VANCOUVER, June 8, 2016 /CNW/ - Eureka Resources Inc.
("Eureka" or the "Company") (TSXV: EUK) is pleased to report that the TSX Venture Exchange (the "TSXV") has accepted for
filing a letter agreement dated January 20, 2016 and an addendum to the letter agreement dated
May 4, 2016 between the Eureka and Nevada Sunrise Gold Corporation ("Nevada Sunrise") (TSXV: NEV)
whereby the Eureka can acquire a 50% interest in the Gemini Lithium Project ("Gemini") which comprises 247 placer mining claims
totalling 4,940 acres (2,000 hectares) in the western Lida Valley, Nevada.
Gemini hosts two deep, sub-basins that have the potential for lithium-bearing brines similar to the proven lithium brine
deposits located in the Clayton Valley. Lithium occurs in economic quantities within brines in the Clayton Valley where the only
producing lithium mine in North America is located. Gemini is situated in a similar geologic
environment and is 40 kilometres southeast of the Clayton Valley.
The Company has paid CAD$ 96,794 being its 50% share of the acquisition costs, and geophysical and
geological costs incurred to date on Gemini. In addition, Eureka has issued 300,000 common shares to Nevada Sunrise according to
the terms of the letter agreement, thereby acquiring its 50% interest in Gemini.
Gemini Lithium Project
In March 2016, Eureka and Nevada Sunrise commissioned SJ Geophysics Ltd. to perform a follow-up
time domain electromagnetic ("TDEM") survey to further define conductive strata present within the two sub-basins at Gemini, first
detected in a TDEM survey carried out in February 2016. The processing and modelling of the combined TDEM data has been
completed and 10 drill site locations have been chosen for a late summer drilling program to explore Gemini sub-basins for
lithium-bearing brines. A permit application for up to 10 drilling sites has been submitted to the United States Bureau of Land
Management.
