Western Lithium Canada Corporation (WLC) is a Canadian based resource company focused on the development of a large lithium resource located in northwestern Nevada.  The Company was incorporated on November 27, 2007 as a subsidiary of Western Uranium Corporation (WUC).  Following the completion of the Plan of Arrangement between the two companies, Western Lithium ceased to be wholly-owned by WUC and became an independent publicly traded company.   The Company trades on the Toronto Venture Exchange under the symbol WLC.  The company operates in the United States through its wholly owned subsidiary, Western Lithium Corporation (“Western Lithium USA”).  Western Lithium USA has leased a portion of claims on the Kings Valley Project, Nevada from Western Energy Development Corp, a wholly owned US subsidiary of WUC.  The lease grants Western Lithium the exclusive rights to explore for, develop, and mine or otherwise produce, any and all lithium mineralization known or discovered on the claims.

The Company’s flagship property; Kings Valley Lithium Project, is located in northwestern Nevada approximately 100 km north-northwest of Winnemucca and 40 km west-northwest of Orovada, Nevada.  A non-compliant NI-43-101 historical resource produced by Chevron Resources estimated 24 billion pounds of lithium carbonate equivalent (LCE) is contained on the property.   Mineralization is located in five pods with the southern most lens of mineralization located in close proximity to infrastructure which includes a paved state highway and power lines.  During the past year the WLC has completed 45 in-fill and confirmation drill holes on this zone; the PCD Lens, undertaken bench scale metallurgical testing, a project scoping study, and has initiated additional metallurgical and process testing on both the bench and pilot scale levels.  A NI 43-101 compliant report on the project has been completed by AMEC E&C Services Inc. (AMEC).  Calculation of a NI-43-101 compliant resource estimate on the PCD lens is underway by AMEC E & C Services, Inc. and should be completed by the third quarter of 2008. 

Lithium Carbonate is used in a variety of applications including batteries, glass and ceramics, lubricants, refrigeration, pharmaceuticals, polymers, and aluminum production.  The demand for lithium is projected to increase significantly with the development of lithium-ion and lithium-metal batteries for use in electric and hybrid-electric cars.
