Nemaska Lithium Inc. (“Nemaska Lithium” or the “Corporation”) (TSX:NMX,OTCQX:NMKEF) is proud to announce it has been named to the 2018 OTCQX® Best 50, a ranking of top performing companies traded on the OTCQX Best Market last year.

Nemaska Lithium Inc. (TSX:NMX,OTCQX:NMKEF) is proud to announce it has been named to the 2018 OTCQX® Best 50, a ranking of top performing companies traded on the OTCQX Best Market last year.

The OTCQX Best 50 is an annual ranking of the top 50 U.S. and international companies traded on the OTCQX market. The ranking is calculated based on an equal weighting of one-year total return and average daily dollar volume growth in the previous calendar year. Companies in the 2018 OTCQX Best 50 were ranked based on their performance in 2017.
“This is our third year in a row ranking in the OTCQX Top 50 and we are very pleased with our consistent year over year share performance,” commented Guy Bourassa, President and CEO of Nemaska Lithium. “Having an active listing for our US shareholder base is an important part of market awareness strategy and we value our US shareholders.”
Bourassa continued, “Once our project will be built, Nemaska Lithium will be the only vertically integrated lithium hard rock producer from mine to chemical plant in North America. As the lithium ion battery industry develops, we anticipate stronger regional buyer and supplier relationships. Currently a tonne of lithium can travel tens of thousands of miles for processing before it actually enters a battery and ultimately an electric vehicle. Nemaska Lithium will be well positioned as a North American supplier. Of course, we will continue to target Asian markets for near term growth opportunities.”

About Nemaska Lithium
Nemaska Lithium’s vision is to “Facilitate access to green energy through its products and processes, for the benefit of humanity”. It intends to become a lithium hydroxide and lithium carbonate supplier to the emerging lithium battery market that is largely driven by electric vehicles, energy storage, cell phones, tablets and other consumer products. The Corporation is developing in Québec, Canada, one of the most important spodumene lithium hard rock deposit in the world, both in volume and grade. The spodumene concentrate produced at Nemaska Lithium’s Whabouchi mine will be shipped to the Corporation’s lithium compounds processing plant to be built in Shawinigan, Quebec. This plant will transform spodumene concentrate into high purity lithium hydroxide and carbonate using the proprietary methods developed by the Corporation, and for which the Corporation holds nine issued patents and several patent applications that are pending in different countries, covering different aspects and improvements of its proprietary technology for preparing high purity lithium hydroxide and carbonate, in an eco-friendly fashion.
