2016-09-13 14:37 ET - News Release Mr. Nav Dhaliwal reports NOKA ENCOUNTERS ANOMALOUS LITHIUM MINERALIZATION AT LINCOLN PROPERTY, CLAYTON VALLEY, NEVADA Noka Resources Inc. has received results from its initial surface sampling program conducted in the southeastern portion of its Lincoln lithium project located in the Clayton Valley, Esmeralda county, Nevada. A total of 24 surface samples were taken using augers and hand equipment to a maximum depth of approximately two metres. Samples consisted of white salts, brown and green clays, as well as coarse-grained sands. The samples results ranged from 87 to 380 parts per million lithium, and on a preliminary basis seem to define six distinct regions of anomalous lithium, which likely has been generated by evaporative concentration of lithium drawn from underlying brines. Sample ID Lithium (ppm) CLT16-02-01 250 CLT16-02-02 210 CLT16-03-01 180 CLT16-02-02 180 CLT16-04-01 380 CLT16-04-02 200 CLT16-04-03 180 CLT16-05-01 190 CLT16-05-02 87 CLT16-06-01 310 CLT16-06-02 300 CLT16-62-03 220 CLT16-07-01 140 CLT16-07-02 150 CLT16-02-03 140 CLT16-08-01 160 CLT16-08-02 130 CLT16-12-01 260 CLT16-12-02 240 CLT16-12-03 280 CLT16-13-01 130 CLT16-13-02 170 CLT16-13-03 100 CLT16-16-14 180 In light of the highly anomalous lithium values encountered in surface pits and augur holes, with some values exceeding 300 parts per million, the company will commence leaching tests on surface clay samples, to be followed, if warranted, with an augur drilling program to test lithium concentrations in clays down to a depth of approximately 75 metres. In addition, the company is also expecting final assays from its Columbus lithium brine project, located in the adjacent Big Smokey Valley, Esmeralda county, where Nasdaq-listed Uranium Resources Inc. has met with considerable success with its 2016 sampling program. The samples were analyzed for lithium content by WETLAB Western Environmental Testing Laboratory in Sparks, Nev., an Environmental Protection Agency-accredited independent laboratory. Samples were analyzed using Standard Methods for the Examination of Water and Wastewater, on-line edition, Methods for Determination of Organic Compounds in Drinking Water, EPA/600/4-79-020, and Test Methods for Evaluation of Solid Waste, Physical/Chemical Methods (SW846). All samples contained lithium levels that were significantly above the detection reporting levels. About the Lincoln property The Lincoln property consists of approximately 1,600 acres located in northwest part of the productive Clayton Valley. The Lincoln property is situated near the northwest flank of Rockwood Lithium's Silver Peak mine, the only lithium producer in North America. The property lies adjacent to the west of Lithium X's north block. Exploration logistics are excellent with property access via a paved highway approximately 0.5 kilometre from the property boundary.
