Panthera Signs Letter of Intent to Acquire the Laguna Caro Lithium Property

Panthera Exploration Inc. (the "Company") (PNX-TSX.V; PNXLF-OTC; OAY-Frankfurt) is pleased to announce that it has executed a binding Letter of Intent (LOI) to acquire the Salar de la Laguna Caro property in the western part of Salta Province, Argentina. A payment of US$10,000 was made on execution of the LOI.

The property consists of two exploration concessions totaling 3000 ha covering a significant portion of the Salar de la Laguna Caro which Panthera believes has potential to host a lithium bearing, saline brine deposit.

Terms of the LOI provide for an initial 60 day standstill period, during which the Company will conduct a due diligence review of the project. If satisfactory, the Company may elect to negotiate and execute a definitive Option to Purchase Agreement to acquire a 100% interest in the property by making payments comprised of: US$50,000 on signing; US$90,000 after 6 months; and further escalating payments over a 30 month period for an aggregate US$900,000. The vendor will retain a 1% sales royalty which can be purchased by the Company at any time for US$1.0 million.
