Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - July 14, 2016) - Iconic Minerals Ltd. (TSXV: ICM) (FSE: YQGB) (OTC Pink:
BVTEF) (the "Company" or "Iconic") is pleased to announce that it has received the final report by Frank Fritz of Fritz Geophysics,
of Fort Collins, Colorado, on the MagnetoTelluric (MT) geophysical survey (the "MT Survey") at the Company's Bonnie Claire Lithium
Project in Nevada, U.S.A. Two gently dipping low resistivity zones have been outlined that are interpreted to be brine
reservoirs (see News Release dated June 20, 2016). These zones, which exhibit lateral continuity, underlay a large part of
the Property that encompasses 27.5 square kilometers (10.6 square miles) and are initially encountered at a depth of 200 meters
(650 feet).
The MT Survey, conducted by Zonge International Inc. of Reno, Nevada, consisted of nine east-west lines for a total of 52.9
line-km (32.4 line-miles). The dipole spacing was 200 meters (656 feet), and the resulting data quality was described as
"excellent". The resistivities encountered were very low, and consequently a lengthy processing period was required.
The interpreted brine zones dip gently to the east and are offset by interpreted north-northwest striking, and east-northeast
dipping high angle normal faults.
In order to cover the larger than anticipated aerial extent of the interpreted reservoir zones, the Company has acquired an
additional 234 placer claims. The total land holding package is now 1,155 claims that encompass an area of 23,100 acres (36.1
square miles /93.5 square km).
Fritz Geophysics has recommended multiple drill locations from which to test the interpreted brine reservoir horizons. The
Company has been granted by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) authority to drill up to 6 lithium brine test wells, of which the
initial drill program will consist of 3 vertical wells (see News Release dated July 7, 2016).
The Bonnie Claire Lithium Property Characteristics:
The Property is located within a valley that is approximately 30 km long and 20 km wide, the associated drainage basin covers an
area of 2,070 square km. Quartz-rich volcanic rocks, that contain anomalous amounts of lithium, occur within and adjacent to the
drainage basin. Geochemical analysis of the local salt flats has yielded lithium values up to 340ppm. The gravity low
within the valley is 20 km (12 miles) long, the initial estimates of the depth to bedrock range from 1260 to 610 meters (1,500 to
2,000 feet). The current claim block covers the gravity low and the associated mud flats.
Richard Kern, Certified Professional Geologist (#11494) and CEO of Iconic is the Qualified Person who has prepared and reviewed
this press release in accordance with NI 43-101 reporting standards.
