Vancouver, British Columbia – August 18, 2025 – Sandy MacDougall, Chairman of Noram Lithium Corp. (“Noram” or the “Company”) (TSXV: NRM | OTCQB: NRVTF | Frankfurt: N7R) is pleased to report that the Company has completed a full review of the assay data from the Company’s flagship Zeus lithium deposit in Clayton Valley, Nevada.  Notably, high results of the critical minerals, Rubidium (Rb) and Cesium (Cs), have the potential for an additional resource of significant economic value.

“Rubidium and cesium are rare, strategically important elements mainly sourced as by-products from lithium and pollucite mining. They serve critical roles in advanced electronics, telecommunications, and medical technologies. Their scarcity and specialized demand maintain a high value. Extracting cesium and rubidium as valuable by-products can substantially increase the project’s overall profitability”, stated Sandy MacDougall, Chairman and Director. “As our investors know, relying solely on one commodity can be risky due to market volatility. Having access to cesium and rubidium metals that occur naturally within our project offers a strategic, economic, and political advantage, especially in the context of U.S. efforts to secure critical mineral supplies in markets that are forecasted to almost double in approximately the next 5 years.”

Assay Data

The data analyzed is from 7 phases of drilling spanning 7 years (2016-2023) and includes 91 core holes and 3,407 assayed intervals.  Of these assays, 1,267 with greater than 1,000 ppm Lithium and over a minimum 15-foot thickness were selected as being the most likely to be mined due to their high grade and location.  A summary of these assays is given in Table 1.

Discussion

Current prices for rubidium and cesium (>99.5%) are approximately $US 3,327/oz and $US 2,873/oz (Shanghai Metals Market prices, August 16, 2025, VAT included), respectively. With the >1000 ppm Li claystone material containing 290 ppm Rb and 55 ppm Cs, these metals have the potential to significantly enhance the value of the Zeus deposit.  

Their economic value can be high per kilogram, especially for high-purity forms used in precision electronics or medical applications. Economically, producing these minerals as by-products from existing mining operations can be highly profitable, especially when market conditions favor increased demand and limited supply.

“These high-value, critical elements are essential in advanced electronics, telecommunications, and medical technologies, offering our shareholders a unique opportunity to participate in the supply chain for these vital commodities. Their occurrence as valuable by-products not only increases the project’s overall profitability but also positions us as a key player in the domestic critical minerals market. This development underscores the project’s potential to deliver substantial value for investors, supporting U.S. strategic priorities while creating long-term growth opportunities” commented Sandy MacDougall.
