(CSE: CRUZ) (OTCID: BKTPF) (WKN: A40YSN) ("Cruz" or the "Company") is pleased to announce it has renewed its lithium claims in Nevada which makes up its 4,938 acre Solar Lithium Project directly bordering American Lithium Corp.'s TLC project (See map below).

James Nelson, President of Cruz, stated, "With the renewal of our Solar lithium claims in Nevada, Cruz maintains a significant foothold in a region that continues to attract global attention for its battery metals potential. The lithium market is showing renewed strength, with prices rebounding sharply from recent lows to near their highest levels of the year, strengthening the outlook for our projects and creating significant opportunities for our shareholders. Additionally, our neighbours American Lithium recently closed a $9.4 million financing which is a very positive development for the region. Having a well-funded neighbor highlights the growing interest and investment in Nevada's lithium sector. This not only validates the potential of the area but also underscores the strategic value of Cruz Battery Metals' claims, as we continue to advance our projects alongside major players in the space. With renewed claims in hand, Cruz is now evaluating future work programs and advancing strategic plans to unlock the value of our assets and position ourselves for sustained growth."
