AMENDED NEWS RELEASE

A.I.S. RESOURCES ANNOUNCES PROCESSING OF LITHIUM CARBONATE SAMPLES

AT PILOT PLANT

Vancouver, British Columbia – June 28, 2017 – A.I.S. Resources Limited (TSX – NEX: AIS.H,

OTCQB: AISSF) (the “Company” or “AIS”) is pleased to announce that it has delivered brines

from Guayatayoc Salar that have been concentrated by solar evaporation, and is processing these

brines at the pilot plant in Salta, Argentina. Lithium carbonate samples will be delivered to

downstream lithium manufacturers in China, Japan, Korea and Taiwan. One of these

manufacturers completed a tour of the salar and pilot plant on 9 June 2017.

Completion of the mass balance chemistry will enable the first phase of production modelling to

be completed. The second phase will be completed when production tests are finalized.

The Company is also pleased to announce that it has signed a land access agreement with the

Quebraleña community. This is a key part of the process to obtain our drilling permits. We have

had two meetings with the Director of Mines in Jujuy to get an update on the approval of our

environmental impact statement and drilling and seismic application.

Phil Thomas COO stated, “We are very pleased with progress to date. The brines evaporated

satisfactorily at the average rate of 4.5 kilograms of brine per square metre, per 24 hours. The

production of samples will assist us greatly with the feasibility studies to determine how much of

the raw materials we need. When the drilling permit is issued the seismic and drilling will be the

last part of our exploration investigations before we start modelling the processes in the plant.

The samples will assist us in our negotiations for off-take contracts of lithium carbonate.”

On Behalf of the Board of Directors,

A.I.S. Resources Limited.
