GRD Grounded Lithium Corp

CALGARY, AB, May 4, 2023 /CNW/ - (TSXV: GRD) (OTCQB: GRDAF) - Grounded Lithium Corp. ("GLC" or the "Company") announces that it filed its inaugural annual information form ("AIF") for the year ended December 31, 2022 on the System for Electronic Analysis and Retrieval ("SEDAR").  An electronic copy of the AIF may be obtained on the Company's website at www.groundedlithium.com or on the Company's SEDAR profile at www.sedar.com.

The filing of the Company's AIF is in conjunction with the concurrent filing of the Company's Preliminary Short Form Base Shelf Prospectus dated May 4, 2023 with the British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba and Ontario securities regulatory authorities (the "Regulatory Authorities").  Assuming a receipt for the Final Short Form Base Shelf Prospectus (the "Final Shelf") is obtained from the Regulatory Authorities, the Final Shelf is expected to support longer term fundraising efforts to achieve our forecasted goal of commercial production in H2 2026. The Final Shelf, once filed, can remain in place for a period of 25 months and securities issued under it will be free of resale restrictions.

GLC is a publicly traded lithium brine exploration and development company that controls approximately 4.2 million metric tons of lithium carbonate equivalent of inferred resource over our focused land holdings in Southwest Saskatchewan.  GLC's multi-faceted business model involves the consolidation, delineation, exploitation and ultimately development of our opportunity base to fulfill our vision to build a best-in-class, environmentally responsible, Canadian lithium producer supporting the global energy transition shift.  U.S. investors can find current financial disclosure and Real-Time Level 2 quotes for the Company on https://www.otcmarkets.com/.
