5LA1 American Lithium Corp

American Lithium Corp. (“American Lithium” or the “Company”) (TSX-V:LI | Nasdaq:AMLI | Frankfurt:5LA1) is pleased to issue a letter to shareholders.

Dear Shareholders,

As the newly appointed Interim Chief Executive Officer of American Lithium, I am pleased to update you on our progress as we prepare for an inevitable lithium market recovery, particularly for “Made in America” lithium carbonate. All told, it has been a challenging period for the battery metals industry, with market conditions affecting all lithium developers worldwide. Despite this, we are committed and poised for what we are confident will be a robust recovery, especially with recent global developments creating renewed optimism.

The sharp decline in lithium prices – from a high of $85,000 per ton to around $10,000 per ton, has impacted valuations across the board for all lithium developers, including us. This being said, we remain focused on diligently advancing each of our large-scale “green metals” deposits towards a pre-feasibility study (an initial blueprint for a mine) and beyond.

To adapt to evolving market conditions, we have taken proactive steps, including cost-cutting measures, carefully managing our advanced development work, implementing management changes, and prioritizing the preservation of our treasury. These actions are designed to prepare us for when market conditions improve. Our top priority remains ensuring the advancement of all ongoing projects and continuing our strong relationships with our communities.

As the first seedlings of an industry-wide recovery begin to sprout, we are seeing new marketplaces emerge to support the advent of premium pricing for lithium carbonate supplies. This bodes especially well for American Lithium.

Plus, we aim to benefit from Peru’s bid to generate its own nuclear energy, as one of the founding members of the International Atomic Energy Agency, by unlocking value at the Company’s premier Macusani Uranium Project.

Our business fundamentals remain strong going forward. In fact, the past 18 months have seen our resource base grow substantially at both TLC and Falchani, elevating them on a global scale.

Both countries in which we operate continue to support securing a strong domestic critical metals supply chain and our goal is to provide a meaningful contribution to this end.

I look forward to the opportunity to share our strategic vision for the future with you and all our stakeholders. In line with this, we will be publishing an operational update this month on our projects and the path forward. Thank you for your ongoing support and commitment to the American Lithium.

Cautionary Note Regarding 32 Concessions

Thirty-two of the one-hundred-seventy-four concessions comprising the Falchani and Macusani Projects are currently subject to Administrative and Judicial processes in Peru to overturn resolutions issued by INGEMMET and the Mining Council of MINEM in February 2019 and July 2019, respectively, which declared title to thirty-two concessions invalid due to late receipt of the annual validity payments. On November 2, 2021, American Lithium was awarded a favorable ruling in regard to title to the concessions, but on November 26, 2021, appeals of the judicial ruling were lodged by INGEMMET and MINEM. A three-judge tribunal of Peru’s Superior Court unanimously upheld the ruling in a decision reported in November 2023. American Lithium was subsequently notified that INGEMMET and MINEM have filed petitions to the Supreme Court of Peru to assume jurisdiction in the proceedings. Given the precedent of the original ruling it is hoped that the Supreme Court will not assume jurisdiction; however, there is no assurance of the outcome at this time.
