Nevada Lithium Resources Inc. and its 50% partner in the Bonnie Claire Lithium Project Iconic Minerals Ltd. announce that the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) has approved the Company's exploration Plan of Operations (PoO) for the Project, located in Nye County, Nevada. The field studies completed in support of the PoO were carried-out by EM Strategies, a WestLand Resources Inc. Company of Reno, Nevada, while working closely with the BLM. The work included a series of site surveys covering cultural, biological, and other environmental aspects and will serve as the basis for continued advancement of the Project through the exploration and pre-development phases.

The newly permitted exploration area covers 4,146 acres (16.78 square kilometers), of which, 3,271 acres (13.24 square kilometers) are salt playa. This area includes permitting for 100 acres (0.405 square kilometers) of disturbance, of which, 10.0 acres (0.04 square kilometers) is for drill sites. This is expected to cover future drilling of up to 109 holes during Phase I activities; the number of holes to be drilled under subsequent phases is currently unknown and will be determined by the Phase I results.

The lack of endangered plants or animals, significant cultural sites, paleontological resources, raptors, migratory birds, desert tortoise, and wild horses show a major benefit of the Project's location on a salt flat. Having the baseline environmental and related studies in place will aid in advancing further permitting of the Project. The PoO is anticipated to be further expanded in 2023.
