Elko, NV – March 31, 2020 – Lithium Corporation (OTCQB:LTUM) (“LTUM” or “the Company”), a North American company focused on energy metals for the growing energy storage sector and high tech industries, is pleased to announce the Company’s 25% owned subsidiary Summa, LLC (Summa) has signed the definitive agreement with 1237025 Nevada Ltd, (123 NV) wherein 123 NV can earn a 100% interest in Summa’s property in Tonopah, Nye County, Nevada, subject to a 1.00% Net Smelter Revenue interest by issuing cash and shares at predetermined intervals, and by performing work on the property.
123 NV recently issued $25,000 worth of stock, and $25,000 in cash to Summa as consideration for the signing of the agreement, and under the agreement 123 NV will pay $75,000 in cash, and $75,000 in shares annually in unequal semi-annual installments over the next five years. Additionally 123 NV must perform $1.5 million dollars worth of work on the property over five years. Summa will retain a 1.00% Net Smelter Revenue royalty on the property once 123 NV has earned its interest, however 123 NV may purchase 0.25% of this royalty for $1,500,000 and may then at its option purchase a further 0.25% of the royalty for $2,500,000. Lithium Corporation staff will continue to provide consultative services to 123 NV on an as-needed basis.
The Hughes Tonopah property features the eastern portion of the famous past-producing Tonopah mining district. Available historical data show the property contains dozens of mineralized zones consisting of epithermal quartz-calcite veins, stockworks and breccias hosted in intermediate and felsic volcanic rocks. The most significant past-producer on the property is the Belmont Mine which is reported to have produced 36.7 million ounces of silver and 428,000 ounces of gold at a silver equivalent grade of approximately 36.46 oz/t (1,250 g/t) Ag. Since mining ceased in 1929 very little modern exploration or assessment of remaining potential has been completed.
Lithium Corporation is complying with all governmental restrictions and suggestions with respect to endeavoring to limit the spread of the Corona Virus, and has restricted all but the most essential of travel at this point. However it is business as usual for the Company, and we remain committed to working through this difficult and trying period as best we can.
