AMERIWEST LITHIUM CLOSES PRIVATE PLACEMENT

**NOT FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES

OR FOR DISTRIBUTION TO UNITED STATES WIRE SERVICES**

Vancouver, BC – June 30, 2025: Ameriwest Lithium Inc. (“Ameriwest” or the “ Company”)

(CSE: A WLI) (OTC: AWLIF) (FSE: 5HV0) announces that the Company has closed its

previously-announced non-brokered private placement for gross proceeds of $900,629.33 (the

“Private Placement”), including the conversion of $554,629.33 in debt owing to various creditors.

In the Private Placement, the Company issued an aggregate of 9,006,292 units (each, a “Unit”) at

a price of $0.10 per Unit, with each Unit consisting of one common share the capital of the

Company (each, a “Common Share”) and one-half of one transferable Common Share purchase

warrant (each, a “ Warrant”). Each full Warrant entitle s the holder thereof to purchase one

additional Common Share for a period of two years at an exercise price of $0.12 per Common

Share.

No finder’s fees were paid in connection with the Private Placement. The Company expects to use

the net proceeds of the Private Placement , being $346,000, for general corporate and working

capital purposes, and to complete the Company’s previously announced acquisition of the Bornite

Copper Project. For additional information regarding that property, please refer to the Company’s

news release dated April 4, 2025.

All but 450,000 of the Common Shares and Warrants issued in connection with the Private

Placement and Debt Conversion are subject to a hold period of four months and a day in

accordance with applicable Canadian securities laws.

One insider of the Company acquired a total of 330,000 Units in the Private Placement upon the

conversion of $33,000 worth of debt . The issuance of those Units constitutes a “related party

transaction” as that term is defined in Multilateral Instrument 61 -101 Protection of Minority

Security Holders in Special Transactions (“MI 61-101”). The Company is relying on exemptions

from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements under MI 61-101, and

in particular, Sections 5.5(a) and 5.7(1)(a) of MI 61 -101, as neither the fair market value of

the Units subscribed for by the insider, nor the consideration for the Units paid by the insider,

exceeds 25% of the Company’s market capitalization.
