Company Profile
British Lithium Ltd was the first company to drill lithium exploration holes in the UK. Laboratory analysis of that drilling into the mica in granite revealed over 200 metres of continuous lithium mineralisation from surface. The trenching and further drilling now taking place will allow an independent expert to declare a Maiden JORC Resource Statement* early in 2020.
British Lithium is the brainchild of Roderick and Andrew Smith, working with a team of highly experienced engineers, environmental consultants, academics and geologists.
Roderick was CEO of a number of publicly listed mining companies in Australia for more than 25 years and is an acknowledged world expert in the production, supply and demand of speciality metals. A qualified chartered accountant, he has a post-graduate diploma in Mining Investment Analysis and is a Fellow of the Financial Services Institute.
Andrew Smith has worked at a senior level in the mining industry for the last thirteen years and been responsible for four successful feasibility studies. He recently project-managed the Cinovec lithium tin project in the Czech Republic and, before that, ran a large international team for Cominco’s definitive feasibility study on the $600m phosphate mine in the Republic of Congo.
