Additional mapping and prospecting has discovered multiple new spodumene rich boulders in a boulder train approximately 250m southwest of previously identified boulder trains
Additional results received from previously sampled areas, as well as new sampling 500m west of recent drilling, report multiple high grade boulders over 1.3% Li2O
New 370 hectare claim application lodged, making the total Bergby land package more than 10828 hectares
Results from the southwest boulder train include 2.54% Li2O, 1.49% Li2O, 1.44% Li2O and 3.15% Li2O (see Table 1 and Figures 1 and 2). In addition, a newly identified spodumene rich boulder train has been discovered 250m southwest of these results which been mapped for more than 750m in length. Boulder samples of visible spodumene bearing pegmatite from the current data set range from 0.20% Li2O to 2.54% Li2O and average 1.17% Li2O. Boulder samples of pegmatite where there was no visible spodumene from the current data set range from 0.00% Li2O to 1.49% Li2O and average 0.11% Li2O.
Soil samples taken in the vicinity of the interpreted source of the northern spodumene boulder train are currently being processed by the lab. Results will be released as they become available.

Bergby was discovered by the Leading Edge Materials team early in 2016, and has already thrown up both high grades and a high hit rate of potentially mineralized pegmatite.
Bergby lies in central
The Company has since been granted Bergby nr 4, 6, and 7, contiguous to the initial four exploration permits.
