VOLT LITHIUM ANNOUNCES TRANSITION TO PURE-PLAY LITHIUM DEVELOPER WITH TERMINATION OF OPTION AGREEMENTS FOR COPPER ASSETS
Volt Lithium Corp. has terminated two existing option agreements related to copper assets that were part of its predecessor company's portfolio and were not being pursued as part of Volt's strategy. With the termination of these agreements, Volt's asset base has been streamlined and offer investors exposure to a growing, pure play lithium development and technology company aiming to be North America's first commercial producer of lithium hydroxide and lithium carbonates from oilfield brine.
Details of the terminated option agreements
The two terminated option agreements include: (i) the option to acquire a 100-per-cent interest in the Stateline property, pursuant to an option agreement among Cloudbreak Discovery PLC, Cloudbreak Discovery (Canada) Ltd., Tarsis Resources U.S. Inc., Alianza Minerals Ltd. and Volt dated Feb. 9, 2022; and (ii) the option to acquire a 100-per-cent interest in the Silver King property, pursuant to an option agreement among Goodsprings Exploration LLC, Robert Cole, Lori Cole and 1269280 B.C.

The terms of the Stateline agreement were announced in the company's press release dated Feb. 10, 2022.
