The Company plans to use the aggregate net proceeds of the Offering for exploration and development of its Brazilian properties and general corporate purposes.

Blake Hylands, P.Geo, Chief Executive Officer of Lithium Ionic, commented, “We are very grateful for the ongoing support of our strategic shareholders. On the back of the recently announced robust feasibility study, royalty financing and other positive developments, this Offering will allow us to accelerate our pathway to becoming a near-term lithium producer.” 

The Offering is scheduled to close on or about June 7, 2024 and is subject to certain conditions including, but not limited to, the receipt of all necessary approvals including the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange (“TSXV”).

The securities being offered have not, nor will they be registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and may not be offered or sold within the United States or to, or for the account or benefit of, U.S. persons absent U.S. registration or an applicable exemption from the U.S. registration requirements.
