Edison Lithium Provides Corporate Update

Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - November 2, 2023) - Edison Lithium Corp. (TSXV: EDDY) (OTCQB: EDDYF) (FSE: VV0) ("Edison" or the "Company"), as announced on August 25, 2023, has acquired a 100% interest in four prime sodium brine properties in Saskatchewan. The acquisition of the alkali dispositions, located in Ceylon Lake, Freefight Lake and the north and south areas of Cabri Lake, in the Province of Saskatchewan, allows Edison to capitalize on the emerging growth of the sodium ion ("NA-ION") battery as a significant alternative to the lithium-ion battery by positioning the Company to meet the growing raw material supply chain demand of the NA-ION battery industry.

A National Instrument 43-101 Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects ("NI 43-101") technical report for the alkali dispositions has been commissioned and is expected to be available in December 2023.

Nathan Rotstein, Chief Executive Officer and Director of Edison, stated, "BYD, the world's largest electric vehicle manufacturer, has three models of NA-ION battery vehicles for sale. In addition, CATL, the largest manufacturer of electric vehicle batteries in China, is now producing a NA-ION battery. The trend is definitely moving to the NA-ION battery, not just for electric vehicles but also for energy/grid storage."

Argentina Properties Update

The Company has been approached by several interested parties to discuss the development or sale of, or potential joint venture opportunities connected with, certain lithium brine claims held by the Company in the province of Catamarca, Argentina. The claims are principally located in the two geological basins known as the Antofalla Salar and the Pipanaco Salar in South America's famed Lithium Triangle. Edison is assessing the opportunities to determine which, if any, align with the Company's development plans.
