By: Newsfile

Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - August 17, 2022) - IMAGINE LITHIUM INC. (TSXV: ILI) (OTCQB: ARXRF) is (the "Company" or "Imagine") pleased to announce assay results from its ongoing drill program. The drill program is designed to test targets along strike both to the east and west of the Jackpot lithium project located in the Georgia Lake Area about 140 km NNE of Thunder Bay, Ontario. This first phase of the program expanded the mineralized lithium zone at least 400 metres to the east of the previously drilled area (see Figure 1).

Highlights of the assay results reported today include:

Hole JP-2022-04: 10 m @ 0.90% Li2O, including 3 m @ 1.2% Li2O and 10 m @ 0.89% Li2O, including 4 m @ 1.15 % Li2O;

Hole JP-2022-19: 2.9 m @ 1.31% Li2O and 3.1 m @ 1.23% Li2O;

Hole JP-2022-18B: 12.45 m @ 0.69% Li2O including 3.01 m @ 1.09% Li2O

J.C. St-Amour, President of Imagine commented, "We are encouraged to see the Jackpot pegmatite dikes continuing to the east by at least 400 m. We are seeing similar assay results in this area as in the main Jackpot project and are confident that we will see further growth with more drilling. In addition, we are conducting a ground prospecting program to identify other lithium targets 2 to 3 km along strike from the main Jackpot area."
