(ICM.V) (YQGB.F) (the "Company" or "Iconic") is pleased to announce that it has been granted a Notice of Intent (the "NOI") by the Bureau of Land Management (the "BLM") to commence its lithium brine drilling program at the Bonnie Claire Property (the "Property"), located 30 miles (48 km) north of Beatty, Nevada. The NOI grants Iconic the right to drill 6 of the 8 approved drill locations, that were applied for through the BLM. A drilling rig has been scheduled and will be mobilizing to the property.
 
The initial drilling program will consist of 3 vertical drill holes designed to test potential brine horizons, which have been identified by the Company's MT geophysical surveys (refer to June 19, 2016 News Release ). Drill targets will be spaced an average of 1.3 miles (2.1 km) apart and drilled to depths of 1,200 to 2,000 feet (365-610 m) deep. The brine target thickness to be tested, as defined by MT, ranges from 330 to 980 feet (100-300 m) thick.

International Lithium and Ganfeng Lithium Discover New Pegmatite at the Avalonia Lithium Project, Ireland

VANCOUVER, BC  June 9, 2016 / International Lithium Corp. (ILC.V) (the "Company" or "ILC") is pleased to announce that the Company has completed the drill programme announced on 11 April 2016 at the Avalonia Lithium Project located in Counties Carlow and Wicklow, Republic of Ireland.
 
Highlights of the drilling include the discovery of a new pegmatite body in the Aclare area. Three drill holes intersected the previously unknown pegmatite phase 450 metres east of the main Aclare pegmatites. This new pegmatite is hosted in a granite sill parallel and adjacent to the granite sill hosting the main Aclare pegmatites where drill hole ACL13-04 intersected 2.23% Li2O over a drill width of 23.3 metres, including 3.43% Li2O over 6 metres (Company news release dated June 25, 2013). All widths reported are drill widths and have not been converted into true widths. The discovery proves the lateral extent of the lithium pegmatite occurrences is greater than previously known, consequently opening more ground for potential discoveries.
