ALX Resources Corp. Update on Lithium Exploration Plans, James Bay Region, Quebec

Vancouver, April 25, 2023ALX Resources Corp. (“ALX” or the “Company”) (TSXV: AL; FSE: 6LLN; OTC: ALXEF) is pleased to provide an update on its 2023 prospecting program at its Hydra Lithium Project (“Hydra”, or the “Project”) located in the James Bay Region of the Province of Quebec, Canada. The focus of the program is to explore for lithium-cesium-tantalum (“LCT”) type pegmatites by way of systematic prospecting, geological mapping and geochemical sampling (the “Program”).

2023 Exploration Plans at Hydra

ALX has contracted a Quebec-based geological consulting company and a helicopter for the initial phase of the Program. Accommodation in the James Bay region for exploration workers is sparse due to the immense amount of lithium exploration pending for the 2023 spring/summer season, but the Company secured lodgings and will base its initial work from the town of Radisson, Quebec. The Program is planned to begin on May 31, 2023 and the first phase of work will continue until early July 2023.

ALX will utilize a high-resolution drone during the evaluation of the Hydra sub-projects to optimize the process of locating and assessing prospective pegmatite outcrops. Samples will be fast-tracked for analysis whenever possible to provide prompt information regarding the geochemistry of sampled pegmatites.

About Hydra

Hydra is 100%-owned by ALX with no royalties applicable, and consists of eight sub-projects totaling 29,263 hectares (72,309 acres) that are known as Volta (4,806 ha.), Echo (5,537 ha.), Nike (2,056 ha.), Sprite (3,438 ha.), Cobra (4,249 ha.), Viper (1,280 ha.), Python West (4,298 ha.) and Python East (3,219 ha.). The sub-projects were selected for staking based upon the presence of historical lithium, cesium and tantalum lake sediment anomalies and by a review of public-domain geological mapping. ALX utilized an artificial intelligence search of Quebec government assessment files that found the Python West lithium showing in a pegmatite discovered during a historical uranium exploration program. A 2008 sample from the pegmatite returned a value of 330 parts per million lithium.

ALX believes that Hydra is highly prospective for LCT pegmatites, as suggested by the highly-positive exploration reports from the Corvette Lithium Deposit, but is underexplored because historical exploration carried out in the James Bay region was mainly focussed on gold and base metals. The James Bay Hydroelectric Project (total investment by Hydro-Québec is estimated at greater than CAD$16 billion since the early 1970s) has created infrastructure for mineral exploration in the form of several all-weather roads, including the Trans-Taiga Road. Serviceable airstrips are located in the vicinity providing aircraft support capability for Hydra.
