NetworkNewsWire Announces Publication on Opportunity for Lithium Miners Amid Increasing Demand, Exacerbating Feedstock

NEW YORK, June 22, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- via NetworkWire — NetworkNewsWire ("NNW"), a multifaceted financial news and publishing company, today announces the publication of an editorial featuring Lithium Chile Inc. (TSX-V:LITH) (OTCQB:LTMCF), a client of NNW focused on advancing a lithium property portfolio consisting of 152,900 hectares covering sections of 14 salars and one laguna complex in Chile.

In previously announced results of a transient electromagnetic survey (TEM) covering 25 square kilometers of the Ollague project, Lithium Chile identified multiple large high-priority targets and a comprehensive sampling program revealed near-surface lithium brines assaying up to 1,140mg/L of lithium.  In comparison, lithium concentration between 190 to 200 mg/L of lithium is needed for production in the United States.

Lithium Chile acquired its assets for just $3 per hectare. Prospective lithium parcels in Chile currently change hands around $1,500 per hectare, and proven tracts command more than $10,000 per hectare.  Lithium Chile relied on the vast in-country experience and skills of Terry Walker, the company’s chief geologist and VP of exploration, to acquire large tracts of prime lithium-bearing properties. Using a 1970s French technical report overlaid on a national database of water well hydrology and water chemistry, Walker meticulously matched that information with an extensive lands claim database. Lithium Chile subsequently secured the best salars in proximity to the highest lithium concentrations and the closest to needed infrastructure.  The result could turn out to be among the most promising and lucrative lithium-rich land packages in recent history.
