May 2nd, 2016 /Vancouver, Canada – Pacific North West Capital Corp. (“PFN”, the “Company”) (TSX.V: PFN; Frankfurt: P7J.F; OTCQX: PAWEF announces that the company’s Chairmen and CEO, Harry Barr, and Principle Consulting Geologist of the PGM Division, Dr. Bill Stone have been asked to sit on discussion panels at the upcoming 5th Annual Cleantech & Technology Metals Summit – Invest in the Cleantech Revolution, on May 10-11th in Toronto, Ontario (www.CTMS2016.com).

The discussion panels will be on Green Energy Metals (Lithium) and PGM’s. The summit is focused on extending the knowledge and understanding the supply and demand of the “cleantech” global economy. InvestorIntel will host over a dozen expert panels and speakers from public market companies around the world. The panels will address investors and cleantech funds who invest in companies that explore and develop 21st century technology metals.

Management previously announced (April 6th, 2016, April 14th, 2016, April 21st, 2016, April 25th, 2016) that PFN has developed a Lithium and Rare Earth Division. The Company’s management team has added an additional “Green Metal” to its existing Platinum group metals (PGM’s) division. These new age metals, Lithium, PGM’s and Rare Earths, have robust macro trends with surging demands and limited supply. Going forward, this new division will explore for the minerals needed to fuel the demand for energy storage and other core 21st Century Technologies.

About The Company’s Lithium Division

The company’s new Lithium Division will focus on the acquisition, exploration and development of Lithium Projects in Canada. In the United States the company will use its wholly owned U.S.A subsidiary to acquire and develop projects in active mining camps in Nevada, Arizona and California.

The company is focusing on hard rock lithium mineralization potential of southeastern Manitoba (PFN April 21st, 2016 news release) in the vicinity of the Tanco Mine Site, North America’s richest and longest operating hard rock mine for tantalum, lithium and cesium. Recently the company optioned a Lithium Brine Project (PFN April 25th, 2016 News Release)

Lithium and Platinum group metal prices have improved dramatically in recent months. Lithium supplies remain in deficit relative to their demand. Both metals groups are used for the expanding worldwide automobile industry (conventional and electric). In the case of PGM’s, demand is increasing for autocatalysts, a key component for reducing toxic emissions for automotive, gasoline and diesel engines. In regards to Lithium, there is an ever increasing demand for batteries in cellphones, laptops, electric cars, solar storage, wireless charging and renewable energy products.

  3. 7.Results for the most recent Metallurgical Testwork Study are summarized below:

– Prepared by Tetra Tech (Wardrop)

– High Confidence: Measured plus Indicated = 72% of total

– Reported on PdEq basis: Pd=40% & Pt=20% of the payable metals

– Pd to Pt ratio = 2.5:1; Cu to Ni ratio = 3:1

– High Grade potential, particularly in the north part of River Valley deposit

– Resources under evaluation for development potential as open pit mining operation
