Imagine Lithium Reports up to 2.88% Li2O From

Channel Samples 1 km Southwest of Jackpot Main

Zone

November 29, 2022 Vancouver, BC, Canada – IMAGINE LITHIUM INC. (the

“Company” or “Imagine”) (ILI-TSX:V) (OTCQB:ARXRF) is pleased to announce assay

results from channel samples collected as part of its prospecting program on the

Jackpot lithium property located in the Georgia Lake Area about 140 km NNE of

Thunder Bay, Ontario. The channel samples were collected in an area approximately

1 km southwest of the Jackpot Main Zone where analyzed grab samples provided

significant Li2O concentrations (see September 7, 2022 Press release).

Highlights of the channel results reported today include:

10.3 m @ 1.23% Li2O, including 4.0 m @ 2.88% Li2O; and

10.00 m @ 1.02% Li2O, including 6.00 m @ 1.56% Li2O.

J.C. St-Amour, President of Imagine commented, “I am very pleased with the channel

samples as they were taken from the southwest region of the property that delivered

previously reported mineralized lithium grab samples, meaning this section of the

property seems well mineralized at surface. Not only do es this area justify further

exploration work , but our prospecting program has identified several spodumene

bearing pegmatite dikes within 2 km of the Jackpot Main Zone that provide additional

targets for future exploration and drill programs. We are confident that in addition to

expanding the Jackpot deposit through our current drill program, we will have

potential to find additional deposits on the broader Jackpot property.”

All five channels taken from Site 1, where a spodumene-bearing pegmatite was traced

over 80 m, returned intervals containing lithium grades ranging from 0.64% to 2.88%

Li2O (see Figure 1 and Table 1). Five additional sites submitted to channel sampling

also returned intervals containing 0.75% to 2.15% Li 2O. The area to the west and

southwest of Jackpot include s several spodumene bearing pegmatite outcrops

including some that have been traced for between 80 m and 200 m (Figure 1). The

Company plans to complete follow-up prospecting and sampling work in this including

additional drilling.

QA/QC Protocol

Imagine Lithium implemented a strict QA/QC protocol in processing all rock samples

collected from the core material obtained from the Jackpot property. The protocol

included the insertion and monitoring of appropriate reference materials, in this case

high concentration and low concentration certified OREAS lithium standards, blanks

and duplicates, to validate the accuracy and precision of the assay results. All

collected rock samples were put in sturdy plastic bags, tagged, and sealed in the core

shack under the supervision of professional geologists. Sample bags were then put in

rice pouches and kept securely before being sent by road transpor t to the Actlabs

laboratories in Thunder Bay, Ontario. Lithium was analyzed by Peroxide Fusion ICP-

OES method (8-Li package).

About Jackpot

The Jackpot Lithium property, located in the Georgia Lake Area about 140 km NNE of

Thunder Bay, Ontario, is approximately 12 km by air from the TransCanada Highway

(Hwy 11) and the main railroad which connects to the port town of Nipigon, on Lake

Superior. The property contains known lithium bearing granitic pegmatite dikes, of

which two provided estimated historical resources of 2 million tons at 1.09% Li2O and

750,000 tons at 1.38% Li2O*.

About Imagine Lithium Inc.

Imagine Lithium is a junior mining exploration company focused on seeking and

acquiring world -class mineral projects. The company holds the J ackpot lithium

property located near Nipigon, Ont. , which contains known pegmatite showings

including two historical resources of 2 million tons grading 1.09% Li 2O and 750,000

tons at 1.38% Li2O.

* The estimates presented above are treated as historic information and have not been verified or relied

upon for economic evaluation by the Company. These historical mineral resources do not refer to any

category of sections 1.2 and 1.3 of NI-43-101 such as mineral resources or mineral reserves as stated in the

2010 CIM Definition Standards on Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves. The explanation lies in the

inability by the Company to verify the data acquired by the various historical drilling campaigns. The

Company has not done sufficient work yet to classify the historical estimates as current mineral resources

or mineral reserves.
