About Wealth Minerals Ltd.
Wealth's strategy is to acquire undervalued projects with low
exploration risk, attractive grades and potentially low capital
requirements. Management insist that projects be located in
stable and development-friendly geopolitical jurisdictions and that
capital required for development is not excessive within the
context of each commodity. The focus over the past few years
has been on the acquisition of precious metals projects. The
proposed acquisition of Li3 offers a new kind of opportunity where
helping to meet emerging lithium demand is expected to create
additional value for shareholders. The Company will also
continue to move forward with its existing precious metals
projects, such as Yanamina (Peru)
and Valsequillo (Mexico).
