TNR Gold Corp. / International Lithium Strengthen Management and Technical Depth TNR.v, CZX.v, SQM, ROC, FMC, WLC.v, CLQ.v, AVL.to, RM.v, LI.v, RES.v,


"We are glad to see our Global Exploration play in Lithium and REE among the most active companies in the field with acknowledgement by the major industry magazine. Our positive feeling should not be mistaken for investment advise, but article gives all interested a very good overview of the market and active companies involved in Lithium and REE space. Make it your first point of reference even if you are already in the market. TNR Gold TNR.v has addressed the major concern in the article from the very beginning of building its Lithium and REE start up in Lithium and REE space. Credibility of the Team is the most important value in Junior mining space for us. CEO and President Gary Schellenberg has demonstrated ability to attract the best people for his Team during good and bad times."






Very impressive personalities are coming on board of our Next Big Thing in Lithium and REE Global Exploration play. Gary Schellenberg is building TNR Gold into a next stage - resources development and, can we say, assessment of production opportunities? In his quote in NR he has dropped word Exploration:


"The addition of these two highly qualified individuals to our team confirms our commitment and advances our objective of creating a global lithium and rare earth elements company at the forefront of the industry".


Mike Sieb is apparently a very strong person on execution side and has been building a full production facility - Nickel mine in Australia. By this move TNR Gold and International Lithium Corp. add a very important level of expertise in building a resource base and moving the company into next level of developing its portfolio of properties from exploration stage and with focus on production.
