E3 Lithium Outlines Lithium Results from Second Well Demonstrating up to 82 mg/L

Canada NewsWire

CALGARY, AB, Jan. 4, 2023 /CNW/ - E3 LITHIUM LTD. (TSXV: ETL) (FSE: OW3) (OTCQX: EEMMF), Alberta's leading lithium developer and extraction technology innovator, is pleased to share that the sample results from its second well are consistent with the lithium concentrations from its first well and the historic results across the Leduc Reservoir.

The second well, located approximately 20 kilometres south of the first well in the Clearwater Project Area in the Bashaw District, was drilled in the summer of 2022. Based on brine samples retrieved from three zones, the P501 lithium concentration from E3 Lithium's (E3) second well is 74 mg/L. Please see Figure 1 for the zone intervals and concentration results.

"The consistency of lithium across our reservoir as demonstrated through our first two wells is critical to the confidence in our understanding of this resource and our plans for upgrading to Measured and Indicated," said Chris Doornbos, President and CEO of E3 Lithium. "The third and final well associated with our 2022 drill program was repurposed from an existing oil and gas well; the sampling program was completed in December with concentration results anticipated soon."  

The brine samples were analyzed by a third-party certified laboratory, following independently verified sample acquisition procedures that maintained a strict chain of custody, in accordance with The Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum (CIM) guidelines.

Read E3's November 10, 2022 news release for the concentration results of its first well.

174 mg/L is the P50 result from E3 Lithium's second well. A P50 estimate indicates there is a 50% probability that quantities recovered will equal or exceed the P50 value.
