/in /by

Vancouver, BC – Ultra Lithium Inc. (TSX-V: ULI) (FSE: QFB) (“ULI” or “the Company”) has received complete assay results of the second round of sampling work carried out in December 2017 on the Salar Laguna Verde Discovery Zone in Catamarca Province, Argentina.

Assay results indicate lithium values in the range of 34.2 to 1,270 milligrams per liter (mg/L) or parts per million (ppm), magnesium values less than one ppm to 7,920 ppm, potassium 804 ppm to 15,800 ppm, and boron 65.5 to 2,190 ppm. The Laguna Verde area is marked by low magnesium to lithium ratios, in the range of zero to 10.2.

Highlights:

  • Lithium values up to 1270 ppm, potassium 15,800 ppm (1.58%), and boron up to 2,190 ppm.
  • Fourteen samples in the central part of the Salar have lithium values greater than 500 ppm.
  • Average values of lithium in all samples is 526 ppm, boron 673 ppm, magnesium 1,916 ppm, potassium 7211 ppm and sodium 86,081 ppm.
  • Average magnesium to lithium ratio is 3, a very favourable factor for shorter evaporation time and potential lower lithium carbonate production costs.

Dr. Weiguo Lang, CEO of Ultra Lithium, stated that, “We are very pleased with the success of our Argentinian exploration work to date. The Company is planning to commence geophysical surveys in the coming weeks. We will also commence evaporation process testing of lithium brines. These are the next big steps in moving the Laguna Verde Discovery Zone project forward.

A total of 36 samples were collected from surface and shallow sub-surface brines down to a depth of one meter or less. Hand tools, such as hammers, and shovels were used to break the surface salt / sediment layers to access the brines. Brine samples were collected in clean plastic bottles which were rinsed with brine before sampling. Field parameters of each sample were recorded which include: depth of water table from surface, total dissolved solids, temperature, conductivity, salinity, pH, and density. All samples were shipped to SGS Laboratories in Buenos Aires, while four duplicate samples were sent to Alex Stewart Laboratories in Jujuy, Argentina which were reported in December 22, 2017 news release. Two field blank and three field duplicate samples were also shipped to SGS as part of quality assurance and quality control purposes. SGS is a global chain of independent certified laboratories.

Ultra Lithium To Start Second Round of Exploration Program at Salar Laguna Verde Discovery Zone in Catamarca, Argentina

/in /by

Vancouver, BC – Ultra Lithium Inc. (TSX-V: ULI) (FSE: QFB) (“ULI” or “the Company”) is pleased to announce that it is starting the second round of surface sampling with focus on the Salar Laguna Verde Discovery Zone in the Province of Catamarca, Argentina. The assay results from surface sampling in this area, announced in ULI’s November 07, 2017 press release indicated one sample with lithium (Li) value of 1100 parts per million (ppm) and a magnesium to lithium ratio of less than two. The field crew plans to mobilize to the property next week. Exploratory sampling will be carried out by collecting surface brines and shallow sub-surface brines down to a depth of approximately one meter.

Further review of the assay results by the Company’s technical team indicates a strong correlation of lithium values with brine density measured in the field (See Table Below). The other controlling physical parameters are pH, total dissolved solids (TDS) and the influence of fresh water from alluvial fans in the catchment area of Laguna Verde Salar. ULI’s working model for exploration is that the potential source of lithium in the lagoon and subsurface is hydrothermal movement of lithium through a system of faults. A northwest–southeast running fault structure has been identified in the field and on satellite images which is considered a possible source of lithium concentration in this brine. This interpretation of the results will be used as a guideline for future sampling and testing work.

Ultra Lithium Receives Assay Results for Second Round of Surface Sampling in Catamarca, Argentina

/in /by

Vancouver, BC – Ultra Lithium Inc. (TSX-V: ULI) (FSE: QFB) (“ULI” or “the Company”) has received preliminary assay results from the October 2017 exploration work completed on the Laguna Verde, Archibara and Galan properties in the Province of Catamarca, Argentina.

Assay results indicate lithium values in the range of less than 1ppm to 1,100ppm, magnesium values 9.45ppm to 1,900ppm and potassium values are 20.5ppm to 14,100ppm. The Laguna Verde area is marked by low magnesium to lithium ratios, in the range of 0.9 to 9.8. The Company is currently in the process of verifying the field and lab data, and interpreting the significance of these results in the context of the Company’s exploration program. The assay results are presented in the table below.

Exploratory sampling was carried out by collecting surface brines and shallow sub-surface brines down to a depth of one meter. Hand tools, such as hammers, and shovels were used to break the surface salt / sediment layers to access the brines.

The samples were assayed at SGS Laboratories in Buenos Aires, Argentina. SGS is a global chain of independent certified laboratories. The samples were assayed by SGS method ME. 113 based on SM 3120, 23rd Edition. Brine samples were collected in clean plastic bottles which were rinsed with brine before sampling. Field parameters of each sample were recorded which include: depth of water table from surface, total dissolved solids, temperature, conductivity, salinity, pH, and density.
