Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward Looking
Information
This news release contains certain forward-looking
information and forward-looking statements (collectively
"forward-looking statements") within the meaning of applicable
securities legislation. All statements, other than statements of
historical fact, are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking
statements in this news release include, but are not limited to,
statements regarding the business plans, expectations and
objectives of American Lithium. Forward-looking statements are
frequently identified by such words as "may", "will", "plan",
"expect", "anticipate", "estimate", "intend", "indicate",
"scheduled", "target", "goal", "potential", "subject", "efforts",
"option" and similar words, or the negative connotations thereof,
referring to future events and results. Forward-looking statements
are based on the current opinions and expectations of management
and are not, and cannot be, a guarantee of future results or
events. Although American Lithium believes that the current
opinions and expectations reflected in such forward-looking
statements are reasonable based on information available at the
time, undue reliance should not be placed on forward-looking
statements since American Lithium can provide no assurance that
such opinions and expectations will prove to be correct. All
forward-looking statements are inherently uncertain and subject to
a variety of assumptions, risks and uncertainties, including risks,
uncertainties and assumptions related to: American Lithium's
ability to achieve its stated goals;, which could have a material
adverse impact on many aspects of American Lithium's businesses
including but not limited to: the ability to access mineral
properties for indeterminate amounts of time, the health of the
employees or consultants resulting in delays or diminished
capacity, social or political instability in Peru which in turn could impact American
Lithium's ability to maintain the continuity of its business
operating requirements, may result in the reduced availability or
failures of various local administration and critical
infrastructure, reduced demand for the American Lithium's potential
products, availability of materials, global travel restrictions,
and the availability of insurance and the associated costs; the
ongoing ability to work cooperatively with stakeholders, including
but not limited to local communities and all levels of government;
the potential for delays in exploration or development activities;
the interpretation of drill results, the geology, grade and
continuity of mineral deposits; the possibility that any future
exploration, development or mining results will not be consistent
with our expectations; risks that permits will not be obtained as
planned or delays in obtaining permits; mining and development
risks, including risks related to accidents, equipment breakdowns,
labour disputes (including work stoppages, strikes and loss of
personnel) or other unanticipated difficulties with or
interruptions in exploration and development; risks related to
commodity price and foreign exchange rate fluctuations; risks
related to foreign operations; the cyclical nature of the industry
in which American Lithium operates; risks related to failure to
obtain adequate financing on a timely basis and on acceptable terms
or delays in obtaining governmental approvals; risks related to
environmental regulation and liability; political and regulatory
risks associated with mining and exploration; risks related to the
uncertain global economic environment and the effects upon the
global market generally, any of which could continue to negatively
affect global financial markets, including the trading price of
American Lithium's shares and could negatively affect American
Lithium's ability to raise capital and may also result in
additional and unknown risks or liabilities to American Lithium.
Other risks and uncertainties related to prospects, properties and
business strategy of American Lithium are identified in the "Risk
Factors" section of American Lithium's Management's Discussion and
Analysis filed on October 15, 2024,
and in recent securities filings available at www.sedarplus.ca.
Actual events or results may differ materially from those projected
in the forward-looking statements. American Lithium undertakes no
obligation to update forward-looking statements except as required
by applicable securities laws. Investors should not place undue
reliance on forward-looking statements.
Cautionary Note Regarding 32 Concessions
Thirty-two of the one-hundred-seventy-four concessions
comprising the Falchani and Macusani Projects are currently subject
to Administrative and Judicial processes in Peru to overturn resolutions issued by
INGEMMET and the Mining Council of MINEM in February 2019 and July
2019, respectively, which declared title to thirty-two
concessions invalid due to late receipt of the annual validity
payments. On November 2, 2021,
American Lithium was awarded a favorable ruling in regard to title
to the concessions, but on November 26,
2021, appeals of the judicial ruling were lodged
by INGEMMET and MINEM. A three-judge tribunal of Peru's Superior Court unanimously upheld the
ruling in a decision reported in November
2023. American Lithium was subsequently notified that
INGEMMET and MINEM have filed petitions to the Supreme Court of
Peru to assume jurisdiction in the
proceedings. Given the precedent of the original ruling it is hoped
that the Supreme Court will not assume jurisdiction; however, there
is no assurance of the outcome at this time.
