5. Seed capital will be used to fund exploration on the Company’s
Nemiscau & Nemiscau-Vista, Kapituka, Teilhard, Cramoisy, Voirdye
and Cascapédia lithium projects in Québec, and for general working
capital in preparation for listing Virtus on a Canadian Stock
Exchange.
VIRTUS AIMS TO GENERATE A PIPELINE OF WORLD-CLASS
PROJECTS, FOCUSING ON LITHIUM AND SAFE GEOPOLITICAL
REGIONS OF THE WORLD.

6. THE MOVE TO LITHIUM
Why Lithium?
Lithium powers modern technology: it is used in rechargeable
lithium-ion batteries for electric vehicles, grid-scale energy
storage, phones, laptops, cameras, gaming consoles and
hundreds of other electronic devices. Lithium-ion batteries are
used increasingly for bikes, power tools, forklifts, cranes and
other industrial equipment.
We have already seen Tesla increase the land holding of their
$5 billion lithium-ion battery factory currently under construction
in Nevada—and the company recently announced the Model 3,
which has already hit over 300,000 pre-orders
And Faraday Future recently struck a deal to build a $1 billion
electric car plant in NV.
Due to lithium’s key role in batteries, and the ever expanding
need of batteries to power our modern lives, lithium seems
untouched by economic downturns.

7. BUT IT’S NOT JUST ABOUT TESLA
Demand is growing, not slowing.
It’s not all about Tesla. While Tesla has stoked plenty of
excitement around lithium, it’s far from the only end user.
Google, Apple, Sony, and vehicle manufacturers, such as Audi
and Mercedes, had entered the space in earnest1.
Meanwhile, battery majors, such as LG Chem and Samsung, all
have expansion plans for their new plants. Companies like BYD
are also building their own battery plants. Boston Power is
looking to expand, while Foxconn said they were going to enter
battery manufacturing.
At least 12 lithium ion “megafactories” are forecast to come
online by 2020 (new or existing plants being planned,
constructed or expanded to gigawatt-hour capacity), with seven
of them located in China.

9. LITHIUM IN TIGHT SUPPLY
So where will new supply come from?
Demand for lithium - one of the hottest commodities on the
planet and the only one to show positive price movement in
2015 - is poised to continue on its upward trajectory, becoming
the world’s new gasoline and earning the moniker of “White
Petroleum”.
However, new supply of low-cost lithium is constrained: political,
capital, technical and environmental issues are forcing new
projects either into failure or causing delays.
This has caused recent spot prices for lithium in China to have
doubled, resetting price expectations.
Proof of unstoppable lithium demand can be found in the fact
that even though natural gas, coal and gasoline prices are down
50% or more, lithium prices increased by about 20% in 2014
and by a larger percentage in 2015.

Q3/2016
Lithium Carbonate spot price per metric tonne ($ ‘000)
The price of 99%-pure lithium
carbonate imported to China more
than doubled in the two months to
the end of December, to $13,000 a
tonne.
The spike mostly reflected
concerns about the future liquidity
of China’s spot market.
Sales of “new energy” vehicles in
China almost tripled in the first ten
months of 2015 compared with the
same period in 2014, to 171,000.

12. QUÉBEC: THE PLACE TO EXPLORE!
Québec holds the sixth spot in the Fraser Institute’s 2014 rankings of
the world’s most attractive jurisdictions for mining investments.
Specifically, Québec is favourable because it:
has transparent mining laws.
has a secure investment climate—political stability, transparent
institutions, a sound financial system and a robust economy.
has active mining and exploration markets with historically good
access to capital.
it is mining-friendly—it is Canada’s second-largest producer of
gold, and is highly prospective for other minerals, including
lithium, REEs, base metals and uranium.
Additionally, Canada ranked first on the Behre Dolbear list of the
best countries for mining investment (2014).

13. KAPITUKA
LITHIUM PROJECT
QUÉBEC, CANADA
VIRTUS HOLDS 100% INTEREST IN
KAPITUKA LITHIUM PROJECT,
WHICH IS HIGHLY PROSPECTIVE
FOR LITHIUM AND RARE EARTH
ELEMENTS.

14. The Kapituka exploration project comprises 55
claims for a total of 2,869 ha in the James Bay
territory of Northern Quebec. The claim blocks lie
some 5 km south from the world-class Whabouchi
lithium deposit of Nemaska Lithium Inc..
The Kapituka project claims were part of a claim
group belonging to Osisko Exploration (Virginia
Gold) back in 2003.
KAPITUKA, QC.

15. Property geology
The Kapituka property covers a small portion of an area underlain
by gneissic rocks that hosts a series of pegmatite dikes that
extend along strike for over 100 km. Pegmatites in this area are
lithium bearing; the most significant to date is the Whabouchi
deposit 5 km to the north that is being developed by Nemaska
Lithium (NMX-TSX.V).
The Whabouchi lithium deposit is chiefly
made up of a spodumene bearing white
pegmatite which has a length of 1,2 km
with a 40 m width. In comparison, the
Kapituka Project has at minimum two
untested granitic pegmatite dikes that
each extend for over 3 km and 1.6 km in
length each.
Critical Elements (CRE.V) holds adjacent
properties to Virtus's Kapituka project and
are prospecting for lithium in those
scattered pegmatites/pegmatitic granites
which are known to occur over a strike
length of 110 km for their content in
lithium, tantalum, niobium and beryllium.
Initial prospecting program is planned to
begin as soon as financing is secured.
KAPITUKA, QC.

16. NEMISCAU
LITHIUM PROJECT
QUÉBEC, CANADA
VIRTUS HOLDS 100% INTEREST IN
NEMISCAU AND NEMISCAU VISTA,
WHICH ARE HIGHLY PROSPECTIVE
FOR LITHIUM AND RARE EARTH
ELEMENTS.

17. The Nemiscau Project area comprises two
contiguous claim blocks, Nemiscau and Nemiscau-
Vista, totalling 89 claims covering 4,744 ha (c. 47
km2) in the James Bay region of Québec.
The property is approximately 5 km from and on
strike with the world-class Whabouchi Lithium Mine
(27.3 million tonnes (P+P) at 1.46% Li2O),
currently being developed by Nemaska Lithium
Inc. (TSX.V NMX).
Work carried out by previous operators at
Nemiscau is minimal: no drilling has yet been
completed on the property.
Exploration is planned to begin as soon as
financing is secured.
NEMISCAU, QC.

18. Property geology
Nemiscau is located in the Superior Craton of the Canadian Shield.
Regional and property-scale geology consists mainly of granites and
oligoclase gneisses with amphibolites and pegmatites reported
regionally.
The Nemiscau area has been considered prospective since the
1950s, and claims have been held by a number of companies. Though
little work has been carried out, several minerals of potential economic
significance have been reported on a regional scale.
Phase I - Thorough sampling and
geochemical analysis of known granites
and pegmatites to assess rare element
fertility along with a property‐wide surface
till and boulder sampling program to
detect pegmatite float and/or LCT
indicator minerals (CAN $220,990);
Phase 2 - A helicopter magnetic survey at
100 m line spacing to define bedrock
geology and structural controls for
pegmatite emplacement on the property
followed by in‐fill surface till sampling,
base of till sampling, soil geochemistry
and further geochemical sampling of
bedrock to define drill targets (CAN
$303,765);
Phase 3 - An approximately 2,000 –
4,000 m diamond drilling program to test
targets identified in Phase 2 (estimated
CAN $700,000).
NEMISCAU, QC.

LITHIUM AND RARE EARTH
ELEMENTS.

20. TEILHARD AND
CRAMOISY
The Teilhard property is located 25 km
ENE of the Whabouchi deposit and 5
km northwest of the Lemare lithium
discovery (Critical Elements
Corporation).
The Teilhard property is composed of
45 Claims covering an area of 2,396
hectares.
The Cramoisy property is located 27 km ENE of the
Whabouchi deposit and 7.5 km north of the Lemare lithium
discovery (Critical Elements Corporation).
The Cramoisy property is composed of 14 Claims covering
an area of 745 hectares.

23. CASCAPÉDIA
LITHIUM PROJECT
QUÉBEC, CANADA
VIRTUS HOLDS 100% INTEREST IN
CASCAPÉDIA, WHICH HAS
HISTORICALLY RETURNED
ANOMALOUS LITHIUM IN SOIL
RESULTS.

24. The project area comprises 14 claims
covering approximately 700 ha in the
southern Gaspe Peninsula of eastern
Québec.
Work carried out by the Ministry of Energy
and Resources includes property-scale soil
sampling, the results of which show
anomalous lithium.
Further work is required to establish whether
elevated lithium values on the property are
hosted by clay minerals in sedimentary rocks
or are associated with pegmatites.
CASCAPÉDIA, QC.

25. Property geology
The Cascapédia Project, in southern Gaspe Peninsula is underlain
with Ordovician to Lower Silurian metasedimentary rocks of the
Matapédia and Honorat Groups.
Lithological units are limestone, shale, sandstone and conglomerates.
A geochemical survey carried out in 1988 returned anomalous lithium-
in-soil values. A preliminary interpretation concludes that the
Matapédia and Honorat Groups host Lithium bearing minerals that are
most likely contained within pegmatites.
Phase 1 would consist of a site visit where
geologists would collect rock samples for
geochemistry and petrography to
investigate the source of lithium anomalies
found in the soil and rocks.
The initial budget for Phase 1 is CAN
$40,000.

Geochemistry summary
The 1988 geochemical survey
returned lithium -in-soil values
ranging from 41 to 146 ppm Li over a
3.5 km strike length and 2.0 km width
normal to strike.
Further work is required to establish
whether elevated lithium values on
the property are hosted by clay
minerals in sedimentary rocks or are
associated with pegmatites.
