Preliminary Results Outline a Path to Low-Cost Lithium Extraction at Agua Fria, Mexico (Lithium Australia 49%, Alix Resources 51%)

Lithium Australia Managing director Adrian Griffin stated: “These results are a great start to our metallurgical evaluation program and clearly show the potential to produce a valuable concentrate from the host volcanogenic sediments. The acid solubility of the lithium is of greater importance. The ability to leach the lithium in very short periods of time, at ambient temperature, and without the requirement of pre-treatment may have profound effects on the economics of Agua Fria, the next major lithium clay deposit.”

Marlin Gold Reports $11.6 Million ($0.07 per share) of Adjusted EBITDA in Q4 and Files Full-Year 2016 Financials

Akiba Leisman, Executive Chairman and Interim CEO states that, “2016 was a tale of two mines for Marlin. For the first three quarters of the year, our operating team led by Jesse Muñoz, was focused on waste removal to access the high grade HS Zone at La Trinidad. As a result of their skill and dedication we began mining the HS Zone in September, which has allowed the Company to de-lever the balance sheet, invest in exploration at both our properties, acquire all necessary land at Commonwealth to fully consolidate the district, and advance our royalty business such that we expect to spin off Sailfish Royalty Corp. to shareholders this year. Since mining the north part of the HS Zone, we have been able to finally show just how profitable La Trinidad can be. With the southern part of the HS Zone coming online at the end of the second quarter of 2017, and exploration success in Mexico and Arizona indicating longevity at both assets, we feel that there is plenty more of this to come.”
