Enertopia Announces Clayton Valley Drilling Completed

KELOWNA, BC - Enertopia Corporation reported its first drill program been completed at our Clayton Valley Lithium project. The drilling program confirms the mineralized lithium claystone assemblage underlies the company's property. Four of the five holes drilled bottomed in what appears to be limestone conglomerate. However, recovery in this unit was very poor. In the coming days, cuttings from this lower unit will be examined in more detail to determine if the limestone conglomerate is a distinct unit or if it is cuttings returned from an interval of thin limestone interbeds contained within claystone. Drilling of thin limestone interbeds within claystone would return cuttings that look like those intersected.

The best intercepts for the thickness of the claystone package was on the southern half of our property. Due to time constraints and drilling conditions we were unable to go deeper into the claystone horizon at this time. Drill-hole TOP-02M (metallurgical test hole) was drilled to a depth of 272 feet due to drilling conditions. The drilling intersected 66 feet of upper claystone and 191 feet of reduced claystone and ended in limestone conglomerate. Solution testing of hole TOP-02M will start once assay results are back from TOP-02 and the grade and distinct strata graphic horizons can be correlated and prepared.

"We are excited that the estimated thickness of the horizons has been what we have calculated internally thus far. And we can't wait to get started on our solution testing" said, President and CEO Robert McAllister.
