Acquisition of Quebec Lithium Limited
Metals Australia Ltd (ASX: MLS) (“ MLS” or the “Company” ) is pleased to announce that it has entered into a binding Heads of Agreement (“ Agreement ”) to acquire 100% of the issued capital of Quebec Lithium Limited (ACN 614 157 630) ( “QLL” ), an exploration company focused on technology-driven exploration projects, primarily graphite and lithium, with exploration projects in Quebec, Canada.
The execution of the Agreement follows legal and technical due diligence completed by MLS on the one graphite and three lithium projects owned by QLL.
QLL has acquired 100% of the Lac Rainy Nord graphite project and 100% of the Lac La Motte, Lac La Corne and Lacourciere-Darveau lithium projects, located in Quebec.
Chairman of MLS, Mr Solomon Majteles commented on the milestone acquisition of QLL, stating:
“We are excited to be committing to the graphite and lithium space during this period of massive technological transformation. MLS has made a strategic decision to focus on this burgeoning sector. Our goal is to develop a portfolio of assets across several geographical and political jurisdictions to take advantage of the exponentially growing battery market and to provide portfolio diversity to maximise upside to shareholders.”
“QLL have assembled an exciting portfolio of graphite and lithium exploration assets in Quebec. The Lac Rainy Nord graphite project is located in the dominant graphite endowed regions of Quebec near to the historic mining town of Fermont, whilst the three lithium projects are located in the Abitibi region, which is recognised as the pre-eminent location for lithium deposits in Canada.”
“The Lac Rainy Nord project is host to a high grade graphite occurrence with several other primary mineralised targets identified. The Lac La Motte project is located near existing developed lithium occurrences in extensively mapped LCT pegmatite dyke swarms. The Lac La Corne project hosts a significant spodumene outcrop containing spodumene in high concentrations. We are excited by the deal with QLL and are looking forward to commencing our exploration and drilling campaigns.”
The acquisition of QLL represents an outstanding opportunity to explore, develop and operate in a region with a well understood geological setting and all regional infrastructure in place necessary to establish a low-cost production operation.
The acquisition of QLL will, when completed, provide MLS with a diversified portfolio of exploration projects which are aligned to technological driven growth and complement the existing high grade Manindi zinc project owned by MLS.
MLS and QLL are also considering additional projects for joint venture or acquisition, including additional graphite projects located in Quebec.
Acquisition Terms
MLS has signed a binding Heads of Agreement with QLL and its shareholders to acquire 100% of the issued capital of QLL, the owner of the Lac Rainy Nord graphite project and the Lac La Motte, Lac La Corne and Lacourciere-Darveau lithium projects in Quebec (the “ QLL Projects ”). Schedule 1 provides a list of the mineral claims and mineral claim applications that comprise the QLL Projects.
4
MLS has agreed to provide QLL shareholders with total consideration of $70,000 payable in cash together with the issue of 150,000,000 fully paid ordinary shares at a deemed issue price of $0.002 per share (" Consideration Shares ) and the issue of 150,000,000 options with an exercise price of $0.003 per share expiring on 1 December 2019 ( Consideration Options ).
The acquisition is subject to a number of conditions precedent including obtaining necessary MLS Shareholder and regulatory approvals, the completion of due diligence by both parties to their satisfaction and MLS raising at least $250,000 by way of a capital raising.
The condition precedent must be satisfied by 30 November 2016 (or such later date as the parties agree).
MLS will seek shareholder approvals required for the acquisition at its Annual General Meeting, and anticipates dispatching an AGM Notice of Meeting and accompanying explanatory statement to Shareholders in the coming week, with the AGM to be held in November 2016.
If Shareholders approve the acquisition of QLL, MLS will complete the acquisition shortly thereafter.
The Agreement contains other standard clauses for an agreement of this nature, including warranties by both parties and restrictions on the conduct of QLL’s business prior to settlement. On settlement, the board of QLL is to resign and be replaced by nominees of MLS.
Quebec Lithium Limited
QLL is an unlisted Australian public company that has acquired a portfolio of graphite and lithium exploration projects in Quebec, Canada.
These projects known as Lac Rainy Nord, Lac La Motte, Lac La Corne and Lacourciere-Darveau (the “ QLL Projects ”) are all located in well-known geological environments and are host to existing graphite occurrences in the case of Lac Rainy Nord and extensively mapped LCT pegmatite dyke swarms and known lithium and beryl occurrences in the case of Lac La Motte, Lac La Corne and Lacourciere-Darveau.
The Lac La Motte and Lac La Corne lithium projects are situated within the Abitibi Greenstone Belt – the complex forming one of the best prospective areas for lithium mineralization. The Lac Rainy Nord graphite project is located in the most dominant graphite geological regions of Quebec, approximately 22km southwest of the historic mining town of Fermont.
The QLL Projects are comprised of a total of 336 mineral claims and 53 mineral claim applications which cover an aggregate area of approximately 212.1 km[2] .
Each mineral claim has either been formally granted, resulting in the grant of active mineral claims by the Quebec mines department or is an application pending grant subject to “Villegiature-status” where additional consultation with First Nations is required. Exploration activities are permitted on the “Villegiature-status” mineral claims.
The acquisition of QLL, when completed, will allow MLS to diversify its project suite and take advantage of the transformational growth of technology driven commodities such as graphite and lithium.
The growing demand for “green” energy and the emergence of the energy storage market has meant that graphite and lithium remain key inputs into this technologically advancing sector. MLS
5
and QLL are seeking to capitalise on this growth, focused on emerging projects in North America, close to potential offtake partners and end user groups.

Figure 1. Lithium Project Location Map
The QLL Projects are located in the established mining-friendly province of Quebec with access to all required infrastructure, mining related services, utilities and a trained workforce that will be required to undertake exploration and development.
The area also boasts the facilities to commence mining and the production of spodumene concentrate as well as value-added products such as lithium carbonate and lithium hydroxide.
The favourable political, social and mining environment of Quebec has resulted in it being ranked the sixth best-ranked mining jurisdiction in the world by the Fraser Institute. This makes Quebec an ideal location to do business, with a well-established mining industry already present.
Quebec is also an ideal jurisdiction to operate and produce value-added lithium products due to its favourable proximity to end-users based in the United States.
Access to low-cost hydro-generated electricity means that the processing of spodumene concentrate into lithium carbonate and lithium hydroxide can be achieved through established and
6
industry scale tested hydro-metallurgical electrolysis processes, such as those being adopted by Nemaska Lithium Inc. (TSX: NMX) at the Whabouchi Mine.
All of the four projects are easily accessible by all-weather roads.

Lac Rainy Nord Graphite Project
The Lac Rainy Nord graphite project is located in the most dominant graphite geological regions of Quebec, approximately 22km southwest of the historic mining town of Fermont and 260km north-north-east of city of Sept-Iles. The Lac Rainy Nord graphite project is located approximately 15km east of Route 389, a paved highway which travels north to Fermont.
Access to the Lac Rainy Nord Graphite Project is facilitated by a system of small off-road tracks which connect to Route 389.
The Lac Rainy Nord Graphite Project consists of a contiguous landholding of 32 mineral claims covering an area of approximately 16.74 km[2] .
Figure 3 illustrates the location of the Lac Rainy Nord graphite project and its location relative to other developed graphite occurrences and deposits in the region.

Figure 3: Location of the Lac Rainy Nord graphite project
The Lac Rainy Nord Graphite Project, including surrounding lands, was previously owned by Soc. Expl. Min. Mazarin Inc. ( Mazarin Inc. ).
Historical exploration conducted by Mazarin Inc. at the Lac Rainy Nord graphite project and surrounding lands was comprised of geophysics (MAG - VLF EM), ground and helicopter prospecting, stripping, trenching, geological surveys and sampling. This exploration has identified several primary mineralised targets.
The Lac Rainy Nord graphite project is located in a well understood geological setting which is host to numerous graphite occurrences and deposits owned by major operators. The favourable location and access to the project facilitates exploration and development in a low cost environment.
8
The Lac Rainy Nord graphite project is located within 5 km of the following known and explored graphite projects:
-
Fermont – Site 7 and 9 : 15.06% Cg over 1.5 m (sample RX- 5324; Site 7); 11.83% Cg over 1.5 m (sample spline RX- 5328; Site 9); 9.96% Cg over 2.0 m (sample RX- 5332; Site 9); 25.37% Cg (grab samples RX- 5351; Site 9) and 24.69% Cg (grab samples RX- 5353; Site 9).
-
Fermont – Site 11 : 21.58% Cg over 1.5 m (RX- 5339); 11.39% Cg over 1.5 m (sample RX5341); 5.57% Cg over 1.5 m (sample RX- 5338); 13.90% Cg (sample RX- 5352). The size of graphite flakes is from 1 to 5 mm.
-
Fermont – Site 3, 5 and 6 : 16.87% Cg (sample RX- 5347); 6.78% Cg (sample RX- 5349 - Site 5); 6.25% Cg (sample RX- 5317 - Site 3); 5.49% Cg to 1.5 m (sample RX – 5323 - Site 6). The size of graphite flakes is from 2 to 8 mm.
-
Permit 861 : 22.27% Cg and 16.68% Cg (sample 2215 and 2214). In this stratigraphic horizon, the content ranges from 5% to 20% graphitic carbon and fine flake.
-
Lac Knife : 13.19% Cg (sample RX4560); 9.55% Cg over 2.5 m (sample RX4559). Graphite is very coarse flakes.
The Lac Rainy Nord graphite project was first discovered in 1989 and has been subject to some exploration over that time, however previous exploration was not conducted in a systematic manner and was focused more on the iron potential of the region which has meant that the true mineralisation and potential of the Lac Rainy Nord graphite project has not been fully established.
The Lac Rainy Nord graphite project is contiguous with the Lac Knife Graphite Deposit which is owned by Focus Graphite.
The Lac Knife Graphite Deposit hosts a reported Measured and Indicated resource totalling 9,576,000 million tonnes grading 14.77% graphitic carbon together with Inferred resources of 3,102,000 tonnes grading 13.25% graphitic carbon.
(Note: Inferred Resources are considered too geologically speculative to have mining and economic considerations applied to them and to be categorized as Mineral Reserves)
The Feasibility Study completed by Met-Chem Canada Inc. (released on 8 August 2014) on the Lac Knife Graphite Deposit indicates that the Lac Knife Graphite Deposit has the potential to become one of the lowest-cost, highest-margin producers of graphite in the world.
Refer to http://www.focusgraphite.com/wp-content/uploads/largeReport/Lac-Knife-FeasibilityStudy-Technical-Report-August-2014.pdf for further information in relation to the Feasibility Study at the Lac Knife graphite project.
Graphite mineralization is set in migmatized biotite-bearing quartz-feldspar gneiss belonging to the Nault Formation of the lower Proterozoic Gagnon Group.
According to the Québec Ministry of Natural Resources, where this gneissic unit is sheared, brecciated and silicified, coarse graphite flakes and associated sulphide minerals make up 5% to 10% of the rock, with up to 20% or more in the more brecciated zones.
Fuchsite and other iron-rich micas accompany the graphite and sulphide mineralization in the more silicified horizons.

Lac La Motte Lithium Project
The Lac La Motte lithium project is located in the Abitibi Greenstone Belt of Quebec approximately 25 kilometres northwest of the historic mining town of Val d'Or and 400 km northwest of Montreal.
The Lac La Motte project consists of a contiguous landholding of 64 mineral claims and 25 mineral claim applications covering an area of approximately 49.4 km[2] .
Access to the Lac La Motte project from Val d'Or is easily gained via paved Highway 111 and a number of all-weather gravel roads.
Figure 5 shows the location of the Lac La Motte project, the key infrastructure, and the known lithium occurrences surrounding the project.

Figure 5. Lac La Motte Project Location. Green squares represent lithium deposits. See also Figure 7 showing pegmatite trends and magnetic imagery
Regional Mineralisation
The Lac La Motte lithium project represents a significant landholding surrounded by known lithium deposits and occurrences, as well as known beryl occurrences. The lithium mineralisation at the Lac La Motte project is contained in north-east and east-west trends. The Lac La Motte project is targeting spodumene-bearing rare metal LCT pegmatite dyke complexes.
Previous exploration in the region has concentrated on gold and base metal potential of the area, with little focus on lithium until recently, despite the prevalence of lithium deposits and occurrences recorded in the vicinity of the Lac La Motte project.
This presents a unique opportunity for MLS to commence an immediate exploration program focused on the detailed structural geological features that exist at the project. A comprehensive mapping and sampling program has already been designed, with a maiden drill campaign to commence as soon as the results from the phase 1 program are known.
Within the Lac La Motte project, numerous LCT pegmatites hosting spodumene varying from 1.6m to 6m in width exist which intrude diorites, monzonites and metasediments of the Caste Group that are in contact with the basalts of the Lower Malartic Group. The lithium mineralisation occurs mainly in medium to large spodumene crystals.
The La Motte lithium occurrence, which is located within metres of the Lac La Motte project licence boundaries, has exhibited strong lithium mineralisation where previous drill hole intercepts highlighted high grade lithium mineralisation of 1.65% Li2O over 1.0 m (drill hole No. 16, Quebec Government file report GM 03089), 1.34% Li2O over 0.9 m (drill hole No. 15) and 1.12% Li2O over 1.32 m (drill hole No. 14).
11
Existing Lithium Deposits in Close Proximity
The Jilin owned Quebec Lithium Mine which is located in the northeast part of the region less than 7 km northeast of the Lac La Motte project, contains a measured and indicated mineral resource of 33.24 Mt at 1.19% Li2O and an inferred mineral resource of 13.76 Mt at 1.21% Li2O (NI 43-101 compliant), according to a technical report filed by Canada Lithium Corp. on 12 October 2012.
For further information, refer to the following:
www.rb-e.com/i/pdf/Quebec_Lithium_Mineral_Resources_and_Reserves_Estimates.pdf
The Lac La Motte project is located less than 1 km east of the Authier lithium deposit which has a reported JORC Measured, Indicated and Inferred resource of 9.22Mt @ 0.96% Li2O.
For further information, refer to the following:
www.sayonamining.com.au/PDF/ASX7Jul16_Authier%20JORC%20Resource%20Estimate.pdf
The Duval Lithium deposit is located less than 1.5km north-northwest of the Lac La Motte licence boundaries. Trenching and bulk sampling at the Duval lithium deposit resulted in high grade lithium being exhibited:
-
1.45% Li2O (dyke 1 average of 15 bulk samples of 22 kg each);
-
3.4% MoS2 over 0.5 m (dyke 1 poll 10);
-
0.57% Li2O (dyke 2 from 4 bulk samples of 22 kg each); and
-
0.54% Li2O over 2.1 m (sample L-19).
The Baillarge-Ouest lithium-tantalum deposit is located less than 500 metres east of the Lac La Motte licence boundaries and contains spodumene-hosted lithium in pegmatite outcrop grading 1.94% Li2O.
Lithium Deposits and Occurrences on the Lac La Motte Project
The Lac La Motte VII-47 lithium occurrence is located within metres from the claims comprising the Lac La Motte lithium project. This LCT pegmatite dyke intersects metasediments of the Caste Group that are in contact with the basalts of the Lower Malartic Group. Spodumene and beryl are observed in fracture fillings in LCT pegmatite dykes.
This prospect has been identified as a potentially significant lithium lode, which is oriented in an east-west direction. It has been interpreted that this lithium bearing mineralized zone continues into the Lac La Motte licence boundaries and could represent an important source for mineralisation at the project.
The nearby Lac La Motte lithium occurrence is located in close proximity to licence boundaries of the Lac La Motte lithium project. The host LCT pegmatite dykes contain spodumene in high concentrations with associated beryl and occur in multiple locations across the Lac La Motte project.
There are at least 6 known parallel LCT pegmatite dykes containing spodumene. The irregular distribution of the lithium-bearing pegmatite dykes in fractures in the granites suggests that this system of dykes could also be present on the Lac La Motte project.
Historical Exploration at Lac La Motte Project
Exploration and historical drilling on the Lac La Motte project took place on the edges of the volcanics and ultramafics and focussed on the gold, zinc, nickel and copper potential, with little
12
exploration directed at lithium. Extensive mapped outcrops of LCT pegmatite hosting beryl exist on the Lac La Motte project.
The Lac La Motte project contains numerous Li (spodumene) ±Ta (tantalite) ±Be (beryllium) mineralised occurrences which have been investigated only sporadically by junior mining companies with various geophysical, geochemical and geological tools from the early 1950s until the present day.
Lacourciere-Darveau Lithium Project
The Lacourciere-Darveau lithium project consists of 153 mineral claims and 28 mineral claim applications totalling approximately 104.25 km[2] located approximately 15 kilometres west of the community of Malarctic.
==> picture [405 x 292] intentionally omitted <==
Figure 6. Lacourciere-Darveau Project Location.
Regional Mineralisation and Existing Lithium Deposits in Close Proximity
The Lacourciere-Darveau project is located approximately 8 km east of a 200m[2] excavation where a sample taken from the enrichment zone between trench 2 and trench 3 yielded 2.87% Li2O. The 5 veins sampled contained between 3.0% Li2O and 4.0% Li2O.
Other lithium occurrences in the vicinity of the project include Ile du Refuge and Lac Simard which are located along trend about 50km to the SSW and host known lithium deposits with average grades of 2.1% Li2O and 1% Li2O respectively.
Though there are several lithium occurrences in the vicinity, the property itself has seen limited exploration. Geological mapping and outcrop mapping were conducted in 1956 and 1957, with the geological mapping being reinterpreted in 2009.
13
This new geology map revealed the presence of multiple zones of LCT pegmatites and granites. The work on the property in the 1950s identified three beryl occurrences in LCT pegmatite veins, which is considered to be significant as these LCT pegmatites may also host lithium mineralisation. No drill testing has been recorded on the Lacourciere-Darveau project.
The presence of beryl and spodumene-rich occurrences within complex LCT pegmatites in the vicinity indicates high potential for the discovery of lithium mineralisation within the project area.
Lithium Deposits/Occurrences on the Lacourciere-Darveau Project
Strong NNE-trending structures control the distribution of the beryl and lithium deposits in the project region. Beryl and lithium occur on the edges of the pegmatitic pluton.
==> picture [329 x 303] intentionally omitted <==
Figure 7. Lacourciere-Darveau Project Geology.
The distribution of the beryl and lithium deposits indicates mineralisation is the result of intrusive LCT pegmatite dykes, where spodumene crystals can reach up to 30cm in length and up to 15cm in diameter.
Economic analysis of the lithium and beryllium potential has not yet been undertaken, despite the fact that the Ile du Refuge, Lac Simard and Wells-Lacourciere high-grade lithium deposits are located nearby.
The lithium potential of this beryl occurrence and the associated LCT pegmatite outcrop is yet to be determined. The pegmatite has been mapped in a NNE trend and remains open along strike. Tantalum and niobium have been identified in the LCT pegmatite outcrop.
14
Lac La Corne Lithium Project
The Lac La Corne lithium project is located in approximately 20 kilometres north of the historic mining town of Val d'Or and 400 km northwest of Montreal and represents a contiguous landholding of 87 mineral claims totalling approximately 49.8 km[2] . Access from Val d'Or is gained via paved Highway 111 and a number of all-weather gravel roads.
==> picture [387 x 259] intentionally omitted <==

Figure 8 above shows the location of the Lac La Corne project and associated key infrastructure. It also shows the pegmatite trends though the project interpreted from the regional magnetic imagery and which correspond to the location of Outcrop 1548 and known lithium deposits to the west, south west and north east.
Regional Mineralisation
The Lac La Corne lithium project represents a significant landholding surrounded by known lithium deposits and occurrences as well as beryl occurrences. The lithium mineralisation at the Lac La Corne project is contained in tight north-north-east trending zones.
The Lac La Corne project is targeting spodumene and rare metal-bearing LCT pegmatite dyke complexes.
The region is dominated by quartz monzodiorite and metasomatized quartz diorite (tonalite) of the La Corne plutonic complex. A swarm of spodumene-rich granitic pegmatite dykes intrude fractures and small faults within the plutonic rocks.
The LCT pegmatite dykes are as much as 6m thick and are generally crudely zoned, some having quartz cores and border zones of aplite. The granitic LCT pegmatites are composed of quartz, albite and/or cleavelandite, K-feldspar, muscovite, with spodumene in high concentration.
15
Existing Lithium Deposits in Close Proximity
Located less than 1km west of the Lac La Corne project is the Chubb Lithium deposit which is currently owned by Globex Mining Enterprises, and was optioned to Great Thunder Gold Corporation in May 2016.
Drilling intersections obtained in 1994 by Abitibi Lithium Corp. at the Chubb Lithium deposit, produced intervals of 3.72 m @ 1.78 wt. % Li2O, 2.75 m @ 1.00 wt. % Li2O and 2.38 m @ 1.25 wt. % Li2O.
Source: “Technical Report and Recommendations for Three Li-Mo Properties Associated With the Preissac-Lacorne Batholith in the Abitibi Subprovince, Quebec, Canada: The Chubb, International and Athona Properties.”
Lithium Deposits / Occurrences on the Lac La Corne Project
The Quebec Geological Survey Department in July 2014 recorded outcrop 1584 as having high spodumene and molybdenum potential. This outcrop is located in the south-west portion of the Lac La Corne project.
To date no drilling or follow up exploration has been undertaken, despite strong recommendations from the Geological Survey Department geologist at the time. Outcrop 1584 is contained in a NNEtrending structure that continues along strike into the Lac La Corne project.
The Company has made contact with the Geological Survey Department geologist who was responsible for conducting this survey and subsequently identified the outcrop. Follow-up exploration is planned immediately for this high priority target.

Figure 9 shows the location of the Lac La Motte and Lac La Corne lithium projects over regional magnetic imagery which highlights the interpreted LCT pegmatite trends though the projects and which correspond to the location of Outcrop 1548 and other known lithium deposits in the area.
The strong magnetic trends identified in figure 9 follow a NE and NNE direction along strike of the known lithium mineralisation and lithium deposits / occurrences, striking through the Lac La Motte and Lac La Corne lithium projects.
These magnetic trends highlight the anticipated mineralised zones across the two projects and provide the Company with a focused area where future exploration programs will be conducted.
