Nevada Sunrise and Advantage Lithium Acquire Triton Lithium Property in Clayton Valley, Nevada

07.06.2017  |  CNW

TSXV: NEV

VANCOUVER, June 7, 2017 /CNW/ - Nevada Sunrise Gold Corp. ("Nevada Sunrise" or the "Company") (TSXV: NEV) and Advantage Lithium Corp. ("Advantage") (TSXV: AAL) are pleased to announce the acquisition of a 100% interest in the Triton lithium property ("Triton", or the "Property"), located in the northern Clayton Valley in Esmeralda County, Nevada, close to the town of Silver Peak.

Under mutual agreement with the vendor, the acquisition of Triton is subject to an area of interest clause contained within the property agreement for the Clayton Northeast Project, currently owned 51% by Advantage and 49% by Nevada Sunrise, located approximately 5 kilometres to the northeast (for details of the terms of the Clayton Northeast underlying property agreement see Nevada Sunrise news release dated December 10, 2015, and for details of the Advantage option agreement for five Nevada lithium properties, including Clayton Northeast, see Nevada Sunrise news release dated June 20, 2016). Advantage can increase its ownership interest in Triton and Clayton Northeast to 70% by continuing to fund property exploration and tenure costs. To date, Advantage has funded over CAD$2.0 million of its CAD$3.0 million earn-in commitment.

"The acquisition of Triton adds a very strategic property to our portfolio of Clayton Valley projects," said Warren Stanyer, President and CEO of Nevada Sunrise. "We believe that Triton lies in a highly-prospective area for lithium brines at the edge of North America's only producing lithium mine."

About the Triton Lithium Property
Triton consists of 19 unpatented claims totaling approximately 380 acres (154 hectares) and is contiguous to the Silver Peak lithium brine mine operated by Albemarle Corporation ("Albemarle") (ALB: NYSE), and to the lithium brine exploration property known as Clayton Valley South owned by Pure Energy Minerals Ltd. (TSXV: PE). Triton lies on the southwestern edge of Albemarle's lithium brine operations, and a portion of a dormant evaporation pond is present on the Property. Triton straddles Alcatraz Island in a geologically prospective area less than 1 kilometre from the town of Silver Peak and is divided into two parts - East Graben and West Graben, with each area covering a playa surface. No known exploration drill holes are present on Triton. Nevada Sunrise believes that the stratigraphy of the Property is consistent with that of Albemarle's Silver Peak lithium brine production area and intends to drill test Triton as soon as is practicable.

About the Clayton Valley
In 2013, the USGS released a report describing the Clayton Valley's potential to host lithium deposits based on the hypothesis that lithium is liberated by weathering of host rocks or derived from hydrothermal fluids from a variety of rock sources within a closed basin. The floor of Clayton Valley has an area of about 100 square kilometers and a catchment of about 1,400 square kilometres, and is the lowest (topographically) of at least five adjacent basins that are hydrologically linked by groundwater flow (Zampirro, 2003). It is the combined area of all five linked catchments that makes the effective area of the Clayton Valley lithium-brine system much larger than the footprint of the Clayton Valley proper (Source: from USGS Open File 13-1006, 2013).

A successful 6-hole exploration drilling program carried out in 2016-2017 by Nevada Sunrise and Advantage at Clayton Northeast intersected up to 426.72 metres of brine-producing strata averaging 243.44 milligrams per litre ("mg/l") lithium in borehole CNE-17-04 between a depth of 140.21 metres to 609.6 metres, including a higher-grade interval averaging 274.6 mg/l lithium over 79.2 metres from a depth of 530.35 metres to 609.6 metres (see Nevada Sunrise news release dated March 1, 2017).

About Nevada Sunrise
Nevada Sunrise is a junior mineral exploration company with a strong technical team based in Vancouver, BC, Canada, that holds interests in mineral exploration projects in the State of Nevada, USA. Nevada Sunrise began acquisitions of Nevada lithium properties in September 2015, which include options to earn a 75% interest in the Neptune project (Resolve Ventures Inc. (TSXV: RSV) owns a 25% interest), a 100% interest in the Clayton Northeast project, and 100% of the Aquarius project by way of staking, all located in the Clayton Valley area. The Company also holds options to earn 100% interests in the Jackson Wash and Atlantis projects, each located in playas proximal to the Clayton Valley. In July 2016, the Company optioned five of the Nevada lithium projects to Advantage Lithium Corp., who since has earned a 51% interest in Clayton Northeast, Aquarius and Jackson Wash projects, and a 50% participating interest in the Gemini project. The Atlantis project is currently under option to American Lithium Corp. (TSXV: LI).

The Company's three key gold assets include a 21% interest in a joint venture with Liberty Gold Inc. (formerly Pilot Gold Inc.) (TSX: LGD) at Kinsley Mountain near Wendover, a 100% interest in the Golden Arrow project near Tonopah, and an option to earn a 100% interest in the Roulette gold property in the southeastern Carlin trend near Ely, with each of the properties subject to certain production royalties.
