Pure Energy Minerals Limited (TSX VENTURE:PE) (OTCQB:PEMIF) (the “Company” or “Pure Energy”) announces that it has entered into a third amending agreement to the Clayton Valley Option Agreement (the “Option Agreement”) with GeoXplor Corp. (“GeoXplor”) and Clayton Valley Lithium (“CVL”). The Option Agreement covers mineral claims in Clayton Valley, Nevada that were the subject of the original agreement with GeoXplor and CVL in 2014, as well as those previously held by Lithium X Energy Corp (“Lithium X”), which were acquired by the Company in May, 2017 (the “Property”).

In addition, the cash payments to GeoXplor have been amended as follows:

Corporate Update

The Company continues to operate with a very low cash balance and a substantial net working capital deficit, although approximately 37% of the deficit is owed to Company insiders. The team is working diligently to seek financing to meet its cash needs, including the new option payment schedule reported above. Discussions regarding equity and debt arrangements are active with multiple interested parties, but there can be no assurance at this time that financings will be completed in time to meet the revised option payment deadline. If the Company fails to make the option payments by the deadlines, the Optionors have the ability to initiate a default process under the Option Agreement, including a 30-day cure period. While there are significant areas of Federal mining claims including inferred mineral resources and exploration drill targets under the Company’s control and in good standing that are not part of this Option Agreement, the claims governed by this Option Agreement include the majority of the inferred mineral resource at the CV Project.

Pure Energy also announces that Mr. Scott Shellhaas has resigned as a director of the Company for personal reasons, effective immediately. Scott has been on the board since April 2017. The Company thanks Scott for his service and wishes him luck in his future endeavors.
