Elko, Nevada--(Newsfile Corp. - July 11, 2024) - Lithium Corporation (OTCQB: LTUM) ("LTUM" or "the Company"), a mineral exploration company focused on energy metals for the North American battery supply chain, is pleased to update investors on exploration activities across the Company's properties.

In early April 2024, Lithium Corporation introduced the newly staked Las Pilas claim block prospective for hosting fluorspar mineralization. Las Pilas is located proximal to the past producing Rock Candy fluorspar mine in the Greenwood Mining Division, in southern British Columbia, Canada. The claim was expanded in May, and again lately when the Company added another two claims, more than doubling the size of the original claim. Today, Las Pilas total holdings are approximately 11,068 acres (4,478 hectares) of highly prospective mining lands. Geochemical and geological work is ongoing on the property with the first phase of stream geochemical sampling recently completed.

Fluorine and its source material fluorspar are classified as 'critical minerals' by Governments in the United States, Canada, EU, and Australia. There are no known substitutes for fluorspar derivatives in cornerstone clean energy technologies. It is found in all three main parts of an electric battery: cathode, electrolyte and anode, is essential to processing silicon vital for solar panels, and fluoropolymer membrane technology is at the heart of the hydrogen economy.

Additionally, generative exploration is ongoing focused on copper and rare earth elements (REE) in the contiguous western United States. A number of prospective sites have been visited, sampled and evaluated over the past several months in an effort to uncover previously undiscovered, and/or poorly understood mineralization of merit.

Finally, at Lithium Corp.'s Fish Lake Valley (FLV) brine project in Nevada, Optionee Morella Corporation (ASX: 1MC), completed a study using recently released helicopter borne high resolution magnetic and radiometric survey data ("GeoDAWN") from the US Geological Survey (USGS) and US Department of Energy. Coordinated with this effort was the collection of airborne light detection and ranging (LIDAR) data (conducted through the USGS 3DEP Program) that yielded detailed surface topographic models of the terrain over a similar extent spanned by the geophysical surveys.

This data complements Morella's interpretation of the 2D seismic reflection survey results in the southern area of Fish Lake Valley. Combined data sets indicate the FLV project area has strong similarities to the rift basin and structures hosting lithium brines at Albemarle's Silver Peak lithium mine in Clayton Valley, 35 kilometres east. Albemarle's Silver Peak operation is the longest running lithium mine in the United States. Details, including next steps for advancing the Fish Lake Valley project, can be found in the Morella Corp. news release.

James Brown, Managing Director of Morella Corp., Optionee on two Lithium Corp. prospects, is currently transitioning out of the role of Interim CEO, Sayona Mining Limited (ASX: SYA), with the appointment of Mr. Lucas Dow as Managing Director and CEO. Sayona Mining's flagship operation, North American Lithium (NAL) is a partnership with Piedmont Lithium. It is the largest source of hard rock lithium in North America. As Interim CEO, James Brown oversaw NAL's successful on-target, on-budget ramp up and achievement of monthly production records. His extensive operational and development experience in the mining and exploration industries are widely regarded throughout the industry. Lithium Corporation welcomes renewed interest by Morella Corp. in their role as Optionee on Lithium Corp.'s prospects, as Sayona leadership changes allow Mr. Brown to dedicate all of his resources to advancing Morella Corp.'s interest in these properties. James Brown sits on the Board of Directors of Lithium Corporation and Sayona Mining.
