(TSXV: ILC) (the \"Company\" or \"ILC\"), in conjunction with its joint venture partner, Pioneer Resources Limited (\"Pioneer\"), is pleased to provide the results of a successful drilling program at the Mavis Lake Lithium Project in the province of Ontario, Canada (see Company news releases February 19, 2018 and January 23, 2018).The program, targeting the Fairservice Pegmatite 6 Prospect, consisted of nine diamond core holes for a total of 1,591 metres, and delivered multiple intersections of spodumene-bearing pegmatite in all nine holes.As reported in Pioneer's April 6, 2018 news release, seven of the nine drillholes intersected significant mineralization.STANDOUT INTERSECTION* | MF18-53: 55.25m at 1.04% Li2O from 82.75mOther intersections* of spodumene-bearing pegmatites returned:MF18-58: 28.95m at 1.14% Li2O from 116.8mMF18-51: 23.30m at 1.09% Li2O from 76.8mMF18-52: 13.45m at 1.17% Li2O from 149.95mMF18-54: 18.20m at 1.27% Li2O from 94.8m andMF18-54: 6.10m at 2.33% Li2O from 139.25 MF18-55: 12.35m at 1.41% Li2O from 135.14m* All reported widths are drill hole widths and have not been converted to true width. True width is unknown at this time.Pioneer states in its news release that these drilling results enhance the prospectivity of the project, with Pioneer's Managing Director, David Crook, announcing, \"The 2018 step-out drilling program confirmed and improved upon the very encouraging lithium intersections achieved in the 2017 drilling program.\"ABOUT THE MAVIS LAKE FAIRSERVICE PROSPECTThe Fairservice Prospect of the Mavis Lake Project comprises a swarm of 6 pegmatites that outcrop at surface over an east-west strike length of 700m.Drilling completed during the 2018 winter intersected the Fairservice Pegmatite 6, generally between 100 and 140m vertically below surface along a strike length of 200m.Results of drilling complemented 2017 drill results in this area, with all 2018 holes intersecting one or two mineralized pegmatite lenses on step-outs of between 20 and 40m.Future drilling will test the spodumene-bearing pegmatite further along strike and at progressively shallower depths.Table 1: Significant Drill Re...
