"ALIX REPORTS 3,762 PPM LITHIUM AT WHITE BASIN, NEVADA
Alix Resources Corp. has begun exploration at its 100-per-cent-held White Basin lithium property in Nevada. The White Basin property includes 25 unpatented mineral claims comprising 500 acres and is located roughly 75 kilometers northeast of Las Vegas. Sampling on the property has returned values as high as 3,762ppm Li from six composite samples of the Horse Spring Formation.

Sampling by the Company has confirmed elevated lithium with results provided in the table below.
