Toronto, Ontario (September 28, 2023) – IberAmerican Lithium Corp. (Cboe: IBER) (the “Company”) is pleased to announce that it has acquired from Strategic Minerals Europe Corp. (Cboe: SNTA), for CDN$1 million in cash, the remaining 30% interest in the investigation permit No 5186 and the application for investigation permit No 5191 related to the Alberta II and Carlota lithium projects, respectively, located in Spain (the “Lithium Projects”). With this acquisition, IberAmerican now holds 100% of the rights to the Lithium Projects.

Upon receipt of the permits that will allow for commencement of an exploration program, IberAmerican will initially focus on a diamond drilling program during Q4 of 2023 of approximately 40-50 holes in the northern section of the Alberta II permit area, focusing on the spodumene and specifically expanding the drilling previously performed on the permit area in 2012 in order to gain more information about the mineralization. The Company will be also undertaking an extensive geological sampling program in the south section of Alberta II. Mr. Becher added, “We are excited to be commencing this robust exploration program and expect to be able to announce preliminary results from initial drilling and survey activities in Q1 2024.”
