Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - January 15, 2019) - Latin American Minerals Inc. (TSXV: LAT) ('LAT' or the 'Company') is pleased to announce its intention to complete a geophysical work program on its Butt Township property (the 'Property') in northeastern Ontario, Canada. The Company has signed a contract with a service provider, Generic Geo Inc., who will manage the work program.

Proposed Work Program

A two phase exploration program will be completed on the Property. The first phase will consist of high-resolution drone magnetic airborne geophysics, which will help to identify controlling structures and lithologies that may be prospective for mineralization. The second phase, to be completed following a review of the drone magnetic survey, will consist of induced polarization ground geophysics over the most compelling targets on the project which will help to identify targets at depth which may be prospective for mineralization. Following these programs and a review of results, the Company should be in a position to prepare a trenching and diamond drilling program on the Property.

Property Summary and Highlights

The Property consists of 133 mineral claims covering approximately 1,621 hectares in Butt Township, District of Nipissing, Ontario. Uranium and rare-earth bearing pitchblende was discovered on the Property in the early 1900's. The Property lies within the Kiosk geological domain and is underlain by mafic, quartzo-feldspathic, and metapelitic geological units. These various geological units host radioactive granitic pegmatite dikes which contain minerals such as allanite, uraninite, pyrochlore, columbite, and other rare earth and uranium-bearing minerals.

The Property has never been drilled, but several historical trenching and small-scale mining operations have occurred on the Project. Advanced prospects on the Property include: the William Elliot & Mica Lake prospects, discovered in 1919 from which highly selective grab samples returned up to 79.5 % U3O8 along with high-grade rare earth elements; the Ryan, Mann and Sheehan prospect, discovered in 1921 from which selective grab samples returned up to 0.45 % U3O8 over a 3 foot chip sample; the E.J Rivers prospect, discovered in 1953 from which selective grab samples returned values of up to 9.75 % U3O8 along with high-grade rare earth elements. In addition, the Property is contiguous with Ontario Graphite's Kearney Mine property.

A summary of the more significant mineral occurrences in the area and property highlights can be seen in Figure 1.
