VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / March 28, 2019 / Noram Ventures Inc. ("Noram") (TSX - Venture: NRM / Frankfurt: N7R /
OTCPINK: NRVTF) has filed its recent NI 43-101 Technical Report: "Updated Inferred Lithium Mineral Resouce
Estimate, Zeus Project, Clayton Valley, Esmeralda County, Nevada, USA" on its SEDAR Issuer Profile page.
The report incorporates the results of three phases of drilling from 2016 to 2018, including sixty drill holes. The
reported Inferred Mineral Resource estimate indicates zones with higher lithium contents continue from the resource to the south
and east and that the higher grade parts of the deposit remain open at depth. Drilling only tested approximately one third of the
area covered by the Zeus claim block.
The model resource estimate has an Inferred Mineral Resource of approximately 330 million metric tonnes at a grade of
858 ppm Li, or 1.5 million tonnes of lithium carbonate equivalent. Sensitivity analyses for the modeled deposit are listed
in Table 1.

The sensitivity analysis for a 900 ppm Li cutoff yields 145 million metric tonnes at a grade of 1145 ppm Li in a contiguous
volume in the northwest part of the claim block.
Noram Ventures' management is pleased with this resource estimate. The company looks forward to upgrading and expanding this
resource with infill and step-out drill holes in 2019; and then integrating the future drill data into a Preliminary Economic
Assessment that will also address lithium extraction methodology and mining-related economics. Initial leaching tests conducted in
2018 determined that the Zeus lithium clays are non-refractory and yield >80% of their lithium at moderate temperatures and
moderate amounts of sulfuric acid.

Professional Geologist who is a Qualified Person with respect to Noram's Clayton Valley Lithium Project as defined under National
Instrument 43-101.
