American Lithium Corp. announced that the Bureau of Land Management (“BLM”) and the Nevada Division of Environmental Protection (“NDEP”) have approved the Plan of Operations (”PO”) and Reclamation Plan for the next phases of development and exploration work at the Company's Tonopah Lithium Claims Project (“TLC”) located near Tonopah, Nevada. The BLM and NDEP approvals follow the completion of an EA on the project that included a 30-day public comment process, and the NDEP's review of the sufficiency of the reclamation bond amount.

The BLM received several letters of support for the project from the public and Nye County during the public comment period for the Environmental Assessment. American Lithium has provided a $1,415,666 reclamation bond to the BLM and NDEP, through its surety agent, Smith Manus. As such, all approvals are now in place to commence drilling.

Q & D Construction LLC has been contracted to provide a sonic core drill rig to complete the in-fill and resource extension drilling planned under the PO on the existing TLC deposit, as well as additional exploration drilling outside the existing TLC resource area. This drill will complement the existing reverse circulation drill presently conducting exploration drilling at TLC North (Crescent Dunes). Drilling at TLC will commence shortly.
