TNR Gold/International Lithium Increase Nevada Position, Sarcobatus Flats-Lithium Brine Project TNR.v, CZX.v, ROC, WLC.v, RM.v, F, NSANY, DAI, BMW,

"TNR Gold Corp.
TNR Gold was an early mover in acquiring lithium properties and has assembled a package of eight properties that continues to grow. The projects are located in diverse geographical locations with pegmatites in Canada and Ireland and brine projects in Nevada and Argentina. TNR Gold plans a spin out of its lithium and rare earth element assets into International Lithium Corp. in the first quarter of 2010. The company will also be looking for joint venture partners to move their extensive property portfolio forward." Dundee Capital Markets.

"Dundee Capital's investment research "Lithium - Hype or Substance" outlined Lithium economics with supply and demand and major Canadian players involved. Just a few companies are involved in Nevada Lithium brine development in Clayton valley.
The volcanics surrounding the valley contain some of the richest lithium concentrations in the world and their brines and evaporities have been accumulating in the Clayton Valley for at least 33,000 years. These brines have the highest lithium content of any brines tested by the USGS in the southwestern US. The Clayton Valley area brines have been estimated to contain 700 million kg of Lithium to a depth of 1,200 ft. (Kunasz, 1975) The Clayton Valley area brines have the highest lithium content of all brines located in the southwestern United States. The valley contains the only operating lithium mine in the US as well as the only lithium brine operation in the country, but only a fraction of this vast lithium resource is accounted for in the area's existing lithium operation. Clayton Valley area is located in the center of Esmeralda County Nevada approximately 40 miles west of Goldfield and approximately 50 miles southwest of Tonopah. Access to the valley is by good paved road.Lithium exists in Clayton Valley area in two modes: in solution within a brine and multiple solid phases such as hectorite (a clay mineral) and halite (evaporite salts). Lithium brine resources are now the preferred method of lithium recovery."

International Lithium is building a bold presence in Nevada with its three lithium brine projects around Silver Peak with the only one lithium producer from brines in the United States. Fish lake, Mud lake and Sarcobatus flats will be the base for "...an integrated regional lithium exploration approach using geochemical and basin modeling with gravity, electromagnetic, hydrogeological, and geochemical fieldwork to identify drill targets." With this acquisition International Lithium becomes Nevada regional lithium exploration and development play.

"TNR Gold/International Lithium Increase Nevada Position, Sarcobatus Flats-Lithium Brine Project

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwire - Nov. 10, 2009) - TNR Gold Corp. ("TNR" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:TNR - News) and wholly-owned International Lithium Corp. ("ILC") are pleased to announce the signing of a letter agreement to acquire up to a 100% interest in the 1,076 hectare Sarcobatus Flats lithium brine property located 109 kms south of Tonopah, Nye County, Nevada, from Tonogold Resources Inc. (PINK OTC: TNGL) of La Jolla, California.

Key point summary:
- Acquires 1,076 hectare Sarcobatus Flats property;
- An under-explored analogue to the producing lithium brines at Clayton Valley; and
- TNR will focus on advancing its highly prospective Nevada projects.

Gary Schellenberg, President of TNR Gold Corp., states, "Our objective is to become one of the foremost companies in the Nevada lithium exploration and development sector. The acquisition of the Sarcobatus Flats property is a definitive step towards achieving our goal."
Sarcobatus Flats Acquisition
Sarcobatus Flats is a desert playa lake located in Nye County, western Nevada along state route 95 approximately 109 kilometres south of Tonopah and 72 kilometres southeast of Clayton Valley, the location of the producing Silver Peak world-class lithium brine deposit. The Sarcobatus Flats project consists of 105 placer claims totaling 1,076 hectares.
The acquisition of the new claims was prompted due to the highly anomalous concentrations of lithium, ranging between 210 and 340ppm Li, encountered from a preliminary surface sediment sampling program conducted on the Sarcobatus Flats claim group. As additional encouragement, there are several important similarities between the settings of Sarcobatus Flats and a Clayton Valley type lithium brine deposit. The property is located in a closed structural basin, contains similar stratigraphy and occupies a lacustrine environment similar regional hydrogeography and geochemistry to Clayton Valley. In essence, Sarcobatus Flats represents an under-explored early stage analogue to Clayton Valley.
To earn a 100% interest, TNR has agreed to make payments totaling USD$130,000 and issue 675,000 common shares of TNR over a four-year period. The vendor will retain a 2.5% royalty of which the Company has the right to purchase up to 2% of the Royalty, by paying Tonogold USD$1 million per 1% purchased, for a total of USD$2 million, thereby reducing Tonogold's NSR to 0.5%. The agreement is subject to regulatory approval.
Work Programs
The Company intends to explore its Nevada properties and determine if lithium evaporates and brine deposits have formed similar to those found at Clayton Valley. TNR is developing an integrated regional lithium exploration approach using geochemical and basin modeling with gravity, electromagnetic, hydrogeological, and geochemical fieldwork to identify drill targets. The TNR exploration team has extensive geochemical, GIS modeling and targeting experience across four continents with specific expertise in lithium and other rare metals.

About TNR Gold Corp. / International Lithium Corp.
TNR is a diversified metals exploration company focused on exploring existing properties and identifying new prospective projects globally. TNR has a total portfolio of 33 properties, of which 16 will be included in the proposed spin-off of International Lithium Corp.
It is anticipated that TNR shareholders of record will receive up to one share and one full tradable warrant of International Lithium Corp. for every 4 shares of TNR held as of the yet determined record date. This will result in TNR shareholders owning shares in both TNR and International Lithium. For further details of the spin-off please refer to TNR's April 27, 2009 news release or visit http://www.internationallithium.com/.
The recent acquisition of lithium, other rare metals and rare-earth element projects in Argentina, Canada, USA and Ireland confirms the company's commitment to generating projects, diversifying its markets, and building shareholder value.
On behalf of the board,
Gary Schellenberg, President"
