| INTERNATIONAL LITHIUM CORP. ARRANGES SHORT TERM LOAN | ||
| Vancouver B.C. July 20, 2012: International Lithium Corp. (“ILC” or the “Company”) (ILC: TSX-V) has | ||
| arranged a short term unsecured five month bridge loan of $150,000. TNR Gold Corp., a significant | ||
| shareholder of ILC, has agreed to lend the Company $150,000 at an interest rate of 20% per annum. A | ||
| portion of the proceeds will be used to secure equipment necessary for this season’s exploration program on | ||
| the Mariana Lithium /potassium brine in Argentina. The company is currently in discussions with interested | ||
| parties under confidentiality agreements with respect to its Mariana project and financing options. Further | ||
| announcements will be made in the coming weeks as developments may progress. | ||
| The loan is subject to regulatory approval. | ||
| About International Lithium Corp. | ||
| International Lithium Corp. is an exploration company with an outstanding portfolio of projects, strong | ||
| management ownership, robust financial support and a strategic partner and keystone investor Jiangxi | ||
| Ganfeng Lithium Co. Ltd., a leading China based lithium product manufacturer. | ||
| ILC currently has 9 active rare metals projects, well balanced between lithium-potash brines in Argentina, | ||
| Nevada and hard-rock pegmatites in Canada and Ireland. The Company's primary focus is the Mariana | ||
| lithium-potash brine project, a salar or 'salt lake', covering an expansive 160 square kilometres and | ||
| strategically encompassing the entire basin. Mariana is located in the renowned South American 'Lithium | ||
| Belt' centred on the junction of Argentina, Bolivia and Chile that is host to the vast majority of global lithium | ||
| resources, reserves and production. The Mariana lithium-potash brine project ranks as one of the more | ||
| prospective salars in the region. | ||
| Complementing the Company's lithium brine projects are the rare metals pegmatite properties. The key | ||
| characteristics shared by the hard-rock rare metals projects are their limited past exploration, excellent | ||
| accessibility and limited assaying for rare metals. All of which imply a clear potential for additional | ||
| exploration and development as well as added project value to meet the global technological growth in | ||
| demand for the rare metals suite of elements. | ||
| International Lithium Corp.'s mandate is to increase shareholder value through aggressive advancement of | ||
| its core projects and to source joint venture partners to expand the scope and diversify risk of its exploration | ||
| effort. |
On behalf of the Board of Directors,
Kirill Klip President International Lithium Corp.
