The Properties are generally associated with past producing oil fields that are fully serviced with nearby roads, power and wellheads in place. Six Permits are located in Alberta's Fox Creek area and include wells with reported historic lithium values ranging from 115-140 Mg/L, in the lithium-bearing Leduc and San Hills formations. The six Permit Applications cover various locations throughout the Province including the Keg River, Winterburn and Woodbend Group formations, with reported historic lithium values ranging from 95-140 Mg/L.  All assays referenced are from the geoScout Oil & Gas Industry database as reported by well operators and monitored by the Government of Alberta.
