New Tech Lithium Corp. Signs Letter of Intent (LOI) for Acquisition of a Cobalt Property in Nevada

Cobalt mineralization at the property occurs as disseminated Cobalt-bearing ("Cobaltoan") pyrite associated with strong Na-Ca hydrothermal alteration in gabbroic intrusive and co-magmatic basalt-andesite volcanic flows and inter-bedded sediments. Lesser Nickel-sulfide mineralization is associated with the Cobalt mineralization.

Fifteen samples were collected from an open-pit wall and associated waste-dump material on the property by a previous operator and results are reported in a currently unpublished, pre-print publication (T.A. DeMatties, 2016). Of the 15 samples reported 1 sample contains 1.2% Cobalt, 6 samples contain between 0.12% - 0.82% Cobalt, 7 samples contain between 0.023% - 0.079% Cobalt and, 1 sample contains 0.009% Cobalt.
