Bradda Head Lithium Ltd Announces Canadian Filing Extension

Canadian Filing Extension for Audited Annual Financial Statements Granted

Bradda Head Lithium Ltd. (AIM:BHL)(TSXV:BHLI)(OTCQB:BHLIF) (‘Bradda Head’ or the ‘Company’), the North America-focused lithium development company, is pleased to provide more information in respect of the information included in its press releases of 13 June 2023, announcing its change of auditor, and of 29 June 2023, announcing that the British Columbia Securities Commission (‘BCSC’) has issued a management cease trade order (the ‘MCTO’) in relation to the late filing of the Company’s audited financial statements for the year ended 28 February 2023 (‘Financial Statements’) which resulted due to the required change of auditor

The Board wishes to make clear that the MCTO has no effect on general trading in the Company’s shares, either on AIM or the TSX-V. The only individuals affected are the Company’s CEO and the CFO. Equally, the Company is not in breach of any AIM rules. As previously stated, the only reason for a change in auditor was to comply with the TSX-V requirement for an auditor to be recognised by the Canadian Public Accountability Board which our previous auditors were not. As a result of this change, the Company’s new auditors understandably required additional time to complete this new assignment, hence the need for a short extension.

The newly granted TSX-V filing deadline of 28 August 2023 aligns with the requirement under AIM Rule 19 to publish the Financial Statements by 31 August 2023. The Company currently expects to publish the Financial Statements in late July/early August 2023, well ahead of AIM deadlines and the extended filing date granted pursuant to the MCTO.

Charles FitzRoy, CEO of Bradda Head Lithium, Commented
‘The Company remains well funded with a strong cash balance of £5.4 million as at 31 March 2023, and has an extensive drill programme planned to start shortly at its San Domingo pegmatite district in Arizona that the Board believe will generate material catalysts for the Company.

‘Drilling is also underway at the Company’s lithium-in-clay Basin project in Arizona which will lead to a further significant resource upgrade in H2 of this year.’
