Lithium Corporation (OTCBB: LTUM) saw its stock skyrocket 347.8% to $1.03 Thursday, on the release of results from the first phase of sampling of its spring program at Fish Lake Valley, Nevada. Volume for the stock was nearly 12 million shares.

Near-surface brine sampling on its Fish Lake Valley prospect has discovered lithium-enriched brines with results of up to 140 milligrams per liter (mg/L). In addition to these strongly anomalous lithium values, boron is also enriched with values up to 2500 mg/L., and potassium is also elevated, with results up to 7200 mg/L.

The highest values appear to be confined to an area approximately one-half-mile square that is within a larger zone of moderate to highly anomalous lithium and boron, which is 1 ½ miles long by one mile wide.

Lithium Corporation’s president Tom Lewis remarked, “I am tremendously pleased by these results, and I am eagerly looking forward to drilling in this area when access conditions improve later this year.”

Lithium Corporation is an exploration company based in Nevada devoted to the exploration for new lithium resources within the state of Nevada. The Company explores and develops potentially economic lithium-enriched brine fields, with an eye to becoming a long-term producer of this increasingly strategic and economically important commodity.

About Penny Stocks

The term "penny stocks," also known as micro-cap equities, micro caps, small caps, pink sheets, refers to shares in a company that trades for less than $5.00. Most penny stocks trade on the OTCBB market and the pink sheet electronic quotation service. Penny Stocks can be very volatile and can see gains as much as 500% in a day. Volatility in penny stocks is also dangerous because penny stocks can come down as quickly as they go up. If you trade penny stocks based on stock picks, make sure to always do your due diligence on the companies you're considering, use stop loss orders, and book your profits when you are in a position to do so.
