Ultra Lithium Signs Agreement to Acquire Forgan Lake Lithium Property in Northwestern Ontario
12 September 2018 - 3:09AM
Ultra Lithium Inc. (TSX-V: ULI) (“Ultra Lithium” or “the Company”)
is pleased to announce that it has entered into an agreement with
International Lithium Corp. (TSX-V: ILC) to acquire 100% interest
in the Forgan Lake Lithium property, consisting of approximately
256 hectares land in 16 units located in the Thunder Bay Mining
District in Northwestern Ontario, Canada.
The Forgan Lake property is comprised of one legacy
claim TB4244103 (converted to 18 cell claims and two boundary
claims as of April 10, 2018 by the Ontario Ministry of Northern
Development and Mines) located adjacent to the Lucky Lake claim
block on the northwestern part of Ultra Lithium’s Georgia Lake
property. Historical work on the property was first carried out by
Lun-Echo Gold Mines Limited during the 1955-61 period. The
exploration work included 39 drill holes, aggregating 10,561 feet
(3,219 metres) drilling on the eastern side of Forgan Lake. Lithium
mineralization on the Property is comprised of six
spodumene-bearing pegmatites (Number 1 to 6 Pegmatites as described
in the Ontario Department of Mines Geological Report No. 31). Some
of these Pegmatites continue onto the Lucky Lake claim block.
Several channel samples were taken on Number 1
Pegmatite by Lun-Echo Gold Mines Limited. Three samples, from about
midway along the known length of the pegmatite were found to
average 2.57% lithium oxide (Li2O) over a width of 21 feet (6.4 m);
two samples from 80 feet (24.38m) southwest of the first three,
averaged 4.23% Li2O over 24.5 feet (7.46m), and an additional two,
from 225 feet (68.58m) farther southwest 1.98% Li2O over 25 feet
(7.62m).
CAUTIONARY NOTE: The historical results presented
above are taken from the Ontario Department of Mines Geological
Report No. 31 titled, “Geology and Lithium Deposits of Georgia Lake
Area”, by E.G. Pye, (1965) and are relevant to the further
exploration of the project which, the Company intends to undertake
in the future. A qualified person has not done sufficient work to
verify the results; therefore, they should not be relied upon and

Dr. Weiguo Lang, CEO of Ultra Lithium, stated, “We
are very pleased with acquisition of the Forgan Lake property which
is adjacent to the Lucky Lake claim block. This acquisition will
enhance the exploration potential of our Georgia Lake claims and
strengthen our relationship with International Lithium. The Company
intends to start a work program on the property as soon as
historical data compilation is completed. We will then follow up
with a near term test production program using high grade surface
mineralization.”
