Partnership with POSCO 6 A blue chip multinational company based in South Korea One of the world’s largest steel producers, with operations in 12 countries Publicly - listed on the NYSE with an equity market cap of $ 22 Bn and investment grade credit ratings Developer and owner of proprietary technology for extracting lithium and other chemicals from salt brine without the reliance on solar evaporation ponds Strategic partner and largest individual shareholder of Li 3 Signed strategic partnership with Li 3 in 2012 Invested $ 18 MM in two equity tranche : $ 10 MM in 2011 and $ 8 MM in 2012 Represented by SungWon Lee, Phd on Li 3 ’s board of directors Owns 25 . 4 % of Li 3 ’s outstanding shares and 65 % of its warrants and options Built and tested a pilot plant in Chile Located near the the Salar de Maricunga ; Constructed and operated at POSCO’s sole expense In March 2013 , POSCO announced pilot plant test results on processing of Maricunga brine* Demonstrated lithium recoveries of approximately 80 % versus typical recoveries of 40 - 50 % for conventional solar evaporation* Achieved lithium carbonate end product in 8 hours versus industry average of 12 months typical of conventional solar evaporation* Non dependent on climate conditions, self contained and eliminates the use of evaporation ponds* * Source: BN Americas, March 12, 2013

Alternative Lithium Extraction Methods For extracting lithium from salt brines, the conventional approach uses natural solar evaporation Typical processing time of 12 - 18 months for extraction of lithium with typical recoveries of 40 - 50% Requires a large land footprint Solar evaporation ponds represent one of the largest capital expenditures for the project Evaporation and production rates are sensitive to elevation and climate conditions POSCO’s proprietary technology offers several potential advantages for extracting lithium from salt brine* Eliminates the use of evaporation ponds, thereby reducing capital requirements, time to market, required land footprint, and variability of production rates and quality Lowers processing times (typically 8 hours), thereby reducing working capital requirements and time to market Higher lithium recoveries (typically 70 - 80%), thereby enabling faster and greater recovery of lithium from the same brine resource 7 * Source: Li3 management, BN Americas article dated March 12, 2013

8 Transaction Rationale Li 3 seeks to recapitalize the company, strengthen its balance sheet in order to advance the development of its projects and become a low cost lithium producer It is anticipated that transaction proceeds will be used to repay Li 3 short - term debt and for Li 3 acquisition payments, working capital, and development of its lithium projects in Chile Implement a NI 43 - 101 work program for the SLM Cocina asset Demonstrate POSCO Technology in Chile Test Facility Advance both assets (Maricunga & Cocina) to Feasibility Study stage and commercial scale Pursue possible joint venture opportunities in Maricunga Following the Merger, Li 3 Energy Corp . will apply for a listing on the TSX Venture Exchange, which if successful, could broaden institutional investor base and research coverage The transaction will position Li 3 Energy Corp . as an emerging producer and a consolidator in the lithium industry Li 3 believes that many of the current junior lithium projects currently being developed will fail due to lack of funding Consolidation in the industry has begun, with two mergers completed in the last 12 months (Galaxy acquisition of Lithium One and Chengdu Tianqi Industry acquisition of Talison)

20 With demand growing, leading global companies are partnering in order to secure a stable, steady and secure secondary source of lithium Strategic Interest Note: Information compiled from public sources; April 2013 Numerous countries deem lithium as a strategic metal

Maricunga Project Highlights 21 Purchased 60 % of Maricunga from Sociedades de Minerales LITIO 1 a 6 de la Sierra Hoyada de Maricunga, a group of private companies : Comprised of six mining concessions, covering a total area of 1438 hectares ; Close to strategic mining epicenters (Copiapo and El Salvador) ; Infrastructure (road, port and Power) in place to support development ; Operative throughout the year . Located in the northeast section of the Salar de Maricunga in Region III of Atacama in northern Chile : Situated at an elevation of 3 , 760 m . a . s . l . Salar is listed as the 7 th largest lithium brine resource at 200 , 000 tonnes lithium, according to industry sources ; Previous studies (CORFO) indicate Maricunga would have a production cost lower than Salar de Hombre Muerto and slightly higher than Salar de Atacama due to net evaporation . In May 2013 , signumBOX, a leading, independent resource sector market analysis and research firm, ranked Li 3 ’s Maricunga : As 4 th top lithium project in the world out of 47 other brine salars ; Ranked behind 3 Argentina projects ; Highest ranked undeveloped lithium project in Chile ; Maricunga has 2 nd highest quality deposit of Li in Chile (After Atacama) ; Contains sodium chloride and other potassium salts as by - products ; Argentinean brines have lower Li and K concentrations ;

Maricunga Project Resource 22 In December 2011 , Li 3 completed a $ 8 MM Phase One Exploration and Development Program A total of 431 samples were taken during the drilling and were submitted to the University of Antofagasta in Antofagasta, Chile for analysis Excellent brine chemistry High concentration of Li ( 1 . 25 g/L) and a Mg/Li ratio ( 6 . 63 ) permitting lithium recovery Significant potential co - products , including boron Based on the results from Li 3 ’s Phase One Exploration and Development Program, the brine chemistry of the Salar de Maricunga compares favorable to that of other salars in Chile and Argentina

The April 2012 NI 43 - 101 Compliant Measured Resource Report includes the following conclusions and recommendations : “Results of airlift testing during the RC exploration drilling program and pumping tests on test trenches indicate that future brine production can be achieved through a combination of production wells and open trenches” “The analyses of brine chemistry indicate that the brine is amenable to lithium and potash recovery through conventional technology” “It is believed that through the application of proprietary technology developed by Li 3 ’s strategic partners, lithium recovery from the Maricunga brine can be significantly enhanced and may range from 45 percent to more than 70 percent” “It is the recommendation of the authors that a full feasibility study be completed for the Project” Maricunga Project Resource (cont’d) In April 2012 , Hains Technology & Associates completed a NI 43 - 101 Compliant Measured Resource Report with the following lithium and potassium resources (as compounds) estimated at : 23

Maricunga Development Plans 24 In March 2013 , Li 3 received a DIA (environmental permit) that allows it to move towards a Feasibility study Management plans further exploration work and expenditures to complete a Feasibility Study for the Maricunga and SLM Cocina properties As part of the feasibility study work plan, Li 3 plans to continue working with POSCO in order to evaluate the use of its proprietary processing technology as an alternative to solar evaporation methods

Chilean Mining Law and Government Permit Updates 29 In Chile, lithium is considered “strategic” and therefore under current law is not exploitable under existing current mining concessions Li 3 formed a Consortium for the purpose of participating in the Chilean CEOL Auction consisting of POSCO, Mitsui, Daewoo International and Li 3 September 14 , 2012 : As required by the rules of the CEOL Auction, Li 3 submitted its sealed bid September 24 , 2012 : The Chilean Government notified Li 3 that the bid was won by SQM SQM Submitted a $ 40 M+ bid Li 3 Consortium submitted a $ 17 M+ bid Errazuris (Samsung as Backer) submitted a $ 6 MM+ bid September 27 , 2012 : Li 3 submitted a writ seeking to disqualify the SQM bid due to outstanding litigation (CEOL Rules clearly stated that no bidder would have any outstanding litigation with the State of Chile) October 1 , 2012 : Chilean Government, rescinded the SQM bid and declared the entire CEOL process invalid October 5 , 2012 : Li 3 filed formal request based upon the Rules established by the Ministry of Mining which stated it could disqualify any bidder due to not meeting the requirements, but it did not state the Government could declare the entire process invalid, thereby the CEOL should be awarded to the second highest bidder January 6 , 2013 : Li 3 submitted a letter to the Chilean Comptroller requesting to review the CEOL process . This is deemed the last administrative recourse before pursuing judicial remedies . Li 3 continues to evaluate strategies that could allow it to exploit lithium at the Maricunga Project
