Orford Mining (now Alamos Gold) last worked the Joutel North-West property in 2022-2023, principally focused on the South Gold Zone. Some of the drilling highlights from the South Gold Zone drilling by Orford Mining are shown below and in Exhibits 1, 2 and 3:23-JE-004 returned 1.6 m grading 4.1 g/t Au and 30.1 m @ 1.1g/t Au (see Orford Mining news release dated February 21, 2022)23-JE-015 returned 54.7 m @GMan returned 20.64 m @ 1.11 g/t Au including 4.15 m @ 1.78 g/t Au and 0.64 m @MB returned 15.7 m @ 1.7 g/t Au and 14.2 m @ 2.2g/t Au (see Globex news release dated April 20, 2023)The South Gold Zone clearly demonstrates zones for thick mineralization with potential for a higher-grade core that may continue to depth as indicated by hole 83-03 that intersected 6.3 m @ 2.9 g/t Au including 2.3 m @ 5.3g/t Au (Exhibit 3).There is also a potential parallel zone to the north of the South Gold Zone where hole 23-JE-007 intersected 16.1 m of 1.3 g/t Au. This alteration system remains open in all directions.Outside the South Gold Zone there has been limited exploration despite an abundance of geophysical and structural targets along the 11 km of property covering the south break of the Casa Berardi Structural zone and another 6 kms of strike along the Gagne property which is southwest of the main Casa Berardi Structural zone.The Gagne Property is contiguous to the south end of the Joutel North-West property and southwest of the main Casa Berardi Structural zone. The property hosts high-grade gold in previous trenching reported to grade up to 22.6 g/t Au over 1.5 metres. This sector of the property has received limited exploration work to date. The Gagne Property also has a number of copper and silver drill hole intersections in drill hole VAL-01 of up to 1.63% Cu and 11.5 g/t Ag over 0.7 m and Joutel PS drilling returning results of up to 7.86% Cu, 72.2 g/t Ag and 0.20 g/t Au over 2.21 m.There are 46 mining claims on the Joutel North-West property and 24 mining claims on the Gagne property in the Eeyou-Istchee James Bay Territory of Quebec, about 65 km south-west of Matagami and 8 km northwest of the former mining village of Joutel. The Properties are accessible by Highway 109 and a there is high voltage power to the former producing Agnico Eagle Gold mine Eagle-Telbel nearby.Exhibit 1.

Edison Lithium Spin-Out of Cobalt Assets

Vancouver, British Columbia, May 19, 2022 – Edison Lithium Corp. (TSXV: EDDY, OTCQB: EDDYF; FSE: VV0) (“Edison” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that its Board of Directors has unanimously approved a proposed spinout of its cobalt assets in northeastern Ontario, referred to as the Kittson Cobalt Property (the “Spin-Out”), into a newly incorporated subsidiary (“SpinCo”). The Company
will continue to hold its interest in the Antofalla Salar and Pipanaco Salar lithium projects in Argentina.

It is proposed that the Spin-Out will be carried out by way of statutory plan of arrangement (the “Arrangement”) pursuant to the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia). Common shares of SpinCo (the “SpinCo Shares”) will be distributed to shareholders of Edison on the basis of one SpinCo Share for every one common share of Edison held. There will be no change in Edison shareholders’ holdings in the Company as a result of the Spin-Out. If the Spin-Out is completed, shareholders will own shares in both companies - Edison, which will be focused on its Argentinian lithium brine projects, and SpinCo, which will be focused on cobalt exploration in Canada. The Company expects the Spin-Out will increase
shareholder value by allowing capital markets to ascribe value to the Kittson Cobalt Property independent of the Company’s lithium properties.

The proposed Spin-Out will be subject to the terms of an arrangement agreement between Edison and SpinCo, the approval of shareholders at a meeting of Edison shareholders, the approval of the British Columbia Supreme Court and the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange (the “Exchange”). The Company intends to seek a listing of the SpinCo Shares on the Exchange but no assurance can be provided that such a listing will be obtained. Listing will be subject to SpinCo fulfilling all of the requirements of the Exchange.

Nathan Rotstein, Chief Executive Officer of Edison comments, “It is our intention to build shareholder value by providing investors with an ownership stake in two separate specialized companies. Both companies will be in the hot battery metals sector. Each company will operate as a separate entity and will enjoy distinction in the exponential growth of the EV market.” In connection with the Spin-Out, the Company intends to undertake a private placement (“Private Placement”) of up to 60,000,000 subscription receipts (“Subscription Receipt”) priced at $0.05 per Subscription Receipt in order to raise gross proceeds of up to $3,000,000 (the “Escrowed Proceeds”), which will be held in escrow subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain customary escrow release conditions (the “Escrow Release Conditions”). Each Subscription Receipt will entitle the holder thereof to receive,
upon conversion and without any further action on the part of such holder or payment of any additional consideration, one unit of SpinCo (a "Unit"), with each Unit comprised of one (1) SpinCo Share and one common share purchase warrant (each, a "Warrant"). Each Warrant shall be exercisable into one (1) SpinCo Share at an anticipated exercise price of $0.08 per SpinCo Share, for an exercise period of two years.

The conversion of the Subscription Receipts will be subject to the satisfaction or the Escrow Release Conditions, including the closing of the Arrangement and the listing of the SpinCo Shares on the Exchange, on or prior to a date to be determined (the "Outside Date"). Upon the satisfaction or waiver of the Escrow Release Conditions, the Escrowed Proceeds will be released to SpinCo. Upon receipt thereof, SpinCo is
expected to use the Escrowed Proceeds to fund exploration of the Kittson Cobalt Property and for general working capital, including, potential future acquisitions. In the event that the Escrow Release Conditions are not satisfied prior to the Outside Date, the Escrowed Proceeds will be returned pro rata to each holder of Subscription Receipts, and the Subscription Receipts will be automatically cancelled, void and of no value or effect. The Subscription Receipts and the SpinCo Shares and Warrants issuable in exchange for the Subscription Receipts will be subject to a four-month statutory hold period expiring four months and one
day from the closing date of the Private Placement.

Further details of the Spin-Out and the related Private Placement will follow by additional press releases. Timing of the Spin-Out and Private Placement will be based on prevailing market conditions. The particulars of the Spin-Out and related Private Placement are not yet final and shareholders are cautioned that there can
be no assurance that the Spin-Out and Private Placement will be completed on the terms described herein or at all.

About the Kittson Cobalt Property The Kittson Cobalt Property includes three historical producing Co-Ag mines, namely the Kittson-Cobalt Mine, Shakt-Davis and Edison (also known as Darby) Mine. These mines, unlike those in the nearby Cobalt silver camp, were developed primarily for their cobalt content, and interestingly possessed significant gold content (locally >1 oz/ton).

(the “Technical Report”), please visit Edison’s
website at www.edisonlithium.com. The Technical Report is also available under the Company’s profile on SEDAR (www.sedar.com).

About the Antofalla Salar and Pipanaco Salar Lithium Projects In 2021, Edison acquired Resource Ventures S.A., an Argentinian corporation that owns or controls the rights to over 148,000 hectares (365,708 acres) of prospective lithium brine claims in the province of Catamarca, Argentina. The claims are principally located in the two geological basins known as the Antofalla Salar and the Pipanaco Salar in South America’s famed Lithium Triangle. The Antofalla Salar hosts one of the largest lithium-bearing basins in the region. It is over 130 km long and
varies between 5 km and 20 km across. The Company’s assets in and around the Antofalla Salar are made up of approximately 107,000 hectares (264,397 acres) of semi-contiguous claims in the northern and southern parts of this salar.

The Company’s claims in the Pipanaco Salar consist of over 41,000 hectares (101,311 acres) of core areas in this salar. These properties are in the very early stages of exploration with minimal surface samples having been collected to date.

About Edison Lithium Corp. Edison Lithium Corp. is a Canadian-based junior mining exploration company focused on the procurement, exploration and development of cobalt, lithium, and other energy metal properties. The Company's
acquisition strategy is based on acquiring affordable, cost-effective, and highly regarded mineral properties in areas with proven geological potential.

Edison is building a portfolio of quality assets capable of supplying critical materials to the battery industry and intends to capitalize on and have its shareholders
benefit from the renewed interest in the battery metals space.
