(TSXV: ILC) (the \"Company\" or \"ILC\") in conjunction with strategic partner Pioneer Resources Limited (ASX: PIO) (\"Pioneer\") have initiated drilling at the Mavis lithium pegmatite project east of Dryden, Ontario, Canada (\"Project\"). Key Highlights: 1,200-1,500 meter winter drill program commences under ideal site conditions; High grade spodumene Pegmatite 18 area exhibits favourable structural regime indicating potential for larger pegmatites; Magnetometer survey and lithogeochemical sampling program reveal pegmatite setting and new target areas; and Results produce highly anomalous lithium rock-sample area leading to the discovery of a new pegmatite to be drill tested during this program. \"We are very pleased that the drill program at Mavis has commenced. The combined dedication of the ILC Team and joint venture partner Pioneer Resources Limited to move this program forward is wholly affirmed by the merits of the Project;\" states Kirill Klip, Chairman, President and CEO International Lithium Corp. \"Strategic partnerships are the cornerstone of our business model. They provide International Lithium with considerable access to capital and the vital technology necessary to advance and develop our projects\" Mavis Lithium Project 2017 Drill Program Location MapTo view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:http://orders.newsfilecorp.com/files/3232/24958_newsx1x1-enhanced.jpgMavis Drill Program The majority of the exploration activities performed in 2016 have been in preparation for this drill program. A continuous reading ground magnetometer walking survey (\"Mag Survey\") totalling 330 kms was completed over the target areas of the Project. The Mag Survey successfully produced a very detailed magnetic map outlining geologic contacts, features and structures thereby providing a valuable tool to aid in the drill targeting process. In order to refine the targets further, two campaigns of ground lithogeochemical sampling totalling 372 rock samples were collected from mafic volcanic host rocks at select locations across the Project. The rock sample results returned areas exhibiting highly anomalous ...
