(TSXV: ILC) (OTCQB: ILHMF) (FSE: IAH) (the \"Company\" or \"ILC\") is pleased to announce assay results for Phase 1 of the diamond drilling program at the Raleigh Lake Lithium project near Ignace, Ontario, Canada.Further to Company news releases dated February 9, March 21, and May 17, 2022; ILC is conducting a minimum of 5,000 metres core drilling at the Raleigh Lake project in two phases. Phase 1 ran during the winter months of March and April 2022 where ten (10) holes were drilled for a total of 2,053 metres (Table 1 and Figure 1). Eight holes targeted Pegmatite 1 in Zone 1 and two holes targeted Pegmatite 2 in Zone 2. All drill holes in Zone 1 encountered spodumene bearing pegmatites.Drilling HighlightsAll holes testing Pegmatite 1 in Zone 1 cored spodumene-bearing pegmatite demonstrating confidence and continuity in the body (see Figure 2).Pegmatite 1 shows a distinct zonation with an accumulation of rubidium enriched monocrystalline megacrystic microcline occurring in the roof portion of the modelled pegmatite (see Photos 1 -3).Pegmatite 1 Spodumene Zone Intersection Highlights*RL22-09: 10.15 metres (estimated true thickness of 8.5 metres) grading 2.4% Li2O (from 89.95 metres) including 7.05 metres (5.9 metres true thickness) averaging 3.46% Li2O in the spodumene core zone (from 93.05m);RL22-10: 21.45 metres (estimated true thickness of 13 metres) grading 1.29% Li2O (from 127.12 metres) including 9.05 metres (estimated true thickness of 5.48 metres) averaging 2.46% Li2O in the spodumene core zone (from 131.95m);RL22-11: 13.08 metres grading 1.09% Li2O (from 119.38 metres) including 6.56 metres averaging 1.51% Li2O in the lower spodumene core zone (from 125.9m);RL22-14: 3.46 metres grading 1.53% Li2O (from 26.11 metres) in Pegmatite 3 and 7.07 metres averaging 1.08% Li2O (from 132.73 metres) in Pegmatite 1.Pegmatite 1 Rubidium Bearing Microcline Intersection Highlights*RL22-09: 4.2 metres (estimated true thickness of 3.52 metres) grading 0.81% Rb2O (from 89.45 metres);RL22-12: 5.9 metres grading 1.38% Rb2O from 116.5 metres;RL22-13: 6.83 metres grading 0.87% Rb2O from 88 metres...
