construction capability. It has a long history of expertise in lithium processing and
product marketing through its specialist research facility and its subsidiary Hunan Changyuan Lico Co Ltd (Hunan).
Minmetals has completed extensive due diligence and analysis of the Goulamina Lithium Project, and Minmetal’s
expansion of our relationship is a big vote of confidence in the project.
Mining
A tender for contract mining services has been issued, with 5 of the 6 recipients due to present a tender submission in the
first week of November.
DFS Process Plant Engineering
During August a site visit was undertaken by key personnel from the MLL project team and the Lycopodium study team.
Work has now commenced on reviewing the process design and equipment sizing assumptions.
Non-Process Infrastructure
Accommodation
• A new permanent base has been acquired in Bougouni to house the geology team and visitors
• A tender was issued for the installation of a 12-man exploration camp, with submissions currently under evaluation.
• A preferred location for the permanent construction and operations camp has been identified. A 3G signal is achievable
in this location which offers potential savings on communications infrastructure
4
Power
Discussions are underway with Energie Du Mali (EDM), the sole provider of electricity in Mali, to investigate
opportunities for the supply of power from the Hydroelectric power station located at Sélingué Dam. The energy situation
in Mali is constantly developing and it is likely that the current supply situation will change with the introduction of solar
power generation, with a number of proposals in place for the Sikasso region.
Regardless of these discussions, the mine will need its own independent power generation capacity. The study team has
met with a number of service providers and it has been determined that Build Own Operate (BOO) is preferable to an
owner-operation model and will not only reduce capital cost but will better suit the operational needs of the mine.
Stand-alone diesel generation is still an option under consideration, but, particularly with uncertainty over oil prices, it
has been determined that there are opportunities to reduce the life of mine cost per kWh by implementing either a solar
hybrid system or taking advantage of alternative fuels, such as LPG, which are becoming more prevalent in the region.
Water
Good progress has been made on developing a robust water management plan for the Project. Water for the processing
plant and supporting infrastructure will be drawn from several sources;
• A geophysical survey has been carried out at Goulamina and has identified several prospective targets for
groundwater. These targets are expected to be drilled and tested during the November drilling campaign. Subject to
the testing results, groundwater is likely to be the main source of water during construction.
• A report by AQ2 and supporting geotechnical testwork has demonstrated the viability of constructing two Surface
Water Run Off Facilities (SWROF). These facilities will harvest surface water run-off during the wet season, with
modelling work showing that based on average rainfall statistics and allowing for evaporation and seepage, they will
provide sufficient water for operations, assuming a 25-35% recovery of water from the plant’s tailings storage facility.
• Following detailed negotiations with the Director of Hydraulics for Sikasso and a resulting site visit, MLL has been
given approval to draw water from Sélingué Dam. Water will be pumped 29km from the dam to one of the SWROFs,
intermittently. The volume of water to be drawn will be determined by what is produced from bores and harvested
volumes. This agreement effectively de-risks the Project entirely in terms of water supply. An additional benefit of
installing this pipeline is that it will enable offtakes to be put in place to supply local villages with clean, treated water.
Logistics
Road Transport
Several options have been investigated for the transport and shipment of product from the Goulamina mine. Abidjan and
San Pedro in Côte d'Ivoire are the primary options. Dakar port in Senegal was also given consideration but dismissed due
to the distance and current condition of the roads.
MLL has carried out an assessment of all practical routes from the mine site to both Abidjan and San Pedro ports, with
an in-country logistics consultant driving each of the routes and producing detailed reports.
There is a major project underway to upgrade road infrastructure both in Mali and Côte d'Ivoire, funded by la Banque
Africaine de Development (BAD) with a budget of US$58m. This project was due for completion in December 2018 but
is estimated to be 2 years behind schedule. Additionally, the Côte d'Ivoire government is spending €1.8bn on upgrades to
the country’s road infrastructure. It is estimated that this project will be complete by the end of 2022.
5
Regardless of these delays it is expected that, by the time Goulamina mine is in production, road infrastructure will not
be a major differential in selecting a port for shipment of product. The route user assessments will be re-run prior to a
final decision.
MLL has received firm stand alone pricing for transport of product from the mine to Abidjan port. The pricing per tonne
is in line with what was used in the PFS.
A major opportunity for the Project is the backloading of product. There are a number of operations that transport bulk
products, such as aggregates, from Abidjan port to Bamako in Mali with the trucks making the return trip empty.
MLL has had detailed discussions with a company that could potentially backload all of the concentrate produced at
Goulamina, based on the fleet of trucks it intends to commission to transport clinker for a new cement plant in Bamako.
This could significantly reduce transport costs.
Port Infrastructure
San Pedro port is 142km closer to the mine site than the shortest route to Abidjan. There are plans for major development
of port infrastructure in the coming years, but it is difficult to judge at what pace these developments will occur.
At present there are no existing facilities suitable for the bulk export of spodumene concentrate, but there is significant
potential for San Pedro to be an option in the short to medium term future. Further meetings have been organised with
the port authority and port service providers to discuss these options.
Abidjan port already exports both zinc concentrate and bauxite and is a much larger facility. MLL have visited the port
and have received a firm proposal for storage and ship loading services using existing facilities. There is also an option
to construct new facilities, including a shiploader, to increase efficiency of loading operations, at no capital cost to the
project.
Further opportunities pertaining to transport and logistics will be pursued over the coming months, prior to issue of the
DFS in the first quarter of 2020
DOWNSTREAM SCOPING STUDY
Post quarter, after receiving funds from the rights issue, the Company announced that it will be commencing a Scoping
Study into the downstream processing of the 6% Li2O product from its Goulamina Project. This is a stand alone study
that aims to add additional value by producing ‘intermediate’ Lithium products such as Lithium Sulphate or Lithium
Oxide that can then undergo final conversion to Lithium Carbonate or Hydroxide at existing conversion plants or new
facilities in, say Europe.
Global Engineering firm Hatch has been engaged to assist the Company in this study which is expected to take
approximately eight weeks to complete.
GOLD PROJECTS
The Company conducted an audit during the quarter on gold mined on the Viper and N’Tiola deposits by Barrick Gold
over the prior 12 months. The reconciliation matched with the royalty payments received by the Company and a thorough
understanding of the Morila Gold operation was developed during the audit.
6
The Company announced that it intended to commence drilling on one of its gold tenements within the Massigui area, in
October 2019. The drill program will take approximately two weeks and is being completed by Capital Drilling, who
participated in the entitlement issue announced in September 2019.
Promising mineralisation has been detected during previous drilling campaigns at Koting and the Company intends to
build upon these previous positive results during the current campaign.
CASH POSITION
The company had $1.6 million of funds at 30 September 2019. On 18 September the Company announced the launch of
a Renounceable Rights Issue which closed on 10 October 2019, raising A$4.23 million before costs. The Company has
the ability to place the remaining shortfall of approximately A$1M over the next three months. Any shortfall will be
placed on the terms and conditions as set out in the prospectus lodged with the Australian Securities and Investment
Commission on 18 September 2019 (and for which the Shortfall Offer made under the prospectus remains open).
After all funds were received from the rights issue the cash position of the Company on 18 October 2019 was
A$5.04 million.
The increase in the company’s cash position is not reflected in the attached Appendix 5B as the shares were allotted after
the reporting date of 30 September 2019.
The capital structure of the Company post the Entitlement offer (10 October 2019) is set out below.
Listed Fully Paid Shares Number of shares on

The final June Quarter receipt arising from the processing Viper and N’toila ore through Barricks Morila mine facility
(Morila Royalty) were settled in the current quarter giving rise to net proceeds of $0.5million. Mining and processing of
the Viper and N’toila ore was completed in the June quarter.
Quarter on quarter staff and administration costs continue to decline. The reduction of staffing costs reflects both the
reduction of staff / contractor numbers and the replacement of high cost contractors with permanent employees.
CORPORATE
Further consolidation of the Company operations occurred during the Quarter with a general trend for in house staff to
replace the previous heavy reliance on contractors. This serves the dual purpose of reducing costs and keeping Intellectual
Property within the Company.
The twelve month contract with Anand Sheth concluded during the quarter as well as the consulting agreement with Mark
Hepburn, who remains as an Non Executive Director with the Company.
Post quarter end, Mali Lithium signed a Memorandum of Understanding with major Chinese contractor China Henan
International Cooperation Group Co (CHICO) for an Early Contractor Involvement at the Goulamina Lithium Project.
As part of the MOU, CHICO will provide – at its own expense – Capital Expenditure and Operational Expenditure
estimates by the end of January 2020 that the Company can use to complement the DFS. CHICO is a vastly experienced
contractor in West Africa and will also provide a range of advice on early works at Goulamina.
