[{"type":"text","content":"International Lithium Corp. Outlines Tanco-Style Targets With Up to 339 PPM Caesium From Lithogeochemical Survey Results at Raleigh Lake Lithium and Rubidium Project in Ontario, CanadaVancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - January 17, 2022) - International Lithium Corp. (TSXV: ILC) (the \"Company\" or \"ILC\") is pleased to announce results from the lithogeochemistry program on the Company's 100% owned Raleigh Lake lithium, caesium and rubidium project in Ontario, Canada. Further to a news release dated December 16, 2021, early analysis of the results confirms there are over 15 new coincident lithium, caesium and rubidium anomalies in predominantly meta-volcanic host rocks. These targets within the newly surveyed portion of the Raleigh Lake Greenstone Belt are highly prospective for Tanco-style lithium bearing pegmatite mineralization.HighlightsThe 4,000 hectare lithogeochemical survey identified over 15 new drill targets for highly prospective lithium-caesium-rubidium bearing pegmatites. Anomalies tend to be clustered at or near interpreted structural corridors and within uniform host lithologies suggesting close proximity to a buried pegmatite source.The Caesium results are more isolated than the other elements, a reflection of its mobility. An exceptional result of 339 ppm Cs is located in a very accessible location and will be a priority for drilling.Zone 5, an underexplored 4 kilometre wide structural corridor stretching along strike from Pegmatite 1 and 3 toward the Two Mica Granite, has 5 high priority targets for Tanco-style mineralization.Some of the targets identified in Zones 1 and 3 are currently permitted for drilling and will form part of the next drilling program which will be started as soon as possible.Additional targets are identified on recently staked claims south of Raleigh Lake, an area now referred to as Zone 6.Based on these results, an additional 840 hectares of mineral claims were staked to buffer the Zone 5 target area.The area surveyed covers 8.2% of the total 48,500 hectares of the Company's claims, leaving upside from another 44,500 hectares including the 20 pegmatites announced in the Company's December 16 news release.John Wisbey, Chairman and CEO of International Lithium Corp. commented:\"These results are at the upper end of our expectations.
