    New Tech Minerals Announces Cobalt and Vanadium Results from a Recent Sampling Program at Their Buena Vista Hills Cobalt Project in Nevada

    New Tech Lithium Corp (CSE:NTM) (the “Company”) is pleased to announce as part of preparation for a phase 1 diamond drilling program scheduled for Q-4, 2018, New Tech Minerals (NTM:CSE) geologists recently conducted a geologic reconnaissance and sample collection program on its Buena Vista Hills (BVH) cobalt project, located approximately 23 miles ESE of Lovelock, focusing on the historic Seigerstrom-Heizer (SH) open pit iron mine area located on the property.

    New Tech Lithium Corp (CSE:NTM) (the “Company”) is pleased to announce as part of preparation for a phase 1 diamond drilling program scheduled for Q-4, 2018, New Tech Minerals (NTM:CSE) geologists recently conducted a geologic reconnaissance and sample collection program on its Buena Vista Hills (BVH) cobalt project, located approximately 23 miles ESE of Lovelock, focusing on the historic Seigerstrom-Heizer (SH) open pit iron mine area located on the property. The Seigerstrom-Heizer mine has an historical resource of 35 million tons of 30% iron, composed primarily of semi-massive to massive magnetite (Nevada Bureau of Mines, 1977).

    Rock Sampling and Results

    Select samples of limonite-altered rock, a result of pyrite oxidation, were collected within and adjacent to the main iron-cobalt-vanadium mineralized zones in and around the SH open pit. Representative samples of the various types of mostly un-oxidized magnetite-pyrite mineralization were also collected from the dumps surrounding the open pit.

    Three semi-massive to massive magnetite samples were significantly enriched in vanadium (1245 ppm, 1255 ppm, and 1360 ppm V), with elevated levels of cobalt (64 ppm, 384 ppm, and 176 ppm Co, respectively).

    Two semi-massive magnetite samples with significant pyrite content were significantly enriched in cobalt (1485 ppm and 4820 ppm Co) with elevated levels of vanadium (410 ppm and 169 ppm V, respectively).

    Limonite-altered samples were collected from the NE wall of the SH pit and from several small development (“prospect”) pits occurring along the NE extension of the SH fault zone, and from a small pit and outcrop SW of the open -pit. Four samples collected from the NE margins of the pit wall, and from development pits and a cat-cut that occur up to 1000 feet NE of the SH pit, were significantly enriched in cobalt (284, 465, 825, 921 ppm Co). A rock sample taken from a development pit located approximately 1,500-feet NE of the SH pit contains 837 ppm cobalt.

    Conclusions

    Reconnaissance and dump sampling results suggest the following:

    1. Magnetite, with little or no pyrite, contains significant vanadium mineralization.
    2. Magnetite mineralization can contain significant cobalt mineralization as well (up to approximately 1.2% cobalt), with cobalt concentrations generally positively correlated with the amount of contained pyrite.
    3. Zones of rock containing strong limonite alteration extending up to 1,500-feet NE of the open pit contain significant cobalt mineralization.
    1. Drilling will be required to determine the geometry and extent of cobalt and vanadium mineralization beneath and adjacent to the SH open pit as well as both NE and NW of the SH fault.

    Option Agreement Amendment

    Further to the news release on August 1st, 2018, the company has amended the agreement of the terms to property package approximately 4.2 kilometres southeast of Sokoman Iron Corp.’s flagship Moosehead high-grade gold project in Newfoundland:

    New Tech has the option to acquire 100 per cent of the property in a cash and share exchange agreement in consideration for:

    • Payment of $15,000 already paid;
    • Issuance of 1.5 million common shares to be paid upon closing of the agreement.

    New Tech Lithium is engaged in the exploration and development of promising Cobalt and Lithium projects in America, including the Buena Vista Hills Cobalt project in Nevada, the Fredericktown Cobalt project in Missouri and the Paradox Basin Lithium-Bromine project in Utah/Colorado. The Company is managed by seasoned professionals with extensive experience in mineral exploration and development throughout the world.
