Toronto, Ontario – March 23, 2023 – Green Shift Commodities Ltd. (TSXV: GCOM), (“Green Shift”, “GCOM” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that it has signed a definitive agreement (the “Agreement”) with New Peak Metals Limited (“New Peak”) (ASX: NPM), to acquire (the “Acquisition”) a 25% interest in Pampa Litio S.A. (“Pampa Litio”). Pampa Litio is a private Argentinean company exploring for hard rock spodumene bearing pegmatites in the Pampean Ranges of Central Argentina.

Pursuant to the Agreement dated March 22, 2023, GCOM has agreed to pay CAD$150,000 in cash and to issue 535,714 common shares of GCOM (the “Common Shares”) as consideration for New Peak’s 25% interest in Pampa Litio; provided that, in certain circumstances, the Company has agreed to pay CAD$75,000 in cash in lieu of the issuance of the Common Shares. The Common Shares will be issued at a deemed price of $0.14, per share, which is the 7-day volume weighted average trading price of the Common Shares traded on the TSX Venture Exchange (the “TSXV”) up to the date prior to signing of the Agreement. Completion of the Acquisition is conditional upon the approval of the TSXV and the satisfaction of certain other closing conditions customary in transactions of this nature.

Any Common Shares issued in connection with the Acquisition will be subject to a hold period expiring four months and one day from the date of issuance. There are no finders’ fees payable in connection with the Acquisition and New Peak is an arms-length party with respect to the Company.

Pampa Litio was created by Argentinean geologists to explore for hard rock lithium bearing pegmatites, particularly within the Province of San Luis which has historical occurrences of lithium bearing pegmatites. New Peak acquired an interest in the Mineral Exploration Tenements of Pampa Litio and completed a number of early-stage exploration programs. GCOM is entering into this Agreement to continue this exploration in a highly prospective region.

To date Pampa Litio has applied for four exploration titles totaling 34,300 hectares within the San Luis Province in Argentina. The Pampean Ranges are host to numerous granitic pegmatites with historic mineral resources that have been mined during the past 90 years, accounting for the majority of the feldspar, quartz, mica, beryllium, tungsten, lithium, tantalum and rubidium produced in Argentina.

Trumbull Fisher CEO and Director commented, “We are pleased to announce this transaction which provides GCOM with exposure to a second hard rock lithium project in Argentina, following the recent acquisition of the Rio Negro project. Argentina is well known as a top tier jurisdiction for lithium brine projects however is lesser known for its hard rock potential. Increasingly, and for good reason, hard rock lithium assets are gaining favour amongst the investment community thanks to recent stand out successes in Australia, Canada and Brazil. Argentina’s hard rock potential is sizable and relatively untapped as of yet. Now, with a second project in our portfolio, and a dedicated in- country geological team with decades of experience in hard rock lithium exploration, we believe GCOM is well positioned as a first mover in Argentina and we are excited about the potential of both projects.”

About Green Shift Commodities Ltd.

Green Shift Commodities Ltd. is focused on the exploration and development of commodities needed to help decarbonize and meet net-zero goals.

The Company is developing the Berlin Deposit in Colombia. Apart from uranium, for clean nuclear energy, the Berlin Deposit contains battery commodities including nickel, phosphate, and vanadium. Phosphate is a key component of lithium-ion ferro-phosphate (“LFP”) batteries that are being used by a growing list of electric vehicle manufacturers. Nickel is a component of various lithium-ion batteries, while vanadium is the element used in vanadium redox flow batteries. Neodymium, one of the rare earth elements contained within the Berlin Deposit, is a key component of powerful magnets that are used to increase the efficiency of electric motors and in generators in wind turbines.

The Company recently acquired the district scale Rio Negro Project in Argentina. This Project represents an exciting opportunity to unlock the potential of over 500,000 Ha of land, known to contain hard rock lithium pegmatite occurrences that were first discovered in the 1960s but have seen little exploration since.
