About Lithium Energy Products Ltd.

Lithium Energy Products has 4 highly prospective properties in Kamloops, Nevada and Arizona.

 

Lost Sheep Fluorspar Project – Delta, Utah

• - 100% owned – 1,447 acres – 67 Claims

  - Located in the Spor Mountain area, Juab County, Utah, approximately 214 km south-west of Salt Lake City.

  - Fully Permitted – including mining permits.

  - NI 43-101 Technical Report identified extensive high-grade fluorspar with low levels of impurities.

  - Mining plan approved.

 

Vanadium Ridge Project – Barriere, British Columbia

• - 20% owned - 5213 acres – 20 claims

  - 50km north of Kamloops.

  - Airborne magnetic survey detected an intense magnetic anomaly. A vanadium-rich magnetite deposit was subsequently discovered.

  - Preliminary diamond drilling discovered multiple massive magnetite seams and pods. All drill holes intersected broad intervals of magnetite mineralization.

  - Initial metallurgical testing of the magnetite / vanadium produced concentrate averaging 67% iron, 93% magnetite, and 0.74% vanadium.

  - Metallurgical testing indicates that the magnetite is coarse-grained, soft, and that silica is not bound in magnetite. Crushing produces a good liberation of silica at 106 microns resulting in a high-grade magnetite concentrate even in samples with disseminated magnetite.

  - Favourable logistics are excellent: Rail, high power transmission lines and a highway run through the property. It is located just over 300 km from a shipping port in Vancouver, B.C.

 

Jackpot Lake Lithium Property –Moapa Valley, Nevada

• - 100% owned – 2,800 acres – 140 claims

  - 35 km NE of Las Vegas

  - 1976 USGS completed 129 core samples; highest Lithium value was 550 ppm, average 175 ppm

  - Spectrographic and atomic-absorption analyses of 135 stream sediment samples confirmed potential for lithium mineral deposits.

 

Wilcox Lithium Property –Arizona

• - 1,400 acres on shore of Wilcox Playa – Dry lake bed

  - In 1976 USGS identified this area as one of the most prospective locations for lithium brines and highly analogous to Clayton Valley

  - The USGS has identified a 22-sq. mile anomaly with high electrical conductivity, interpreted as subsurface brine field with no hydrological outlet.

 

The company is also the owner of five iron (magnetite) ore properties in the Red Lake Mining District in the Province of Ontario. The Red Lake District is an established mining region where Lithium Energy Products has two near term development projects, the past producing Griffith mine and the Karas property.
