Stria Reports 11.27m Grading 0.91% Li2O in Hole 975 -19-018 From Q1 2020 Drilling at Pontax

On December 2, 2021, the Company reported the results from the first six drill holes from the Company's Q1 2020 step-out drilling program at its Pontax Lithium Property (the "Property") located in west-central Eeyou Istchee James Bay Territory, Northern Québec. This most recent drilling program targeted the Pontax spodumene pegmatite prospect, the main occurrence of lithium spodumene pegmatites discovered on the Property to date. The drilling was designed to test the north-eastern and southwestern extensions of the spodumene pegmatite zone at a 50 m spacing, as well as to test for dykes inside the footwall of the zone towards the northwest. Analytical results for the five remaining drill holes are expected in the coming weeks.

Highlights:

  • Eleven BTW-diameter (56.3mm) drill holes were completed for a total of 1,510.5 m drilled (Table 1), with the results of the first six holes being released today.
  • A total of 654.3 m of core were sampled and submitted for multi-element geochemical analysis for the current program, of which 189.3 m (29%) represent spodumene bearing pegmatite.
  • Results are for two of the five drill holes positioned to test the extension of the spodumene pegmatite dyke swarm to the Northeast and for four of the five holes targeting a second series of pegmatite dykes to the Northwest of the Pontax spodumene pegmatite prospect. Results from the only step out hole to the Southwest are pending. All six holes reported today intersected spodumene bearing pegmatite dykes grading up to 3.77% Li2O over a minimum true thickness1 of 0.7 m (Table 1).
  • Best intersection1: Hole 975-19-018, drilled at -50o to a vertical depth of 101.0 m on Line 5+50N near the northeastern end of the spodumene pegmatite bearing zone, intersected numerous closely spaced dykes, with the best intercept being 11.27 m grading 0.91% Li2O at a vertical depth of 56.28 m (from 80.4 m to 96.5 m; core length: 16.1 m; Table 1), including:
  • 2.84 m1 grading 1.72% Li2O (from 84.8 m to 88.85 m; core length: 4.05 m)
  • High-gradeintercept in Hole 975-19-020, drilled on Line 5+00N at -50o degrees to a vertical depth 13.58 m, with 3.36 m1 grading 2.55% Li2O (from 19.4 m to 24.2 m; core length: 4.8 m).
  • The spodumene bearing pegmatite dyke swarm remains open along strike to the northeast and at depth, while thinning out toward the southwest, with a decrease in lithium grades in the footwall towards the Northwest.
  • Metabasalt wall rocks were excluded from intersection calculations despite being locally lithium bearing due to the presence of iron bearing holmquisite which is not amenable to lithium hydroxide production.

1True thicknesses are reported in this news release. The drill holes have been loaded into a 3-D visualization software and the three-dimensional envelope of the mineralized zone has an azimuté of 325o and dips vertical Ly. Drill holes crosseur the envelope of the mineralized zone at an angle of approximately 45o degrees. The conversion factor for true thickness is 0.7 of the core intersection length.

A map showing the location of the drill holes and main mineralized intercepts along with drill sections are available on the Company's Website at: http://strialithium.com.

The Q1 2020 drilling program was designed based on the results of the Company's December 2017 drilling program at the Pontax spodumene pegmatite prospect with seven drill holes completed for a total of 911.4 m drilled. Hole 975-17-014, drilled at -47o to a vertical depth of 107 m, yielded the best intercept of the 2017 drilling with 21.39 m1 grading 1.16% Li2O at a vertical depth of 48.2 m (from 68.90 m to 99.45 m; core length), including 5.22 m1 grading 2.18% Li2O (from 92.00 m to 99.45 m; core length), and 1.15 m1 grading 3.18% Li20 (from 68.9 m to 70.55 m; core length) (for additional details please refer to Stria new release dated November 30, 2018, available on the Company's Website

On January 10, 2022, the Company reported the results from the final five (5) drill holes (975-19-016, 017, 019, 022, and 025) from the Company's Q1-2020step-out drilling program at its Pontax Lithium Property. This most recent drilling program targeted the Pontax spodumene pegmatite prospect, the main occurrence of lithium spodumene pegmatites discovered on the Property to date. The drilling was designed to test the northeastern and southwestern extensions of the spodumene pegmatite zone at a 50-metre spacing, as well as to test for dykes inside the footwall of the zone towards the Northwest.

The results released were for the last five drill holes whose analytical results were pending at the time of the Company's news release on December 2, 2021 (available on the Company's Website at: strialithium.com; highlights provided further below). These include two (2) drill holes positioned to test the extension of the spodumene pegmatite dyke swarm to the Northeast (975-19-016 and 975-16-

  1. and one (1) drill hole positioned to test the extension of the dyke swarm to the Southwest (975-19-
  1. The fourth drill hole (975-019-017) tested the extension of the dyke swarm at depth below hole 975-19-18, while the fifth and last hole (975-19-022) tested the pegmatite dykes in the footwall spodumene pegmatite zone to the Northwest.

Highlights from holes 975-19-016, 017, 019, 022, and 0251,2,3:

  • Eleven (11) BTW-diameter drill holes were completed for a total of 1,510.5 m drilled (Table 1), with the results of the five (5) last holes being released today.
  • A total of 654.3 m of core were sampled and submitted for multi-element geochemical analysis for the current program, of which 189.3 m (29%) represent spodumene bearing pegmatite.
  • Four (4) of the five (5) holes reported today intersected spodumene bearing pegmatite dykes with individual intercepts grading from 1.09% Li2O over 1.72 m1 in hole 975-19-17 to 1.82% Li2O over 2.07 m1 in hole 975-19-019 (Table 1).
  • Best intersection: Hole 975-19-022, drilled at 325o-50o to a vertical depth of 70.7 m in the central southwest portion of the spodumene pegmatite dyke swarm on Line 1+50E, intersected numerous closely spaced dykes that define a significant intercept2 grading

    1. 1.28% Li2O over 3.89 m1 at a vertical depth of 31.2 m (from 48.65 m to 54.20 m; core length:
    2. m; Table 1). This intercept confirms the continuity of the spodumene mineralization in the footwall of the zone, previously detected in holes 975-19-023 and 024.
  • Hole 975-19-016, drilled at 325o-50o to a vertical depth of 80.3 m at the northern eastern end of the spodumene pegmatite dyke swarm, above hole 975-19-015 on Line 6+00E, intercepted two bands of spodumene pegmatite dykes, the first grading 1.45% Li2O over
    1. m1 (from 58.05 m to 60.35 m; core length: 2.30 m) and the second grading 1.11% Li2O over 2.10 m1 (from 69.30 m to 72.30 m; core length: 3.00 m) (Table 1).
  • Hole 975-19-17, drilled at 325o-50o to a vertical depth of 90.0 m in the northeastern portion of the spodumene pegmatite dyke swarm, below hole 975-19-015 on Line 4+50E, intercepted five (5) bands of spodumene pegmatite dykes ranging in grade from 1.09% Li2O over 1.72 m1 (from 36.35 m to 38.80 m; core length: 2.45 m) to 1.54% Li2O over 1.26 m1 (from 74.55 m to 76.35 m; core length: 1.80 m) (Table 1).
  • Hole 975-19-19, drilled at 325o-50o to a vertical depth of 80.35 m in the northeastern portion of the spodumene pegmatite dyke swarm, above hole 975-17-013 on Line 5+50E, intercepted five (5) bands of spodumene pegmatite dykes ranging in grade from 0,73% Li2O over 3.85 m1 (from 96.30 m to 101.80 m; core length: 5.50 m) to 1.82% Li2O over 2.07 m1 (from 90.20 m to 93.15 m; core length: 2.95 m) (Table 1).
  • Hole 975-19-25, drilled at 325o-50o to a vertical depth of 90.0 m at the southwestern extremity of the spodumene pegmatite dyke swarm, on line 0+50W, did not intersect significant spodumene mineralization.

Stria Announced Share Consolidation

On March 28, 2022 the Company announced that at the annual and special shareholder meeting held April 19, 2022, the shareholders were asked to consider, and if deemed appropriate, pass a special resolution approving an amendment to the Company's articles to consolidate the issued and outstanding common shares of the Company on the basis of one (1) post-consolidation common share for every ten (10) pre-consolidation common shares outstanding.

There were 162,110,369 common shares issued and outstanding. Post-Consolidation there were approximately 16,211,036 common shares issued and outstanding.

No fractional common shares of the Company were issued, as a result of the Consolidation. The Company rounded any fractional shares resulting from the Consolidation in the following manner: a registered shareholders holding 0.50 or more fractional shares will be rounded up to the nearest whole share, and a registered shareholder holding less than 0.50 of a fractional share will be rounded down to the nearest whole share.

The Consolidation affected all Shareholders uniformly and it did not affect any Shareholders' percentage interest in the Company. In addition, the Consolidation did not affect any Shareholder's proportionate voting rights, subject to the treatment of fractional shares described above.

The Consolidation was subject to shareholder and TSXV approval and the effective date of the Consolidation was April 19, 2022. No name change was made in conjunction with the Consolidation.

TSX-V Acceptance of Share Consolidation

On May 12, 2022 the Company announced that the TSX-V approved a share consolidation of the outstanding capital of the Company of the Company's common shares on the basis of ten (10) pre- Consolidation common shares for one (1) post-Consolidation common share.

The Consolidation was effective May 16, 2022 and the Company did not change its name as part of the Consolidation but issued new share certificates under a new CUSIP number, 86330Y501 (ISIN: CA86330Y5011). The Company's common shares continue to trade on the Exchange under its current symbol, "SRA".

Holders of Common Shares who hold uncertificated shares (that is shares held in book-entry form and not represented by a physical share certificate), either as registered holders or beneficial owners, had their existing book-entry account(s) electronically adjusted by the Company's transfer agent or, in the

7

case of beneficial shareholders, by their brokerage firms, banks, trusts or other nominees. Such holders generally do not need to take any additional actions to exchange their pre-Consolidation common shares for post-Consolidation common shares.

Registered shareholders holding share certificates were mailed a letter of transmittal advising of the consolidation and instructing them to surrender the share certificates representing pre-Consolidation common shares for replacement certificates or a direct registration advice representing their post- Consolidation common shares. Until surrendered for exchange, each share certificate formerly representing pre-consolidation Common Shares will be deemed to represent the number of whole post- Consolidation common shares to which the holder is entitled as a result of the Consolidation.

Stria Awarded $275,000 Grant From The Quebec Government

On June 28, 2022 the Company announced it has been awarded a grant of up to $275,000 by Quebec's Ministry of Energy and Natural Resources (MERN). The grant will be used to finance a geometallurgical study of lithium-bearing spodumene pegmatites at its Pontax property, located in the Eeyou Istchee Baie-James region of Quebec. The grant award is part of the Government of Quebec's program to support mineral exploration for minerals needed for green and renewable energy technologies as outlined in its 2020-25 Plan for the Development of Critical and Strategic Minerals.

Following the exercise of the Option, the parties will form a joint venture (the "Joint Venture") with each of Cygnus and Stria holding an undivided interest of 70% and 30% respectively, with Cygnus acting as operator of the Joint Venture. Stria's interest in the Joint Venture will be free carried until Cygnus delivers a feasibility study on the property.

In consideration for the Option, Cygnus will pay Stria a cash consideration of $1 million within 10 business days following the receipt by Stria of all the required corporate and regulatory approvals to complete the Transaction. Furthermore, as a condition precedent to the Transaction, Cygnus has accepted to participate in Stria's concurrent Offering (as defined below) in the amount of $350,000. Cygnus' participation in the Offering is conditional upon Stria first obtaining all required regulatory and shareholder approvals in connection with the Transaction (as further detailed below).

The terms of the two-stage option can be summarized as follows:

First Option to Acquire A 51% Undivided Interest ("First Option")

Under the First Option, Cygnus is required to incur exploration expenditures on the Property in the amount of $4 million over a period of 18 months. Following completion of such expenditures, in order to complete the First Option, Cygnus shall pay Stria a cash amount of $2 million.

Second Option to Acquire An Additional 19% interest ("Second Option")

Under the Second Option, conditional upon the exercise of the First Option, Cygnus shall incur additional exploration expenditures in the amount of $6 million over a period of 30 months from the date of exercise of the First Option. Following completion of such expenditures, in order to complete the Second Option, Cygnus shall pay Stria an additional cash amount of $3 million. Upon the exercise of the Second Option, Cygnus shall have acquired a 70% undivided interest in the Property.

In the event Cygnus elects not to proceed with, or otherwise fails to exercise the Second Option, the parties will form the Joint Venture with Cygnus automatically transferring a 2% undivided back to Stria for a nominal consideration. Each of Cygnus and Stria shall thereafter hold an undivided Joint Venture interest of 49 % and 51 % respectively, with Stria becoming operator of the Joint Venture.

The Transaction constitutes an arm's length transaction within the meaning of the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange (the "TSXV") and constitutes a "Reviewable Transaction" in accordance with TSXV Policy 5.3 - Acquisitions and Dispositions of Non-Cash Assets, and therefore remains subject to the review and approval of the TSXV. Moreover, as the Transaction constitutes the sale of more than 50% of Stria's assets, business or undertaking, it is subject to shareholder approval. Accordingly, and as permitted by the policies of the TSXV, Stria will obtain such shareholder approval by way of written consent of shareholders holding over 50% of its issued and outstanding shares. It should be noted that there are no finders fee payable in connection with the Transaction.

The Transaction is subject to conditions customary for this type of transaction including, notably, Stria having obtained all required corporate and regulatory approvals within a delay of 60 days from the execution of the Term Sheet, failing which any party may terminate the Transaction.

Stria Announces Receipt of Shareholder Consent to the Option and Joint Venture with Cygnus Gold

On August 23, 2022, the Company announced it has obtained shareholder approval of the previously announced binding term sheet with Cygnus. As the Transaction constitutes an arm's length transaction within the meaning of the policies of the TSX-V and constitutes a "Reviewable Transaction" in accordance with TSXV Policy 5.3 - Acquisitions and Dispositions of Non-Cash Assets, Stria sought and obtained such shareholder approval by way of written consent of shareholders holding over 50% of its issued and outstanding shares.

The Transaction remains subject to conditions customary for this type of transaction including, notably, Stria having obtained all required corporate and regulatory approvals within a delay of 60 days from the execution of the Term Sheet, failing which any party may terminate the Transaction.

Following the closing of the Transaction, Stria plans to devote its resources to the exploration of the Romer property which is located in the Labrador Trough sector of Nunavik, the northern division of the Nord-du-Québec administrative region. The property straddles the junction between NTS 1:50,000- scale topographic sheets 24K-03 (Lac Géridot) and 24K-04 (Lac Thévenet), and covers portions of unpatented townships 5051, 5052 and 5151. It is bound by latitudes 58°06'30" and 58°12'30" North and longitudes 69°29'00" and 69°38'00" West. The property is an early-stage exploration project where previous prospecting programs unearthed hundreds of outcrop samples anomalous in platinum, palladium or gold, associated with reef type PGM or orogenic gold occurrences. The property also has the proper geological setting to host zinc or nickel mineral occurrences, which could be associated with currently untested VTEM anomalies.

Stria Announces Numerous Targets Identified in Area with High-Grades of Up To 2.6% Li2O on the Pontax-Lithium Property

On October 20, 2022 the Company, in partnership with Cygnus Gold Limited (ASX: CY5) (" Cygnus ") announced highly promising preliminary results from the recently completed high resolution aeromagnetics and LiDAR surveys at the Pontax Lithium Project.

Stria Announces Resource Definition Drilling Commenced and First Stage Completed

On November 7, 2022 the Company, in partnership with Cygnus Gold Limited (ASX:CY5) ("Cygnus") announced it has initiated a 10,000m drilling program at its Pontax Lithium targeting multiple outcropping spodumene zones with up to 2.6% Li 2 O. The 10,000m drill program will focus on both resource definition and step out drilling over the next six months. The initial focus of this first stage drill programme is to target down dip and along strike extents of the known high grade Pontax Central outcrop with existing known shallow, high grade intercepts of up to 2.6% Li 2 O from only 19.4m downhole. The initial focus of this first stage drill programme is to target down dip and along strike extents of the known high grade Pontax Central outcrop with existing known shallow, high grade intercepts of up to 2.6% Li 2 O at a depth of approximately 12 metres (19.4m downhole). The spodumene-bearing pegmatites at the main Pontax occurrence do outcrop on a hillcrest protruding surrounding undercover area, where exploration drilling is limited to winter operation.

Cygnus advised Stria that the initial-stage ground mapping and sampling has been completed around the main outcrop of the Pontax Project. The recently completed mapping and sampling campaign focussed on key areas identified from recent LiDAR, high definition aeromagnetics and high-resolution photomosaic. The initial results of this work have been highly encouraging leading to the discovery of new unmapped pegmatites now identified and sampled with assay results expected mid-December. Landform analysis based on LiDAR has proven effective in targeting area of potential nearly-outcropping occurrences that were entirely covered by vegetation.

On December 21, 2022, the Company announced it completed the first stage of its fall 2022, 2,028m helicopter-supported core drilling program designed to test the continuity at depth of the spodumene mineralization over the entire known strike length of the central spodumene-bearing pegmatite dyke swarm zone at the Pontax LSPD prospect.

The fall core drilling program comprised of seven (7) inclined NQ-diameter holes for a total of the 2,028m drilled (holes 975-22-026 to 975-22-032). The drill program is scheduled to resume in January 2023. Analytical results for the first set of drill core samples expedited to SGS Canada Inc. Laboratories in
