Tom Lewis, President and CEO of Lithium Corporation recently commented, "I am delighted that we are going to collaborate on Fish Lake Valley with Altura, after our long association with them, and believe this arrangement could usher in the dawn of a new era for lithium-in-brine exploration and development in the Great Basin". Under the guidance of James Brown the Managing Director of Altura, AJM/ALTAF has a history of development and mining, having raised in the order of $250,000,000 in the past decade, and owned various interests in several mines during this period.
