Battery X Metals Inc Stock Price, News & Analysis

Battery X Metals (BATXF) has entered into a strategic joint venture with TerraDX to launch AI-powered exploration for battery metals in Nevada. The binding MOU, effective April 16, 2025, establishes a 50/50 joint venture framework focused on discovering lithium, cobalt, graphite, and other battery metals.

The venture will leverage TerraDX's proprietary AI model to analyze geological datasets and identify high-probability mineral targets. Initial budgets are estimated at $50,000-$100,000 for claims acquisition and another $50,000-$100,000 for early-stage exploration activities.

The partnership aligns with Battery X Metals' 360° strategy across the battery metals sector, which includes exploration, recovery technologies development, and battery lifespan extension. Nevada was selected for hosting approximately 85% of U.S. known lithium deposits and being the sole domestic lithium producer in 2023.

Battery X Metals (BATXF) has filed two provisional patent applications with the USPTO for its lithium-ion battery rebalancing technology. The first patent addresses battery cell imbalance issues through smart monitoring and adjustment systems, while the second introduces a simplified two-wire charging and voltage detection method.

The company's technology has been validated by the National Research Council of Canada, demonstrating its ability to recover nearly all capacity lost due to cell imbalance. A next-generation rebalancing unit, Prototype 2.0, is under development with enhanced capabilities, targeted for completion by end of April 2025.

The company has rebranded its wholly-owned subsidiary to Battery X Rebalancing Technologies Inc. This technology addresses a growing market need, as nearly 40 million electric, plug-in hybrid, and hybrid vehicles worldwide are projected to be out of warranty by 2031, facing battery degradation and replacement challenges.

Battery X Metals (BATXF) has announced two strategic developments: the formation of a new wholly-owned subsidiary, Battery X Discoveries Inc., and the expansion of its mineral claims portfolio in Quebec.

The newly formed subsidiary, established on April 3, 2025, will focus on identifying, acquiring, and advancing critical battery metal exploration across North America. The initiative aims to secure essential battery materials including lithium, cobalt, graphite, nickel, and manganese to support North American supply chains.

Additionally, on April 9, 2025, the company amended its January 11, 2024 agreement with 1303812 B.C. to acquire 39 additional mineral claims near its Reservoir Dozois Project in Abitibi, Quebec. These claims were originally omitted from the initial agreement and were transferred at no additional cost, bringing the total number of active mineral claims to 47.

Battery X Metals (BATXF) has announced significant breakthroughs in graphite recovery from lithium-ion batteries through laboratory tests conducted with a Global Top 20 University. The company achieved a 97% graphite recovery rate, a substantial improvement from previous ~40% recovery rates using solvent pre-washing methods.

Key improvements include:

• Increased graphite purity to ~69% (up from 55-59%)
• Reduced flotation time to 5-7 minutes (down from 13-19 minutes)
• Enhanced separation efficiency with minimal metal oxide contamination

The tests were conducted using unoxidized 500g NMC-dominant black mass samples with Denver Cell flotation devices. The company's eco-friendly flotation process demonstrated superior performance compared to conventional methods, particularly in concentrate and tailings management. Battery X Metals is now focusing on further process refinements to maximize both graphite and metal oxide recovery.

Battery X Metals (CSE:BATX)(OTCQB:BATXF) has announced a strategic marketing partnership with bullVestor Medien GmbH to enhance its visibility in the European investment community. The three-month engagement, beginning April 4, 2025, will focus on implementing native advertising campaigns across premium financial networks.

The company will invest €190,000 (approximately CAD $295,000) in this marketing initiative, with the full payment due at the campaign's start. BullVestor, operating at arm's length from Battery X Metals, will oversee strategic planning, campaign implementation, and results reporting. No stock options are included in the agreement, and bullVestor currently holds no shares or securities in the company.

Battery X Metals (OTCQB:BATXF) has completed the acquisition of the remaining 51% stake in Li-ion Battery Renewable Technologies Inc. (LIBRT) on March 28, 2025, through the issuance of 3,030,296 common shares. This follows their initial 49% acquisition in 2024.

LIBRT has achieved significant milestones, including technology development progress, strengthening partnerships with Beijing Pengneng Science & Technology, and advancing their Diagnostic and Rebalancing Machine Prototype 2.0, set for April 2025 delivery. The company has also initiated provisional patent filings for its proprietary technology.

Of the issued shares, 1,818,176 shares allocated to LIBRT management are subject to a 12-month voluntary release escrow, while 1,212,120 shares have no restrictions. The acquisition aligns with Battery X Metals' strategy of developing a vertically integrated battery supply chain through three core verticals: critical battery metal exploration, material recovery technologies, and battery diagnostics solutions.

Battery X Metals (OTCQB:BATXF) has announced the exercise of its call right to acquire the remaining 51% of Li-ion Battery Renewable Technologies Inc. (LIBRT), following its initial 49% stake acquired in 2024. The acquisition involves approximately 3,030,296 common shares of Battery X Metals.

Of these shares, 1,818,176 will be subject to a 12-month voluntary release escrow on a pro rata basis, while 1,212,120 shares will have no restrictions. LIBRT has achieved significant milestones, including strengthening its partnership with Beijing Pengneng Science & Technology and advancing the development of its Diagnostic and Rebalancing Machine Prototype 2.0, scheduled for delivery in April 2025.
