Nevada Lithium Exploration, Inc. to File and Present NI 43-101 Technical Report for the Prometheus Project at Fastmarkets' 17th Lithium Supply & Battery Conference
Reno, NV June 23, 2025 --( )-- The Company will formally release the report during the Fastmarkets' 17th Lithium Supply & Battery Materials Conference, to be held June 23-26, 2025, at the Red Rock Resort in Las Vegas, Nevada. Nevada Lithium's President G.W. Bush, will represent the Company at the premier global gathering of lithium and battery materials stakeholders. The Prometheus Lithium + Rare Earth Elements (REEs) Project encompasses approximately 6000 acres situated on the western flank and slope of the Weepah Hills in Esmeralda County, Nevada. The property lies in a prime geological corridor-positioned between two major drainage tributaries that flow into Clayton Valley and Big Smokey Valley, both known for their lithium-rich sediments. The Prometheus Project shares a four-mile boundary with the geothermal lease held by Chevron and Baseload Capital in the Weepah Hills, highlighting strong potential for synergies with renewable energy development. Nevada Lithium Exploration's claim-block is located just 10 minutes north of Albermarle's Clayton Valley Operation--the only producing lithium brine mine in the United States and 15 minutes to the east of Ioneer's Rhyolite Ridge Lithium-Boron Project, the Prometheus Project lies within the heart of Nevada's globally significant lithium belt. 'We're excited to advance the Prometheus Project, which represents a significant step forward in securing domestic critical mineral supply for the clean energy transition,' said Bob Marvin, P. Geo Consulting Geologist at Nevada Lithium Exploration, Inc. 'Our initial results demonstrate the potential for a polymetallic deposit containing lithium, REEs, and other critical and precious metals.' Contact Information: Nevada Lithium Exploration, Inc. G.W.

Feds propose ESA protections for Nevada fish near potential lithium mine
The modest Fish Lake Valley tui chub can now claim some bragging rights, as the Nevada fish on Tuesday became the first animal or plant to be proposed for Endangered Species Act protections during the second Trump administration. Prompted by a March 2021 petition filed by the Center for Biological Diversity and further goosed by a subsequent lawsuit filed two years later by the same group, the Fish and Wildlife Service said it has determined the fish warrants listing as endangered. 'We identified agricultural production, lithium mining, geothermal development, changes in habitat management, climate change, and invasive species as the primary threats currently affecting the Fish Lake Valley tui chub,' the Fish and Wildlife Service stated in a notice set for publication in the Federal Register on Wednesday. Advertisement The fish is a small minnow native to the Fish Lake Valley basin, which includes parts of both Nevada and California. All of the tui chubs in the valley have been found in Esmeralda County, Nevada.
