Enertopia Announces Inaugural 43-101 West Tonopah Mineral Resource Report

Maiden Mineral Resource Estimate Combined with Excellent Logistics Advance Project Viability

Independent professional analysis estimates an indicated resource of 212,000 tonnes of
lithium carbonate equivalent and an inferred resource of 420,000 tonnes of lithium carbonate equivalent   

Kelowna, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - November 2, 2023) - Enertopia Corporation (OTCQB: ENRT) and (CSE: ENRT) ("Enertopia'' or the "Company") a company focused on building shareholder value through a combination of our Nevada lithium claims, intellectual property, & pending patents in the green technology space, is very pleased to provide the following update.

The West Tonopah (WT) Lithium Project encompasses 88 unpatented lode claims covering approximately 1,760 acres. Enertopia controls 100% of the mining lode claims comprising the West Tonopah property and the rights to all locatable subsurface minerals without any royalties. Enertopia is evaluating the Miocene Siebert Formation for its lithium-claystone potential.

In the period of less than 18 months the Company has completed two drill programs with 22 sonic drillholes totalling 4,913 feet and completed the maiden mineral resource National Instrument 43-101 technical report (the Technical Report).

WT Lithium Project Technical Report Highlights:

• Current geological modeling has separated the project into two mineral resource areas; the higher-lithium grade western area defined by 18 sonic drillholes, and the lower-lithium grade eastern area defined by 4 sonic drillholes.
• The western resource area is estimated to contain 212,000 tonnes lithium carbonate equivalent (LCE) of indicated mineral resources at 609 parts per million (ppm) lithium and 420,000 tonnes LCE of inferred mineral resources  at 722 ppm.
• The lithium-claystone mineralization occurs in the near surface (between zero and approximately 70 feet of overburden).
• High-grade western resource zone currently accounts for 100% of the indicated and 94.4% of the inferred mineral resources at the WT Lithium Project.
• There is good potential for the indicated portion of the mineral resources in the west resource area to increase because the indicated resource is restricted to the current depth of the drilling with continuing mineralization evident at the end-of-hole depths in several drillholes.

Property Statement

"The WT Lithium project is uniquely situated adjacent to one of the largest known lithium-claystone resources in Nevada, with immediate highway access to the Mining Town of Tonopah, which is only      4 miles away. The importance and significance of the project location in mining friendly Nevada, along with the State supporting the growth of the lithium industry, and Federal IRA program cannot be overstated as Countries look to secure local supply chains for their citizens. "Stated Robert McAllister, chief executive officer of Enertopia Corp.

Mineral Resource Estimation Summary

The Technical Report has an Effective Date of November 1, 2023, and was prepared in accordance with Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy, and Petroleum (CIM) definition standards and best practice guidelines for mineral resources and reserves (CIM, 2014, 2019) and the disclosure rule National Instrument 43-101 (NI 43-101).

The lithium-claystone resources at the WT Lithium Project are constrained 1) stratigraphically to the Siebert Formation sedimentary and pyroclastic rock strata, and 2) are spatially split into the west and east resource areas. Critical steps in the determination of the lithium-claystone resource model and estimations included:

• Definition of the geology and geometry of the Siebert Formation sedimentary and pyroclastic rocks in the west and east resource areas utilized a 10 m resolution Digital Elevation Model, and geological information from 5 winkie drillholes and 22 sonic drillholes.

• Lithium grade estimation of the Siebert Formation blocks utilized 766 lithium assays including 12 and 754 assays from the winkie and sonic drill programs, respectively. To ensure lithium metal grades were not overestimated, composites were capped to specified maximum values of 1,250 ppm and 670 ppm in the west and east resource areas.

• Based on the drillhole spacing and detail within the 3D geological model, a block model with a block size of 66 x 66 x 10 feet (or 20 m by 20 m in the horizontal directions and 3 m in the vertical direction was generated).

• The Ordinary Kriging (OK) technique was used to estimate the lithium at each parent block within the Siebert Formation wireframe. A two-pass method was employed that used two different search ellipses.

• A conceptual pit shell based on theoretical, but reasonable, parameters (such as a lithium recovery of 80%, 3-year average lithium carbonate price of USD$26,500 per tonne, mining and processing costs of USD$3.33 per tonne and USD$31.56 per tonne, and a pit slope of 45 degrees) demonstrated that blocks contained within the conceptual pit satisfy the test of reasonable prospects for eventual economic extraction.

• A nominal density of 1.70 g/cm³ was applied to convert the Siebert Formation block volumes to tonnage based on analogous Tonopah area, Siebert Formation-based mineral resource studies.

The WT Lithium Project represents a project of merit and has reasonable prospects for eventual economic extraction based on 1) geological inferences from Enertopia's exploration work, 2) marketing considerations, and 3) Enertopia's preliminary leach extraction test work results.

In consideration of CIM definition standards, the west resource area is classified as indicated and inferred mineral resources and the east resource area is classified as an inferred mineral resource. Indicated mineral resources are defined with areas where 3 drillholes are within 1,476 feet of one another. Inferred resources are designated outside of the indicated resources and in areas where there is applicable drillhole information. Unclassified areas include those areas that are not drill tested and/or where there are only isolated sonic drillholes.

The mineral resources are reported for the Siebert Formation as a total (global) volume and tonnage using a lower cutoff of 400 ppm Li and on blocks contained within the conceptual pit shell. The WT Lithium Project's mineral resource estimations are summarized as follows:

• The west resource area has an indicated lithium-claystone resource estimate of 44,000 short tons (40,000 metric tonnes) of elemental Li at an average grade of 609 ppm Li (Table 1). The global (total) lithium carbonate equivalent (LCE) for the west indicated resource area, which is calculated by multiplying elemental lithium by a factor of 5.323, is 233,000 short tons (212,000 metric tonnes) LCE.

• The west resource area has an inferred lithium-claystone resource estimate of 87,000 short tons (79,000 metric tonnes) of elemental Li at an average grade of 722 ppm Li (Table 2a). This translates to 463,000 short tons (420,000 metric tonnes) LCE.

• The east resource area has a lithium-claystone inferred resource estimate of 5,000 short tons (5,000 metric tonnes) of elemental Li at an average grade of 499 ppm Li (Table 2b). This translates to 27,000 short tons (25,000 metric tonnes) LCE.

Mineral resources are not mineral reserves and do not have demonstrated economic viability. There is no guarantee that all or any part of the mineral resource will be converted into a mineral reserve. The estimate of mineral resources may be materially affected by geology, environment, permitting, legal, title, taxation, socio-political, marketing, or other relevant issues. 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.

Note 5: To describe the resource in terms of the industry standard, a conversion factor of 5.323 is used to convert elemental Li to Li₂CO₃, or Lithium Carbonate Equivalent (LCE).

Collectively, the West Tonopah Lithium Project is predicted to contain 1) an indicated mineral resource in the west resource area of 44,000 short tons (40,000 metric tonnes) of elemental lithium, and 2) combined inferred mineral resources in the west and east resource areas of 92,000 short tons (84,000 metric tonnes) of elemental lithium.

The west and east mineral resource areas are overlain by 71.9 and 11.0 million short tons (65.2 and 10.0 million metric tonnes) of overburden-pediment waste material, respectively.

The lithium-claystone resources are subject to change as the project achieves higher levels of confidence in the geological setting, mineralisation, lithium recovery process development, and the implemented cutoff values. The current specific areas of uncertainty with the resource model include the inferred (speculated) fault zone that divides the west and resource areas, detailed stratigraphic modelling of specific Siebert Formation rock units, and the density used to calculate tonnage. The Qualified Person is not aware of any other significant material risks to the mineral resources other than the risks that are inherent to mineral exploration and development in general.

Future Resource Potential

Analytical results of Enertopia's two drilling programs illustrate the potential to increase the lithium-claystone grade and tonnage of the WT Lithium Project. This contention is supported by 1) the observation that the average depth of the 22 drillholes is only 223 feet, 2) approximately 50% of the drillholes were terminated within Seibert Formation strata that yielded some of the highest Li-claystone concentrations within the respective drillholes, and 3) the resource classification criteria in which indicated mineral resources are defined by information derived from 3 holes that are within 1,476 feet of one another.

"These observations are important because it demonstrates that the lithium-claystone deposit remains open to depth and could be targeted as part of ongoing mineral exploration by Enertopia at the WT Lithium Project. Hence there is the potential to possibly increase the volumes of the resource areas and update the resource classifications." Stated Robert McAllister chief executive officer.

Mineral Processing Test Work

During 2022 and 2023, Enertopia conducted preliminary metallurgical test work at Base Metallurgical Laboratories Ltd, British Columbia on representative Siebert Formation samples from the West Tonopah Lithium Project.

Leach test work was carried out unroasted and roasted material, utilising several acids. This early test work indicated that the un-roasted material, which had a head grade sample of 820 ppm Li, achieved higher extractions compared to the roasted material. The sulphuric acid leach appears to be enhanced by both elevated leach temperatures and extended residence times. Under the optimum sulphuric acid leaching conditions, it appears that lithium extractions of more than 80%, and possibly approaching 100%, may be expected of an unroasted sample.

With optimisation and additional test work, Enertopia has the potential to produce lithium extractions that can be further evaluated for battery grade lithium products. It is the Qualified Persons opinion, therefore, that Enertopia's preliminary mineral processing test work demonstrates reasonable prospects for eventual economic extraction.

Quality Assurance/Quality Control

To ensure reliable sample results, the company has a QA/QC program that monitors the chain of custody of samples and includes the insertion of blanks and internal company reference standards at derived intervals within each sample batch.

All samples were sent to independent, ISO 17025 accredited laboratories: ALS laboratories in Reno, NV for sample preparation, and ALS laboratories in Vancouver, BC, for analysis. All samples were prepared using ALS's Code PREP-31 sample preparation process, which involves a crush to 70% less than two millimetres, riffle split off 250 grams and pulverize split to better than 85% passing 75 microns. Each sample was then analyzed using ALS's Code ME-ICP61 analytical method, which uses a four-acid digestion followed by an ICP-AES finish. All samples were analyzed for 33 elements including lithium. Samples were kept secure by Enertopia until shipment to the ALS labs in Reno and Vancouver.

The Qualified Person has reviewed the adequacy of the sample preparation, security, and analytical procedures conducted by Enertopia and found no significant issues or inconsistencies that would cause one to question the validity of the data.

Next Steps:

Next steps to move the project forward on the metallurgy and geological modeling are already underway and will be reported on once contracts have been completed and signed.

"We expect to move aggressively in 2023 to further de-risk the project with continued metallurgical testing, exploration, and core analysis. "Stated Robert McAllister, chief executive officer of Enertopia Corp.
