CEO.CA Chairman's Briefing

Highlights:

• The maiden resource estimate at the Yellowknife Lithium Project represents the 3^rd largest hard-rock maiden resource estimate in Canada and the 10^th largest hosted in the Western Hemisphere.

• 6 of the 8 spodumene dykes included in the maiden resource estimate have unconstrained mineralization, providing significant opportunity for growth.

• 5 undrilled spodumene dykes hosted within the Yellowknife Lithium Project that were not included in the maiden resource estimate have excellent potential to further expand the resource profile.

• The maiden resource estimate is only based on 10 months and 49,548 m of drilling (286 drill holes from June 2023 to April 2024).

• The maiden resource estimate further positions the Yellowknife Lithium Project as a globally significant source of spodumene and will underpin a preliminary economic assessment that is on track to be completed in Q2 2025.

• Excellent access to infrastructure, including the Ingraham Trail running through part of the mineral resource, proximity to rail at Hay River, existing powerlines outside of Yellowknife, and access to major ports in Prince Rupert and Vancouver for shipment to Asian markets.

• The x-ray diffraction analysis and pilot-scale testing completed as part of the Yellowknife Lithium Project metallurgical program (see press release dated September 23, 2024) provides confirmation of simple lithium mineralogy and that low-cost dense medium separation ("DMS") is suitable for the spodumene dykes included the maiden resource estimate.

VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / October 1, 2024 / Li-FT Power Ltd. ("LIFT" or the "Company") (TSXV:LIFT)(OTCQX:LIFFF)(Frankfurt:WS0) is pleased to announce the initial (i.e. first) National Instrument 43-101 ("NI 43-101") compliant mineral resource estimate ("MRE") for the Yellowknife Lithium Project ("YLP"), located in the Northwest Territories. The mineral resource estimate covers 8 of 13 spodumene-bearing pegmatite dykes that comprise LIFT's YLP (Figure 1). The consolidated in-pit MRE is reported at 50.4 million tonnes (Mt) grading 1.00% Li₂O for 506,000 tonnes of Li₂O (1.25 million tonnes of LCE) in the inferred category and will form the basis of a Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) targeted for delivery in Q2 2025.

Figure 1 - Location of LIFT's Yellowknife Lithium Project. Drilling has been thus far mainly focused on the Near Field Group of pegmatites which are located to the east of the city of Yellowknife along a government-maintained paved highway, and advancing to the Echo target, the first drilling in the Further Afield Group.

Francis MacDonald, CEO of LIFT comments, "The announcement of Li-FT's first NI 43-101 mineral resource estimate for the Yellowknife Lithium Project marks a significant milestone for both the Company and the Northwest Territories. With an estimated 50.4 million tonnes at a grade of 1.00% Li₂O based only on the initial drilling program, the Yellowknife Lithium Project already ranks among the top 10 largest spodumene projects in the Americas. The majority of the deposits included in the MRE have not yet been constrained by the drilling completed to-date and have excellent potential to significantly grow through further drill programs. This resource will be pivotal in advancing the PEA we are targeting for Q2 2025."

Yellowknife Lithium Project Mineral Resource Estimate Notes:

1. The Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE) was estimated by Allan Armitage, Ph.D., P. Geo. of SGS Geological Services, an independent Qualified Person as defined by NI 43-101.

2. The classification of the current MRE into Inferred mineral resources is consistent with current 2014 CIM Definition Standards for Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves.The effective date for the Mineral Resource Estimate is September 25, 2024.

3. All figures are rounded to reflect the relative accuracy of the estimateand numbers may not add due to rounding.

4. The mineral resource is presented undiluted and in situ, constrained by continuous 3D wireframe models, and are considered to have reasonable prospects for eventual economic extraction.

5. Mineral resources which are not mineral reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability. An Inferred Mineral Resource has a lower level of confidence than that applying to an Indicated Mineral Resource and must not be converted to a Mineral Reserve. It is reasonably expected that most Inferred Mineral Resources could be upgraded to Indicated Mineral Resources with continued exploration.

6. The YLP MRE is based on a validated database which includes data from 286 surface diamond drill holes totaling 49,548 m. The resource database totals 10,842 assay intervals representing 10,846 m of drilling. The average assay sample length is 1.00 m.

7. The MRE is based on 126 three-dimensional ("3D") pegmatite resource models, constructed in Leapfrog, representing the Big East, Big West, Fi Main, Fi SW, Nite, Shorty, Echo and Ki pegmatite deposits. Li₂O grades were estimated for each mineralization domain using 1.0 metre composites. To generate grade within the blocks, the inverse distance squared (ID²) interpolation method was used for all deposits.

8. Average density values were assigned to pegmatite and waste domains based on a database of 2,062 samples.

9. Li-FT envisions that the YLP deposits may be mined using open-pit mining methods. Mineral resources are reported at a base case cut-off grade of 0.40 to 0.50% Li₂O. The in-pit Mineral Resource grade blocks are quantified above the base case cut-off grades, above the constraining pit shell, below topography, and within the constraining mineralized domains (the constraining volumes).

10. The results from the pit optimization are used solely for the purpose of testing the "reasonable prospects for economic extraction" by an open pit and do not represent an attempt to estimate mineral reserves. There are no mineral reserves on the Property. The results are used as a guide to assist in the preparation of a Mineral Resource statement and to select an appropriate resource reporting cut-off grade.

11. The base-case Li₂O Cut-off grade considers the following assumptions: a lithium concentrate (5.5% Li₂O) price of US$920/t, a mining cost of US$3.25/t mined, processing, treatment, refining, G&A and transportation cost of USD$19.50/t of mineralized material, metallurgical DMS recovery of 60% was assumed, as were pit slope angles of 60º and mining loss and dilution of 5% and 5%.

12. The estimate of Mineral Resources may be materially affected by environmental, permitting, legal, title, taxation, socio-political, marketing, or other relevant issues.

Figure 2 - Scatterplot of spodumene projects in the Americas (MRE vs. Grade). After only 10 months of drilling, the estimated 50.4 million tons at a grade of 1.00% Li₂O, ranks the YLP project as one of the top 10 largest spodumene project in the Americas. Sources: Company disclosures.

Figure 3 - 8 of 13 resource pegmatites dykes with 2024 drilling plotted. The initial MRE was calculated from 286 drill holes or 49,548m of drilling, using 126 three-dimensional ("3D") pegmatite geology models constructed from surface mapping and drill core logging.

Figure 4 - Isometric views of the eight in-pit resource estimates at the Yellowknife Lithium Project. The resource blocks were calculated using Li assay data from 286 drill holes, within 126 three-dimensional ("3D") pegmatite geology bodies representing the Big East, Big West, Fi Main, Fi SW, Nite, Shorty, Echo and Ki pegmatite deposits.

Figure 5 - Isometric long section of the Big-E resource block model and pit, looking southeast. The limits of drilling are defined by some of the strongest intercepts of spodumene mineralization on the project to date, demonstrating the potential for considerable future resource growth. In addition to Big-E, 5 more dykes have unconstrained mineralization all with the potential to significantly increase the collective resource base at the YLP.

Initiation of Preliminary Economic Assessment

In association with the MRE and metallurgical test work completed over the last year (see press release dated September 23, 2024), LIFT initiated a PEA for the Yellowknife Lithium Project and anticipates completion within the first half of 2025.
