基于之前宣布的资源估计，蒙哥马利和合伙人在里奥格兰德项目的技术报告中更新了资源估计，包括额外的616,000吨锂碳酸盐当量（“ LCE ”），浓度估计为571毫克/升（“ mg / l”）的测量资源，123,000公吨（“ Mt ”）的锂碳酸盐指示资源，其浓度估计为594毫克/升，以及159,000 Mt锂碳酸盐的推断资源，浓度估计为468毫克/升，共计测量，指示和推断矿物资源预计（“MRE”）为4,697,000 Mt锂碳酸盐，平均浓度估计为525毫克/升。
Highlights from the updated Technical Report include:
更新后技术报告的亮点包括：
Significant Measured Resource Expansion: There has been a significant increase in Measured resources to 2,094,000 Mt of LCE, from 1,478,000 Mt of LCE previously estimated, resulting in an increase of 42%.
Measured and Indicated Expansion: Associated with the increase above, Measured and Indicated Resource increased to 2,658,000 Mt of LCE, from 1,919,000 Mt of LCE previously estimated, resulting in an increase of 38%.
Revised Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE): The new MRE at the Rio Grande Project contains a total resource of approximately 4.7 million Mt of LCE with concentration estimated at 525 mg/l, resulting in an increase of 24% compared to the previously estimated MRE of approximately 3.8 million Mt that was disclosed in the Company's press release dated May 29, 2024.
重要的测量资源扩展：测量资源的数量从之前估计的1,478,000公吨锂碳酸盐显著增加到2,094,000公吨锂碳酸盐，增加了42％。
测量和指示的扩展：随着上述增加，测量和指示资源从先前估计的1,919,000公吨锂碳酸盐增加到2,658,000公吨锂碳酸盐，增加了38％。
修订的矿物资源估算（MRE）：里奥格兰德项目的新MRE包含约470万公吨LCE的总资源，浓度估计为525毫克/升，与公司2024年5月29日披露的约380万公吨LCE的先前估计MRE相比增加了约24％。
NOA's Chief Executive Officer Gabriel Rubacha states: "This substantial increase in the resource estimate at our flagship Rio Grande Project highlights the progress NOA's team has made and emphasizes that this project continues to develop into a world class asset. We are encouraged by the updated results and look forward to starting our second stage drilling campaign to continue to develop this project and unlock value for our shareholders."
NOA首席执行官Gabriel Rubacha表示：“我们的旗舰里奥格兰德项目资源估计大幅增加，突出了NOA团队的进展情况，并强调该项目继续发展成为世界一流的资产。我们对更新后的结果感到鼓舞，并期待开始我们的第二阶段钻探活动，继续开发该项目并为股东创造价值。”

Notes:
注：
Mineral Resources that are not Mineral Reserves, do not have demonstrated economic viability. There is no certainty that any or all of the Mineral Resources can be converted into Mineral Reserves after application of the modifying factors.
这些矿产资源并非矿产储量，未能证明具备经济价值。无法确保将这些矿产资源中的任何一种或全部转化为矿产储量，即便使用了修正因素也仍不确定。
The conversion factor used to calculate the equivalents from their metal ions is simple and based on the molar weight for the elements added to generate the equivalent. The equations are as follows: Li x 5.3228 = lithium carbonate equivalent (Li 2 CO 3 ).
用于计算相当量的换算因子是基于添加元素的摩尔质量计算出来的。方程如下：Li x 5.3228 = 锂碳酸盐当量（Li2 CO 3）。
Tonnages are rounded to the nearest thousand and grades are rounded to the nearest whole number; comparison of values may not add due to rounding.
吨位四舍五入至千位，品位四舍五入至整数；由于舍入关系，该值的比较可能不准确。
