Once the surveys are complete and prior to trail and drill site construction the Company will submit a Geologic Field Operations Plan to the State of Arizona for approval. Simultaneously the Company is continuing to work on the best possible solution for it's right-of-way (ROW) which requires State approval and cooperation from private landowners. The Company will issue further news releases as progress continues.

Subject to the permitting timeline, we expect this to be the first property Ameriwest drills after acquiring three lithium brine properties and two lithium clay properties in Nevada and Arizona in 2021 and 2022. Ameriwest has become one of largest lithium claim holders in Nevada with approximately 50,000 acres of mineral claims staked or acquired."
