Nevada Lithium Projects
The Company owns a 100% interest in 154 mineral claimslocated in Elko County, Nevada. The Nevada North Lithium Project is in the Granite Range southeast of Jackpot, Nevada, about73 km north-northeast of Wells, Nevada. The target is a lithium claydeposit in volcanic tuff and tuffaceous sediments of the JarbidgeRhyolite package. The project area was first identified in publicdomain stream sediment geochemical data with follow up sedimentsampling and geologic reconnaissance returning assay results forlithium ranging from 29.1 ppm to 5,120 ppm. Significant resultsincluded 89 samples outlining a highly anomalous zone containing samplepoints greater than 1,000 ppm lithium . Currently, the zone of highly anomalouslithium values extends about 1,700 meters east-west in two bands eachabout 300 to 400 meters wide. The anomalous values appear to be insoils developed on airfall or water lain rhyolitic tuff overlain bywelded ash flow tuff.
In addition, the Company has a Property OptionAgreement to earn an undivided 80% interest in 16 mineral claims,comprising 640 acres located within Nevada's San Emidio Desert, knownas the GaltProperty .

Results ofaqua regia leaching of the samples show 68 to 852 parts per millionlithium (mean 365 ppm), 5.3 to 201 ppm cesium (mean 72 ppm) and 35 to 377 ppm rubidium (mean 180 ppm). Resultsfrom two seven-foot-deep auger holes show lithium, cesium, andrubidium concentrations in the range of 143.5 to 773 ppm Li, 56.8 to102.5 ppm Cs and 155 to 272 Rb.
