VISION LITHIUM REPORTS 2.17% Li2O OVER 5.5 METRES FROM CHANNEL SAMPLES ON CADILLAC LITHIUM PROPERTY

V.VLI

VAL-D'OR, QC, Feb. 14, 2022 /CNW Telbec/ - Vision Lithium Inc. (TSXV: VLI) (OTCQB: ABEPF) (FSE: 1AJ2) (the "Company" or "Vision Lithium") is pleased to announce further high grade lithium exploration results from its recently acquired Cadillac Lithium property (the "Property"), including assays from surface channel sampling and a progress report on initial drilling of pegmatites. The Property comprises a total of 332 claims covering 19,070 hectares (190 km2) located just 10 km south of the historic mining town of Cadillac and approximately halfway between the major mining centres of Rouyn-Noranda and Val-d'Or, in the province of Quebec, Canada.

Yves Rougerie, President and CEO commented, "These channel samples were taken in late fall just prior to snowfall cover. Along with the first batch of results released on December 31st, these new results confirm the occurrence of lithium bearing minerals for 300 metres along strike on pegmatite B. Channel R7 returned 2.17% Li2O over 5.50 m, the best intersection to date, while Channel R1 and R2 located 90 and 60 m East assayed 1.32% over 1.00 m and 4.00% over 1.00 m. Two samples from the A pegmatite dike also returned values near or above 1% Li2O. The exposed dikes have never been stripped, cleaned, sampled and assayed in a systematic fashion. Our fall-winter sampling was limited to what we could see and therefore these results are very encouraging."

Along with the previous results, these results indicate the presence of significant lithium values over a strike length of just under 300 metres, the extent the B dike can be observed on surface. Nothing indicates the B dike stops there and the drilling program will test the extensions of the dike under cover. The Cadillac Lithium property hosts at least 4 known spodumene-bearing pegamtitite dikes which are spaced approximately 100 metres apart and traced for at least 300 metres East-West along strike.

An open-ended drilling program began in January with one drill. The goal of the program is to test the multiple dikes recognized at surface over their strike length and to a vertical depth of 50 metres. To date, seven holes have been completed on three sections over a 150 metre strike length. The holes all target the B pegmatite with a few holes being extended far enough to intersect the C pegmatite and one hole drilled even further in order to intersect the D pegmatite. To date, spodumene is observed in all the holes in varying amounts. Five holes have already been logged, sampled and sent for assay.

Quality assurance/quality control (QA/QC)

The sampling program and the quality control program were planned and supervised by Yves Rougerie. The quality assurance and control protocol involves the insertion of control or normalized samples on average every 10 samples, in addition to the regular insertion in the process of analysis of sterile, duplicate and standardized samples, accredited by ALS Canada Ltd. Samples were transported from the Cadillac Lithium project to a secure facility in Val-d'Or, Quebec where samples were prepared. The sawed channels samples were bagged, sealed and transported to the facility of ALS Chemex in Val-d'Or, where each sample was dried, crushed and pulped (Prep-31). The samples were crushed to 70 per cent less than two millimetres (CRU-31), riffle split, pulverize split to better than 85 per cent passing 75 microns (PUL-31). Samples were assayed for Lithium + 33 element by ICP-AES (ME-MS85) and by 4Acid digestion for ore grade lithium samples (Li-OG63).

The scientific and technical information in this release has been reviewed and approved by Yves Rougerie, Geologist, President and CEO of the Company. Mr. Rougerie is a "qualified person" as defined in National Instrument 43-101 - Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects. The potential grades of exploration targets disclosed in this news release are conceptual in nature. There has been insufficient exploration to define a mineral resource and it is uncertain if further exploration will result in the target being delineated as a mineral resource.
