VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Sept. 14, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- United Lithium Corp. (CSE: ULTH; OTC: ULTHF; FWB: 0ULA) (“ULTH” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that drilling has commenced at the Kietyönmäki lithium project (“Kietyönmäki” or the “project”) in Finland. A first stage 10 hole drill program is planned, with holes averaging 100m in length. The aim of the drill program is to confirm current geological knowledge of the project as well as to provide enough geological data to model a mineralized body exceeding 500,000 tonnes with a grade of greater than 1% Li2O. If drill results are encouraging, a follow up drill program of 400 m can be commenced. The immediate surrounding of the Kietyönmäki Li-pegmatite will be further explored with a bedrock surface sampling program of 250 sample points.
