20.10.2023  |  GlobeNewswire
Receives Conditional Acceptance For the Intellectual Property License Agreement With G2L Greenview Resources

CALGARY, Oct. 20, 2023 - LithiumBank Resources Corp. (TSX-V: LBNK) (OTCQX: LBNKF) (the "Company" or "LithiumBank") is pleased to announce that it has closed its previously announced non-brokered private placement for gross proceeds of $3,506,500 through the sale of 3,506,500 units ("Units") at a price of $1.00 per Unit (the "Private Placement"). Each Unit is comprised of one common share of the Company (a "Share") and one-half (1/2) of one common share purchase warrant (each whole warrant, a "Warrant"). Each Warrant entitles the holder to purchase an additional Share at a price of $1.50 per Share for a period of 24 months from the date of issuance.

Paul Matysek, Executive Chairman of LithiumBank comments, "I am very pleased at the conviction and commitment of the Board and senior management to all fully participate in the financing. These proceeds together with over 6 million dollars designated for exploration will be instrumental in advancing Boardwalk and Park Place, our two district scale projects and expediting our upcoming pilot plant testing with G2L."

All securities issued in connection with the Private Placement are subject to a four-month hold period from the closing date under applicable Canadian securities laws, in addition to such other restrictions as may apply under applicable securities laws of jurisdictions outside Canada. The Private Placement is subject to final acceptance of the TSX Venture Exchange (the "TSXV").

The net proceeds of the Private Placement will be used for administration and working capital and to expedite further advancement of its portfolio of district scale direct brine lithium assets in Western Canada.

Multilateral Instrument 61-101

In addition, the following insiders of the Company participated for an aggregate of $970,000 as follows: Paul Matysek, Executive Chairman and Director purchased 150,000 units, Rob Shewchuk, CEO and Director purchased 100,000 units, Christopher Murray, a director of the Company, purchased 250,000 Units; Gianni Kovacevic, a director of the Company, purchased 250,000 Units; Ekaterina Zotova a director of the Company, purchased 150,000 Units; Steven Piepgrass a director of the Company, purchased 20,000 Units; Kevin Piepgrass, an officer of the Company, purchased 40,000 Units; and Ann Fehr an officer of the Company, purchased 10,000 Units; (collectively "Interested Parties"). Their participation accounted for over 27.66% of the proceeds from the Private Placement. The placement to the Interested Parties constitutes a "related party transaction" within the meaning of Multilateral Instrument 61-101 Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions ("MI 61-101"). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the directors of the Company have determined that the Interested Parties' participation in the Private Placement will be exempt from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements of MI 61-101 in reliance on the exemptions set forth in sections 5.5(a) and 5.7(1)(a) of MI 61-101. The Company did not file a material change report more than 21 days before the expected closing of the Private Placement as the details of the Private Placement and the participation therein by related parties of the Company were not settled until shortly prior to closing and the Company wished to close on an expedited basis for sound business reasons.

In connection with the Private Placement, the Company paid certain finders, including PI Financial Corp., Red Cloud Securities Inc. and Leede Jones Gable Inc. the following finders' fees: (i) a cash commission in the aggregate amount of $41,640, being up to 6.0% of the gross proceeds raised under the Private Placement from investors introduced to the Company by such finders; and (ii) 40,290 non-transferable common share purchase warrants of the Company ("Finder Warrants"), being equal to 6.0% of the Units sold under the Private Placement from investors introduced to the Company by such finders. Each Finder Warrant is exercisable to acquire one unit of the Company (a "Finder Unit") at a price of $1.00 per Finder Unit. Each Finder Unit is comprised of one Share and one-half (1/2) of one Warrant, with each Warrant entitling the holder thereof to purchase an additional Share at a price of $1.50 per Share for a period of 24 months from the date of issuance. The Finder Warrants issued pursuant to the Private Placement will be subject to a four month hold period from the date of issue.

The Company is also pleased to announce following update regarding the previously announced intellectual property license agreement dated September 8, 2023 (the "License Agreement") with G2L Greenview Resources Inc. ("G2L"), a subsidiary of Go2Lithium Inc. The Company has received conditional acceptance from the TSXV for the License Agreement.

A PEA is preliminary in nature as it includes a portion of inferred mineral resources that are considered too speculative geologically to have the economic considerations applied to them that would enable them to be categorized as mineral reserves, and there is no certainty that the preliminary economic assessment will be realized.

Mr. Piepgrass consents to the inclusion of the data in the form and context in which it appears.

Mineral resources are not mineral reserves and do not have demonstrated economic viability. There is no guarantee that all or any part of the mineral resource will be converted into a mineral reserve. The estimate of mineral resources may be materially affected by geology, environment, permitting, legal, title, taxation, socio-political, marketing, or other relevant issues. A preliminary economic assessment is preliminary in nature as it includes a portion of inferred mineral resources that are considered too speculative geologically to have the economic considerations applied to them that would enable them to be categorized as mineral reserves, and there is no certainty that the preliminary economic assessment will be realized.
