CALGARY, ALBERTA–(Marketwired – June 23, 2016) – BACANORA MINERALS LTD. (“Bacanora” or the “Company”) (TSX VENTURE:BCN) (AIM:BCN), the AIM and TSX Venture Exchange listed lithium and borates company focussed on Mexico, announces that it plans to re-domicile its governing corporate jurisdiction from Canada to the UK. The Board of Bacanora has made its decision to re-domicile in consideration of the success of the Company’s AIM listing and the positive reception from UK investors, as demonstrated by the addition of two major institutions to its shareholder register in the last eight months. The decision also reflects the fact that the Company’s senior management team is increasingly based in the UK. The Board anticipates that the re-domicile will result in significant cost and administrative savings for the Company and its subsidiaries (“the Group”).

To facilitate the re-domicile, all existing common shares in Bacanora will be exchanged for ordinary shares in Bacanora Lithium Plc (“Bacanora UK”), a company that has been established in the UK to become the new holding company for the Group by way of a plan of arrangement in Canada (the “Transaction”). The share capital of Bacanora UK will be identical to the existing share capital of Bacanora and the rights attaching to the new shares in Bacanora UK will be substantially the same as for the current Bacanora shares. In all other respects, the Group will remain unchanged as a result of the Transaction.

The Transaction will be subject to shareholder and Canadian court approval. The Company will shortly send to shareholders a circular setting out full details of the Transaction and containing notice of a general and special meeting to consider and, if thought fit, approve the Transaction. Prior to the Transaction becoming effective, it is proposed that Bacanora UK will apply for its ordinary shares to be admitted to trading on AIM and the admission of Bacanora shares to AIM and Bacanora Canada will apply for de-listing from the TSX Venture Exchange once the Transaction has become effective.

VANCOUVER, BC–(Marketwired – June 24, 2016) – UEX Corporation (TSX: UEX) (“UEX” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce the radiometric results of drill hole CB-092-1 at the Christie Lake Project (the “Project”), where UEX has a $2.75 million drill program which recommenced in mid-June. The Project is owned 10% by UEX and 90% by JCU (Canada) Exploration Company Limited (“JCU”). UEX holds an option to earn up to a 70% interest in the Project.

Radiometric Equivalent Grades (“REGs” or “eU₃O₈“) from down-hole probe results from hole CB-092-1 (see Figure 1) intersected widespread uranium mineralization within which a high-grade core averaged 3.82% eU₃O₈ over 2.6 m (507.25 to 509.85 m). Within this core zone, a higher grade subinterval of 8.09% eU₃O₈ over 1.0 m was also encountered.

The eU₃O₈ grade was estimated in-situ within the drill hole using calibrated down-hole radiometric gamma probes. Samples from hole CB-092-1 (an offcut from hole CB-092 drilled this past winter) have been collected for assay analysis to confirm these equivalent grades. The samples will be analyzed at the Geoanalytical Laboratory at the Saskatchewan Research Council in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, with results expected in the coming weeks.

“By intersecting high grades, hole CB-092-1 is the first step in validating our view that a high grade core exists within the Paul Bay Deposit at Christie Lake.” – Roger Lemaitre, President & CEO, UEX Corporation

The objectives of the current exploration program at Christie Lake are to expand the high grade core of the known Paul Bay Deposit and to extend the deposit in the down-dip direction where it appears to be open for expansion (see Figure 1). The depth of the unconformity in the Paul Bay Deposit area is approximately 425 m.

About the Christie Lake Project

UEX currently holds a 10% interest in the Christie Lake Project and is working under an option agreement to earn up to a 70% interest. The Project is located approximately 9 km northeast and along strike of Cameco’s McArthur River Mine, the world’s largest uranium producer. The P2 Fault, the controlling structure for all of the McArthur River deposits, continues to the northeast beyond the mine. UEX believes that through a series of en-echelon steps the northeast strike extension of the P2 Fault not only crosses the Project but also controls the two known uranium deposits on Christie Lake, the Paul Bay and Ken Pen Deposits.

The Paul Bay and Ken Pen Deposits are estimated to host a combined 20.87 million pounds of U₃O₈ at an average grade of 3.22% U₃O₈ and were discovered in 1989 and 1993 respectively. This is a historic resource estimation which does not use resource classifications consistent with NI 43-101. The historical resource estimate was presented in an internal report titled Christie Lake Project, Geological Resource Estimate completed by PNC Tono Geoscience Center, Resource Analysis Group, dated September 12, 1997. The historical resource was calculated using a 3 D block model using block sizes of 2 m by 2 m by 2 m, and block grades interpolated using the inverse distance squared method over a circular search radius of 25 m and 1 m height. Specific gravities for each deposit were averaged from specific gravity measures of individual samples collected for assay. UEX plans to complete additional infill drilling on the deposits during the option earn-in period to upgrade these historic resources to indicated and inferred. A qualified person has not done sufficient work to classify the historic estimate as current mineral resources or mineral reserves. UEX is not treating the historic estimate as current mineral reserves or mineral resources.

VANCOUVER, BC–(Marketwired – June 22, 2016) – Zadar Ventures Ltd. (the “Company”) (TSX VENTURE: ZAD) (FRANKFURT: ZAV) (OTCQB: ZADDF) is pleased to announce that has filed an Intent to Operate with the State of Nevada to carry out, on-the-ground exploration work consisting of detailed follow up gravity geophysical survey over the WSP Project as well as three (3) diamond drill test holes on both our WSP and CR claim groups in Clayton Valley. The Company has engaged Hasbrook Geophysics, Inc. of Prescott, Arizona to conduct the Gravity surveys.

Hasbrouck Geophysics, Inc. has a long history of working in Clayton Valley which gives the Zadar the benefit of their extensive knowledge and experience within this closed basin, lithium brine environment. Inc specific, Hasbrock Geophysics, Inc. has done the geophysical surveys work for Pure Energy in the Clayton Valley as well as many other lithium exploration companies.

About the WSP and CR Lithium Projects:

The WSP project is located immediately adjacent to the Rockwood/Albamarle claims in North Clayton Valley and covers approximately 425 hectares, including a gravity low anomaly interpreted to represent a basinal low permissive to host brines containing elevated concentrations of lithium. This project’s merit is supported by a USGS test hole (Drillhole CV-2) located ~600m from the eastern claim boundary that reported a 55ppm Li maximum content from analyzed water samples.

The CR project lies approximately 18 kilometres southeast of Silver Peak, Nevada and covers over 330 hectares of an isolated and un-drilled basin which has the potential to host a similar lithium brine environment by virtue of its proximal location to the possible source of the lithium within the Clayton Valley system. This later project has also been the subject of a suite of initial gravity surveys and shows a basinal feature, which if closed, could host brines with elevated lithium concentrations.

Zadar Ventures Ltd. is a Resource Company focused on the acquisition and exploration of economically viable green energy resources in jurisdictions favorable to mining and industry. For more information we invite you to visit the company’s website at www.zadarventures.com

The Company is looking forward to an active and accretive 2016.

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA–(Marketwired – June 22, 2016) – Lithium Americas Corp. (the “Company” or “LAC”) (TSX:LAC)(OTCQX:LACDF) reports that on June 22, 2016 it will be filing an updated National Instrument 43-101 (“NI 43-101″) technical report dated May 31, 2016 on the Lithium Nevada project (formerly Kings Valley project) in Nevada, USA. (the “Report”).

Mineral Resource Estimate

In the Report, the authors confirm the mineral resource estimates on the Stage I Lens and Stage II Lens remain unchanged from the mineral resource estimates disclosed in prior technical reports and LAC’s recent continuous disclosure filings. A summary of the Mineral Resource Estimates is set forth in the table below.

Mineral Resource Statement for the Stage I Lens (effective May 31, 2016):

Notes:

1. Mineral resources are not mineral reserves and do not have demonstrated economic viability. There is no certainty that all or any part of the mineral resource will be converted into mineral reserves.
2. Resources presented at a Li% 0.20 cut-off grade which was determined using the following economic assumptions: US$3.36 Li carbonate/lb; 87.2% metallurgical recovery; US$66/tonne ore processed; US$2.75/tonne material moved.

Mineral Resource Statement for the Stage II Lens (effective May 15, 2010):

Notes:

1. Rounding errors may exist.
2. Contained metal does not allow for mine or metallurgical recovery. Tonnage factor used is 1.96 t/m³.
3. Economic assumptions do not include any potassium credits.
4. Conversion factor from Li metal to lithium carbonate equivalent (LCE) used is 5.323. Economic assumptions for cut-off grade determination are: US$3.50 Li carbonate/lb; 60% metallurgical recovery; US$50/tonne ore processed; US$2.20/tonne material moved.

The mineral resource estimates were prepared in accordance with the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum (CIM) Standards on Mineral Resources and Reserves, Definitions and Guidelines.

Mineral resources which are not mineral reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability. The estimate of mineral resources may be materially affected by environmental, permitting, legal, title, taxation, sociopolitical, marketing, or other relevant issues. The quantity and grade of reported Inferred resources in this estimation are uncertain in nature and there has been insufficient exploration to define these Inferred resources as an indicated or measured mineral resource and it is uncertain if further exploration will result in upgrading them to an Indicated or Measured mineral resource category.

Further Details of the Report

In addition to presentation of the Mineral Resource Estimates, the authors of the Report also recommend that the Company proceed with updated development studies for the property, while acknowledging that the pre-feasibility study and mine plan for the project completed in March 2012 is no longer current and should not be relied upon.

The Report was prepared by independent “Qualified Persons” (as that term is defined in NI 43-101) Timothy J. Carew, P.Geo and Mario E. Rossi, FAusIMM. For further details about the mineral resource estimates, data verification measures used and other scientific and technical information about the Lithium Nevada Project, please refer to the Report which is available under LAC’s profile on SEDAR (www.sedar.com).

Dr. David Deak, Chief Technical Officer of LAC and President of Lithium Nevada Corp. commented, “We are committed to developing this very large Nevada clay-based lithium resource to provide the battery industry with a new supply source of lithium hydroxide. Our efforts in 2016 will be focused on establishing new design criteria for low cost commercial scale production of lithium hydroxide with a flow sheet and mine plan that sets new standards for environmental sustainable resource development. We will be advancing the engineering development work, and growing the technical team to build on the excellent foundation that has already been established.”

About the Company

The Company is developing the Cauchari-Olaroz lithium project, located in Jujuy province, Argentina, and the Lithium Nevada project (formerly Kings Valley project) in Nevada, USA, with the intent to become a major supplier of lithium products. In addition, Lithium Americas is a supplier of specialty drilling additives, Hectatone™ and other organoclay products for the oil and gas and other industries.

CALGARY, AB–(Marketwired – June 21, 2016) –

(TSX: ECA)(NYSE: ECA)

Encana Corporation announced today that it has reached an agreement to sell its Gordondale assets in northwestern Alberta to Birchcliff Energy Ltd. (TSX: BIR) for a total cash consideration of C$625 million.

The sale includes approximately 54,200 net acres of land and associated infrastructure. In addition, through the transfer of current and future obligations, Encana is reducing midstream and downstream commitments by more than C$100 million on an undiscounted basis. No drilling or completions capital has been spent or was planned for the area in 2016.

As highlighted at Encana’s recent Montney Investor Day in May 2016, the company has a large inventory of high-quality potential drilling locations in the play. Following this sale, Encana’s Montney play will comprise of over 9,000 potential drilling locations with two-thirds of those wells located in the condensate-rich part of the play.

“We are tightening our portfolio and sharpening our focus in the Montney where we expect to grow liquids production to 50,000 barrels per day by the end of 2018,” said Doug Suttles, Encana President & CEO. “This transaction further strengthens our balance sheet and gives us greater financial flexibility as we look to the future.”

Encana’s Gordondale assets produced an average of 25,200 barrels of oil equivalent (BOE) per day on a net after-royalty basis during the first quarter of 2016, comprising 65 percent natural gas and 35 percent liquids. Based on Encana’s development plan at year-end 2015, estimated proved reserves were approximately 50 million barrels of oil equivalent (MMBOE) on a net after-royalty basis.

The sale of Encana’s Gordondale assets is subject to the satisfaction of normal closing conditions, as well as regulatory approvals and post-closing adjustments. The transaction is expected to close in the summer of 2016 with an effective date of January 1, 2016.

Encana common shares trade on the Toronto and New York stock exchanges under the symbol ECA.

ADVISORY REGARDING OIL AND GAS INFORMATION – Reserves are the estimated remaining quantities of oil and natural gas and related substances anticipated to be recoverable from known accumulations, from a given date forward, based on: analysis of drilling, geological, geophysical and engineering data, the use of established technology, and specified economic conditions, which are generally accepted as being reasonable. Proved reserves are those reserves which can be estimated with a high degree of certainty to be recoverable. It is likely that the actual remaining quantities recovered will exceed the estimated proved reserves.

The conversion of natural gas volumes to BOE is on the basis of six thousand cubic feet to one barrel. BOE is based on a generic energy equivalency conversion method primarily applicable at the burner tip and does not represent economic value equivalency at the wellhead. Readers are cautioned that BOE may be misleading, particularly if used in isolation.

This news release discloses potential drilling locations, which include proved, probable, contingent and unbooked locations. These estimates are prepared internally based on Encana’s prospective acreage and an assumption as to the number of wells that can be drilled per section based on industry practice and internal review. Approximately 20 percent of these locations were booked as either reserves or resources, as prepared by independent qualified reserves evaluators using forecast prices and costs as of December 31, 2015. Unbooked locations do not have attributed reserves or resources and have been identified by management as an estimation of Encana’s multi-year drilling activities based on evaluation of applicable geologic, seismic, engineering, production and reserves information. There is no certainty that Encana will drill all unbooked locations and if drilled there is no certainty that such locations will result in additional oil and gas reserves, resources or production. The locations on which Encana will actually drill wells, including the number and timing thereof is ultimately dependent upon the availability of capital, regulatory and partner approvals, seasonal restrictions, equipment and personnel, oil and natural gas prices, costs, actual drilling results, additional reservoir information that is obtained, production rate recovery, transportation constraints and other factors. While certain of the unbooked locations have been de-risked by drilling existing wells in relative close proximity to such locations, many of other unbooked locations are farther away from existing wells where management has less information about the characteristics of the reservoir and therefore there is more uncertainty whether wells will be drilled in such locations and if drilled there is more uncertainty that such wells will result in additional proved or probable reserves, resources or production.

ADVISORY REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS – This news release contains certain forward-looking statements or information (collectively, “forward-looking statements” or “FLS”) within the meaning of applicable securities legislation. FLS include, but are not limited to: expected proceeds from the sale of the Gordondale assets, the use of proceeds therefrom, the expectation that the closing conditions and regulatory approvals will be satisfied and the timing of closing thereof; expected reduction in midstream and downstream commitments; potential drilling locations, including quantity, quality and commodity composition; growth of liquids production in the Montney and timeframe thereof; and impact of the transaction to strengthen the balance sheet and provide greater financial flexibility.

Readers are cautioned against unduly relying on FLS which, by their nature, involve numerous assumptions, risks and uncertainties that may cause such statements not to occur, or for results to differ materially from those expressed or implied. These assumptions include: enforceability of the agreement; the ability of the parties to satisfy closing conditions and regulatory approvals; the value of adjustments to the expected proceeds from the transaction; assumptions contained in Encana’s 2016 corporate guidance and in this news release; data contained in key modeling statistics; effectiveness of Encana’s resource play hub model to drive productivity and efficiencies; and expectations and projections made in light of, and generally consistent with, Encana’s historical experience and its perception of historical trends, including with respect to the pace of technological development, the benefits achieved and general industry expectations.

Risks and uncertainties that may affect these business outcomes include: risks inherent to closing the transaction including whether it will close on a timely basis or at all; adjustments that may reduce the expected proceeds to Encana; commodity price volatility; counterparty and credit risk; imprecision of reserves estimates and estimates of recoverable quantities of natural gas and liquids from resource plays and other sources not currently classified as proved, probable or possible reserves or economic contingent resources, including future net revenue estimates; risks associated with past and future divestitures of certain assets or other transactions or receive amounts contemplated under the transaction agreements (such transactions may include third-party capital investments, farm-outs or partnerships, which Encana may refer to from time to time as “partnerships” or “joint ventures” and the funds received in respect thereof which Encana may refer to from time to time as “proceeds”, “deferred purchase price” and/or “carry capital”, regardless of the legal form) as a result of various conditions not being met; and other risks and uncertainties impacting Encana’s business, as described in its most recent MD&A, financial statements, Annual Information Form and Form 40-F, as filed on SEDAR and EDGAR.

Although Encana believes the expectations represented by such FLS are reasonable, there can be no assurance that such expectations will prove to be correct. Readers are cautioned that the assumptions, risks and uncertainties referenced above are not exhaustive. FLS are made as of the date of this news release and, except as required by law, Encana undertakes no obligation to update publicly or revise any FLS. The FLS contained in this news release are expressly qualified by these cautionary statements.

CALGARY, ALBERTA–(Marketwired – June 22, 2016) – Mkango Resources Ltd. (TSX VENTURE:MKA)(AIM:MKA) (the “Corporation” or “Mkango“), is pleased to announce that it is in the process of acquiring from the Malawi Geological Survey new airborne geophysical data covering the majority of its Phalombe and Thambani exclusive prospecting licences in Malawi.

The nationwide airborne geophysical survey was part of a US$25 million World Bank funded project. The airborne geophysical component of the project comprised the following:

• High resolution airborne geophysics flown at 250 metre spacing
• Uranium, potassium and thorium radiometric surveys
• Magnetic survey
• Gravity survey
• Raw data production

On 15^th June 2016, Hon Bright Msaka SC, Malawi’s Minister for Natural Resources, Energy and Mining launched the five-year Geological Mapping and Mineral Assessment Project (GEMMAP) in Lilongwe, which encompasses ground truthing of the aforementioned airborne geophysical survey.

The Government of France is supporting the project, which aims to acquire geo-scientific and mineral occurrence data to be used to promote and maximise the mining sector’s contribution to the country’s socio-economic development.

Malawi was last mapped in the 1950s and 1960s using aerial photography with very limited follow up ground work. GEMMAP will be implemented by a consortium of the Malawian Geological Survey, French Geological Survey (BRGM), Council for Geosciences of South Africa and the Geological Survey of Finland (GTK).

Alexander Lemon, President of Mkango, stated:

“We believe GEMMAP will significantly enhance Malawi’s credentials as an investment destination for exploration and mining and we look forward to spearheading development of the sector, working closely with the Government of Malawi. Auspiciously, GEMMAP was launched on the same day as Mkango’s very successful listing on AIM.”

Furthermore, we are excited to be acquiring the new airborne geophysical data covering the majority of the Phalombe and Thambani licences in Malawi, which have excellent potential for rare earths and uranium, respectively. We look forward to providing the market with further updates.”

About Mkango Resources Ltd.

Mkango’s primary business is the exploration for rare earth elements and associated minerals in the Republic of Malawi, a country whose hospitable people have earned it a reputation as “the warm heart of Africa”. Mkango holds, through its wholly owned subsidiary Lancaster Exploration Limited, a 100% interest in two exclusive prospecting licenses in southern Malawi.

The main exploration target in the Phalombe licence is the Songwe Hill rare earth deposit, which features carbonatite hosted rare earth mineralisation and was subject to previous exploration in the late 1980s and for which Mkango completed an updated Pre-feasibility study in November 2015.

The main exploration target in the Thambani licence is a uranium, niobium and tantalum prospect. In January 2015, Mkango announced the first set of assay results of 142 soil and rock chip samples from 9 trenches, which returned variably anomalous uranium, niobium and tantalum values in most trenches, ranging up to 4.70 % U₃O₈, 3.25 % Nb₂O₅ in soil and up to 0.42 % U₃O₈, 0.78 % Nb₂O₅ and 972 ppm Ta₂O₅ in rock chips.

KELOWNA, BRITISH COLUMBIA–(Marketwired – June 21, 2016) – Fission 3.0 Corp. (TSX VENTURE:FUU) (“Fission 3“) is pleased to announce preliminary drill results from the first six holes at its Macusani property in Southeastern Peru, including MAC16-003, which intersected 0.50m of mineralization with a peak of 3,100 cps within approximately 1.5m from surface. Four of the six holes intersected mineralization within approximately 15m from surface, all of which were located on the Llama South prospect at Macusani, where surface outcrops returned anomalies up to 2.5% Uranium. The initial drill operation permits expired on June 15 and thus the program is temporarily suspended and expected to resume late August, 2016, pending an expected permit extension.

Results Highlights

• Hole MAC16-003: Near-surface mineralization intersected over a 0.50m interval (1.50m to 2.00m) with radioactivity averaging 2,100 cps with a peak of 3,100 cps
• Hole MAC16-005: Near-surface mineralization intersected over a 3.50m interval (2.00m to 5.50m) with radioactivity averaging 700 cps with a peak of 920 cps and a 2nd mineralized 0.50m interval (6.00m to 6.50m) with peak radioactivity of 1,260 cps
• Shallow mineralization: Four holes intersected mineralization within approximately 15m from surface
• Promising Radioactivity Counts: Anomalous radioactivity peak of 3,100 cps (hole MAC16-003)
• Location Prospective for High Grades: All holes drilled at the Llama south prospect, where high-grade surface outcrops have been discovered

Ross McElroy, President, COO, and Chief Geologist for Fission, commented

“These early results are highly encouraging. We’ve hit mineralization in four of our first six holes and at a very shallow depth, with anomalous radioactivity of up to 3,100 cps. Considering the Llama South target is on trend with two nearby uranium deposits with recent resource estimates – Plateau Uranium’s Corachapi Complex and Corani Complex – this first pass drilling at Macusani further demonstrates the potential of this area and is an excellent start to our exploration program.”

Table 1: Llama South Prospect

Natural gamma radiation in drill core as stated in this news release is recorded in the field, measured in counts per second (cps) using a hand held GR-130G Scintillometer manufactured by Radiation Solutions. The reader is cautioned that scintillometer readings are not directly or uniformly related to uranium grades of the rock sample measured, and should be used only as a preliminary indication of the presence of radioactive materials. The degree of radioactivity within the mineralized intervals can be highly variable. All intersections are down-hole. All depths reported of core interval measurements including radioactivity and mineralization intervals widths are not necessarily representative of true thickness and true thicknesses are yet to be determined.

Samples from the drill core will be split in half sections on site. Where possible, samples will be standardized at 0.5m down-hole intervals. One-half of the split sample will be sent to Bureau Veritas Commodities Canada Ltd in Lima Peru for preparation and the pulps will be sent onwards to their lab (an SCC ISO/IEC 17025: 2005 Accredited Facility) in Vancouver, BC for analysis which includes U₃O₈ (wt %) and U ppm, while the other half remains on site for reference. All analysis includes a 40 element ICP‐ES & ICP‐MS, including gold, silver and all REE’s. Uranium analysis will be by ICP-MS and lithium by ICP-ES.

The Macusani Project

The Macusani property is located within southeastern Peru. Fission 3.0 Corp. holds the rights to 9 claim blocks encompassing 51 km². The district is mining-friendly, has a mild climate and has solid infrastructure, including all-weather roads and low-cost power.

Within the area, the stratigraphy is dominated by the sub-horizontal Pliocene Quenamari Formation, which is mainly composed of ignimbrite layers. Uranium anomalies occur on plateaus that are composed of the Upper Yapamayo Member of the Quenamari Formation. Sampling to date has shown that the most significant uranium anomalies appear to be restricted to this assemblage. Mineralization within the area is dominated by very high grade Autinite veins along ‘enriched fault planes’, with lesser disseminated mineralization. The significant fault planes can vary from up to 2 m thick, while multiple enriched fault planes occur in shear zones up to 150 m across.

TORONTO, ONTARIO–(Marketwired – June 20, 2016) – Crystal Peak Minerals Inc. (“Crystal Peak” or the “Company”) (TSX VENTURE:CPM)(OTCQX:CPMMF) announced today that it has commissioned a team of experienced and skilled professionals to advance the development of previously identified lithium concentrations found in brine at its premium specialty fertilizer project on the Sevier Playa in southwestern Utah, U.S.A. (the “Sevier Playa Project”).

The lithium development team includes Branson Hamilton, Dr. James W. Patten, Ph.D., and Stephen Styler, J.D. This skilled team has substantial experience in mineral production, technology, and business development strategies. The lithium development team seeks to accelerate evaluation of technical processes for lithium production and evaluate and pursue business partnership and off-take agreements as the Company completes the feasibility study and environmental permitting necessary to begin construction.

“We are extremely pleased to commission this experienced team to help us better understand the tremendous potential our project has for lithium production,” said Lance D’Ambrosio, Chief Executive Officer of Crystal Peak. “In addition to producing SOP and other associated minerals, our world-class deposit will likely be able to help meet the ever-increasing demand for lithium while simultaneously providing additional value to our shareholders.”

The need for developing new lithium sources was made evident in the 8^th Annual Lithium & Supply Conference held May 24-26, 2016 by Industrial Minerals in Las Vegas, Nevada, USA. Presentations focused on strengthening supply for lithium products used in hybrid and electric vehicle batteries and other traditional technologies. Despite substantial supply-demand growth, most development-stage lithium companies are in the initial phases of exploration and lack Canadian National Instrument 43-101 reports validating the potential of their projects.

In contrast to these ventures, Crystal Peak’s preliminary feasibility study (“PFS”) entitled “NI 43-101 Technical Report Preliminary Feasibility Study of the Sevier Lake Playa Sulphate of Potash Project, Millard County, Utah” with an effective date of October 25, 2013, clearly identified lithium in meaningful concentrations of 0.134% in the pond bitterns. While Crystal Peak’s PFS targeted the production of potassium sulphate, that technical report also stated; “Preliminary evaluation of the feasibility of lithium production from solar pond bitterns is recommended… If this work shows promise, additional testing would be recommended to more fully define potential recovery and operating costs.”

Please refer to the PFS, which is available on SEDAR (www.sedar.com) and on the Company’s website (www.crystalpeakminerals.com), for further details.
