Alix Acquires Fish Lake Lithium Brine Property



Vancouver, British Columbia (FSCwire) - ALIX RESOURCES CORP. (“Alix” or the “Company”) (AIX-TSX:V) (37N–FRANKFURT) is pleased to announce the acquisition of the Fish Lake Lithium brine property (“Fish Lake Property” or the “Property”) located about 250 kms SSE of Reno, Nevada,  from arms-length vendors.

 

The Fish Lake lithium property comprises 12 unpatented placer claims located south of, and adjacent to, Menika Mining Ltd.’s (MML-TSX:V) property in Fish Lake Valley, Esmeralda County, Nevada. The Property has excellent access and logistics, with all-weather gravel roads from Highways 264 and 265. The village of Dyer is approximately 20 kms to the south and the town of Tonopah, the nearest full service center, approximately 75 km to the east.

 

The Fish Lake property is located approximately 33 kms North-West of the Silver Peak lithium mine in the Clayton Valley, owned and operated by Albemarle Corporation (NYSE: ALB), which has produced lithium minerals from brines continuously since 1966. The Fish Lake Valley has the potential to host lithium brines similar to Clayton Valley, sourced from lithium enriched Tertiary rhyolitic tuffs or ash flow tuffs accumulated in a basinal environment.

 

The Fish Lake Valley is a high elevation basin with low precipitation, with elevations of 1,200 meters, compared to about elevation of 400 meters for Clayton Valley. Other companies actively exploring in the Fish Valley include Menika Mining Ltd. (in a joint venture with Lithium Corporation) and Nevada Sunrise Ltd. (NEV-TSX:V), on their Atlantis lithium property.

 

Fish Lake Valley was the site of borax mining during the 1870s by two companies, 'Griffing & Nyman's' and 'Pacific Borax Works. The Company’s property covers remnants of an old borax mining operation (possibly Pacific Borax).

 

President and CEO Michael England commented, "With the addition of two lithium projects recently, the Jackpot property in Ontario, and the Fish Lake property in Nevada, Alix has taken great strides in expanding its lithium portfolio. We are pleased to be advised and assisted by Aurora Geosciences Ltd., in the advancement of the Fish Lake property. Alix now has lithium projects in Mexico, U.S.A., and Canada and will continue to seek and, if warranted, acquire quality lithium assets for its growing portfolio.”

 

Terms of the agreement call for Alix to issue 200,000 shares and pay $20,000 USD on the 12 month anniversary and grant a half percent NSR of which the Company can purchase half back at any time for $500,000 USD.

 

This transaction is subject to TSX Venture approval.

The Company’s Joint Venture partner on the Electra Project is global lithium developer Lithium Australia NL, whom are developing the Sileach™ processing approach for recovering lithium from silicate minerals including spodumene and mica.
