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



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.”

Southern Private Placement
As previously announced on February 7, 2017, the Company announced a non-brokered private placement of 4,000,000 units (each “Unit“) at a purchase price of $0.25 per Unit, for gross proceeds of up to $1,000,000. Each Unit will consist of one (1) common share (“Common Share“) of the Company and one (1) non-transferable share purchase warrant (“Warrant“).

Each Warrant will entitle the holder to acquire one (1) Common Share at an exercise price of $0.35 for a period of 18 months from the closing date of the Private Placement. In the event that the Company’s common shares trade at a closing price greater than $0.50 per share for a period of 10 consecutive trading days at any time after the closing date, the Company may accelerate the expiry date of the Warrants by giving notice to the holders thereof and in such case the Warrants will expire on the 30th day after the date hereafter referred to as the (“Forced Conversion Feature“) on which such notice is given by the Company.

The private placement is subject to TSX Venture Exchange approval. There will be a hold period of four months and one day on all securities issued under this financing.

About the Cruz Property
Through its partner Millennial Lithium Corp., the Company has executed a formal option agreement with Proyecto Pastos Grandes S.A. (“PPG SA”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Millennial, to be granted an option to acquire 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 2,500 hectares in the Pocitos salar basin in Salta Province, Argentina, and lies 11 kilometres south of ADY Resources Limited’s lithium brine resource in the Salar del Rincón Basin.
The Cruz property is adjacent to the Rincon volcanic center that defines the southern limit of the Rincon salar basin, where ADY Resources Limited is extracting lithium brine, and the northern limit of the Pocitos salar basin, where the Cruz property is located. 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; note that these results are considered historical and cannot be confirmed under NI 43-101 standards.

Millennial Lithium Reports Exploration Results from Lincoln Property and Common Shares Commence Trading on OTCQB

October 12, 2016 

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Oct. 12, 2016) - Millennial Lithium Corp. (TSX VENTURE:ML), ("Millennial" or the "Company") reports it has completed an initial phase of exploration on the Company's Lincoln Lithium Property in Nevada (the "Lincoln Property"). The Lincoln Property covers an area of 3200 acres of placer claims in the Big Smoky Valley, Nevada.
The program consisted of drilling 12 shallow auger holes spaced along one line across the salar. Sediment and water samples from each hole were collected and sent to Western Environmental Testing Laboratory in Sparks, Nev., which is a U.S. EPA-accredited (Environmental Protection Agency) independent laboratory. The samples were analyzed for lithium, potassium, boron and magnesium using standard methods for the examination of water and waste water, on-line edition, methods for determination of organic compounds in drinking water, EPA-600/4-79-020, and test methods for evaluation of solid waste, physical/chemical methods (SW846), third edition. The laboratory used its own quality control and quality assurance protocols for sample analysis. Results are as follows:

In addition to these early findings, management has reviewed assay results from recent drilling activity by others on adjoining ground which report magnesium to lithium ratios far exceeding acceptable concentrations. As a result of the Lincoln Property's low surface lithium concentrations and the neighbouring magnesium-lithium geochemistry, Millennial has decided to cease any further exploration on the Lincoln Property and will not be paying any further property payments or rents due to maintain the property. Millennial will focus its exploration efforts on its Pastos Grandes and Cauchari East lithium assets in Argentina.
Millennial's shares are now listed for trading on the OTCQB markets in the United States under the symbol MLNLF. The Company's shares will also continue to trade on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange and the TSX Venture Exchange. The Company believes that greater visibility will be created with multiple listings/quotations platforms and will allow for a much larger potential shareholder base. Investors can find real-time quotes and market information on the OTC Markets website.
Trading on the OTC markets does not involve the issuance of new common shares of the Company or any other securities. The common shares of the Company that are currently issued and outstanding, and trading on the TSX-V and Frankfurt Stock Exchange, may now also be traded through the OTC markets.
Millennial has granted an aggregate of 1,550,000 stock options (the "Options") to certain officers, directors, consultants and employees of the Company. The Options have a term of 5 years and are exercisable at a price of $1.65 per common share. The Options are subject to the acceptance of the TSX Venture Exchange.

Millennial Lithium Options Cauchari East Lithium Project in Argentina

September 26, 2016

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Sept. 26, 2016) - Millennial Lithium Corp. (TSX VENTURE:ML), ("Millennial" or the "Company") is pleased to report it has entered into an option agreement (the "Agreement") to acquire 100% of the Cauchari East Lithium Project (the "Project") in Jujuy Province, Argentina from Fernando Erik Villarroel Alcocer (the "Vendor"), subject to the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange. The Project is strategically located within the "Lithium Triangle," which is host to some of the world's largest lithium resources.
Cauchari East covers an area of 2,990 hectares on the eastern side of the Cauchari-Olaroz Salar, adjacent to Orocobre's producing Salar de Olaroz and Lithium Americas Corp.'s advanced stage Cauchari-Olaroz. The property displays geological characteristics common with the deeper, buried salar-type mineralization that has been proven for both of those projects. Gravity and magneto-telluric (MT) survey profiles to the south of the property reported in the Orocobre Technical Report, and VES survey results to the north of the property as reported by Lithium Americas both indicate that the brine-hosting aquifers extend beneath the Cauchari East Project.
Since 2009, considerable work has been completed in the Cauchari Salar by Orocobre and Lithium Americas, much of which is detailed in environmental reports and NI43-101 technical reports on the salar. In additional to the geophysics surveys, the reports disclose significant geochemical data confirming that brine resources with high lithium concentrations extend to the eastern boundaries of the basin, in the direction of the Cauchari East Project. Lithium enrichment in this area of the Cauchari basin appears to be related to the deep structure that hosts the Cerro Negro volcano and which bounds the Cauchari East property along its western limit.
Millennial plans to apply its rapid development strategy to the Cauchari East property. Pending government and communities approvals, the Company will rapidly advance through geophysics to drilling in order to make a quick assessment of resources, and as warranted add Cauchari East as another production unit to the "pipeline" of their lithium production assets.
Under the terms of the Agreement, Millennial can acquire a 100% interest in the Project, royalty and easement free, in consideration of the following payments, share issuances and work commitments:
(a) to earn a 50% interest in the Property:
(i) pay to the Optionor $250,000 upon execution of this Agreement;
(ii) issue to the Optionor $500,000 worth of Millennial common shares within ten (10) business days of the date of TSX Venture Exchange approval (the "Approval Date") of this Agreement;
(iii) pay to the Optionor an additional $750,000 on or before the first anniversary of the Approval Date;
(iv) issue to the Optionor an additional $1,000,000 worth of Millennial common shares on or before the first anniversary of the Approval Date; and
(v) make $2,000,000 in Expenditures on or before the first anniversary of the Approval Date unless another date is agreed by the parties.
(b) to earn the remaining 50% interest in the Property, make the following additional payments, share issuances and Expenditures:
(i) pay to the Optionor $1,000,000 on or before the third anniversary date of the Approval Date;
(ii) issue to the Optionor $1,000,000 worth of Millennial common shares on or before the third anniversary date of the Approval Date; and
(iii) make an additional $2,000,000 in Expenditures on or before the third anniversary of the Approval Date.
Graham Harris, Chairman of Millennial, states "Adding Cauchari East compliments our strategy to acquire and advance multiple properties in the Lithium Triangle . Cauchari East, gives us another project that is drill ready and based on the work of Orocobre and others, provides us an excellent opportunity for early success".
This news release has been reviewed by Brent Butler, director, qualified person as that term is defined in National Instrument 43-101.
