CALGARY, ALBERTA, January 13, 2021 – Lithium Chile Inc. (“Lithium Chile” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that it has a team on its Laguna Blanca lithium/cesium Property to do an advanced exploration program of both salt and liquid sampling to provide additional data on its earlier exploration program. The initial sampling program covered less than 10% of the 4600-hectare property and at that time the liquid samples were not assayed for cesium however the salt and silt samples returned high lithium and cesium assays from the surface sediments to a depth of I.2 meters.

Highlights:
• Lithium grades ranging from 1125 ppm to a high of 1450 ppm
• Cesium grades ranging from 112 ppm to two samples of 682ppm and 688 ppm
The extremely high grades of both lithium and cesium in the solid samples has made an advanced exploration program on the Laguna Blanca property a priority for Lithium Chile. The lithium grades in the salt sampling from the initial surface samples returned some of the highest lithium grades seen to date.

Cesium is a strategic mineral as designated by the U.S. Geological Survey in May 2018. Demand and prices for cesium have risen recently driven by its use in 5G mobile Networks. There are currently only three cesium mines in the world today all controlled by Chinese companies.

More importantly, the ability for Lithium Chile to get their exploitation team on the ground at Laguna Blanca reflects the easing of the Covid 19 restrictions that have been in place in Chile since early in 2020. Easing of these restrictions will allow Lithium Chile to advance its other lithium projects as well.

Steve Cochrane, President, and CEO of Lithium Chile commented: “it gives me great pleasure to be able to tell our shareholders we are once again working on our lithium prospects. The proximity of our lithium properties, in the heart of the lithium triangle, to Bolivia and Argentina resulted in a yearlong access restriction to our properties by the Chilean Government. The Government wanted to reduce the risk of cross-border contamination as much as possible resulting in road and border closures. The lifting of these access restrictions coupled with the recent rise in Chinese lithium carbonate prices from 40,000 RMB ($6,000US) to 60,000 RMB ($9,000 US) over the last 15 weeks gives us a lot of optimism for 2021.”

Qualified Person
Mr. Terence Walker, M.Sc., P.Geo., qualified person within the meaning of National Instrument 43-101, has reviewed the contents of this news release. During the course of the exploration program all samples were collected by experienced Lithium Chile staff. Each salt and sediment consisted of 1 -1.5 kg of unconsolidated material taken from 0.5 – 1.2m deep holes using a hand-held auger that were bagged and sealed on site. All samples were delivered by Lithium Chile’s staff to the ALS prep-lab in La Serena for processing. ALS subsequently shipped a 30g sub-sample to their laboratory in Lima, Peru where they were analyzed 51 elements, including lithium and cesium, by the ICP-MS technique following Agua Regia digestion. Over limit (>500ppm Cs) sample were re-run using the ICP-MS81 technique following lithium borate fusion.

About Lithium Chile
Lithium Chile is advancing a lithium property portfolio consisting of 71,900 hectares covering sections of 10 salars and two laguna complexes in Chile.
Lithium Chile now also owns 5 properties that are prospective for gold, silver and copper. The Carmona property lies in the heart of the Chilean Mega Porphyry copper, gold and silver belt.
Lithium Chile’s common shares are listed on the TSX-V under the symbol “LITH” and on the OTC-BB under the symbol “LTMCF”.

LITHIUM CHILE ANNOUNCES TEM GEOPHYSICAL PROGRAM ON ITS LOS MORROS PROPERTY AND AN UPDATE ON SUBSCRIPTIONS FOR ITS RECENTLY ANNOUNCED PRIVATE PLACEMENT

Global News Report –

‘Lithium Chile Samples Up To 12.7 G/T Gold And Up To 147 G/T Silver On Carmona Gold/Silver Property

OTC-BB: LTMCF

CALGARY, ALBERTA, February 3, 2021 – Lithium Chile Inc. (“Lithium Chile” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that it has contracted Geoxploraciones SA Chile to run a 17 km transient electromagnetic (“TEM”) survey on its 100% owned Los Morros lithium bearing property. TEM has been shown to be a valuable tool in identifying highly conductive subterranean brine aquifers. Lithium Chile’s prior TEM surveys have proven highly accurate in defining the principal brine aquifers on both of the Company’s previously drilled Ollague and Turi properties

SALAR de LOS MORROS PROPERTY HIGHLIGHTS:
• 17 sq km covering 30% of the south sector of the salar;
• Brine samples taken by Lithium Chile from historic bore holes returned lithium grades up to 700mg/l;
• Historic drill hole logs describe the conductive zone as loose gravel and sands containing brine beginning at 50 to 75 meters below surface;
• Historic down hole geophysical surveys indicate 100+ meter thick conductive anomaly underlying the whole property.

The TEM survey is intended to identify locations for 3 additional exploration holes which the Company will seek permits for immediately after evaluation of the TEM survey. The absence of Indigenous surface claims on the Salar de Los Morros property is expected to expedite the permitting process.

PRIVATE PLACEMENT
The Company has received expressions of interest for the full amount of the recently announced (February 2, 2021) $3,500,000 private placement of Units (the “Private Placement”). The Company is pleased to have received such a positive reception to the proposed financing. Although Lithium Chile’s treasury has recently strengthened as a result of numerous warrant exercises, the proceeds from the proposed financing will substantially improve Lithium Chile’s financial flexibility going forward.

Qualified Person
Mr. Terence Walker, M.Sc., P.Geo., qualified person within the meaning of National Instrument 43-101, has reviewed and approved the contents of this news release. Individual brine samples were collected from the old bore holes by Lithium Chile staff using a double valve bailer system, placed in sterile 250 ml vials that were sealed and tagged on site. All samples were shipped to ALS Patagonia Laboratories, Santiago, Chile, where they were prepared and subsequently shipped to ALS’s Vancouver, Canada laboratory where the brine analysis was performed.
