ESO Uranium Corporation (TSX-V: ESO), the Company is pleased to announce that it has acquired, by staking, claims adjacent to its optioned claims in and around the Teels Marsh playa. These will become part of the optioned properties according to the terms of the respective option agreements. The original claims optioned amounted to 188 claims with an area of approximately 3,880 acres and the additional claims add more than 5000 acres.

Historical reporting by the US Geological Survey (Open File Report: 76-567) indicates Lithium concentrations in playa brines of up to 850 ppm. The Journal “Clays and Clay Minerals” (Vol. 29, No.5, 341-352, 1981) of The Clay Minerals Society reports boron concentrations from interstitial brines associated with tuff beds in the Teels Marsh playa. Samples located within claims staked on open ground on behalf of ESO returned values of 699, 719 and 893 ppm (mg/liter) Boron which is equivalent to 2,250, 2,315 and 2,875 ppm borate (B2O3) respectively.

The claims were acquired in order to extend mineral tenure for the parties over the southwest end of the playa and its pediment covered flanks. The areas covered by pediment indicate areas where sand and gravel have been periodically flushed into the margins of the playa, originally a deep basin, by the larger drainages. Subsequent flooding by lithium and boron rich waters trapped in the basin would form brines by evaporation and charge the sand and gravel beds with brine. Brines with the concentrations reported above constitute a target for potentially economic extraction of lithium and boron minerals.
