Enertopia Corporation Announces up to 103.28% Lithium into Solution

Kelowna, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - June 26, 2023) - Enertopia Corporation (OTCQB: ENRT) (CSE: ENRT) ("Enertopia'' or the "Company") a company focused on building shareholder value through a combination of our Nevada Lithium claims, intellectual property, & provisional patents in the green technology space, is very pleased to provide the following update.

The Company is pleased to announce solution analysis results from a third-party analysis, conducted by Base Metallurgical Laboratories out of Kamloops, BC.

We sent two batches of sample material from the trench near hole DH22-01. The sample material was broken into two groups, roasted and unroasted material. Lithium values for the roasted rock were 840 ppm Li and 820 ppm Li for the unroasted assayed by ALS.

The goal of this test program was to confirm the similar results of Lithium claystone solution analysis from the Tonopah, NV deposits adjoining our WT project location such as American Battery Metals on our western property boundary and American Lithium TLC project one mile north of our northern boundary. Solution test samples by weight were 10% Li claystone, 90% liquid. Below are four of the unroasted Li claystone samples as more lithium was put into solution with unroasted material than roasted material.

Sample #	Volume 20%	Temp of solution	Time in solution	Potential Li into solution	Actual Li into solution	Li released into solution
7	HCL	50c	1hr	91.91 mg/l	49.4 mg/l	54.22%
11	HCL	50c	1hr	91.91 mg/l	27.5 mg/l	30.18%
12	H2SO4	50c	1hr	91.91 mg/l	55.9 mg/l	61.35%
13	H2SO4	90c	2hr	91.91 mg/l	94.1 mg/l	103.28%*

 

Note HCL=Hydrochloric acid, H2SO4 = Sulfuric acid. * Sample 13 was reassayed but same value was returned by ALS out of Vancouver, BC using ME ICP61 analysis. While the 103.28% value was above the theoretical limit. The test showed high values of Li into solution can be anticipated in future test results.

Key Takeaways:

The company has confirmed that Li claystone from the WT project can be put into solution and the Li liberated in high percentages. The next phase of testing will involve larger test samples from drill core from this year's drilling program.

Solution Temperatures used in the next program will be from 60c to 80c which are not dissimilar from the company's solar thermal water temperatures created by the company's patent pending technology.

"We look forward to a steady stream of news and advancements in 2023 not only from Enertopia but also from other Companies operating in the immediate area as work progresses," stated President Robert McAllister.
