The property is located approximately 60 km north of Val d'Or Quebec.

The property is contiguous to the north and south of NA Lithium’s Quebec Lithium Mine with a published measured and indicated resources (at a 0.60% Li2O cutoff) of 41,556,000 tonnes at 1.09% Li2O, and an inferred resource of (at a 0.60% Li20 cutoff) of 17,766,000 million tonnes at 1.10% Li2O (RB Energy Press Release of October 11, 2012).

Jourdan is also please to announces it has entered into an agreement to acquire a 100% interest in the Baillarge North Lithium - Molybdenum Property (“Baillarge North”), subject to 1% net smelter return ("NSR") on the Baillarge North Property, in consideration for a cash payment of $50,000 and the issuance of 5,000,000 common shares.

The 935 hectare Baillarge North Property is north of Jourdan’s original Baillarge Lithium - Molybdenum Property (“Baillarge”) which was acquired in April of 2011. In 2016, 15 grab samples were collected on the Baillarge North Property with molybdenum assays ranging from 1.08 ppm Mo up to 35.8% Mo. This is a new discovery, and is part of a 100m wide quartz vein system that hosts the molybdenum, with individual quartz veins ranging in width from 5cm to more than 1m. The molybdenum identified in the vein ranges from 1mm in size to more than 20 cm massive molybdenum crystal clusters and sheets.

Jourdan’s Original Baillarge Property is located along trend of the past producing molybdenum mine the La Corne mine, which was operated intermittently by Molybdia Corporation Limited from 1951 to1972 as an underground mine. Total production from the mine during this period was 3,838,844 tons of ore at a head grade of 0.33% MoS2 (6.6 lbs/ ton) and 0.040% bismuth (0.80 lbs/ton).

Jourdan has previously collected surface grab samples that have returned up to 5.47% Mo

Sigeom reports that the Lac Baillarge-Est occurrence on Jourdan’s Baillarge Property also has significant lithium mineralization including 2.48% LiO2 over 2.30m drilled in 1955.

“With these two acquisitions Jourdan now controls 9,689 hectares in the La Corne Region, Quebec, by far the largest land position in the region” stated Michael Dehn, CEO of Jourdan. “With the recent restart of the North America Lithium mine, we believe that La Corne District will be seen as a world class hard rock lithium region and Jourdan will be well positioned to benefit from it.”

Both transactions are subject to the TSX Venture Exchange approval.

All samples were submitted for sample preparation to ALS Minerals Lab located in Val d’Or, Quebec for preparation that were then analysis for Me-MS61, ME-OG62, ME-XRFOS, Mo-OG62, with additional processing and analysis on samples returning greater than 10% Mo having additional processing and analysis with FND – 02A and Mo-CON02.

Roger Ouellet, P. Geo., a Qualified Person as defined by NI 43-101, has reviewed and approved the technical information in this press release. He was also present in the field at the time of sample collection for the 15 samples from the Baillarge North Property.
