SEG Publication on the
Geology, Geochemistry, and Potential Origins of the Basin Volcano-Sedimentary Lithium Deposit
Bradda Head Lithium Ltd (AIM:BHL), the North America-focused lithium development group focused on developing US lithium for the US market, is proud to announce the Society of Economic Geologists ("SEG") publication by members of the Arizona Geological Survey in collaboration with Bradda Head on the article titled: Geology, Geochemistry, and Potential Origins of the Basin Volcano-Sedimentary Lithium Deposit, Kaiser Spring Volcanic Field, Northwestern Arizona, U.S.A. This article joins a broader initiative focused on global lithium deposits and forms one of two forthcoming compendiums to be published by the SEG.
Ian Stalker, Executive Chair, commented:
"This distinguished SEG publication is the culmination of a long-term collaboration between Bradda Head, the Arizona Geological Survey and the University of Arizona, and speaks directly to the mutually beneficial relationships Bradda has built across academia and governmental agencies in areas in which it operates. We are delighted to see the final product of this important research, highlighting the significance of Bradda's work for purposes beyond our immediate imperative and advantageous for those local to our operations. We look forward to continuing these relationships and lending our insight to develop a truly exceptional understanding of the geology and origin of lithium at our Basin project, as it relates to clay deposits."
Bradda Head's Chief Operations Officer, Joey Wilkins, and Bradda Head's geologist, Brendan Fenerty, spearheaded the Company's contribution to this publication. Bradda Head commends the authors, Lisa Anne Thompson, Carson A. Richardson, and Brian F. Gootee of the Arizona Geological Survey, for this insightful and valuable research.

About the article
Very little was known about the basin geometry and origin of lithium in which sedimentary rocks deposited, until new geologic mapping and results from Bradda's recent drilling programmes revealed sedimentological and stratigraphic evidence for a buried Miocene-aged maar crater filled with lithium-rich clay, pyroclastic rocks, and basalt flows. This facilitated the necessary data for a framework geologic study of the Basin stratigraphic architecture, the sedimentology and geochemistry of the Li-rich clay deposits within, and evidence for maar crater basin geometry. In the research article, existing and new surface and drill core geochemical data and borehole sedimentological logs have been integrated with geologic mapping to characterize the Basin stratigraphic package.
Bradda's COO Joey Wilkins has been engaged on this research project since early 2024, highlighting Bradda's collaborative approach to geological research and the valued geological expertise present in the Bradda Head team.
