About International Lithium Corp.
International Lithium Corp. has a significant portfolio of
projects, strong management, and a strategic partner and key
investor, Jiangxi Ganfeng Lithium Co. Ltd., ("Ganfeng Lithium") a
leading China-based lithium product manufacturer.
The Company's primary strategic focus is now on the Mariana
project in Argentina and on the Raleigh Lake project in Canada.
The Company has a strategic stake in the Mariana lithium-potash
brine project located within the renowned South American "Lithium
Belt" that is the host to the vast majority of global lithium
resources, reserves and production. The Mariana project
strategically encompasses an entire mineral rich evaporite basin,
totalling 160 square kilometres that ranks as one of the more
prospective salars or 'salt lakes' in the region. Current ownership
of the project is through a joint venture company, Litio Minera
Argentina S. A., a private company registered in Argentina, owned
82.754% by Ganfeng Lithium and 17.246% by ILC. In addition, ILC has
an option to acquire 10% in the Mariana project through a back-in
right.
The Raleigh Lake project, now consisting of 3,027 hectares of
adjoining mineral claims in Ontario, is now regarded by ILC
management as ILC's most significant project in Canada. It is 100%
owned by ILC, is not subject to any encumbrances, and is royalty
free.
Complementing the Company's lithium brine project at Mariana and
rare metal pegmatite property at Raleigh Lake, are interests in two
other rare metal pegmatite properties in Ontario, Canada known as
the Mavis Lake and Forgan Lake projects, and the Avalonia project
in Ireland, which encompasses an extensive 50-km-long pegmatite
belt.
The ownership of the Mavis Lake project is now 51% Pioneer
Resources Limited (ASX:PIO, "Pioneer") and 49% ILC. In addition,
ILC owns a 1.5% NSR on Mavis Lake. Pioneer has an option to earn an
additional 29% by sole-funding a further CAD $8.5 million
expenditures of exploration activities, at which time the ownership
will be 80% Pioneer and 20% ILC.
The Forgan Lake project will, upon Ultra Lithium meeting its
contractual requirements pursuant to its agreement with ILC, become
100% owned by Ultra Lithium (TSXV: ULI), and ILC will retain a 1.5%
NSR on Forgan Lake.
The ownership of the Avalonia project is currently 55% Ganfeng
Lithum and 45% ILC. Ganfeng Lithium has an option to earn an
additional 24% by either incurring CAD $10 million expenditures on
exploration activities or delivering a positive feasibility study
on the project, at which time the ownership will be 79% Ganfeng
Lithum and 21% ILC.
With the increasing demand for high tech rechargeable batteries
used in electric vehicles and electrical storage as well as
portable electronics, lithium has been designated "the new oil",
and is a key part of a "green tech", sustainable economy. By
positioning itself with solid strategic partners and projects with
significant resource potential, ILC aims to be one of the lithium
and battery metals resource developers of choice for investors and
to continue to build value for its shareholders.
International Lithium Corp.'s mission is to find, explore and
develop projects that have the potential to become world class
lithium, potash and rare metal deposits. A key goal is to become a
well funded company to turn that aspiration into reality.
On behalf of the Company,
John Wisbey
Chairman and CEO
