Wealth Minerals Signs Memorandum of Understanding with
Voith Hydro
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE… Vancouver, British Columbia: Wealth Minerals Ltd. (the “Company” or
“Wealth”) – (TSXV: WML; OTCQB: WMLLF; SSE: WMLCL; FSE: EJZN) announces that it has entered
into a Memorandum of Understanding (the “MOU”) with Voith Hydro Holding GmbH & Co KG (“Voith
Hydro”) to develop the Pabellón Lithium Project (see press releases of February 6, 2025 and March 18,
2025) jointly with the Quechua Indigenous Community of Ollagüe (“CIQO”) and further partners.
Under the terms of this MOU, Voith Hydro owns 5% of Wealth`s portfolio of mineral exploration licenses
in the area. The Pabellón Lithium Project and its respective assets, including the mining rights in the area,
will be transferred to Kuska Minerals SpA (“Kuska Minerals”), which is 95% owned by the Company and
5% owned by the Quechua Indigenous Community of Ollagüe (see press release of May 27, 2025). Then a
Chilean legal company (the “JV”) will be formed whereby Kuska Minerals SpA will own 95% of the
Pabellón Lithium Project and Voith Hydro will own the remaining 5%.
Voith Hydro, via this MOU, will bring its know-how and existing partnerships to bear on an application for
a CEOL (Special Lithium Operating Contract), which will allow the JV to move forward with potentially
developing a lithium recovery circuit on the thermal power generation station “Cerro Pabellón” (see press
release of February 6, 2025) subject to reaching an agreement with the existing operator, or eventually
developing a separate lithium extraction operation in its mining concessions.
Hendrik van Alphen, Wealth’s CEO, said “In addition to having the CIQO as our partners for any Lithium
project in the Salar de Ollague area, we are excited to welcome Voith Hydro as a partner to develop the
Pabellón Lithium Project using Direct Lithium Extraction technology together with further partners”.
Jan Lüder, Voith Hydro’s CEO, said “We are pleased to support this opportunity in Chile and to contribute
our expertise in energy systems that contribute to a renewable energy transition. Having equipped the Los
Condores hydropower plant — a project that h elped build trusted partnerships in the country — we look
forward to working with all Chilean partners on the Pabellón Lithium project.”

About Wealth Minerals Ltd.
Wealth is a mineral resource company with interests in Canada and Chile. The Company’s focus is the
acquisition and development of lithium projects in South America.
The Company opportunistically advances battery metal projects where it has a peer advantage in project
selection and initial evaluation. Lithium market dynamics and a rapidly increasing metal price are the result
of profound structural issues with the industry meeting anticipated future demand. Wealth is positioning
itself to be a major beneficiary of this future mismatch of supply and demand. In parallel with lithium
market dynamics, Wealth believes other battery metals will benefit from similar industry trends.
