ACME Lithium Inc. (CSE: ACME) (OTC: ACLHF) (the “Company”, or “ACME”) is pleased to report that the Company has acquired by staking 58 new claims (“JR claims”) encompassing approximately 1,160 acres contiguous to the Company’s CC, CCP and SX lithium claims (“Project Claims”) located in Clayton Valley, Esmeralda County, Nevada – the centre of lithium development in the United States.

With the additional JR claims, ACME has nearly doubled its footprint in Clayton Valley, strategically protecting the north and northeastern portion of the basin. ACME’s exploration focus will be on key prospective lithium brine targets.

The Project Claims are contiguous to the south with the only lithium brine production operation in North America, NYSE-listed Albemarle’s Silver Peak Lithium mine, which has been in production since 1966.  In addition, the Project claims are contiguous with Pure Energy Minerals joint venture with Schlumberger Technology Corporation to the east.  The Project Claims are located on the northwestern part of Clayton Valley about 20 miles northwest of the county seat of Goldfield, NV, and approximately 30 miles southwest of Tonopah, NV. With extensive infrastructure nearby, Nevada is one of the best mining jurisdictions in the world.

As part of an area of inclusion, (see link to press release May 13, 2021) GeoXplor Corporation, will retain a 3% Gross Overriding Royalty.
