                         ALDEVER ACQUIRES MILLER'S PLAYA LITHIUM PROJECT IN
                                    BIG SMOKY VALLEY, NEVADA

February 11, 2016

Aldever Resources Inc. (ALD--TSXV) (ALDVF--OTCQB) (17G1--Frankfurt) is pleased to announce that it has
entered into an agreement an arms' length vendor to acquire a 100% interest in the Miller's Playa Lithium Project,
comprised of 1,920 acres (777Ha) of contiguous placer claims, located in the Big Smoky Valley, Esmeralda County,
Nevada. The Big Smoky Valley is located immediately nort h of the Clayton Valley, home to Albemarle's Silver Peak
Lithium Mine (in continuous operation since 1967), and is where Pure Energy recently identified a NI43-101
compliant inferred resource of 816,000 metric tonnes of lithium carbonate equivalent (LCE)* at a cut-off of 20mg/L
in brine. (*Technical Report (2015) Spanjers, MS. PG.)

The Miller's Playa Project is located east of ground held by Ultra Lithium, and is ~40km north of the Silver Peak
mine. The principal target at the Miller's Playa Project is a large northeast trending gravity low anomaly which is
suggestive of an in-filled basin. The project directly adjoins Unity Energy Corp's Miller's Crossing Project to the
south. The Big Smoky Valley was investigated with regional reverse circulation ("RC") d rilling in 1979 by the United
States Geological Survey (USGS) and anomalous lithium values were encountered in the basin sediments. The
quality and concentrations of lithium brines discovered in the Clayton Valley may be present in the Big Smoky
Valley.

Tesla Motors, which in September of 2015 signed an off-take agreement with Pure Energy, is driving the current
lithium exploration boom in Nevada. Tesla is building a lithium-ion battery factory, called the Gigafactory, just
outside of Sparks, Nevada, which is scheduled to be operational in 2016/17. The Miller's Playa Project is located
some 225 km SE of the Gigafactory site.

Under the terms of the agreement, the Company can earn a 100% interest in the claims by issuing to the vendor
2,700,000 common shares within 5 days of TSX Venture Exchange approval. The Company is also obligated to
make cash payments of $50,000 within 18 months and $150,000 within 36 months of TSX Venture Exchange
Approval. A 1% Gross Overriding Royalty ("GORR") has also been granted to the vendor, of which  one-half% can be
purchased by the Company for $1,000,000. This transaction is subject to TSX Venture Exchange approval.

About Lithium in Nevada

Lithium is a scarce and technologically important element produced primarily from brines and pegmatites.
Although it is a non-renewable resource, it is used in conjunction with renewable energy technologies and hybrid
automobiles, primarily in the form of Li-ion batteries, currently the most widely applied battery technology in
many electronic devices. The consumption of lithium carbonate is on the rise and so far global production has kept
pace with demand.

Located in the Range Province in southern Nevada, the Big Smoky Valley, which is approximately 3km wide and
14km long, is an internally drained, fault bounded and closed basin. Geological modeling suggests that lithium-rich
brines have been transported and deposited in the both the Clayton and Big Smoky valleys since the Pleistocene
era. The primary exploration model is to identify and map basins with ground gravity surveys and evaluate the
 chemistry of salts and sediments therein with RC or rotary-mud drilling. In the later stages of exploration,
downhole geophysics and seismic reflection surveys are also utilized to define lithium bearing aquifers.
