Andrew Brodkey, Chief Executive Officer and President of Pan American Lithium Corp. (TSX VENTURE: PL)(PINK SHEETS: PALTF) was recently featured in The Wall Street Transcript. Mr. Brodkey's full interview is posted on the company's Web site: http://www.panamericanlithium.com. In the interview, Mr. Brodkey told the editors of The Wall Street Transcript that the nature and quality of the company's lithium mining projects combined with the recently announced Letter-of-Intent with a large international strategic partner provide investors with an opportunity to actively participate in the growing demand for lithium.

According to Mr. Brodkey, "Lithium is a new burgeoning market that's opening up many possibilities in the mining industry. Just as we've seen the explosion in electronic devices, the utilization of lithium-ion batteries in cars so they're clean and green has become a main driver of the development of lithium. Battery usage today is roughly 30 percent of all lithium demand in the world and it's growing at a 25 percent rate per year."

Mr. Brodkey also commented that Pan American Lithium owns interests in nine salars located in Chile's Atacama Region III where the company's strategy is to explore and develop surface brine lakes with the goal of producing up to 10,000 tpy of lithium carbonate production. "Our first order of business is to go to these easy tappable resources and immediately do a calculation that tells us the amount of contained lithium." The company's other project is an option to acquire an interest in a geothermal brine project in Mexico, which includes brines produced from deep geothermal wells that have already been drilled by the Cierro Prieto power plant located in Baja California, Mexico.

"Our Mexican partners who own a private company called Escondidas entered into a joint venture with CPI Internacional, the owners of the brine concessions, to commercialize the geothermal brines," stated Mr. Brodkey. Following successful due diligence and exercise of the option, Mr. Brodkey stated, "Pan American plans to purchase a 76 percent or controlling interest in Escondidas, giving us an indirect 25 percent of the project."

Mr. Brodkey, having 25 years experience in the mining industry as a mining engineer, lawyer and senior executive, envisions Pan American Lithium Corp. as the strongest player in the junior lithium market. "Among the lithium junior world, of the roughly 50 companies that recently appeared on the scene, we're the best play. Our goal from day one was to be as low as possible on the cost curve. We strive to be the first into production and fill the market space. We've got very strong strategic off-take partners backing us."
