Ann: Drilling confirms large scale Lithium Brine Basin Kachi, page-52

Without much technical knowledge about the complexity of Lithium mining, although I am a shareholder, I'm always a bit unsure about a small company doing a lot of presentations and obviously trying to pump up their new projects, so I though I'd go out of the box to try for some "independent" opinions on Tuesday's announcement.

AS you know, NRG Metals from Canada are drilling in the same area that is included in that latest report from LKE.

So, hoping what would be as close as I'd get to a knowledgeable independent source for that opinion,
I decided to introduce myself to NRG , as a shareholder of LKE, and asked if they had seen the report and what they thought of it. It was a very simple basic question.

I got this reply back and I though you would like to read it. I didn't know if I could share that with others, so I asked him and he also replied to that.

HI ****, thank you for the email. And congratulations to Lake. Excellent discovery, great numbers, those chaps hung in when the going was tough. Really happy they were able to sample. This is shaping up to be a world class play for Lake and hopefully the same for NRG. You are invested in some very smart people, and I am certain they will continue with success.

I then asked him if I could share that email and this is his reply.

Onward !

Now, personally, considering the source of that email, I reckon that's as good as it gets.

I sent a copy to Steve and asked him about the criticism that he was receiving from some about the lack of news and he simply said :-
