Southern Lithium Acquires Additional Claims to Bring Total to 90.3 sq. km in the Pocitos Salar Basin in Salta Province, Argentina

PRESS RELEASE

May 13, 2017

VANCOUVER, Canada –- Southern Lithium Corp. (TSX-V: SNL) (FSE: SL5) (“Southern” or “the Company”) is pleased to announce it has acquired a seventy percent (70%) interest in two additional claim blocks in the Pocitos Salar Basin in Salta Province, Argentina with partner Proyecto Pastos Grandes S.A. (“PPG SA”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Millennial Lithium Corp. (TSX- V: ML).

The Cruz Property is contiguous with the south end of ADY Resources Limited’s (“ADY”) Salar del Rincon project, which has Probable Reserves of 1.2 million tonnes Lithium Carbonate Equivalent (“LCE”) and Measured and Indicated Resources of 3.5 million tonnes Lithium Carbonate Equivalent (“LCE”). ADY project economics consist of ungeared after-tax 9% NPV of $1.36 billion with a payback period of 4.13 years from start of commercial production. Life of mine is approximately 24.5 years with average annual production 50,000 tonnes LCE per annum.

The acquisition costs will be covered under the terms of the formal option agreement dated November 17, 2016 (the “Definitive Agreement”) with Millennial Lithium Corp. Claim one is the Poci 02 and encompasses 3,263 hectares (8,063 acres) and the second claim is the Poci 03 and encompasses 3,264 hectares (8,065 acres).

To earn the additional 10% interest (for an aggregate total 80% interest) in the Property, the Company must, prior to that date which is 6 months after the third anniversary of the Definitive Agreement, complete a bankable feasibility study on the Property.

The transaction remains subject to certain conditions, and includes the final granting of the claims will be subject to approval of Environmental Impact Report (“EIR”). The activities covered in the EIR include geophysics surveys, drilling and future well testing as well as flow rate test programs, and onsite evaporation and processing trials, in addition to infrastructure development as required. This includes roads and drill pads, a camp and facilities for the test evaporation pans and preliminary process testing.

Larry Segerstrom, President of Southern Lithium commented, “Pocitos Salar Basin remains our highest priority lithium target in Argentina. The additional claims essentially triple the property’s size and brings us up against ADY’s advanced Rincon project. With a minimal amount of work, we will have excellent targets for drill testing in 2017.”

About the Cruz Property

Through our partner Millennial Lithium Corp. (TSX.V:ML) (FSE:A3N2) (OTCQB:MLNLF), the Company has executed a formal option agreement with Proyecto Pastos Grandes S.A. (“PPG SA”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Millennial, for the right to earn up to an eighty percent (80%) interest in the PPG SA’s Cruz Property in the Pocitos Salar Basin in Salta Province, Argentina.

The Cruz Property is located in the heart of South America’s Lithium Triangle (northern Chile, northwestern Argentina and southwest Bolivia). The property encompasses 9,027 hectares (22,306 acres) in the Pocitos Salar Basin in Salta Province, Argentina, and is contiguous with and immediately south of ADY Resources Limited’s lithium brine resource in the Salar del Rincón Basin.

The Cruz Property includes the central portion of the Rincon volcanic center which forms the northern limit of the Pocitos Salar Basin and the southern limit of the Rincon Salar Basin, where ADY Resources Limited is extracting lithium brine. Both properties lie along the structural belt that hosts the important lithium resources of the region, and at the junction of a large north-south fault system and the northwest-southeast megastructure along which lies the Rincon volcano, the possible source of the lithium brine in both salar basins.

The 60-kilometre long Pocitos Salar Basin has previously only been drill tested with a shallow 12-hole program in the 1970s by an Argentinean government agency “Direccion General de Fabricaciones Militares”. To date, this is the only confirmed exploration drilling conducted in the Pocitos basin. The hole that produced the best results is near the southeast edge of the Cruz property boundary, and averaged 417 parts per million lithium. Although these results are considered historical and have not been verified by the Company’s QP, the Company considers these results relevant to the future exploration of the property.

Southern Lithium's Geophysical Survey Shows Large Brine Target at its Cruz Property, Salta Province, Argentina

PRESS RELEASE                                                                                                   February 21, 2017

VANCOUVER, Canada – – Southern Lithium Corp.  (TSX-V: SNL FSE: SL5)  ("Southern" or "the Company") is pleased to announce that we have been informed by Millennial Lithium Corp. (the “Optionor”), that it has received favorable results from a recently completed ground geophysics program that was previously announced (February 2, 2017) at its Cruz Property (the "Property"), located in the Pocitos salar basin in Salta Province, Argentina.

In early February, the companies completed a Transient Electromagnetic Survey (“TEM”) survey that was carried out by Quantec Geoscience Argentina S.A., (“Quantec”) of Mendoza, Argentina. The TEM covered a total of 16 points covering 20.25 square kilometres, on a 4500 metre-by 4500 metre (m) grid, at 1500 meters spacing. 

The TEM results show a continuous north-south trending conductive unit over a distance of more than 6 kilometres.  In comparison to other salar basins in the region, highly conductive readings generally indicate a high content of brine.  Salar brines in the “Lithium Triangle” of Argentina, Bolivia and Chile typically contain high levels of lithium.

The spacing of the survey points leads to an interpretation of conjoined oval-shaped areas underlain by brine. The overall basin however is shaped by strong north-south and northwest southeast faulting. Highly conductive readings have generally been found to indicate a high content of lithium brine in most other salar basins in the area. 

In the central core of the property the indications of brine appear as shallow as 30 metres, below a compact near surface halite layer and to a depth of 250 metres.  Due to the highly conductive nature of the anomaly, survey readings were limited to a maximum 250 metres.  

The results of the geophysics survey are interpreted to be very positive, suggesting a large area of brine at shallow depths and extending to over 250 metres of depth. A 2-hole drilling program is planned to commence on approval of the addendum to the existing exploration environmental impact report, anticipated in March.

Company CEO Clive Massey states: “We are extremely encouraged with the results of the geophysics and we are pleased with the level of participation investors have shown in the recently announced Private Placement. This financing will be another significant step forward for Southern as it continues to build shareholder value and execute on raising the funding necessary to accelerate the advancement of the exploration efforts at the Cruz Property in Argentina."

Millennial’s COO Iain Scarr states: “The results of the geophysics program thus far appears to confirm our assertion that the Pocitos basin is highly likely to host significant quantities of lithium brine. Its proximity to other large resources, the structural setting, and known chemical indicators are reinforced by these results in justifying and targeting exploration drilling. We are very encouraged by this program, and are grateful to Quantec Argentina for their quality work and thoughtful interpretation. Our plan now is to commence the drilling program as soon as permitting allows. We look forward to reporting further results.”

Update on Southern Lithium’s Cruz Property, Salta Province, Argentina

PRESS RELEASE                                                                                                     February 2, 2017

VANCOUVER, Canada -- Southern Lithium Corp.  (TSX-V: SNL FSE: SL5)  ("Southern" or "the Company") is pleased to provide  an update for the lithium exploration program  announced (December 6, 2016), to be executed at  its Cruz Property (the "Property"), located in Salta Province, Argentina.

The Company is waiting for the review process of the previously submitted application to be completed and the issuance of the permit to drill the property in first quarter of 2017. While waiting for the permit to be issued, the Company has initiated a geophysical survey that will enable the Company to delineate bodies of brine and identify drill targets.

The Phase I lithium brine exploration program will consist of drilling one core hole at two separate locations in the salar to establish stratigraphic and porosity data, and for brine extraction and evaporation trials. At both sites, an HQ core hole will test the salar to a depth of 350m, or deeper if warranted to ensure that any brine bodies identified by the geophysical survey in the salar basin are sampled. In the deeper parts of some salar basins, coarse sediments that were deposited early during the filling of the basins have the potential to be excellent brine aquifers.

During the drilling, samples for chemical analysis will be collected using a drive point system, which employs an in-situ sampling tool to collect brine samples from discrete vertical intervals. The brine will be tested on-site to determine density, conductivity and pH. Chemical analysis will be will be completed at a specialized, certified laboratory.

After drilling the core holes, down-hole geophysics will be used to target potentially productive zones. Subsequently, each hole will be cleaned and fitted with slotted casing and a gravel filter for possible future use as a monitoring well if results indicate that an adjacent pumping test well be drilled.

The program will be managed on the ground in Argentina through its joint venture partner Millennial Lithium Corp. Millennial has engaged HIDROTEC S.R.L., a Salta-based drilling company with extensive recent experience in drilling and testing salar-hosted lithium brines, to complete the Phase I drilling program. Millennial has engaged Mike Rosko of Montgomery and Associates, Inc. a US-based hydrogeological consultancy to provide program guidance and act as the Company's qualified person for reporting results.

Drilling Progress At Pastos Grandes

November 22, 2016 05:00 ET

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Nov. 22, 2016) - Millennial Lithium Corp. (TSX VENTURE:ML)(OTCQB:MLNLF) ("Millennial" or the "Company") reports on progress with the Phase I lithium brine drilling program at its Pastos Grandes Project in Salta, Argentina. The first drill hole of the current drilling program was successfully completed on time and within the cost target. The size of the brine aquifer and the composition of the sediments exceed expectations and the density of the brine recovered was favorable. Accordingly, pumping test well drilling has already begun.

The first drill hole, PGMW-16-01 was completed to a depth of 192 metres having encountered three brine aquifers over a total 94.5 meters (m), from surface to 13m, 19.5m to 66m, and 157m to the bottom of the hole. Originally planned to test depth to 350 metres, the hole was terminated in favor of completing a larger bore rotary hole that will more effectively penetrate the loose sediments of the lower aquifer. Results to date in terms of permissive aquifers and brine density are encouraging enough to proceed with the adjacent production-scale pumping test well. A second, larger drill has been mobilized to the site and has begun drilling PGPW-16-02 in readiness for a 24-hour pumping test.

VP of Development and Exploration, Iain Scarr states, "We are very encouraged with the drilling to date. In addition to identifiable brine saturated aquifers in the recent shallow sediments, the older deeper and coarser sediments include what appears to be either a brine-saturated unconsolidated sand or a major structure with free-flowing brine. Subsequent drill sites and in-fill drilling will be used to determine the extent of these encouraging conditions aerially and at depth."

Brine samples were collected down hole using a drive-point and we will employ a packer system targeting specific horizons as the hole is being completed as a monitoring well. Initial field testing of brine recovered from the aquifers at a density of 1.22g/cm3 is very promising. Brine from the packer testing and pumping tests will be used for field trials to validate the calculations for precipitation sequencing and lithium recovery, which will be used for pond sizing and conceptual design.

Sampling is being conducted in accordance with CIM guidelines for brine resource evaluation, with an appropriate QAQC program for ensuring accuracy and repeatability of the analytical results. Results will be reported promptly as laboratory analytical results are validated.

Proyecto Pastos Grandes, S.A., Millennial's Argentina subsidiary has engaged Alex Stewart Laboratories of Mendoza, Argentina as the primary analytical provider. The laboratory has extensive experience with lithium brine analyses and is certified under ISO 17025, and in Alex Stewart's case, specifically for determination of lithium and potassium in liquid brines by use of ICP-OES.

This news release has been reviewed by Iain Scarr, VP of Development and Exploration of the Company and a qualified person as that term is defined in National Instrument 43-101.

Millennial Signs Letter of Intent to Option its Cruz Property to Southern Lithium Corp.

November 03, 2016 

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Nov. 3, 2016) - Millennial Lithium Corp. (TSX VENTURE:ML) ("Millennial" or the "Company") reports that its wholly owned Argentine subsidiary, Proyecto Pastos Grandes S.A. ("PPG SA") has entered into a letter of intent (the "LOI") with Southern Lithium Corp. (TSX VENTURE:SNL) ("Southern") whereby, upon execution of a definitive agreement (the "Definitive Agreement") Southern will be granted the option to acquire up to an eighty (80%) percent interest in and to the Company's Cruz Property in the Pocitos salar basin in Salta Province, Argentina.

Terms of the LOI:

The LOI, dated effective October 31, 2016, calls for PPG SA and Southern to enter into a Definitive Agreement on or before November 10, 2016.

To earn a seventy (70%) interest in the Cruz Property, Southern must:

a.    pay a US$150,000 non-refundable deposit to PPG SA (which has been paid);

b.    pay an additional US$50,000 non-refundable deposit to PPG SA on execution of the Definitive Agreement;

c.    on closing of the Definitive Agreement, issue to PPG SA or Millennial (at Millennial's option) US$100,000 worth of common shares (the "Southern Shares") of Southern with the Southern Shares being valued at the same price per share as a private placement (the "Private Placement") Southern is expected to announce concurrently or shortly after the announcement of the LOI;

d.    on closing of the first tranche of the Private Placement or November 30, 2016 (whichever is earlier) place in a joint exploration account the sum of US$500,000 (the "Exploration Funds");

e.    make US$500,000 of exploration expenditures (the "Exploration Expenditures") on or before October 1, 2017;

f.     pay to PPG SA the sum of US$1,000,000 on or before October 1, 2017; and

g.    pay to PPG SA the sum of US$1,000,000 on or before October 1, 2018.

((a) to (g) being, collectively, the "Option Exercise Price").

The LOI calls for the Definitive Agreement to contain the following terms:

a.    that PPG SA is expected to act as operator on the Property until the Exploration Expenditures are made upon which time Southern may assume operating responsibility;

b.    that Southern can earn an additional ten (10%) of the Cruz Property by completing, on or before the date that is three years and six months from the date of the Definitive Agreement, a bankable commercial feasibility study of the Cruz Property; and

c.    additional terms and conditions customary to an option agreement in the resource industry including terms governing the planning of Exploration Expenditures.

The Cruz Property was acquired by PPG SA under the terms of an option agreement (the "Underlying Option Agreement ") dated effective October 11, 2016 although fully executed after that date. The Underlying Option Agreement is, for Millennial, an exempt transaction not subject to Exchange review under the Exchange's Policy 5.3. The Underlying Option Agreement provides that the Company can acquire up to a one-hundred (100%) interest in the Cruz Property from the vendor. The Company intends to use funds from the Option Exercise Price to fund its exercise of the option under the Underlying Option Agreement.

About the Cruz Property:

The 2,500 hectare Cruz Property lies at the north end of the Pocitos salar basin in Salta Province, Argentina. The Cruz Property is at the junction of a large north-south fault system and the northwest-southeast "megastructure" along which lies the Rincon volcano, the possible source of the Rincon salar lithium brine occurrences in the Rincon salar basin immediately north of the Pocitos salar basin.

The 60 kilometre long Pocitos salar basin has been the subject of surface sampling by several groups in the past. In the 1970's a government agency made a single shallow drill hole in the Pocitos salar basin. To the Company's knowledge, that drilling is the only exploration drilling to date and the results of that drilling cannot be confirmed under NI 43-101 standards for exploration applicable today. A review by the Company of recent samplings in the Pocitos salar basin tend to show higher lithium concentration along the deep faults in the basin, leading to the possibility, which would have to be confirmed with further exploration, that the faults could be conduits for lithium-bearing fluids emitted by the northern volcanic center.

The LOI is conditional upon its approval by the TSX Venture Exchange.

This news release has been reviewed by Iain Scarr, VP of Development and Exploration of the Company and a qualified person as that term is defined in National Instrument 43-101.
