"The world’s future energy course is being charted today because of the ramifications of peak oil and a need to reduce our carbon footprints.A whole new industry - a global wide automotive and industrial lithium-ion battery industry - is going to be built. As a result of lithium-ion battery demand for hybrid-electric and electric cars the increase in demand for lithium carbonate is expected to increase four-fold by 2017.Lithium-ion batteries have become the rechargeable battery of choice in cell phones, computers, hybrid-electric cars and electric cars. Chrysler, Dodge, Ford, GM, Mercedes-Benz, Mitsubishi, Nissan, Saturn, Tesla and Toyota have all announced plans to build lithium-ion battery powered cars.Demand for lithium powered vehicles is expected to increase fivefold by 2012. The worldwide market for lithium batteries is estimated at over $4 billion per year."

"Company update:
TNR Gold Corp. TSX: TNR
TNR Gold Corp. has entered into a letter agreement with Cricket Capital Corp. on the Company's 100% owned Forgan Lake property located 125km northeast of Thunder Bay, OntarioIn addition, the Company has commenced drilling at the Mariana Lithium brine project in Argentina, and it has increased its land position in Nevada to 5,285 hectares through staking and has commenced a geophysical program on its Mud Lake project, Nye County, Nevada. The Company proposed to waive the production of a feasibility study and exercise its right to acquire 25% of the northern half of the properties for Minera Andes' Los Azules Project in Argentina.
TNR established June 8, 2010 as a date of the meeting date for shareholder approval of the previously announced spin-out of TNR's lithium and rare metals assets into its wholly-owned subsidiary, International Lithium Corp. TNR shareholders of record on the date of the spinout, planned for late June or early July, will receive one share and one fully tradable warrant of International Lithium Corp. for every 4 shares of TNR."

TNR Gold Corp.: International Lithium Commences 2010 Exploration Program at Sarcobatus Flats, Nevada

Press Release Source: TNR Gold Corp. On Friday April 30, 2010, 1:00 pm EDT
VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwire - April 30, 2010) - TNR Gold Corp. (TSX VENTURE:TNR - News; "TNR" or the "Company") and wholly-owned International Lithium Corp. ("ILC") are pleased to announce the Company has commenced the 2010 exploration program at the Sarcobatus Flats project, Nye County, Nevada as part of the Company's plan to systematically explore and evaluate all of its' Nevada projects.
Key Highlights:
-- Commencement of gravity survey at Sarcobatus Flats project, Nevada;

-- Completion of gravity survey at Mud Lake project, Nevada;

-- Expansion of Nevada lithium brine project holdings to 5,285 hectares; and

-- Full commitment to a systematic geophysical exploration of the Company's entire Nevada holdings.

Nevada Lithium Brine Project Update
The geophysical crew has successfully completed a detailed gravity survey on the Mud Lake project and has commenced an initial phase of geophysics on the Sarcobatus Flats project in Nye County, Nevada, as part of a systematic exploration approach across the Company's entire Nevada project areas. Processing of the Mud Lake geophysical data is underway and the results will be available shortly.
The geophysical stage of exploration maps structural features in the subsurface that may form traps for brine. These features are then used to generate and prioritize drill targets.
Nevada Projects
The Mud Lake Project is located 16 kilometres southeast of Tonopah in the Ralston Valley, Nevada covering 2,914 hectares in Nye County and is readily accessible year round. The Ralston basin, which contains Mud Lake, appears to have similar geological features that provided both a source and trap for lithium brines found in Clayton Valley which is located 47 kilometres west from the property. Chemetall-Foote Corp's Silver Peak operation, located in Clayton Valley, is the only lithium brine producer in North America and has been in operation since 1966.
The Sarcobatus Flats Project is a desert playa (dry lake bed) located in Nye County, western Nevada along state route 95 approximately 109 kilometres south of Tonopah and 72 kilometres southeast of Clayton Valley and consists of 105 placer claims totaling 1,076 hectares. Highly anomalous concentrations of lithium, ranging between 210 and 340ppm Li, have been encountered from a preliminary surface sediment sampling program conducted on the Sarcobatus Flats claim group. As with the Company's other Nevada projects, there are many close similarities between 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 with the same regional hydrogeography and geochemistry as Clayton Valley. In essence, Sarcobatus Flats represents an under-explored early stage analogue to Clayton Valley.
The Fish Lake Project is located 75 kilometres southwest of Tonopah in the Fish Lake Valley, Nevada covering 1,295 hectares in Esmeralda County. International Lithium believes Fish Lake Valley has similar geological features that have acted as a trap for lithium brines in Clayton Valley 35 kilometres to the east. The United States Geological Survey (USGS) sampling at Fish Lake Valley in 1976 found lithium brines on surface. One of these samples, located on TNR claims, contained 200 parts per million (ppm) lithium. This shows that modern Fish Lake Valley has geological and climatic conditions where lithium brine can form. At Clayton Valley drilling has shown that as climatic conditions went through cycles, successive layers of lithium bearing evaporates were deposited.
