Andrada Mining has intersected lithium grades of up to 3.02% Li₂O at its Lithium Ridge project in Namibia, confirming mineralization continuity from surface to depths of 160 meters. The results stem from the inaugural diamond drilling program under the Stage 1 exploration initiative, which is in partnership with Sociedad Química y Minera de Chile through SQM Australia, allowing SQM to earn a 30% stake in the project.

Notable drill results include 9.63 meters at 2.12% Li₂O in hole LRD003 and 24.44 meters at 1.38% Li₂O in hole LRD010. The program, which began in August 2025, plans for 14,000 meters of drilling across 120 holes, with ongoing drilling and updates as assay results are processed.
