New to the ASX

Lithium Plus Minerals started trading on the ASX on Tuesday. Shares were initially offered to the public at 25 cents per share. The company raised $10 million from this initial public offering (IPO) to commence explorations for lithium at key projects in the Northern Territory.

Lithium Plus plans an aggressive drilling program targeting a mineral resource estimate in the first quarter of 2023, an investor presentation reveals.

The company's flagship project is Bynoe, located near the Finniss Project owned by Core Lithium Ltd (ASX: CXO).

The board is led by Dr Bin Guo, who is the executive chairman and founder of the company.

Commenting on the outlook for Lithium Plus Minerals, Guo said:

We are now simply excited to get started on aggressively exploring this world-class package of lithium ground.
