Sudbury, Ontario –February 23, 2017 Frontier Lithium Inc.(TSXV:FL)Frontier (the “Company”), is pleased to announce the commencement of a technical drilling program on its PAK Lithium Project, in the Red Lake mining district in Northwestern Ontario, Canada.

The drilling campaign is designed for the collection of data essential for the finalization of geo-technical and geo-mechanical parameters required for the pending pre-feasibility study (“PFS”). The drilling program will comprise of approximately 750 metres (“m”) of diamond drilling that will be used to test areas for potential site infrastructure, as well as determining optimum pit wall angles for a potential mining operation.

It is anticipated that the pending PFS will be completed by the end of May, 2017. “The PFS will outline the technical and economic parameters of the Project to firstly produce, for the most part technical grade lithium concentrates for the glass ceramics market”, stated Trevor Walker, President and CEO of Frontier. “Furthermore, management is currently planning future test work on sample concentrates from the deposit to investigate the potential for recovery of downstream lithium compounds suitable for the battery market.” If proven through positive results, Frontier could not only pursue operations for the production of rare technical grade lithium concentrates for the ceramic glass market, but could also sell to existing lithium compound producers, with the added future possibility to produce premium lithium compounds such as hydroxide directly to the battery market.

Mr. Garth Drever, P.Geo., is the “Qualified Person” for Frontier defined under NI 43-101 and has reviewed and approved the technical information contained in this news release.
