Tecpetrol Bid and Hombre Muerto Drilling Update

Alpha Lithium Corporation (NEO: ALLI) (OTC: APHLF) (German WKN: A3CUW1) (" Alpha ") or the (" Company ") announces that TechEnergy Lithium Canada Inc., a subsidiary of Tecpetrol Investments S.L. (" Tecpetrol "), has advised that it has taken-up and acquired 102,692,615 common shares of Alpha, representing approximately 54% of the issued and outstanding Alpha shares, pursuant to its offer (the " Offer ") to acquire Alpha for C$1.48 in cash per share. Tecpetrol advises that they will pay for the tendered shares within three business days.

Tecpetrol has further advised that all the conditions to the Offer have been satisfied or waived (including the statutory minimum tender condition), and Tecpetrol has extended the expiry time of the Offer by a mandatory period of 10 days to 5:00 p.m. (Vancouver time) on October 31, 2023.

Hombre Muerto Drilling Update

Alpha has completed drilling two wells on one of its existing properties in Hombre Muerto. The first well was drilled to 550 meters and the second was drilled to 577 meters. Zelandez Services Argentina SRL ("Zelandez") (www.zelandez.com), the most advanced technology-based service provider in Argentina, has performed highly-detailed and accurate Borehole Magnetic Resonance (BMR) measurements to determine porosity and specific yield in each wellbore.

Both wells encountered multiple brine bearing zones and, as they were both drilled as producing wellbores, are currently being flow-tested.

Samples from each well were collected during initial pumping, serving as composite chemistry for the entire screened interval of the well and are more representative of the chemistry that would be expected from that well during production pumping.

Samples were sent to the Alex Stewart International (ASI) laboratory in Argentina and a summary of the results is presented below.

Well #1, drilled to 550 meters:

Brunswick Exploration Discovers Greenland's First Spodumene Pegmatite in Major Evolved Pegmatite Field

Brunswick Exploration Inc. (TSX-V: BRW, OTCQB: BRWXF; FRANKFURT:1XQ; " BRW " or the " Company ") is extremely pleased to announce that it has discovered a lithium-bearing pegmatite containing spodumene within the company's Nuuk License, located roughly 90 kilometers north-east of Nuuk, the capital of Greenland (Figure 1). The newly discovered pegmatite outcrop is open in all directions and is part of a significant evolved pegmatite field measuring over 20 kilometers long known as the Ivisaartoq Field, marking the first confirmed lithium discovery in the country.

Mr. Killian Charles, President and CEO of BRW, commented: "We are delighted to announce the first hard rock lithium discovery in Greenland. This discovery was made near the end of our field season after spending limited time in the country and leveraged Brunswick's strong exploration expertise. Prior to our discovery at Ivisaartoq, there were no confirmed showings in Greenland and it demonstrates the strong potential for additional discoveries across the entire country which has never been previously explored for lithium. Importantly, it represents a significant opportunity for the Company as we remain first movers for lithium exploration in Greenland."
