Jindalee Lithium Limited (Jindalee, the Company; ASX: JLL, OTCQX: JDNAF) is pleased to advise that Ian
Rodger has been appointed as the Company’s Managing Director, effective 1 July 2025.
Ian has been Jindalee’s Chief Executive Officer (CEO) since January 2024 and has overseen several critical
milestones, including completion of the McDermitt Lithium Project (McDermitt or Project) Pre-Feasibility
Study (PFS) in November 20241, publication of the Environmental Assessment for McDermitt2 (part of the
Exploration Plan of Operations for the Project) in April 2025, and recent key appointments to the Company’s
US based team.
Jindalee’s Chair Wayne Zekulich said:
“As Jindalee’s CEO Ian was responsible for delivering the McDermitt PFS, which highlighted the Project as a
potential long-life, low-cost strategic source of lithium chemicals for the US, and reinforced by the recent
inclusion of McDermitt as one of the first ten FAST-41 Transparency Projects3.
Ian’s experience as a mining engineer managing very large resource projects, together with his merchant
banking and corporate advisory experience, will be invaluable as we look to maximise shareholder value
from McDermitt, and I am delighted that Ian has agreed to lead Jindalee through the next phase of the
Company’s development.”
Jindalee’s Managing Director Ian Rodger said:
“It’s a privilege to step into the role of Managing Director at this stage in Jindalee’s journey. Over the past 18
months we’ve made solid progress advancing McDermitt – most notably delivering the PFS, progressing
permitting, securing FAST-41 Transparency Project designation, and building the foundations for the next
phase of development. I look forward to continuing to work closely with the Board and our stakeholders to
unlock the value of this strategically significant asset.”
A summary of the key terms of Mr Rodger’s contract, as required by Listing Rule 3.16.1, is attached as
Annexure A.
Authorised for release by the Jindalee Board of Directors.
