Metallurgical Testing Commences on Lithium Enriched Clays and Trenching Results from Agua Fria at Electra Project, Sonora, Mexico and Announces Flow Through Financing

http://www.alixresources.com/index.php?page=news&id=1221

January 24, 2017, Vancouver, BC, Canada – ALIX RESOURCES CORP. (“Alix” or the “Company”) (AIX-TSX:V) (37N–FRANKFURT) announces the commencement of Agua Fria (Mexico) metallurgical testing and trench results.

Highlights

  • Trench samples demonstrate high lithium grades (up to 1340 ppm)
  • Preparations underway for the February 2017 drilling campaign
  • Li-mineralized clays extended to over 5 km on strike
  • Metallurgical testing commenced

Metallurgical evaluation

Alix and joint venture partner Lithium Australia NL (ASX: LIT) have dispatched the first samples from Agua Fria (part of the Electra Project, Sonora Mexico, Figure 1) for metallurgical testing at the Kappes Cassiday & Associates facilities (Reno, NV).

Twenty four samples obtained through shallow trenching of the mineralized zone at Agua Fria will be examined to determine:

  • Mineralogy
  • Lithium distribution
  • Lithium grade
  • Scope for beneficiation
  • By-product potential
  • Grade of by-products

Metallurgical testing will proceed in parallel with a drilling campaign planned for February 2017, with the aim of determining the best beneficiation method for the mineralized material and also obtaining the preferred commercial process of recovering specific metals. LIT and Alix consider efficient beneficiation to be of paramount importance in developing a commercial outcome for these deposits. LIT’s experience in hydrometallurgical process development will be of great benefit in evaluating and testing the beneficiation process to lithium extraction and finally production of lithium carbonate and hydroxide.
