Li-FT Power Ltd. (CSE: LIFT) (OTCQX: LIFFF) (Frankfurt: WS0) is pleased to report assays from 5 drill holes completed at the Shorty and BIG East pegmatites within the Yellowknife Lithium Project located outside the city of Yellowknife, Northwest Territories (Figure 1). Drilling has intersected significant intervals of spodumene mineralization, with the following highlights:

Highlights:

• YLP-0092: 18 m at 1.79% Li₂O, (BIG East)
      and: 7 m at 1.58% Li₂O.
• YLP-0064: 13 m at 1.55% Li₂O, (BIG East)
      and: 10 m at 1.04% Li₂O
• YLP-0063: 9 m at 1.09% Li₂O, (BIG East)
      and: 8 m at 1.26% Li₂O
  and: 3 m at 1.20% Li₂O.
• YLP-0060: 9 m at 1.21% Li₂O, (BIG East)
      and: 4 m at 1.39% Li₂O
  and: 3 m at 1.00% Li₂O.
• YLP-0059: 12 m at 1.04% Li₂O, (Shorty)

Francis MacDonald, CEO of LIFT comments, “BIG East has delivered the highest grade intersects from across the project to date in hole YLP0092 across excellent width. Our expectations from BIG East in terms of grades and widths continue to be exceeded.”

Discussion of Results

This news release includes assay results for one hole from the Shorty pegmatite (YLP-0059) and four from the BIG East pegmatite dyke swarm (YLP-0060, 63, 64, 92). A table of composite calculations and some general comments related to this discussion are provided towards the end of this release.

BIG East

The BIG East pegmatite swarm comprises a 35-80 m wide corridor of parallel-trending dykes that dips around 55°-75° west and extends for at least 1,000 metres along surface and 200 metres downdip.

Figure 1 – Location of LIFT’s Yellowknife Lithium Project. Drilling is focused on the Road Access Group of pegmatites which are located to the east of the city of Yellowknife along a government-maintained paved highway, as well as the Echo target in the Further Afield Group.

YLP-0060 was designed to test the BIG East swarm approximately 300 m from its northern end and 50 vertical metres beneath the surface. Drilling intersected three pegmatite dykes that assayed intervals of 1.21% Li₂O over 9 m, 1.39% Li₂O over 4 m, and 1.00% Li₂O over 3 m.

YLP-0063 was designed to test the BIG East pegmatite approximately 250 m from its southern end and 100 vertical metres beneath the surface. Drilling intersected five pegmatite dykes, with the three uppermost of returning assay composites of 1.26% Li₂O over 8 m, 1.09% Li₂O over 9 m, and 1.20% Li₂O over 3 m. The lower dykes returned negligible grade.

YLP-0064 tested the BIG East swarm approximately 200 m from its northern end and 50 vertical metres beneath the surface. Drilling intersected two dykes that returned assay composites of 1.04% Li₂O over 10 m and 1.55% Li₂O over 13 m.

YLP-0092 tested the BIG East swarm approximately 350 metres from its southern tip and 150 vertical metres beneath the surface. Drilling intersected four dykes, with the second and third ones returning 1.72% Li₂O over 18 m and 1.58% Li₂O over 7 m. The upper- and lower-most dykes returned negligible grades (Table 1 and 2, Figures 3, 4, 5 and 6).

Shorty

The Shorty pegmatite comprises a braided zone of dykes that dips 50°-70° to the west-northwest and extends for at least 600 m on surface and 200 m downdip. LIFT drilling shows the pegmatite may comprise a single dyke up to 20 m wide or 2-4 dykes, mostly 1-15 m wide, within a 30-40 m wide corridor (Table 1 and 2, Figures 6 and 7).

YLP-0059 was designed to test the Shorty pegmatite 200 m from its southern end and 50 m vertically below surface, with drilling intersecting dykes from 45-51 m and 57-71 m core depth. Assays returned 1.04% Li₂O over 12 m for the lower dyke. The upper dyke returned no significant results.

Drilling Progress Update

Currently, LIFT has reported results from 67 diamond drill holes (11,808 metres). To date, 192 diamond drill holes have been completed (32,299 metres).

General Statements

All five holes described in this news release were drilled at azimuths between 120°-125° and dips of 45°-50°, broadly perpendicular to the dyke orientation. True thickness of these intercepts will therefore range somewhere between 65-100% of the drilled widths. A collar header table is provided below.

Mineralogical characterization for the YLP pegmatites is in progress through hyper spectral core scanning and X-ray diffraction work. Visual core logging indicates that the predominant host mineral is spodumene whereas other significant non-lithium bearing phases include quartz and feldspar.

QA/QC and Core Sampling Protocols

All drill core samples were collected under the supervision of LIFT employees and contractors. Drill core was transported from the drill platform to the core processing facility where it was logged, photographed, and split by diamond saw prior to being sampled. Samples were then bagged, and blanks and certified reference materials were inserted at regular intervals. Field duplicates consisting of quarter-cut core samples were also included in the sample runs. Groups of samples were placed in large bags, sealed with numbered tags in order to maintain a chain-of-custody, and transported from LIFT’s core logging facility to ALS Labs (“ALS”) laboratory in Yellowknife, Northwest Territories.

Sample preparation and analytical work for this drill program were carried out by ALS. Samples were prepared for analysis according to ALS method CRU31: individual samples were crushed to 70% passing through 2 mm (10 mesh) screen; a 1,000-gram sub-sample was riffle split (SPL-21) and then pulverized (PUL-32) such that 85% passed through 75-micron (200 mesh) screen. A 0.2-gram sub-sample of the pulverized material was then dissolved in a sodium peroxide solution and analysed for lithium according to ALS method ME-ICP82b. Another 0.2-gram sub-sample of the pulverized material was analysed for 53 elements according to ALS method ME-MS89L. All results passed the QA/QC screening at the lab, all inserted standards and blanks returned results that were within acceptable limits.
