LITHIUM CHILE WELCOMES UPDATE FROM CHILEAN GOVERNMENT

TSX Venture Exchange: LITH For Immediate Release

OTC-QB: LTMCF

CALGARY, ALBERTA, April 21, 2023 – Lithium Chile Inc. (“Lithium Chile” or the “Company”) is pleased

with the recent statements from Chile’s President, Gabriel Boric in respect to their goal of advancing its

lithium industry through a public-private initiative.

In 1979, Chiles Government made lithium a strategic mineral, effectively nationalizing the industry and

making the advancement of Chilean lithium projects impossible for private companies. The proposed

initiative by President Boric to improve the domestic economy by advancing the lithium industry with

state involvement will create a transparent way for private companies to explore and develop their

assets.

The Company’s management team unanimously welcomes the news that the government plans not to

terminate current contracts and contributes the recent statement as having a positive impact on their

business.

Steve Cochrane, President & CEO comments, “The announcement from President Boric yesterday will

pave the way for private companies to be able to advance their projects in Chile. Contrary to

nationalizing the Lithium industry in Chile, they have established a partnership between the public and

private sectors that should allow for the rapid development of lithium projects in Chile. It is our opinion

that removing the uncertainty around developing Chile's lithium assets will create a lot of global interest

in Chilean Lithium projects and with our large exploration portfolio we are uniquely positioned to

capitalize on this revolutionary decision.”

The Company boasts one of the largest land portfolios in the junior mining sector with over 110,000

hectares of lithium rich properties. A drilling program is slated to begin in May 2023 on the Company’s

Llamara Project.

Michelle DeCecco, Vice President & COO adds, “Our confidence in our ability to move our projects

forward is reflected in the four well exploration program in Llamara, scheduled for mid-May. President

Boric understands the importance and benefits of private sector investment and involvement; it

encourages us to look for additional ways to invest in growth, technology, and partnerships with the

support of the Chilean government.”
