October 16th, 2015 – Toronto, Ontario – Matica Enterprises Inc. (MMJ – CSE) (39N – Frankfurt) (MQPXF – OTC) (“Matica” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that Matica has signed an agreement to acquire the 14 claim 280 acre Clayton Valley Lithium Project in Nevada. Matica has been reviewing potential lithium brine projects in Nevada since the Company acquired the Grumpy Lizard Graphite Project. The Company has identified both graphite and lithium as key strategic materials in the production chain of lithium-ion batteries which are used to power electric vehicles such as the Bruce 22e launch produced by Canadian Electric Boat Company recently acquired by Matica (see September 23, 2015 News Release).
The Clayton Valley Lithium Project is favourably located between Nevada Sun’s Neptune project and Pure Energy’s Clayton South project, which is adjacent to Matica’s claims. Clayton Valley is also the site of the only lithium brine production operation in North America, the Silver Peak lithium mine, which has been in production since 1966. The Company intends to commence a work program on the project as soon as the acquisition is completed.
Boris Ziger, Matica CEO states: “This is an incredible opportunity to expand our footprint in the green materials space. It is one of Matica’s goals to develop a one stop shop for green materials. We believe that the green revolution is upon us and that electric vehicles are an important part of our new present. Matica is a part of this revolution with electric boats and now both graphite and lithium projects required for batteries and we intend to establish ourselves as a progressive green company.”
The acquisition terms of this arm’s length transaction are $10,000 cash and the issue of six million common shares of Company for 100 per cent of the property with no royalties associated, subject to regulatory approval. The property consists of 14 unpatented placer claims covering 280 acres located in the Clayton Valley of Esmeralda County, Nevada. Matica’s initial work program will include prospecting, mapping, and sampling. Matica continues to evaluate additional graphite and lithium projects for acquisition.
