ELKO, NV / ACCESSWIRE / March 15, 2022 / Lithium Corporation (OTCQB:LTUM) ("LTUM" or "the Company"), a North American corporation focused on energy metals for the growing energy storage sector and high-tech industries, wishes to inform shareholders it recently increased the size of its BC Sugar flake graphite claim block in British Columbia, and is planning to recommence work on this prospect late Spring 2022.
Graphite markets are more buoyant than the past several years with demand for flake graphite from the EV battery sector predicted to rise over 35% in 2022 (Source: Fastmarkets). Additionally, recent world events are driving home the need to ensure we have an ample, readily available supply of energy metals here in North America. The Company acquired the property in 2013 and performed geological and sampling work over the following field seasons, culminating in trenching programs at the "Weather Station" zone in 2015, and a point midway between that zone and the Taylor Creek area in 2018. Trenching at the Weather Station intercepted a broad zone of mineralization with a core area of almost 100 feet (~30 meters) where weathering was as deep as 8 meters subsurface, and average grades were 2.73% graphitic carbon. The 2018 program intercepted up to 2.62% graphitic carbon in one of the test pits. Due to weakness in the graphite market, Lithium Corporation reduced the size of its claim block and has not conducted any further work on this property. The graphite market has since roared back to life, so the Company increased its holdings in the Weather Station/Taylor Creek area to approximately 1321 acres (534.66 ha's), and to 1626 acres (657.95 ha's) further east at the Sugarland showing. The Company is currently in the planning stages with respect to the work to be done on these prospects this summer.
