Market Overview

5

S. American salars (Chile, Bolivia, Argentina) provide ~75% of global Li supply

Lithium evaporation and recovery projects = low operating and capital costs; technologically proven; ease of design/construction

Deep salar brines may contain volumes of light metals that are orders of magnitude greater and with a higher Li content than shallow lakes

Lithium demand fueled by growth in battery industry and use in automobiles, electronics, etc.

Overall demand growing 5% per annum (with battery demand increasing over 25% annually)

Total lithium carbonate demand was ~45,000 metric tons (1997) rising to ~85,000 tonnes (2007), to ~92,000 tonnes (2008), rising to ~110,000 tonnes (2009) – predicted to increase further (some project > 200,000 metric tons by 2015 – 2020)

Chile Geopolitical Advantages

10

Low political/regulatory and permitting risk for mining projects Significantly Lower Political Risk vs. other South American countries

Chile: World's No. 1 copper producer with center-right government of Sebastian Piñera with pro-business credentials

Argentina: Soaring inflation, debt crisis, shortages of natural gas, electricity and labor, demands for higher wages, and inability to project finance

Bolivia: Recent threats by President Evo Morales to “nationalize” mining concessions; announcement that Bolivia will develop Li by itself at huge Salar de Uyuni

Venezuela: President Hugo Chavez caused panic after he threatened to nationalize the country's gold industry accusing "capitalist mafias" in the industry of destroying environment & exploiting workers

Mining represents 23.5% of GDP in Chile(1)

Over 150 year history of support for mining industry Political, economic and social stability Independent Judiciary, Parliament, Government Mining project finance, tax, royalty, capital repatriation and other corporate,

fiscal and financial advantages over other South American countries

Market and Production Strategy

11

Laguna Verde enters production from surface lake waters roughly 3-4 years from commencement of exploration

Enter market at modest production rate (target: 10,000 to 15,000 metric tons/yr. of lithium carbonate)

Seek status as secure supplier under long-term contracts

So production from all salars can be ramped up at market pricing

Create relationship with one or more large international counterparty (battery, or car electronics manufacturer, or multinational trading house):

Counterparty to provide equity funding and/or project financing to build facilities in return for provision of Lithium off-take rights or marketing arrangement

Potential for counterparty to underwrite costs of exploration, scoping, pre-feasibility and full feasibility studies in order to earn project equity

Page 12: Pan American Lithium Corp. (OTCBB: PALTF; Twitter: $PALTF) - April 2011

Pan Am Lithium Competitive Advantages

12

100% of all 11 projects owned outright – subject only to capped NSR royalties and 1% Chilean nominee in holding company

At most salars there are no adjacent or adjoining claim holders Year-round road access to all projects Senior water rights status applied for at key projects Lithium grade at Laguna Verde = 212.4 mg/liter yielding inferred

resource estimate of 512,960 metric tons lithium carbonate equivalent(1) as per NI 43-101 compliant Technical Report

No required drilling /no hydrology determination necessary at Laguna Verde surface lake

Potential to expand resource at Laguna Verde through exploration Pan American Lithium now commencing scoping, pre-feasibility and

process design at Laguna Verde Exploration commencing at several other key salars to develop initial

resources numbers and expand resource base
