The drill program is planned to begin in early 2016, following receipt of all BLM approvals.  For further information on Neptune including a map showing its location and planned drill holes please visit \"Projects – Nevada Lithium\" at:  http://www.nevadasunrise.ca/projects/nevadalithium/\n\n2015 Neptune Exploration and Land ManagementThe southern Clayton Valley area demonstrates enrichment in lithium in the nearby mountain ranges, desert sediments and in local plants. Nevada Sunrise has carried out ASTER spectral analysis of satellite imagery over the Property and surrounding areas of the Clayton Valley. Results indicate lithium-bearing clay is derived from bedrock in areas to the north, west and southeast of Neptune. Biogeochemical data collected by the Company in October 2015 has confirmed anomalous lithium concentrations ranging from 11 ppm up to 35 ppm in a specific desert plant common to the Clayton Valley and sampled near the planned Neptune drill holes. &#xA...
