- SORCIA has reached an agreement for over 2000 hectares to exploit lithium 
with innovative sustainable technology

SORCIA CHILE SPA (SORCIA), a wholly owned subsidiary of the US company, SORCIA 
MINERALS LLC, reached an agreement with RJR SALAR SPA (RJR) to exploit lithium 
in the Maricunga salar, in the Atacama Region.

Sorcia continues to advance in its objective of introducing in Chile an 
innovative and highly sustainable technology developed by the Canadian Company, 
INTERNATIONAL BATTERY METALS, LTD. (IBAT), and which allows the extraction of 
lithium, while reinjecting over 90% of the extracted brine in its natural 
state, minimizing the consumption of water and using mobile and modular plants 
that are less invasive to the land.

The "selective absorption" lithium technology was invented in the late 1980´s 
by Dr. John Burba, CEO of IBAT, and the latest version of Dr Burba's 
proprietary technology allows for a more efficient extraction than the current 
methods, reducing the carbon footprint, drastically reducing the use of water 
and brine in the salar and protecting the surrounding ecosystem.

The growing demand for lithium, driven by electromobility, demands the use of 
cleaner technologies that ensure the preservation of resources and guarantee 
the living conditions of local communities, already challenged by the scarcity 
of water resources.

The exploratory work will be carried out in conjunction with the UNIVERSITY OF 
SANTIAGO DE CHILE (USACH), SORCIA's strategic partner for research, 
development, and implementation of new sustainable mineral exploitation 
technologies.

This acquisition is a continuation of Sorcia's parent Ensorcia Metals 
Corporation's goal of a total supply chain roll out including carbonate plants 
and hydroxide plants under development and planned for Europe.
