Apex Resources Inc. (“Apex” or the “Company”) (TSXV: APX) is excited to announce analytical results from fluid samples recently collected from the Company’s Lithium Creek Project (the “Project”), located in Churchill County, Nevada. The Project consists of 10 incontiguous blocks of placer claims covering approximately 4,720 acres and adjacent lands within the aerially extensive Fernley and Carson Sinks. These sinks have large expansive playas and lay within large hydrographic basins with a combined area of approximately 1.4 million-acres. The fluid samples were collected from Lithium Creek, a historic well, and shallow hand-dug auger holes that were excavated 1-2 meters below ground surface using hand tools throughout the Project area. The analytical results of the fluid samples show lithium values ranging from 393 milligrams per liter (mg/L) to 4.65 mg/L, with more than half (55%) of the samples higher than 50 mg/L.
The fluid samples were collected from playas where the shallow groundwater could be accessed using hand tools. The sample locations were separated by sufficient distances to examine the potential for the lateral distribution of lithium enriched brines. Fluid samples were collected from 20 shallow hand augured test holes, one (1) historic well remnant of the old salt works operation, and one (1) sample of surface water was collected from Lithium Creek. Two (2) duplicate samples and one (1) field blank sample were collected for Quality Assurance/Quality Control (QA/QC) purposes in accordance with the sampling and analytical plan for the Project. Table 1 below provides a tabulation of the analytical results for the samples collected.
